The Netflix show The Beast In Me features a storyline about a real estate development called Jarvis Yards and a character named Martin Jarvis and I can’t help thinking he’s related to this guy.

Suggested we go out for Thanksgiving so my parents wouldn't have to cook/clean but that was NOT WELL RECEIVED.
Going to consult Guinness--must be some kind of world record to have never had a single good idea in 47 years.

i had a good few days of higher energy and, if not really higher spirits, at least a greater threshold for Horrid Nonsense
that era is concluded. I am now in a new era of feeling sad and bad.
our scientists project this era will last for between 1 and 30 days.
thank you for your patience

Kenan is the poster child for us Xennials who found a steady job with full benefits in the ‘00s and has clung to it for dear life ever since

If you are a billionaire, that is a moral failure on your part.
there’s no difference in what is available to you between $900M and $1B, other than status.
you should be embarrassed that you did not aggressively donate enough of your money to charity before accidentally crossing the $1B threshold.

"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

I saw Todd Snider open for John Prine around 1995 and was instantly in love. He played at a small bar in Ames the following year; I dragged my BFF along and when we arrived, could not get in bc we were only 17.
