You ever tried to teach a tone deaf person how to sing? It’s unfortunately not in the cards for me

I’m dying. Just conjuring up the McCarthy Era, but in the sci-fi writers world.

GREAT recommendation.

One of my favorite moments in college was my Shakespeare professor inviting their colleague to come in and explain why they thought Marlowe was Shakespeare, and then the next lecture giving credit to some of the points, arguing the other side, and finishing with “we don’t really know…”

I make dinner, do the dishes and all of the dirty jobs, so everyone wins.

Did that once (well, didn’t notice that a red towel had been put in the washer already and threw the whites on top of it). Got lucky that it was a small load and no one minded those particular clothes turning pink.

But of course no one let it go (justifiably)

It’s a little less feigning and more I am just not good enough at folding, and I can’t tell my kids clothes apart.

It goes both ways because I banished my spouse from dishes, because I am better and she gets dry hands. 😃

When this ICE shit started, a mutual I’d never met asked how to help. I sent him to a friend’s kid’s preschool that was struggling to find patrollers. He’s been there almost daily, even in brutal cold, at a school where he didn’t know anyone, to keep folks safe. We finally met and got beers tonight.

I see you're unfamiliar with Wide Receiver Name Theory

Three last names: HOF
Two last names: Pro Bowler
One first name, one last: solid vet
Two first names: mainly ST gunner
Two first names that rhyme: bust
