Best thread 🍫🍫🍫
It's terrifying in its scope.
Time to open a sparkling wine! 🥂🍾
I always have to be at the airport at 4:30 am. Usually my eyes aren't fully open, makeup is a nonstarter, and I'm slumped in those uncomfortable chairs. 😂

FFS, this is a farce.
Somehow, I don't quite know how, I just knew.
He's so big 🥹

It's lovely. Those other celebrities' gigantic rings are so tacky.
A brilliant thread on diamonds. 😁
I found a weevil in my flour. Guess what I'll be doing tonight?
I just found a weevil in my new flour. Which I used to make these last night. 🤢

Congrats to her! How fun!
It's so vile and disgusting.
Good grief! Wordle 1,524 6/6 ⬛⬛⬛🟨🟨 ⬛🟨⬛🟨⬛ ⬛🟨🟨⬛⬛ 🟨🟨🟨⬛🟨 🟨⬛⬛🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
My daughter & her now-husband eloped to Savannah (short trip for them). Beautiful dress, winter decor outside, married in a park with their dog and a photographer. Beautiful, easy, and i expensive.
Oh fuck, no!
Good riddance!!
Perfection. 💯
I love it as is! Very cute!
I once watched a French film in which a family was preparing to go on a picnic. They never got there and I think I temporarily died of boredom halfway through.
There are a lot of reasons to be embarrassed about this, but the thing that jumps out to me is that this is how you use a bookshelf when you're illiterate.
I'm gonna have nightmares about those eyes & teeth 😬
That's both cute and terrifying. 😳
I hope they find a solution to the pain so you can both be well again.
Sooo tacky. And he wonders why the old money people won't accept him.
I remember when simpler forms of plagiarism took hours to document, but the incidence was so much less frequent. You have my sympathy! I'd want to ask the admins about how AI fits with the school's mission--pretty sure cheating is not part of it!

I've read that English profs' grading time has doubled, and our load was not light before! And if the institution doesn't fight it, what can faculty do? Ugh!!
I cannot imagine how hard it is for all my colleagues right now. And admins seem happy to embrace the craziness.
Every fall, I looked forward to getting back in the classroom--it was my identity, my professional dream. And I've missed that. But when I see what's happening with AI and universities capitulating to insanity, I'm not regretting leaving at all.

I visited this bookstore last year and it was a delight. The GOP won't be satisfied until they destroy everything. 😡
It's such a petty way to treat employees.
It's so wrong for universities to make their people pay to park.
We can all contain multitudes 💛
Please may I have your leftover egg?
What are you making?
I cannot anymore.
Our season is here. Iykyk 🧙🏼♀️🧹🎃

I'd put some curl cream in an empty moisturizer container (for travel). I forgot, and then wondered why my face was really slick. 😂
I liked evening sung very much!
This is who Iowa needs.
O.m.g. 😍

I know Jamie and there is not a single work place that would not benefit tremendously from her presence! She's amazing at everything she does.
This is not okay. 25th, now.
How Poppy came in today. 😭
I always love these scenes, but I know there's 90% humidity and large mosquitos lurking.
Oh, wow!
Shepherd and corgi? Or heeler? No way are they pure 'bread.'
Exactly!
I think we're all feeling a bit like this little Jesus abandoned in the rec center parking lot.
JFC. 😡
This mashup has me some kind of way

The rich must be incentivised; the poor must be disciplined. The political economy of the super-elite in one headline.
That would be incredible.
Happy Early Birthday! Sixty is somehow a magical number.
I hope your upcoming year is filled with wonderful & unexpected adventures. 💙
Exactly.
Worth. It. We don't get any nice peaches here. 🥲
Sooooo jealous!
Sweet girl, hope she recovers quickly!
You just can't believe numbers. Or science. Or any indisputable facts. Can we say it's an autocracy now?
Of course they did.
Think that line would work on my hair?
Pierogi-gate!
Macro lens for iPhone?? Wow!
And here I was, thinking the level of delusion couldn't become any worse.
So he gets $500+ a week for food?? When not working!! GTFOH
Quick question for my writer friends: if I wrote an erasure poem based on a famous writer's private letters, and identify it as such, is there a problem with claiming the poem as "mine"?

Why *not* have a fruity cocktail on a Tuesday?
He's never believed women are anything more than objects or possessions.
Dolly Parton is also super rich but instead of trying to build a Mars mansion, she put 150 million books into the hands of children. Be like Dolly. 📚
I read that as "revolting" and was pleased someone would be honest.
Change it only if EVERY Congressperson can pass 🤷♀️
We're in Iowa City and didn't have power for 4 days. Our neighbors lost roofs, huge trees down, streets were blocked. It's essential to prepare.
I'm dancing to this on repeat.
Does he ever stop fucking talking????
Today's moments of beauty. ♥️♥️
Peonies are all springtime and light. Dahlias are fallish and goth.

He has never seen a plain. Ever.
I read that taking a spoon, heating it under hot running water, and applying said hot spoon to the bite(s) would stop the itch. Something about heat breaking up the proteins? I tried it on one bite and it worked. 🤷♀️
Our shelters are overflowing. These kinds of breeders are responsible. 😡
Pet-sitting Miss Lizzie today.
My heart hurts that this is what our country had become. And nobody better mouth that shit of "I didn't vote for *that.* Yes, yes you did, you maga-cretins.
That is a stupid word. Ugh.
It must be swell to lie with impunity when you have immunity.
