Or they are weirdos and I can't believe she's okay with his super controlling, micromanaging, workaholic nonsense.

Or in a call center with a bunch of twenty year olds sleeping with each other, breaking up, squabbling about things, moving in and out to such a degree that you want to scream. And management chose to participate in the chaos instead of actively enforcing policies against it. Just ugh.

Workplace romances are the biggest pain in real life and I can't with them as a result. Billionaire stories are stupid and boring because the author throws money at problems instead of working them out. I've never seen a story that showed a billionaire giving up money to be with someone.

That's just caramel eaten with a spoon.

It was an honor to help get the most fabulous whistles for people. Anything to improve morale!

That is the most amazing gold filament I've seen. Godspeed and fair sailing. Gold whistles for the win!

Bling is more rare but rainbow is always appreciated.

Oh I love Holy Land stuff, thank you for the suggestion. I'll see if I can get my hands on it.

I only really make pickles when I want them or Dad whines. I need to see if I can figure out a good mixed veggie pickle as I'm likely to nibble on those when I do the cheese and sausage midweek dinners.

I only make bread and butter pickles just for my dad. I'm not that fond of them but he's a real fan. Anything sweeter is wrong to my taste. I'd rather have the strong sour and salty ones instead.

Bread and butter pickle relish is an excellent variation but you frequently have to make it if you can find bread and butter pickles. Dad makes those and then tells stories about his mom. It's great.

My dad only makes tuna fish sandwiches with miracle whip and dill. Which I quite like to my spouse's dismay.

The local Mexican bakery has a habit of offering tiramisu with other flavors from various fancy coffee drinks. Almond, mocha and caramel are the most popular. Playing with flavors is a super fun part of baking.

I suspect they're using the 100 miles from an international airport nonsense that popped up after 9/11. Unfortunately, we do have one of those.

I'm not sure that would stop them. Just feels weird.

Wonder which rich Republican donor wants to own a hospital or that hospital in particular? That seems to be the playbook or they're wanting to shut down the biggest hospital in Minneapolis for a long while to break us.

Gunsmith Cats

Which is so ridiculous.

Stuffing for both. Minnesota. German and Polish backgrounds, mostly blue collar union jobs, if that would help.

Doesn't hammer on metal on anvil sound different than just hammer on anvil? Does iron sound different than steel?

A different recipe for enrichment in your enclosure reasons.

Last musical I saw with my elderly dad. He thought he'd hate it but ended up loving the show.

White Christmas!

It makes total sense but you can see the why scaffolding holding up the story when Lois first introduces it. It's rather remarkable.

It was kinda amazing how many people developed fast-penta allergies or at least threatened them. You can see the author writing themselves out of a corner with that one.

Oh I like these. They look so pretty!

Watching you problem-solve /noodle around is totally worth the popcorn I just made.

My gothic soul is happy. So dark.

World's Smallest Terrorist Organization

It's just so helpful to my worldview right now to see someone being kind. I adore those sub threads but the kindness you show is the real star.

You are the absolute best evangelist for getting Rahaeli's anecdotal preventative for COVID shot side effects into the wild. Thank you for doing this.
