For the past couple of years, my biscuit making game has been kinda shit. So, I’ve been sciencing on how to make them fluffier and more layered. I think I finally cracked it.

Came to drop a "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls" reference, but got lost in the Carrie Nation Wikipedia entry trying to find a good joke. Turns out, she was born in the county next to the one I grew up in... feels weird to have just learned that.

I feel like I would score higher given a lot of these don’t apply to the gays, and nothing on this list strikes me as all that scandalous.

“Molly House,” a board game about cruising the streets of 1720s London to throw the best gay/queer parties while trying to avoid the morality police, feels like an appropriate choice for a last minute gay bro game night.

🚨 QUESTION PROMPT🚨
What was your first automobile?
My first car was my parents’ 10-year-old 1988 Mercury Cougar in Medium Sandalwood. It was super fancy because it had a digital speedometer that I’d switch from miles to kilometers to make it feel like I was driving faster.

I’ve been watching a lot of reaction videos of “Clue” lately, and now my inner monologue while selecting a doughnut is voiced by super campy Tim Curry, “would you like chocolate? Perhaps raspberry, or lemon?Bourbon caramel. Strawberry. Or Cinnamon Roll?”

I was going to make French Toast for breakfast, but I kept tweaking it, and it turned into a Spiced Mocha Bread Pudding with a Pecan Crumble Topping.
