One hyper fixation at a time, avid reader and consumer of media, lifelong Disney, HP, Marvel (I know, basic millennial). I like dogs and sunsets.

Feeling lost. But happy to have done the first step of deleting meta off my phone.

And then put in the comments that they didn’t have half the ingredients so post a totally ad hoc recipe they cobbled together that does not resemble the content creator’s in the least- with a one star rating 😂

DEAR MISS MANNERS: A couple of years ago, my wife and I attended the wedding of two people who had been friends of ours for years. One year ago, the woman left the man for another man. We heard all about it from the man but heard nothing from the woman as we live in separate towns. We received a Christmas package from the woman who made no reference to her infidelity -- an act that affected all who were friends of the pair. I felt the need to thank her for the gift and card, but I didn't feel as if I should ignore the issue of her leaving her husband. In the end, I wrote a thank-you note and told her what I thought of the situation -- not in excoriating terms but in bluntly honest ones. Was this boorish? GENTLE READER: Yes. Had you wished to register your disapproval you could have written her a dry letter of thanks; had you wished to register extreme disapproval, you could have returned the present. Miss Manners is afraid that “Thanks, slut," is not a proper communication.

my favorite Miss Manners column (from 2002) was on my fridge for years and it finally gave up the ghost. found it to print it out again, and it seemed selfish not to share.

Good for you for not being in denial that the sleeping part of the night is over. Maybe prepping coffee the night before in a thermos to keep bedside?

I’ve been up a few hours and wound up going down the rabbit hole of this new platform- wish me and my half a Xanax luck for a few more hours.
