Bike Soup and Pie-son

IU sports group chat with my dad and aunt. Don't know if they hate these players because of their names, or their looks, or just because they play for Purdue.

I love that my daughter loves to sing. I really do. But she sings and sings and SIIIIINNNGGS so loud. And it's always made up songs. And she won't go do it in her room or anything. And if anyone tells her to stop she will for 10 seconds and then start right back up.

To he'll with it.

DVD cover for movie called Four Kids and It, featuring Paula Patton, Matthew Goode, with Russell Brand, and Michael Caine. Theres a family of 6 on a beach and an old school safari hunter type guy and in the foreground like he's trying to jump out of the case at you is a weird ugly hairy creature.

Never skip trap day

Me: Well, I don't think that's gonna happen. I'm getting a little too old for new babies.

Her: No you're not. Just get a new girlfriend, do the things, then have a baby! 😊

8 year old asking me about divorce.
Her: will you get a girlfriend?
Me: (Trying to be delicate) Not right away, but maybe after....
Her: Because I want a baby sister.

I do not want a "starter kit" to wipe my ass.

Insisting that I can penetrate the forcefield by moving slowly until all the kids shout "go home worm boy!"

Me too. But that's because I ride tandem with Shaggy 2 Dope.

Hey Dudes instead of Skechers because I've got style.

Style is gay.

Calls himself a real American then puts the period outside of the quotation marks? Nice try.

Years ago I was suspended on Twitter for inviting Marco Rubio to swallow ten D batteries, which I don’t see how it could be a threat; he and I were not even in the same room and I have at most six D batteries on hand

This literally made me say "oh fuck" out loud at work because I realized I still haven't done my health insurance stuff.

Making sure to eat at the table helps. Including dessert. Just have to get past a few days of whining about TV. My kids are also getting better about getting ready quick in the morning if needed, so less pressure for early bed so they get up on time.

We've been doing a little better lately, but it is so hard. We don't get home until after 5. Then I have to walk the dog. Then try to get dinner on the table by 630, then in bed to read by 730 so lights are out by 8. Gotta plan, but also be flexible. But not TOO flexible.

I think they're fairly easy to understand, though not as quick as the old letter grades for subjects. But I also have an Ed background.

What I often wonder is how many data points they use to make these assessments.

It is a fun way to mark a part of my life. 15 years ago I got off a jet at LAX after living in Korea for a year. I don't remember if I got my phone my first day there or not until the second. Then I spent a month getting drunk with strangers around the country.

The copy here is an all-time example of NY Times passive voice. Matt Gaetz has no agency here.

Even in the image, look at the phrase "left vulnerable to exploitation." Who exploited her?

I think it's also really gross how this is framed through the lens of a political scandal and not a politician abusing his power and raping a teenager.

Got a text today letting me know that I've been with the same cell phone carrier for 15 years. I don't know how I feel about this.

Actually, I think breve is what you do after holding a double whole note.

I am torn because people are saying it was in direct reference to an article on Johnny Cash, which feels different from making that joke about some random NYT article or whatever.

But, in the end, it's a 72 hour ban so...get over it?

That's one I was aware of, too. I remember when my brother was little, around 5, he would get warts on his hands and my dad read somewhere to rub potato on them and bury the potato during the full moon. He didn't really believe it, but did it anyway because there seemed to be no other solution lol

I don’t want to talk about the fact that Michael Wolff once wronged me. It’s water under the bridge, stuff happens. I wish nothing but the best to the secret advisor to a convicted sex trafficker and paedophile
