Can confirm on the Iroshizuku line! I really love Tsuki-yo and Kon-peki

He's a good example of the fact that attending an Ivy doesn't mean you'll actually learn anything there

He’ll probably establish it himself, like his “Board of Peace” that’s supposed to be better than the UN

This is delightful!

Post-blizzard basking

Get that woman some snowshoes!

Had to send this along to my brother and sister-in-law who have a cat named Reuben (and one named Babka)

I was surprised at the Catholic undergrads at the Catholic university I went to for my English MA in the late 90s who were unfamiliar with St. Sebastian!

I did the Miralax-Gatorade prep and it was mostly boring, really.

Also "functions like a real medical practice," similarly to how kids pretending to be doctors "function like a real medical practice"

The more conservative and younger Seth Moulton is his challenger

Phooey!

Could Italy arrest ICE and drop them off at the Hague for crimes against humanity? (I know it's a different division from the thugs committing extrajudicial killings but that would be kind of amazing if Italy pulled that off.)

I'm still mad at Martha Coakley for the political malpractice she committed in losing that election to Brown

I'm so sorry. Hoping that respite care gets to you

How a billionaire with interests in Greenland encouraged Trump to acquire the territory US president’s friend Ronald Lauder – who first proposed Arctic expansion – is now making deals in the island

Also, fyi, Ronald Lauder is pushing Trump on Greenland. Lauder companies include Aveda, Le Labo, Origins, and the Ordinary, so boycotting them is a good idea. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I'm not a gourmande girlie, but to reinforce the l'Occitane idea, the Almond Shower Oil line is ridiculously good.

I have a legendarily terrible sense of direction which makes it even worse. One time, pre-GPS and during the Big Dig, I tried to get to Newton from Harvard Square and ended up at Logan. But then once I was there I knew how to get where I wanted to go!

A dilute tortie cat lies on top of a dusting cloth-covered radiator

The kitchen radiator was recently serviced and now Tallulah has a new heated bed

I'm guessing you've set up a search with alerts if they show up on eBay, yes?

Most *white* Americans. Most minorities in America definitely have a good idea how dangerous it is.

Years ago one of my roommates brought an iRobot Scooba home for a robotics class project and it was amazing at cleaning the trashed kitchen floors after a party. We asked if she really needed to return it at the end of the semester

He looks delightfully imperious!

I'm surprised no one's told Trump the "Kennedy curse" might boomerang to him by adding his name to a center with "Memorial" in the title

A simple brass chanukiah lit for the first night in front of a window

Lit candles and bonus photo of Tallulah the dilute tortie playing with her Chanukah toy/distraction from flame.

You might be able to find something among women's sweater blazers (& coordinating pants) if you're willing and able to do that. (They exist for men, just not as common.) Jersey is actually the construction of the fabric; it's knit, not woven, but it can be any fiber. www.talbots.com/sweater-blaz...

Maybe they’re trying to destroy every “liberal” studio from the inside so the only ones left are those that make Hallmark Christmas movies and the “Left Behind” series. (That seems like an awful lot of forethought for them, though)
