Did you know that the breadth of @conductress.bsky.social ‘s love is *so vast* that it can encompass not just every one of us, but then on top of that an additional 18 other people?!?!

And I genuinely want to just go to bed now.
I don't know which is a worse possible reason:
1. I did too many activities this weekend
2. I'm coming down with something

Every time I think I'm becoming the type of person who wants to learn how to properly fold a fitted sheet, I mentally spray myself with water like I'm a misbehaving cat

this must be what it was like for Trent Reznor when he heard Johnny Cash’s cover of Hurt for the first time
Leaving Oslo today and I was finally able to find a hot dog on lefse (potato flatbread) with shrimp salad and crispy onions for breakfast at the airport.
Verdict: delicious

I am a strong believer in a maximum wage. Rather than a set dollar amount, it could be something along the lines of orders of magnitude. Maybe like 100x the lowest paid worker or something. It would still be an obscene amount of money, and if you want to make more, you gotta lift everyone else up.
Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.
McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.
Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.
See the problem?

It is no longer fluffy 😮💨
One pass of shoveling done.
Hubs had intended to swap the lawn mower and snow blower before this weekend, which likely would have warded off the bulk of the snow, but it's pretty fluffy and manageable even for my weak ass

I have had such a full day that I am now the embodiment of "if it's worth doing, it's worth doing half-assed" wrt getting ready for bed. Sure, my teeth have been flossed and brushed, but probably not as well as the dentist would like. And splashing water on my face counts as washing, yeah?
