They could have thought this through a bit better, lol

I had a boss who called himself a job creator. He refused to create a budget, and then fired me, the manager. I told him he'd go out of business within 3 months and it didn't even take 30 days, so I was being optimistic.

This and I also recently rediscovered the calming effects of running warm water over my hands while rubbing my hands together.

I often brought up the disparity between providing housing for the houseless vs spending money clearing camps, arresting ppl, incarcerating ppl, etc.

Everything costs, not just helping. Hurting is actually more expensive. It's never about money spent, but about who gets it.

People on the East Coast can call a West Coast friend late at night when they're angry and need to talk. We West Coast folks just have to stay mad in bed and stew.

Don't worry. We will stress you out on your way to work since we didn't sleep!

He ousted all the Russian diplomats and issued sanctions. People also were arrested, charged and served time.

What they think he should have done is probably something that was outside his power to do.

It really says something when the day in which I was most blocked by people on the left is when I produced evidence that Obama took action after Russia interfered in the election.

I have very progressive views as a scholar of Nordic Studies but I also deal in fact. That should not upset people.

The family who owns La Croix pronounces it "luh croy", so no matter how fancy you want your fruit fart seltzer to sound, it aint "luh kwah." I will concede that the can is cool looking.

Rambler is better though.

He really loves reminding everyone he's mixed race despite it having nothing to do with what he's saying. As a mixed race Black woman, he's not invited to brunch or the cookout.

Can you believe Another Roadside Attraction is all checked out at my local libraries? Even the ebooks?

I just haven't read it and it sounds funny to me. I enjoy Tom Robbins.

Ok, I got all my vegan gelatin supplies and I'm several layers in. The trick was using plain gelatin, using water enhancers and natural food coloring and coconut whipped cream for the cloudy layers.

I haven't eaten gelatin since the 90's! This version is messy but I'm already so far in...

One of my students won an award for her presentation about how using ChatGPT results in skills loss.

Some students actually do go to college to learn and grow, not just make it through to land a job they might not have prepared for.

I didn't look into Biden but Obama absolutely addressed this and folks on the left need to stop this BS of blaming every right wing evil on Democrats. A simple Google search would have easily refuted this claim.

Stop doing the devil's work for him.

I ordered vegan gelatin mixes and the delivery date is pushed back but I'm making a mold for Tuesday! Whole Foods didn't have mixes. It seemed unlikely that Berkeley Bowl will. Maybe Sprouts?

I'm not looking for unflavored. I'm making a layered gelatin mold for a Midwestern potluck.
