Went out to the garage at 6:15 this morning to work out, and it’s already disgusting. Why do I live here again #stlwx

Oh we’ve done that more than once. Still sitting on those drawings. They won’t get anything built until they pay up or start over with someone else, and we sure as hell won’t give up those CADs.

I’ve always been curious about that house, and I DID NOT expect that interior. I know it’s 2 years old, but 🤔

Yikes. That’s a big miss on their part.

And that’s why they’re rich; they’re sticking it to the small businesses who don’t have the capital to recoup it. We have so much with a collections attorney that I know we’ll never ever see. Sorry it’s happening to you too.

I feel that. (The rich ones are THE WORST.) Retainer up front and no final deliverable until we’re paid everything we’re due. I’m sick of this shit.

Happy to help! And I get it…I’m still not in the habit of checking BlueSky regularly just yet. :)

Here Comes Science — They Might Be Giants

TMBG did a whole kids album, and it’s actually GOOD. Full of ear worms and everybody learns something: www.theymightbegiants.com/here-comes-s...

Anything by They Might Be Giants is a hit with the younger people and adults around here! (See also: Barenaked Ladies.) Sing-songy and clean for the kids, tolerable for the adults.

Honestly, if it means the death of LVT I’m not mad about it

Surprised this is the first one I’ve gotten. Hard surface = LVT, usually comes from S Korea or China. Soft surface = carpet.

Everyone watching to see if Corey Booker can beat some old dead racist at Long Talking like the kids in Matilda watching to see if Bruce Bogtrotter can eat all of the big cake

A grocery store? Lots of little towns around there and nothing for miles. (And I’m not counting dollar stores and gas stations) something like Meier’s would be nice: grocery and other items like clothes and small home goods to push back against WalMart. And it could spur more development.

Definitely some asshole taking advantage of the system. I’m so sorry.

Glad Nome is on BlueSky! He was one of my favorites over on Twitter. This is the glorious random content I’m here for.

It’s like three times a day. I’ll miss them when they’re grown and not doing this tomfoolery anymore

All this is to say: learning the humanities is important so we don’t make the same dumb mistakes over and over.

We’re so glad you’re still here. You’ve spread joy and enthusiasm for reading to so many, and the world is a kinder, richer place for it. 💛
