There should be some lightly used ones available soon! You could probably get a discount.
At this point he's just shoveling taxpayer money into his own pockets. The greed is astounding.
In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.
Several years ago a family member purchased a cheap electric hand warmer for another relative. I was working as a product liability attorney at the time and all I could picture was the forthcoming class action complaint...
I found their reasons for holding back the truth to be believable, and so this didn't bother me as much as it usually would.
I don't want to spoil anything, but there were aspects of the ending that I did not enjoy, and I felt went counter to the themes of the book.
4 out of 5 stars.
Finished my first book of 2026. I found it hard to put down. The setting was almost a character in its own right, and I thought she did a good job building the tension among the various characters. Although it's true that much of it could have been solved just by people being honest with each other,
Yes! I worked HARD to get my now 10-year-old to read fiction.
I mean, if it was actually meant to staple hot dogs, I would definitely agree.
Yeah when I tore my ACL they told me that they wouldn't even consider surgery for a month because they "had to wait for inflammation to go down." I guess NFL-grade knees just work different or something.
My husband will sometimes (after the clean, folded laundry has been sitting in our room for days) just dump it out on the bed. So we can't go to sleep unless we put it away! So rude. Yet effective.
Yes, it drives me crazy when people I know defend the electoral college with the argument that otherwise, California and New York would decide everything. You mean, all of the *people* who live there would vote for things? And that's a structural problem somehow?

Love the cool auntie energy. (My youngest is going as a demon hunter. 😅)
Thank you! I had so much fun making it, and I'm kind of obsessed with the colorful yarn.
Blocking the shawl I made for a friend. (It's a prayer shawl because I prayed for her while I was knitting it, and because I know she prays regularly for her community and might need a pretty shawl to keep her warm while she does.) Just need to weave in a few ends and send it on its way! 🧶
My girls are obsessed and I'm not mad!
Yes! That happened with my third! 😅 She has normal, thick hair now.

Especially by the time you're on a third kid and you're only taking care of the newborn! You're a pro now! Able to not freak out about all the minor newborn stuff because you've put in your time!
That's an impressive transformation!
The joke I've been waiting for since I took White Collar Crime in 2009.
I am EXTREMELY extroverted and I read more books in a year than almost anyone I know (other than online friends 😅). I just don't watch very much TV.
Right? Like, at the margins there are ways to save money, but FOR STARTERS it's actually not "free" for one parent to quit their job to provide full time childcare.
Yes! I was just reminiscing the other day with my husband about the visualizations. We both spent many hours of our college careers absolutely mesmerized.
Ugh, that was our experience when my 5 month old had to take a course of steroids. Thankfully it was only for a few days!
There's a historic Shaker village near where I live and I've thought about how appealing a sexually abstinent society might have been for women (even mothers!) in a pre-birth control era. It's not surprising to me that they died out though. 😅
Also? At 12 minutes a piece, 100 books is still 20 hours! I can't imagine how depressing it would be to spend that much time listening to shoddy summaries of books I wouldn't remember. Much better use of that time to read or listen to two or three good books that will stick with you.
Not my family, but someone who went to our church called them "blessed eggs."
There is so much going on. It's heavy.
My sometimes dad talks about how he gave up golf when I was born. He didn't give up fishing, but he realized he wouldn't have time for TWO time-intensive hobbies after having kids. Smart man.
