I like how the news will be like “while the President claiming Portland was ruled by a giant skeleton named Mr Nibbles is not strictly true, it does speak to the anxiety of many Americans”

I’ve missed hearing Woody Allen’s voice - I’d been so rattled this week and there he was, his full self.

He got really close to her face and said something slick. There was no physical contact, but he was, in my opinion, trying to intimidating her.

I accidentally over-spiced my dinner of chicken and rice, 🥵 so I'm eating my emotional support cookie at halftime instead of the 4th quarter to help my tongue and mouth calm down. 🥶

This has been your taste buds update. Go Aces!

I just heard someone make an anti-Semitic joke in public. Everyone just rolled with it. I'm in shock.

There was an old-school R&B one too. It had the song "Strokin'" by Clarence Carter on it. (Do NOT look up those lyrics!) I was singing that song around the house when I was but a wee tot and my aunt asked me where I had heard that song. 😂😂

This is an odd website, but it gave me the best explanation of the formal living room (and some of the other stuff on the list) I have ever heard.

I understand it now.

No; that’s a chalet.

A duvet is a delicious frozen dessert made from fruit and occasionally used as a palate cleanser between courses of a meal.

Can you put into words what that purpose is? You and the frog have really become icons of this protest.

There’s been a nice overall whimsy that has shown up. The frog is amazing. We had a bunch of other inflatable people here last night, too. I saw people playing Twister the other day.

What they rely on is fear. So by coming out in an absurdist manner, it speaks to them, to some extent, that we’re actually not that afraid.

It also dismantles their narrative a little bit. When they try to describe this situation as “war-torn,” it becomes much harder to take them seriously when they have to post a video saying [U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security] Kristi Noem is up on the balcony staring over the Antifa Army and it’s, like, eight journalists and five protesters and one of them is in a chicken suit.

I'm researching two judicial candidates for Saturday's election and both websites say they go to the same church. That must be awkward!

What if, for like 24 hours, there were signs on cars that told juuuuust a little of your business?

- only a sip of gas left.
- on the way church smelling like the club
- late for work; still going to stop for Starbucks
- once that refund hits, this will be a charger

It's just game three, so I didn't have an emotional support dessert, but I think white chocolate bread pudding is in order for Friday's game. #Aces
