Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

Anyone that rails against gender affirming care should be denied birth control, boner pills, hair loss treatments, and a whole host of other things.

I made chicken long rice soup, except I always forget and add more noodles than necessary so it didn’t stay a soup past the first bowl. Those cellophane noodles absorb liquid like crazy.

With a master's degree in English, I could easily say Beowulf or Chaucer, but it's actually this poem written by Robert Louis Stevenson for Princess Kaiulani as she was leaving Hawaii to study in England.

I don’t watch American football, but the bar I’m at has it on the teevee and the marching band played Kiss From A Rose and it made me pause my audiobook.

My dishwasher stopped turning on a while ago, and I finally got around to having someone come and take a look at it, and it needed a software update and a reboot.
LOL, does my dishwasher run on Windows?

This past Saturday I, along with other members of the Maunupau Ohana, helped put Prince Kuhio's newly restored racing canoe in the water and got to paddle in Ke'ehi lagoon.

Thanks for the birthday present, you really didn't need to. 😜

As much as the Trumpists claim to disavow the War on Terror, they walk a path paved by the most powerful vice president in US history.

I attended Catholic school from K-12 and there are certain things that instantly take me back. Whenever I hear the word *contrite*, I think of the Act of Contrition, which I have known by heart pretty much all of my life.

Coming from a culture where everyone past a certain age is either aunty and uncle, I don't know what the fuss is about except that people just want to hate on Mamdani.

Oh, rad. There is a confirmed case of mumps in Hawaii. On Hawaii island, so not where I'm at, but if we learned anything from Covid, it's that in the modern age of air travel, contagious illnesses don't care about geography.

I stayed at a very fancy resort in Wailea on Maui this weekend because there was an extra pre-paid room. It was very nice, but I was surrounded by very wealthy people, which can get weird sometimes.

When I was growing up, one wall of our garage was filled with shelves of books with no covers. I dont know who my mom’s source was, but we had a steady supply of delightfully trashy fiction with some actual gems in the mix.
on the first page of a book they used to say that you should never buy books at a discount with the covers ripped off. and it always made me mad i paid full price. no one ever told me where this coverless bookstore was

Since we're talking about autism, while my flavor of neuro-spiciness isn't autism, I can definitely tell it runs in my family. When my nephew was diagnosed, my brother made way more sense to me.

Just came home from watching the Seattle Storm win against the Las Vegas Aces, and without regard to game play, I absolutely love that when they pan to Megan Rapinoe in her seat, they announce her as Sue Bird's girlfriend.

100% agree.
Are we going to see a bunch of influential Dems named when the truth finally comes out? Yes.
Should they be prosecuted alongside the Republicans? Also yes.
