Ha!
Also: I haven't read the word "harlot" in quite a while - I like it!
It reminded me of ( possibly apocryphal) :
Jean Harlow mispronounced Margot Asquith's (wife of British PM) first name as "Mar - got".
Ms Asquith said "The T is silent. As in Harlow".
I don't know if my take on Tuesday will be popular with my fellow Lefties, but:
THE highest priority for D strategists should be to assess what had more impact: what we said, or growing revulsion for Trump.
If the latter, and he croaks before midterms...
I'm fasting one day a week.
I leave "which day" to your inference from the quality, topic, and relative sanity of my posts.

06.11.2025 03:18 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0These ingrates have toys. Treats. Cat Trees.
They are psychopaths who hold me in obvious contempt, and the day they figure out how to work a can opener, I'll likely be found decaying a few days later by a UPS delivery person.
I am liking these new-to-me shows now:
"Maigret"
"Down Cemetary Road" (Emma Thompson and Ruth Wilson, from from Mick Herron's book as is the incomparable "Slow Horses")
I was liking "Professor T", but they committed an unpardonable sin, and I stopped watching it.
I'll pass that along to the underserving monsters.
06.11.2025 02:54 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I was awakened by unusual sounds in my bedroom at around 3am.
Evidently, I had left a dresser drawer partway open, and my darling (by which I mean "idiot") cats were furiously scratching and clawing, pulling all of my athletic socks out and on to the floor.
Now my watch is chiding me for exercising too much.
It's always something.
I may have to break up with this watch.
Or at least start seeing other watches.

I think all the words I would guess after first guess have been used.
So I tried a lower value word instead, just happened to work out for three.
Luck.

Context is everything.

This sentence from the article I was reading should probably not stand alone:
"If your crack is relatively uniform, self-leveling caulk will flow into it evenly with no extra work."

"Life in the Trump Lane" lyrics:
"They killed all the right people,
They took all the right pills
They threw outrageous parties
They didn't pay any bills."

Up until age 35 or so, I drank coffee black, no sugar.
Then I started using cream or half and half, mainly because I was traveling to many different offices, and the coffee was undrinkable swill.
The habit stuck.
But, this week, I'm going back to black.
I ask for your patience...
