Who makes a house with 8 bedrooms and 1 bathroom?! Is this a medieval castle? Do some of the bedrooms have chamber pots? There are people with 1 bedroom apartments who have more toilets and sinks and definitely more soap than this.
You're dame right I won't live there.
If you want to do something like this, why not buy a $150k home in a small town in Italy, France, Spain, or Mexico, instead of having nine people share one bathroom after they eat at a restaurant called "Stinky's?"

This was the first election I voted in and I had been so excited about it. Needless to say, the outcome and how things were handled made me perpetually jaded.

Well I don't want to jinx it and it's still early, but it sure does look like a lot of our local leaders are coming through in terms of standing up to Operation Catahoula Crunch.
Here's hoping they can keep the momentum going.

“Why are folks getting dumber?” Because they don’t read. “Why aren’t men as romantic & poetic as they used to be?” Because they don’t read. “Why are people so vulnerable to propaganda?” “Why is everyone a conspiracy theorist?” Because they don’t read. Because they don’t read.

Oh you put holes in your muffler? Yes everyone thinks you're so cool and big and bad. That's exactly the effect it has. Sure.

I just saw a Waymo and a Cyber truck on the same block.

Went to a funeral today for Krissy's uncle, Ron. He was a good guy and had a well-lived life. Tell the people you love that you love them, okay? Thanks. Here's a dog and cat, living together.

LOL... Pentagon released a new AI military chatbot and it immediately pointed out that Pete Hegseth is a war criminal.

Went tropical instead of Christmassy because it's 70-something degrees.

Damnit.
I was just talking the other day about how I haven't been cat called in months and it was nice to be left alone.
I put a dress on for dinner later after work, and sure enough some goofy old man had to break the streak. 🤣

On Nas's new album, he refers to himself as "Mr. Cryptocurrency Scarface" and this is yet another reason why we have to keep AI out of music, so that we can understand how authentically embarrassing some of our favorite artists have gotten.

Why is UNO withholding information about whatever threat they thought was legitimate?

It was the sweetest moment I’ve witnessed during the war.

This stupid weather. Hot today, cold the next. Then hot, then cold. Pick a lane!
Also apparently it's raining buckmoths today.

Lol this. There are too many people in cities who just really need to not live in cities. They aren't cut out for the mix of humanity all up close.

PSA if you ever order anything from Nordstrom Rack online, always choose the option to have it shipped directly to you. I thought having it shipped to the store would be faster but no, apparently it takes them like a week to process pickups after they're delivered. 🙄

I had to have a "conversation" with AI customer service on the phone today. Did it technically work? Yes. Did I still kind of hate it? yeah.

ICE was also at the Magazine Street Breaux Mart, worried about the folks in the restaurants on that block and contractors in the neighborhood #nolasky
They left, unclear if they detained anyone.
