[talking about pooping]
But what about second breakfast? What about elevensies? Luncheon? Afternoon tea?

Personal rules for drinking while flying:

No brown liqueur. Makes my head spin.

No beer in the air, though I'll have one in the airport if I have an aisle seat. The needing to pee piece.

In the sky I'll go for coffee+bailey's if it's before 5pm, vodka cran, or red wine if I want to get sleepy.

Tired: "taking off now, text you when we land"
Wired: "if we go down it wasn't an accident"

The number of calls in this Arkansas-St. John's is disgusting. Feels like NBA refereeing has left college in the dust. Maybe it'll be better in later rounds

Every time you see someone powerful acting like a craven coward in the face of this authoritarian menace, let it stiffen your own spine. We are all we've got.

Proud to report that at age 31 I have finally acquired a taste for raw onion

In these trying times, getting a filing cabinet has been a welcome boon to my mental health. Love organizing loose documents!

Apple suspended buying ads on X. So did Disney. IBM. Best Buy. Coca Cola. Chipotle. Ford. GM. Lionsgate. Macys. Meta. NBC. Paramount. Pfizer. Sony. Verizon. Warner Brothers. Volkswagen. United.

But who’s still buying ads on X? The ADL, under Jonathan Greenblatt’s instructions.

But, he added, “We saw a change in what he said on Friday, and that was noteworthy.” He said the ADL was buying ads on X, and in response to major firms suspending their ad spending, said companies “need to make their own decisions about where they want their brands to be placed.”

He said, “I hope that the other social media companies follow X’s leadership on this.”

Beautiful buildup to the United goal. Didn't think Wan-Bissaka had that touch in him

US Rangers and the likes in westerns always have legendary scouts with them (just started #3 in Lonesome Dove). For once I want to see a gang of cowpokes with a horseshit tracker that can't find anything they're looking for. Think they're headed to Spokane but end up in the middle of Montanny.

Channeling the energy of the thousands, if not millions of couples who've done it in the bed of our honeymoon retreat bnb. Learned a new move in my sleep last night.
