Today I learned that the word malign can be used as an adjective. I don’t like it, but it’s correct.

It’s the guns

Thought of the day: Ice cream shops should sell Lactaid by the pill.

A character in one of the Lemony Snicket books says, “Wicked people never have time for reading. It’s one of the reasons for their wickedness,” and I can’t help noticing that many of the most sinister figures in public life are vocal about never reading.

We finished watch The Sopranos tonight and that deserves a meme.

All this business I am reading about social security is nonsense. My mom died on 2/18. My dad got a letter yesterday informing him her benefits were ending and he had to repay the February payment because they don’t give a payment in the month someone dies. They know where every dollar is.

It is February 28 tomorrow.

This means a total and complete economic blackout.

This means buying nothing.

AT ALL

Not even your coffee!

Help I clicked on an ad for a light fixture that was $750 and I will see ads for it until the end of time

Thou shalt accept that DEI didn't hold your career back -- you're just mid, bro.

After 7 months of trying, I finally got a perfect CPAP score.

I tried to eat my little mandarin orange that I brought for a snack, but when I peeled it, there was a little bit of mold and I had to throw it out.

A chocolate bar would never let me down like that.

It is like losing a relative. My thoughts are with his family and all who loved him.

Happy birthday!

Hang in there, friend

I lost my Wordle streak today, but I’m not nearly as mad as I was yesterday when Connections was pictures.

We got a new copier at work and it feels like a special early birthday present to me!

Me: I’ve done 1004 Wordles with a 97% success rate.

Teen: You need to get a life.

I made rocky road cookies for a school club bake sale. You’d buy one, right?

I hope this never makes it out of Committee, because this is really bad. Alabama is behind in education already, and without the support of a federal department, I am very concerned that schools will get worse.
