Leave it to the Democrats to be given an Ace on election day, and when the Republicans call that bet (clearly bluffing) the Dems fold. 🤦‍♂️

I uhh, I don't play poker so bear with me on the lingo here.

Should probably check on my father-in-law's flight status. Let me just open this app for the first time in ages and- WANNA TAKE A SURVEY ABOUT OUR APP?

Talked with a new neighbor today. She seemed really nice. (Please don't be secret MAGA, Please don't be secret MAGA...)

This was on a random paper found during an office cleanup. My daughter's legal name is Catherine. Hope this tracks for her too.

Lady directly behind me in the pharmacy line is keeping about 10' distance. If I were behind her I'd be irrationally annoyed by that, but being in front it's actually kinda nice.

I'm just saying, the world seemed like a much better place when our nutritional advice was in the form of a pyramid and it said carbs are most important!

Here's a video of about 50,000 people singing the same word a bunch of times, occasionally punctuated by 2 more words added in.

Nothing like texting your dad about getting in an extremely minor car accident, and seeing a sponsored location for a personal injury attorney when you open Google Maps minutes later 🙄

Toddler was watching Winnie the Pooh. I'm sure I saw this part as a kid too, but the humor went WAY over my head!

Tina Peters is marking one year in prison by demanding that the DOJ follow President Trump's directive to free her.

"Get off your asses and get me out!" Peters wrote.

She's serving a nine year sentence for tampering with voting systems in search of election rigging. #copolitics

Oh no! I spilled some of the dog's dinner on the floor! How will I clean- oh, good girl.

Confession: other than being a Chrysler product, I like the PT Cruiser. Everyone hates on it, but at least they *tried* to do something different! Too often we see the boring and predictable things being done.

That 70s show premiered in 1998 and set in 1976 for that episode.

If they were to debut a similar show today, it would be set in 2003. FYI.

Working a crawlspace reorg, found this in my Atari box. I have no idea where it came from - didn't have it as a kid, would definitely have bought it in the wild, but have absolutely no recollection of doing so.

I guess one one advantage of the shorter days, my brain is apparently programmed to do nighttime chores when it gets dark. I did everything but put the toddler minion to bed and let doggy minion outside before 8:00 tonight!

I would like to offer thoughts and prayers for Charlie Kirk & family, and demands for meaningful gun reform for the kids shot in school today in Evergreen, CO (& families)

If this difference upsets anyone, I'm happy to demand reform for Charlie Kirk as well. Just let me know.

Another (likely) AI failure. Or this baby aisle is so big it has an entire Walmart in it?
