This morning my husband caught me up on his Stardew Valley town. A new chicken (Dinner; joining Breakfast & Lunch), goat (Chevre), and rabbit (Dre).

"Dre?"
"Yeah, and the next one will be Tupac."
I'm only halfway through my coffee, so I had to ask why.
"Well, because they hip and they hop."

Either my Uber profile told my driver what a basic bitch I am, or he has excellent taste in music. So far this playlist has been Chappell Roan, Rose + Bruno Mars, Taylor Swift, and Miley Cyrus.

I'm prepping a video for @stellaris.paradoxinteractive.com about the Biomorphosis Situation, in which you get to choose between various genetic ascension paths.

It is it too "old"/niche of a reference if I title it "It's Biomorphin' Time"? #ElderMillenial

Murkowski says call volume to the Senate is now 40x higher than normal:

A facebook post from Lisa Murkowski: I want to thank Alaskans who have been reaching out to my offices in D.C. and across Alaska. The U.S. Senate phone system has been receiving around 1,600 calls each minute, compared to the 40 calls per minute we usually receive, which has disrupted our call systems. Thank you for your patience as my staff works to review your messages and share them with me. We’re all working to get this issue resolved as quickly as possible.

I love this so much!

At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions.

This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

Print out the list of Cup winners in the last 50 years and leave it on his desk. ;)

My soundtrack today is my husband excitedly telling me the things he's learning about Civ VII while watching different streams and videos.

Sounds like a question for telemetry! I'll see if we can find out before our end-of-year wrap-up video! 😁

I just remembered that I had a dream last night where I showed up to a work function at a baseball stadium, and was promptly told I'd be singing the National Anthem.

Y'all, I was in marching band for a reason.

I don't know who led the re-design of the McCormick spice bottles, but neither my husband nor I can get the lids off to remove the freshness seals.

The best thing I've done for myself this week is muting all mentions of TFG in my email inbox. Anything with his name gets filtered to a folder I have to manually check.

And it's been a blessing to not have his name in headlines and breaking news and other surprise nonsense.

10/10. Do recommend.
