look I know being an engaged citizen IS the work of democracy but it is also the work of elected officials not to create situations where everyone has to be mobilized all the time to prevent them from allowing some kind of Dickensian horror on a Sunday night while you're in between loads of laundry

Just finished it. What a film. No movie should be longer than 84 minutes. If your movie is 2.5 hours + and you're not Peter Jackson go back to the editing bay and try again
Watching the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre for the first time and it's giving me a newfound appreciation for Resident Evil 7

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

Wesley broke one of my East Fork plates 😭 SEEMINGLY through no fault of his own but who knows… He claims he simply set it down and it broke in half and acknowledged it sounded fake to say that’s what happened but insisted it did

I felt like doing something nice for my spouse so I finished mowing the front lawn (15yo abandoned the job weeks ago and nobody had gone back to finish it). I forgot that lawn mowing is hard work (it’s on a hill) so I didn’t use my inhaler and now I feel like death

If I have to explain to you why it's a bad idea to use a machine that makes shit up 15-80% of the time AND destroys the environment AND contributes to rising fascism and genocide AND puts brilliant skillful creatives out of work by stealing their work, then we're already speaking different languages

One time at age three, my kid convinced his aunt and uncle (who were babysitting him) that Nana and Papa always let him watch movies naked with a big bowl of candy. It was not true but he got to do it and he had the time of his life
We have ordered pizza because apparently his parents promised he could have pizza today
