sweet potato pie is the superior pie I will not take comments at this time
Everything is terrible but I hope everybody gets some pie this week. We’re kicking things off with sweet potato (there will be reinforcements).

As someone who doesn’t remember names well I had the toughest conversations with someone this week who was just an incessant name dropper. Every other word was someone else’s name and I found myself just totally disassociating from the entire interaction 💀

This is embarrassing. In 2008, I & my family went to a special school for refugees & migrants before being put in the English school system. These resources disappeared since 2010s. British people became more racist over smaller things. And catch-22, people can't integrate when you don't let them.

Can you imagine the clusterfuck if this many motorists approached an unsignaled intersection like this? And yet cyclists can just make it work. Because we can control our vehicles unlike the 2 ton murdermobiles.
Rush hour traffic in Utrecht.

Sound on 🔊 if you want to experience that rush hour IS possible without the constant, deafening noise of cars overpowering people talking.

The whole "Tuberville doesn't live in Alabama" thing is no joke. He is living in my hometown in Florida. People see him at dinner and out and about.
The Doug Jones for Governor campaign is officially active.

Jones filed his paperwork with the Alabama Secretary of State’s office on Monday to launch his official campaign committee.
Jones makes it official: Alabama deserves a governor who lives in the state
In a campaign video, Jones said Alabamians deserve a governor who won't treat the state "like a rest stop."

I don't think I have seen/heard an ice cream van in 25 years and here I am 2,000 miles from where I grew up and the one that went by is playing the identical song.

Bet you all know the one, too
