This is where someone would pat themselves on the back and say, "parenting done right." IDK, I think parents who force their own interests on their kids are pathetic. I'm not calling you out. You showed them to her, she didn't take, you both moved on. Kids can pick and choose their own thing.

I enjoyed listening to WUMB Boston until several months back. There seemed to be a shift in programming. I enjoyed the eclectic mix of modern and classic indie/folk music, but a shift seemed to happen, and I don't enjoy it the same. It's too bad, I considered it an oasis from life's troubles.

I recently caught up with the 90s monsters episode of Purple Stuff Podcast and checked out one of their of their picks, Split Second (1992). Starring Rutger Hauer and Kim Cattrall. It was as terrible as I imagined, but fun to watch! @dinosaurdracula.bsky.social @sludgecentral.bsky.social

Does anyone else have someone you live with that continues to initiate conversation after you have said "goodnight"? It routinely happens to me, and it's very trying. Once I have said "goodnight," I'm not looking to continue conversation, I'm starting to decompress and shut down.

Found a free 22" tv, perfect for a little gaming nook. However, I'd love to have words with the design team. They did not leave enough room for cables to fit the HDMI port, and so far, none of mine will fit. I do love that it has RCA, component, and coax input. I'm looking for an adapter that fits.

My go-to breakfast place did try to be trendy and start serving booze, but they still kind of have the reputation of being a greasy spoon, so it hasn't caught on. Best place in town, rarely a wait and they have high turnover. Most people are in & out. Food is GOOD and comes out in <10 minutes.

There are a few "brunch" spots in my area, but I've only been to one. The wait was 45 minutes, which wasn't terrible, and I was meeting a friend, and that's where she wanted to go. Otherwise, I would have vetoed. The others I've never been because I hear there's almost always an hour+ wait.

Hmm... I thought so. I feel like breakfast spots that don't serve alcohol there is rarely a wait, and if there is, it's almost always <15-20 min. People are in and out. The places that market themselves as "brunch" where they so serve cocktails tend to be a lot longer wait because people linger.

I've found that a lot of their stuff is seasonal, too. Sometimes, you gotta stock up. I wish I had one that was convenient for me to shop at. I rarely go because while there are 3 in my area, they are all about 30 min away from home, and even if I went from work, it would be out of my way.

Sometimes, I wonder if I'm mentally ill or if I've just been programmed from the time I was a child to mindlessly, needlessly, & endlessly consume. I'm willing to bet it's a fair bit of column A and a whole lot of column B.

TFW, your co-worker is "mad" at you, so they stop talking to you, but you're like "finally, some peace & fuckin' quiet!". ✌️

One Christmas, I received several Captain Power figures and vehicles from my aunt. I had never heard of Captain Power, and the gimmick was slightly too advanced for my age. I liked the figures, though. She later told me that I did not appreciate them. I guess she thought she had a homerun. 🤷‍♂️

I was recently introduced to the expression "don't yuck someone's yum," which I appreciate. It also occurs to me that the Thing you're yucking could be the only thing keeping someone tethered and sane. So, by trashing it, you are not just insulting the Thing, but you're also insulting the person.

Bless! As someone whose preorders were canceled, I was getting concerned.

Mine's arriving Friday. I have zero attachment to the character, but I'm still really looking forward to it!

I had the California Raisins bag. The liner inside was scratchy AF!

Colorforms went hard in the 70s & 80s. Here's a great retrospective on Colorforms by Mel Birnkrant, the Creative Director who worked on the brand. archive.org/details/thec...
