I have lots of houseplants and write on TV shows (Netflix's Avatar, Invincible, Rings of Power, Welcome to Derry, The Man Who Fell to Earth, 13 Reasons Why, Hawaii 5-0, Hannibal, and others).

is life just a series of days where you're tired in the afternoon and wide awake at night, running behind on weekly deadlines, and seeing pants get slim and big and then slim again over the years until you die?

Oh man I may have watched like the first half and then quit. I was a dumb girl back then! Time to rewatch!

I'm reaching the end of the book WUTHERING HEIGHTS and... welfare check on Emily Bronte?! πŸ˜‚ Things are reaching "Ryan Murphy show in its 3rd+ season" levels of ✨️DRAMA✨️. Is there any adaptation that adapts the second half with as much devilish gusto as the first half?!

Me, as a teenager: the first half of Wuthering Heights is interesting.

Hmm. The US is giving $10 billion in taxpayer dollars, not appropriated by Congress, to a fake board set up by the President and which he put himself in charge of *for life*... seems very, very illegal.

The book WUTHERING HEIGHTS is basically a one long drawn out story of this housekeeper spilling some MAJOR tea on the household. πŸ€ͺ

Nothing this SEVEN YEAR OLD CHILD could have done makes this justified. How can the party who is "pro-children" be okay with IMPRISIONING CHILDREN?

-HowAboutNo- β€’ 1h
β€’ Sweden
That angle was pre-prepared by the Swedes. It's not a usual angle. The Canadians didn't know this angle existed. It's usually from the front where it's impossible to see a touch.
The Swedes stated in the post-match interview that they made it into a big deal because the Canadians have done this before in other games.
The refs never act and they wanted to force them to more actively rule the games.
The Swedes can be heard during the game saying that "it's fine, Magnus is recording", refering to a guy from Swedish television operating the camera from that angle.
This was pre-planned and expected.
It's the reason why Oskar is so confident that it's on camera.

The American men's curling team look like they can also be a D&D team (complimentary of course).

I am back in America. Watching the coolest most hotly debated sport on television (curling, obvi!) now.

Something's off with the Canadian men's curling team today against the Swiss, but I can't put my finger on it

Also Flavor Flav was there, which was fairly surreal.
