Why can’t I shake this feeling that I have probably had covid at some point in the last six months even though I have had zero positive tests?

One of my favourite Thanksgiving sitcom episodes πŸ¦ƒπŸ“Ί
Frasier, "A Lilith Thanksgiving", aired November 26, 1996

Lilith: "Frasier, if you over-analyze every detail, you will rob us of the joy of the moment. It will be our wedding night all over again."

Closing out your day with another taste of micro fiction, and this one reads a bit like a promise.

Treat yourself to the release of expectations. This is "My mother, myself" by Bonnie Meekums.

Update: Still listening to "Invisible Touch." I don't know what it is, but this song seems to have...something special about it.

Inadvertently heard "Invisible Touch" this morning, so this is now my Thursday.

I planned to reply with a Julie Roberts from Pretty Woman gif where she says, "Big mistake...huge!" but I couldn't get it to copy. Please imagine it.

Are we sure Samuel Alito had nothing to do with this?

The music video is this beautiful Southern Gothic text. It's also 6 minutes long. Amazing.

Surely someone has written an academic essay about "Fancy," right?

I've been thinking about Reba McEntire a lot lately. She strikes me as the patron saint of all single white southern mothers in the 80s and 90s. That is all.

Has anyone here developed a Taylor Swift college-level course? If so, I want suggestions, especially secondary sources for student reading material.
