This is my childhood 😭 I’m so sad it’s no longer made!
Friendly's Jubilee Roll (1975-2021): Essentially an ice cream sundae log, with chocolate ice cream surrounded by chocolate chip, then topped with frosting, fudge, and nuts. This staple of the holiday season during the 80's and 90's was quietly discontinued due to "declining consumer interest"

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.

Jonathan Joss--voice actor of John Redcorn from King of the Hill, and Ken Hotate from Parks and Rec--was killed in a homophobic hate crime today.

I'm so angry.

“I didn’t vote for *this*!”

I mean okay but you voted for some other heinous shit he promised so that doesn’t really change my opinion of you

Buying a condo with a patio was the right choice bc now I can sit at my little bistro set in the shade instead of dragging a beach chair onto a communal lawn like I did at my old apartment 😭

Apple really wanted my iPhone to turn on my Personal focus (set to block work notifications) whenever I’m at home.

I work from home full time.

The Associated Press has moved hundreds of news alerts since President Donald Trump took office for a second time. We used them to tell the often-dizzying story of what Trump did, how some people and courts pushed back and the world's reaction.

And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes.

We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.

Don’t shame people for not immediately reading all the books they buy. Some books aren’t made to be ready right away, okay? Some books need time to mature. Some books need to cure for a while. Some books are prosciutto, and don’t you forget it.
