I was listening to an old Joan Didion interview while doing the dishes. They stated talking about the recent riots, political instability, the distancing between the People and the Parties, and I was trying to figure out when this interview was from.

1992, but may as well have been yesterday.

I've logged strength training workouts for 15 weeks on RYSE.io

I don't think I've ever done anything for 15 weeks before.

Small dog sitting next to an even smaller blue Lowe's bucket.

Lowe's has mini buckets! Smoky is insulted I used her for scale in lieu of a banana.

I have 832 notifications on Discord.

I think I should delete and start over.

It's so humid I'm using a plant drip tray as a coaster. #azwx

I just added 🌟 so 💥 many 😶‍🌫️ emojis 🔥 to a newsletter at work.

Yes, they make the content more visually appealing and helps break up blocks or text, but I really want to know what my 10th grade English teacher would think about 👉 all 🌛 these 🫆 random 🧽 things in a business document.

HE DOESN'T KNOW WHO JULIA CHILD IS 💀💀💀💀💀💀

He just said he feels like a Twitch streamer and loves the conversation in the chat.

This is the best!

A recent grad is leading a virtual gardening workshop, showcasing rooting tips he learned on TikTok. The majority of us on chat are exchanging crone gardening advice and cheering him on.

This job is so darn wholesome and I love it.

AI headshots are taking over at work and it's beyond unsettling. Uncanny Silicon Valley.

Everyone remembers their first Long Wongs.

I woke up to rain and my phone is now Korean. What kind of trouble did I get into last night?

We went to the Home and Garden Show and all we got was whiskey.

@thejonconn.bsky.social continues earning Husband Points at an exponential rate.

So I guess we'll be okay! 🖖

All I've got left is faith of the heart.

Don't be wary of those who embroider because they repeatedly stab things, but that they do so with *PRECISION*

I got an embroidery kit to try it out and I LOVE IT! My fingers are sore, but I got over the "I'm terrible at this so I hate it!" and am now at the "YAY!" phase of learning a new hobby!

Okay, maybe that wasn't the worst experiment ever. Sure, my hands reek of fragrance oil, my soap bars look like they endured an earthquake, and there's soap all over my kitchen.... But it is just soap.

Standing in my bathroom, watching flakes of soap fly by, the roar of my hair dryer in my ears, and I thought, "maybe I shouldn't have tried making soap for the first time tonight."

I'm making melt and pour soap for the first time and there is So. Much. Math.

I thought I picked the east method to start with.

Whoever said they never use algebra as an adult is obviously not a crafter.

Doom Style.

I meant to say Doom Pile, but I'm keeping it Doom Style.

"Where's my phone? Oh! Under the tortilla!"

@thejonconn.bsky.social: "I think that's the most Mexican thing you've ever said and it wasn't even in Spanish."

A straight dude in r/handbags and spelled it "tachy" instead of "tacky" and if that isn't the most precious thing....

Scientists solve centuries-old mystery of how a cucumber explosively squirts its seeds | CNN Squirting cucumbers blast their seeds over distances hundreds of times their length, and now scientists say they have found the secret to how the plants do it.

Squirting cucumbers.

So that's a thing.

I was expecting the Spanish Inquisition.

I never expected the Telenovela-level Family Drama.

Ay que la chingada.....

YouTube video by Abby Cox Everything You Think You Know About Thanksgiving is Wrong

I love everything Abby Cox, and now I have more interesting points to talk about with my Canadian co-workers on American vs Canadian Thanksgiving.

tl;dr capitalism and Philadelphia

I am still looking for Solitaire by snarkypants.

That's the hardest part - I know the title and author, but they decided to take it down and I never thought I'd need a hard copy because I didn't realize the dystopia was already afoot in 2008.

Oh, sweet little Stephanie past.
