If you missed it yesterday (and you probably did,) I launched a new store to start moving away from Teepublic, and my first new product speaks directly to the moment:

Not every joke is for everyone. Y'all have no idea how many times I take a pitch or two
If I’m commenting on something specific and you lack the context to understand what I’m talking about, sit it out. You don’t have to make jokes about everything that flies by your TL.

Postal inspectors actually are what FBI agents want you to believe they are
Okay, that explains why Spanberger is the way she is.

Not CIA, postal inspectors. The postal inspectors are amazing and have ZERO sense of humor.
TIL that before Gov. Abigail Spanberger joined the CIA, she was a Postal Inspector, which I suspect is actually where her impeccable energy comes from.

Postal Inspectors are apex predators.

I find it fascinating that as I think about it, I don’t have one of these

Like, the closest is having my feelings hurt as a middle-schooler that I wasn’t allowed to start a church-league softball game because I wasn’t actually a member of the church I was playing for so I had to come off the bench
let's hear some more of these Olympic Moments, what's your greatest personal sports-related tantrum
Yinz guys are special writers and always make me laugh.......

This is beyond relatable

I rolled a bowling bowl across a parking lot and into the woods. I drove home in my bowling shoes. I haven't picked a ball up since. Almost 24 years.

If you or your company needs someone with more than a decade of corporate comms experience plus like five years of journalism experience, DM me, I’m available

Remote or SE Michigan please, I’m not looking to move at the moment.
Why am I still here? Why am I doing any of this? I no longer believe in anything we’re doing, I’m undervalued and underpaid, why am I still here?

Why have I spent the last month working on designing an employee town hall agenda and outline that is responsive to employee feedback and improves engagement when the CEO just wants to talk for an hour and 45 minutes
February 17, 2026 at 5:02 PM
Y’all. I have never in my life seen someone just seem immediately like they belong somewhere like with this kid yesterday.

He had refused to do much research to avoid getting his hopes up, and that just made watching him yesterday so much more rewarding.
after campus day yesterday i cannot see myself anywhere but ann arbor lol. it just makes so much sense for me

I was four years old when Rev. Jackson launched his second campaign for President in 1988, and for the life of me I couldn’t understand why people were not supporting a minister who wanted to make things better for everyone.

Guess that’s when I learned racism was a thing.

Rest in peace, sir.

Oh God I think I have to meet my new boss tomorrow

Ugh, why do I have to work tomorrow. Or any day.

We were not meant to spend our lives sending emails about internal communications newsletters

Yeah, no one ever knows what you're talking about
So I guess you're already there
No one opens up when you scream and shout
But it's time to make a couple things clear
If you're afraid of what you need
If you're afraid of what you need
Look around you, you're surrounded
It won't get any better

I did the hard thing and started transitioning instead of being miserable and sad

Also I’m growing a nice rack

Monobob seems like the safe choice until you remember that Simona de Silvestro has qualified at Indianapolis more than once and she can barely keep the thing pointed down the track
You cannot walk down. You cannot scooch on your butt and cry. You must choose one of the approved Olympic methods for reaching the bottom of the course so that we can learn your true nature of your heart. Which terrifying Olympic sliding sport would you brave?

Is it weird that one of the things I say most often to the dog is me quoting Orson Welles?

"In your depths of your ignorance, what is it that you want? Whatever it is, I can't give it to you because I just can't see it."

Ghostbusters

A fit check from the gender-neutral bathroom. I need new sneakers, pretty sure these Monarchs give me away as not cis.
