Sorry that you’re dealing with it too, but thanks for your honesty and openness. It made me feel a little less weird and broken to remember I’m not the only one fighting this stuff.

Yowza. This hits close to home. Thursday last week I had my first full blown anxiety attack in years. Hit like lightning, I didn’t see it coming, and I was over the edge before I had a chance to try to head it off. Still trying to tease out if it was work, health, or just everything else.

Dude. Why you gotta do that to me???

Didn’t Dame Lillard have an Achilles tear in round one? Crazy amount of Achilles injuries this season. Hate to see it.

Oh, this is good. That guitar sound takes me back. Feels like the Cranberries smashed together with Juliana Hatfield.

My college aged daughter introduced me to the chain. Rebels or something like that? It’ll definitely power a road trip.

She’s doing a summer internship in Agriculture and Data Science and I’d love for her to have a more reliable ride. Hate your Tesla now and wanna stick it to Musk? Give it to a smart, progressive young woman who is determined to save the world. AND get a sweet ride in return!

My daughter’s hippy bumper sticker covered ‘97 Jeep Grand Cherokee. “Well behaved women seldom make history” bumper sticker included.

Anyone looking to trade in their Tesla AND irritate Elon Musk, my college aged daughter studying sociology and data science could really use a more reliable ride than her ‘97 Jeep. Straight trade and I promise she’ll cover it with stickers that will make Musk cry.

Is the Cincinnati Bengals organization capable of putting a competitive team together around Joe Burrow or is he pulling a Carson Palmer and requesting a trade eventually?

My better half, the inimitable Katie Darby Mullins (@katiedarbymullins.bsky.social), is doing a thing and bringing her remarkable capacity for love and joy to the interwebs. She’s starting a new online zine for people who love, without shame, creative stuff that others might think uncool.

Absolutely amazing and I owe you big time. It was driving me absolutely crazy.

Anyone watching the Eagles-Packers game recognize the song playing out into the last commercial break? They just played two bars, no lyrics. Watching live and can’t rewind. Driving me crazy. Thinking it was a late 80s song.

Thank you, Joe. Keep holding that lantern of truth high and keep fighting the good fight. We need that.

Same at our place, but we’ve been living in Star Trek since early November. When you have trouble imagining a better future, sometimes it helps to have had someone else imagine it for you.

Down in Texas visiting family and was perusing my father-in-law’s vinyl collection to find Byrne’s 1981 album with Brian Eno, “My “Life in the Bush of Ghosts.” I’ve not heard it, but I know what I’m listening to tomorrow.

I’m glad you’re over here, Joe. I’ve appreciated watching you wrestle with your beliefs and your past to try to become the best version of yourself. You were one of the few things still worthwhile on X. I couldn’t stay there, but I’m thrilled to see your here trying to pull us together.

All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.

God, that song still wrecks me.

Trying to think of something witty or profound to say as a first skeet. Really? That’s what they call these things?

I think I may have been overthinking this.
