Just back from a business trip to Italy with some co-workers. We ate lunch/dinner with our Italian hosts, and I swear I could see their soul leave their bodies as one of my coworkers cut up their pasta to eat it, rather than twirling it with the fork...
If he's looking for sympathy, he can find it in the dictionary between 'shit' and 'syphilis'. Because I have zero sympathy for him. He was all for MAGA until HE got pinched.
Give yourself some grace - you didn't have the spoons, and that's OK. There's no Christmas Card Police going to come knocking on your door, and those who know and love you understand you've been depressed.
Oooooh I hate those charlatans. When my sibling had cancer some of those 'natural' assholes tried talking my sibling out of chemo. I lost my shit and nearly got all up in their face to tell them to fuck all the way off. HATE alternative quackery. FUCKING HATE IT.
Yep. I think the same every time I see it. Then I go get out my Lions and my Vehicle Force and nerd a bit.
Cruelty is a feature, not a bug.
Yep. My better half developed an irregular heartbeat following Covid-19. My MIL started getting blood clots after her bout. Finally ended up losing a leg and and the stump turning gangrenous.
She's having none of your funny business!
Where is @glaucomflecken.bsky.social when you need him?
Given that it's on a fjord in Norway... dark and cold in the winter.
I LOVE THIS FOR HIM.
That's how they get you, the cat distribution system.
And he had a patent for a single Measles vaccine. patents.google.com/patent/US653... Scare people off the MMR, and market your own measles vaccine to make bank.
Raspberry Beret
So, I have to go on a work trip Sun-Tues in N Italy. I've received my plane tickets, but so far there's no hotel room with my booking (work is supposed to book them). So, if I don't get a booking confirmation before I leave, it's fair game to book my own, right? www.art-hotel-commercianti.com
It was... but I am SO THANKFUL it was before social media, LOL
Made the pilgrimage every Friday and Saturday night after roller skating! Skate, RHPS, IHOP and home!
The dainty princess is starving for attention.... ....and duck heads.
No personal experience, but I so very much hope it helps.
No shame in that game.... and I know the folks paying were HAPPY to pay.
All my IT friends are like "NOPE" when it comes to smart anything.
Protect your peace. Block whatever you need to, unfollow folks, whatever it takes to keep your peace.
You've been through so much lately, my heart hurts for you. Don't rush your grief; take the time you need and do your best with the spoons you have. <3
My small batch of spiced blueberry jam is done. Now getting the caramel on the stove for a Pear Vanilla Caramel sauce.
She is a dainty little princess and deserves everything!
It was fabulous. Happy Harry Hardon! It was my first introduction to Leonard Cohen's music.
Food, and if you're really close friends, offer to help with housework - laundry especially
I mean, is he my first pick? No. If he's the Dem candidate, am I going to vote for him? HELL YES.
Oh, I would love to be able to snuggle that doll! My allergies simply won't let me :(
Oh that looks fabulous... I'd do that in a heartbeat!
I'm definitely getting old when new vacuum accessories and new canning jars make me happy
Woods Hole Mass? Absolutely there are sharks there. I mean, there's a REASON Jaws was filmed off Montauk Point on Long Island. Anywhere along the coast of New England there are sharks. Where there are seals, there are sharks. That's how it works.
Ask the front desk for the site where they get their pillows?
Me: Them: Oh, I thought you'd send me a calendar invite or something Me: The IT system does that. It's up to you to add it to your calendar Them: So you don't do it? Me:
So I send out an email with some of the training materials for tomorrow's classroom training. Them: Hi, I don't know why you've sent me these materials, I don't have anything in my calendar for tomorrow - but if I can attend, I'd like to! Me: ...
It's also a good way to weed out religious fundies - the man won't be able to help himself with arguing about the age of the dinosaurs, earth, etc.
*a lot MORE
I think there's a disagreement as to who owns that pillow. Possession is 9/10ths of the law, and it looks like Rice owns it to me :D
Had 2.5 pounds of pickling cukes ripe in the garden, plus a pile of flowering dill. So, I made a small batch of dill pickles in my canner today.
Yep. He didn't want an educated populace, as that would mean a more liberal populace who won't settle for crumbs. The fact that Texas has so much sway over the textbooks in the US is also a big part of the problem - they're instrumental in dumbing down our kids, too.
Granted, it's been a while since I've worn a wedding dress... but WTF? Is this really a thing now?
This is horrible. There's not going to be any coming back from this.
Gotta be honest, I LOVE THIS FOR HER.
She is up shit creek with no paddle, and an awful big hole in her canoe.
