One of those viewers were the teenagers at our watch party.
They had it on their phone and were laughing away at it. Apparently they were eager for meme material.

I waitressed at a diner-like restaurant in the late 80s-early 90s. During that time there was no caffeine fad. So many regulars crankily switched to decaf for their health. Mind you, they were still chain smoking their cigarettes. It was a short-lived thing for all of them.

We invited our French neighbor over to watch with us. We asked him to bring beer. He just notified us he is bringing wine instead and do we have a decanter?

The ceiling at the James Farley post office (NYC, on 8th and 31st) is gorgeous. I was curious why there was a RF. Looked it up and there are the seals of 10 countries up there on the ceiling; RF = Republic of France.

My white husband (53 yrs old) guessed it and he knows next to nothing about rap. Think it could be an age thing, these contestants seem young.

As I said when I called your office, what we have witnessed can’t be reformed. ABOLISH ICE

Happy Caturday! The cat is always looking for a big cuddle. Today all she could get is this.

So true! I’ve been watching Loot on Apple TV the last couple days and saw no mention of new Shrinking episodes! I just kept getting Hijack previews; a show I was shocked to learn is in its second season! I’ve never heard of it.

I attended training in my city and it was incredibly informative. Also, just a good way to meet your neighbors.

Looking out a window at a snow-covered street. Two garbage trucks turned into snow plows are on the street.

I’ve been watching the snow from our apartment and impressed how many times the plows have come by. Thank you, NYC Sanitation!

Just learning me & Mike are the same age, thought he was much older! I was raised Catholic & this thinking was so popular(what if your parents had aborted you!?!) As an adult-especially after having kids & miscarriages-I would say now I am happy they had the choice, I wouldn't force this on anyone.

I visited China in 2019 and saw wind farms. Why doesn’t someone yell β€œwhat the hell are you talking about?”

It was in NYC on First Ave, where Treadwell Park is now.

Neely’s BBQ. The location was nice, the servers fun and the food delicious. The Neelys were Food Network stars. Unfortunately they divorced and the restaurant closed.
One server had music note tattoos and made the dining experience so pleasant.

A guy I know from high school who is now a cop had a rant on FB about Renee Good interfering with the arrest of a pedophile and why doesn’t MN want the pedophiles arrested? Now I know where he is getting these ideas.

I have a scoop in my coffee every morning for my thinning hair. It wasn’t too long after starting this routine that my haircut guy pointed out I had lots of new hair growth. Could have just been timing but I keep using it.

Happy Caturday! This former feral is so eager to cuddle with our aloof mutt that she will make do with this less than ideal situation.

Came here to say something similar! If I served that piece of chicken simulation meal to my teenagers it would cost more than $3/each and my kids would be starving.

This jerk said Renee Good put herself in the way. She was driving in her neighborhood after dropping off her kid at school! Also, he kept repeating ICE is there to pick up the criminals the city let go. Then use court records to find these people, show up w/ a judicial warrant! He knows he is lying

I attended a neighborhood training session and signed up there with the local Signal chat. We were told at the training there were people in the room who were there for the wrong reasons and to expect these people to weasel their way into the Signal chat.

Congressman, we have seen time and time again that these officers don’t like when people pull out a phone near them. The officers have repeatedly been videoed smacking phones out of people’s hands. This isn’t the way.

Given how stupid everything is I wouldn’t be surprised if the answer was NJ Real Housewives.

WTF, CNN? I am in a major city and my kid’s PTA has addressed ICE concerns from parents. ICE is illegally breaking into people’s homes and abducting people, including unaccompanied minors, off the streets. Now we are part of the problem since we want to know our rights?!?

Recently when my teenage sons were hanging out with their buddies, I overheard them laughing about Kirk. They showed me memes of people being β€œKirkified”, basically big dark eyes and short, dark hair. Then they shared a bunch of Vance and Mrs Kirk jokes.

Homan, there are Ring and phone cameras now. Here in NYC, we saw home security camera and phone footage of ICE illegally breaking into a home and harassing a mom while she breastfed her baby. That is some
Nazi shit.
