Okie-bred, fled to Vermont in 1998. This is usually the point in conversation when I share that the Pioneer Woman & I went to the same high school. Seeking books, yoga, funds for cancer research, pickleball, recipes, ghost stories, belly laughs & peace.

Years ago we told our son we used the theme song from Unsolved Mysteries as our wedding processional. I hope he still believes.

I was shocked to learn he is only 27. My bet was closer to 40.

What?!? He enjoys reading, collecting books, contributing to a long-running group chat which denigrates women and people of color, getting lost in the rain, collecting coins and shitting his britches every time his phone rings with journalists requesting a comment.

I hope you are blessed with the rare SINGLE MOUSE. With ZERO FAMILY TIES. An adult orphan who never found the right partner and now just lives with you. Consider pricing out wee sporty roadster convertibles before forging an alliance.

Reporters need to say “ok, we will find someone who knows” then turn off the cameras and exit the space.

so do everyone's parents have a cursed tin box in the basement featuring what appears to be the Campbell's Soup Homunculus, or just mine

old ass tin box with a Campbell's Soup ad on it, featuring a bug-eyed, pig-nosed rendition of what is allegedly supposed to be a human girl. most of her face is near her chin, while her eyebrows are just below her hairline. idk how to describe her smile other than unsettling. this definitely regular human person is wearing a bow on her head and an apron, and is waving a bell at ye olde classic soup can (presumably as some sort of warning of imminent doom?)

dude be cool the homunculus can HEAR you

No Speaker Johnson, you're not going to frighten us.
You're not going to silence us. We will continue to stand up for American democracy.
The millions of Americans who have been rallying across this country, and the millions more who are planning to protest on October 18th, do not "hate America." They are not "Hamas." Quite the contrary. They love America, our Constitution and those who have fought to maintain American freedom. These protesters are ordinary
Americans who are disgusted by your plan to take health care away from 15 million and double premiums for 20 million in order to provide a trillion dollars in tax breaks for the 1%. They are Americans who oppose Trump rapidly moving our country toward authoritarianism by threatening to arrest his political opponents, intimidating the media, slashing funds for states who voted against him, deploying the military into American cities and illegally firing tens of thousands of federal employees.
You may not be familiar with the Constitution of the United States, but the First Amendment and peaceful protest have always been an essential part of what makes us a democracy. Too many Americans have fought and died to defend that democracy. We will not betray them.

I like how the news will be like “while the President claiming Portland was ruled by a giant skeleton named Mr Nibbles is not strictly true, it does speak to the anxiety of many Americans”
