My daughter-in-law's plane was supposed to arrive at 12:30 this afternoon. The plane had "issues" and they got bumped to another plane ... arriving at 9:00 p.m. We had plans for the evening, guess that's scrapped. And she can only stay until early Friday morning.

Librarian here.
I’ve been too broke for books before. It happens. So here are some resources.
1) The library. Now, maybe your particular local library doesn’t have whatever it is. You can request that we purchase something (PLEASE! Makes my job SO much easier). If that doesn’t work 🧵

Just saw someone claim that authors who want to be paid for their work are "class traitors" because we "only let the wealthy" read our books, and I think I need to go into the woods to scream into the night for a bit.
It's $5, not your first-born child! I need that $5 for health insurance!

I always keep a full tub of whipped cream in the house. Never know when you're going to need it.
Visitor: Oh, yeah. I keep a tub of Cool Whip in the freezer too.
(Slowly closing the door to the secret whipped cream room I started to open and turning back to them) Right! A small tub of Cool Whip.

This man is a licensed physiotherapist who is skilled in treating geriatric patients and in his expert opinion based on his observations Trump has had a series of TIA’s or a stroke. It’s really obvious when you see Trump’s gait from this angle!
