Just calling out a family member on Facebook for being racist. How's your Wednesday going? 😑

I'd chalk it up to excellent mothering. 😘

I was sending a birthday greeting to a long out-of-touch friend from elementary school on Facebook, and discovered that he had died three years ago.
I then deleted the birthday posts that I had unnoticingly sent the past two years.

...ow.

That's more than I got outta them. 🥲

HVAC guy is talking to my housemate (a woman) about the maintenance work he's done. I walk by to listen, and immediately he starts addressing me (a man), completely turning his back on HM. After a moment or two, I step past him and stand by her, so he has to speak toward both of us. #LatentMisogyny

The term "Antifa" means "Anti-Fascist".
If you call yourself "anti-Antifa", guess what that makes you?

As much as I'd like to take things off your hands, I feel like my presence would be akin to throwing water on a grease fire...

Daryl, Wayne, and Squirrelly Dan from Letterkenny sit at the kitchen table and nod as Daryl says, "Call it a Texas size 10-4 good buddies".

That's a Texas-sized 10-4, good buddy.

Oh, nothing big, just learning that -- because of a planned change to how the company handles PTO accruals -- I may now be unable to take off for the February vacation that @jacksvalentine.bsky.social have been planning for *years*. So, y'know, a bit put out about that.
What's new with you?

How sharper than a serpent’s tooth it is
To have a thankless child.—Away, away!

Well, today has not been a great day. #understatement

I've come to the realization that I'm rather terrible with the "social" part of social media.

Yes, I know this comes as a huge surprise to absolutely no one.

Haha, that's like me on Benadryl.

Yeah, flirting is weird, so maybe it's just that? :P

I find no issues with this affirmation. It is absolutely correct about you -- regardless of whether or not you feel it at the present moment.

…Or maybe midgets.

Me. My life. Every moment we’re together. And I can only hope I’m doing the same for you.

This single panel comic shows GRAMP, an older bald man with a grey mustache, holds SHELDON’s hand - a ten-year-old with large glasses. They walk away from the viewer into a beautiful sunset sky. In lighter line and faded color, and older woman hold GRAMP’s hand, looking over at both of them with a sweet smile. Holding SHELDON’s hand in lighter line and faded color is a young man in glasses, looking at SHELDON, mouth open as if he’s excitedly encouraging his son. HEADLINE: Grief is just Love that has Nowhere to go POEM: Grif is just love that has nowhere to go. Wher ethe love is still present…but with none to to bestow. See, our short lives are troubledd, and days can be hard, but there’s hands who will guide you, and love you, and guard. And your road is made softer, by their presence, there. And all loads made lighter, in moments of care. But when we must part — and we have, do and will — the love doesn’t cease, it continues on, still. And when love turns to grief, as the focal point’s gone, what once was a chorus, a solo-sung song. But int ime, all that love finds a new hand to hold. And pays forward the kindness that made it grow bold. So, while frief is just love that has nowhere to go… it’s the nature of love to find NEW ways to grow.

“Grief”

(With praise and attribution to Jamie Anderson,
whose wonderful insight on grief inspired this lil’ poem.)

Yes, but home-ownership means responsibility and adulting and long-term "figuring it out". Couch-surfing means ADHD "where am I sleeping tonight?" and that's about it.

Had a sliiiiight setback in teaching the youngest how to drive yesterday.

Somewhat related: I seem to be in need of another car... 😅💥🚗

WIFE: You're very quiet. What are you thinking?

ME: How could anyone trust Scooby Doo and his gang to solve any crimes when they call their vehicle The Mystery Machine. It's clearly a van.

HER: Sometimes it's ok to say 'nothing'

Most of the time, as my form of resistance, I inform and teach. But this weekend, for the first time, really, I protested. Was a very positive experience. #NoKings #HersheyPA

You've definitely succeeded in all these goals. Keep up the good work, Friend!

That sounds like tons o' baked-in fun, right there. And by "tons", I of course mean "an infinitesimally small amount".

Hey @davekellett.bsky.social -- Just a heads-up: Your RSS feeds for both Sheldon and Drive have been reposting *everything* since 2014 over the past 12 hours or so...

Bailing out my basement was not how I wanted to round out the week…

Thanks for the correction, Joe, and no disrespect intended, Jörg! Fabulous work as always, sir. :)