NGL, one of my friends on FB mentioned "Hulk is dead", and I immediately went to Ferrigno, Ruffalo, or Norton. We're having burgers tonight.
So happy to hear this!
100% a festering bag of dicks.
Because any woman who doesn't 'look' like someone's idea of what is female is now at _physical risk_. "Well that's just my opinion" Your opinion is garbage and so are you. Some 20-something 'just wanting to debate' me.
"Oh, but that's not what happens.." Really? So tell me - what kind of joke can you make about transgender women that doesn't objectively make their lives more difficult or dangerous? "Their looks!" This DEFINITELY makes their lives more difficult AND dangerous - along with all womens' lives.
This. I had an argument with a guy who's all 'comedy can punch every-way' I'm like.. what's funny about picking on an already marginalized group of people, and making their lives objectively harder by reinforcing stigma and stereotypes?
I also should admit, I clicked on the bassoon quartet that was linked at the end of the video, because bassoons!
But, as you know, I have ZERO bedside manner. Which is why I didn't go into medicine.
Surprisingly, it went ok. There's no sign of swelling or infection, so as long as that continues, I think it'll be fine. Someone has definitely learned something about a calendar though.
I'm very lucky that I haven't had many digestive issues since yeeting mine.
Ok, that's a new one for me!
What the fuck was that word salad I just read?
He speaks my fucking language.
My first time with him was during the 90's when he sat in front of the House, and when talking about Native Americans in CT made the comment, "They don't look like Indians to me." while trying to block them opening a casino.
The wasps here are BRUTAL in August - they're fucking EVERYWHERE. I bought a zapper simply because I can't enjoy being outside without a dozen of those little bastards dive bombing me.
SOMEONE.... forgot about their Dr's appointment today so they could get their stitches removed. Guess who had to take the stitches out, instead? SOMEONE in this house is damn lucky I actually own a suture removal kit.
WW have most benefited from DEI, but the majority of us will never admit it. We like to lie to ourselves a lot :/
The worst fucking timeline.
'Colored'? Your sheet is showing. Might want to take care of that shit.
Making French Dip sammiches with the leftover prime rib was probably my smartest decision this week. Holy. Shit. SOOO GOOD
Thank you! Followed back!
Thank you! I mean, what were they gonna do, fire me? I was moving to Europe in a week :D
I wore a T-shirt that said, "If assholes could fly, this place would be an airport"
He simply has no shame.
I'm sorry! I've been buried in work and family stuff!
Um.... can I take the 5th?
Oh I'm so sorry. I hope she feels better soon.
OMG OW! I'm so sorry! I hope Zia is ok and that you're ok too!
Petty is the BEST color.
Oh, I am so sorry! He was such a wonderful companion for you, and you were the best Mom. Big, big hugs for you and Zia.
They also have a lot of businesses which will purchase the furniture, etc., of the deceased and sell it. Hubby and his siblings did that for his mother's condo when she passed. They came in, cleared it out and cleaned it up prior to the sale.
A week and a day until music madness weekend! @durandurancom.bsky.social next Friday, and then Iron Maiden the following Monday!
I love using the shopping app here in DK. Scan what I want, add in the coupons that are available, scan that QR code and mobile pay my way out to my car. It's so much easier.
Prepped chicken for tomorrow's dinner.
Those CHEEEEEEEKS! So cunnin'!
I was in London earlier this month, and ordered buffalo wings. They actually put 3 chili pepper warning symbols on them, and it was Frank's Red Hot. And not even covered, just a few drops on each wing.
She needs to get down off her cross. Someone else needs the wood.
Chicken tonight!
All I have to say is... Tillykke, og nyd turen hjem!
We honeymooned there. My husband was in heaven; he enjoys seafood. I don't eat seafood :D But I was able to get a steak or something similar pretty much everywhere.
RIGHT?
@drneilstone.bsky.social
We need pictures!
You're not heartless at all... you're thinking in *their* best interests, and not your own.
Hey! I know De La Soul!
Congratulations!
FML I just planted out the rest of my garden today. Cukes and tomatoes and peppers and schtuff. The weather report was fine for the next week. IT JUST FUCKING STARTED HAILING. FUUUUUUUUUUUCK.
oh HELL YES
I'm too old for ballgames now lol.
I have a lump on my forehead from when I lost a ball in the lights. Do not recommend.
Yeah, it was. So I've had glasses since I was a toddler :D It's why I was put into softball - to force me to learn perspective and trajectory. After the first few months I learned to predict where the ball was going to be, and catch it with my glove rather than my body or face.
