Today's Low Quality Ad is for this Accordian Bear Blanket. Look at him. Just minding his own business, vibing to the music. Not shooting any women in the face. No wonder women chose the bear.

I'd like to watch The Pitt, but I've read about some of the injuries that are apparently graphically displayed and I don't think I'm up to it.

A new international student just tried to buy a pencil from me in the library, and I had the pleasure of telling them they were free.

Just finished my new tradition of taking books to my closest Little Free Library on New Year’s Day (OK a day late, but I think it still counts)

Yes, I still play Wordle, and one of my goals is to have the Wordlebot tell me that "no one else in our sample of [x number of] completed Wordles faced this scenario." I can usually do it at least once.

The whole 6-7 thing reminds me of when I was in probably about Gr. 8 and we had a geography/history unit about China, and after we learned about Chairman Mao the boys in my class would loudly repeat "MAO" over and over whenever his name was mentioned, driving our teacher insane, understandably.

Hey english-folklores, new Good Place curse just dropped
this kid is going places. "english folklore" has the same syllables and stress pattern as "motherfucker", not to mention "folk" does the same labial-dental-fricative-to-velar-plosive thing that "fuck" does, and "lore" neatly takes the place of "-er."
My 7 year old just reached for a piece of pizza fresh out of the oven and exclaimed, in the same tone as an adult swearing…
“English folklore, that’s hot!”
I choked laughing ENGLISH FOLKLORE AS A SWEAR? WHO ARE YOU?!?

I can't stop thinking about the guy I overheard in the grocery store telling his partner he didn't want to buy those big Chinese carrots because they "looked photoshopped."
