Of course I understand caution with ⚡️, but just about everything has a ‘do not open’ label on it (in the litigous US anyway). Do we not care about right to repair?

My own dumb actions.

I deserved it. We are on speaking terms now years later at least.

I was weak and lonely and easily susceptible to her boyfriend’s advances. We were quite young, early teens.

Joke was on all 3 of us… he hadn’t figured out yet that he was gay. Neither had she for that matter. They’re both infinitely more happy now. And I’m happy for them.

My sentiments exactly.

I’d love to be struck with creative ideas sooner, but I also resent commercial Christmas creeping into October.

You can’t please everyone, so pick the audience you want to write to. If you don’t care what angry white guys think, then create your characters however you like.

Exactly. They want to bring in exponentially more premiums than what they spend on advertising, and the new premiums are what provides the cash to pay other policy claims. It’s really kind of an accepted form of Ponzi scheme. They are gambling that they will find enough people who will never need to make a claim in order to afford the few that do.

Omg that looks amazing!

We should compile a playlist.

• jackhammer
• air raid siren*
• trumpet reveille
• taiko drumming
• “eagle” (i.e. hawk) cry
• monkeys screeching
• Woody fuckin Woodpecker laugh
• applause
• theme from Rawhide

*maybe don’t use this one in tornado country. Don’t desensitize oneself to actual emergency warning tones.

I can get behind that!

Happy birthday!

Do tell us more about this short rib pot pie 🤤

You have a keen wit
