Told a friend I was trying to get a skunk from a well.
“What are you, Lassie?”

I have named him Timmie.

Timmie is now free!

I will never forget when my mom tried to use her cancer to get my sisters boyfriend of 7 years to propose by saying "don't make me go to my oldest daughters wedding bald Steve" and he looked this woman dead in the eyes and responded "they make really good wigs now, Joan" ruthless

Apparently Donnie Wahlberg is in some new show where he plays a cop from Brooklyn and the show is called Boston Blue. This annoys me. Is this character also specifically noted to have never been in a boy band? I can only suspend so much disbelief.

The people who just low-key denounced circumcision are investigating Harvard and UCLA for … (*re-checks notes*) antisemitism? Do I read that right?

Justin Baragona @justinbaragona.bsky.social · 19h

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

The little jar of Colman’s mustard is so small that I usually forget it’s in the fridge. Not today! Today is a great day to be a ham sandwich.

Delicious and nutritious Legg.

Agouti and white rat Ajax lies on his back hedonistically as he grooms his back leg. He's chomping on it like a corncob or a rib bone and clearly enjoying himself.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Just moved a doctors appointment back a month to give myself more time to become healthy and/or become a more convincing liar.
