Made something for the work holiday party and I used gluten free dough to accommodate one of my coworkers and either I did something terribly wrong or gluten free dough is disgusting

Okay I get that you shouldn’t microwave seafood at work, but what about seafood takeout? 🤔

Went into #JESC completely blind and had a great time. The winner wasn’t one of my favorites but the overall quality of the songs/performances was better than any of the other years i’ve watched

Last year I swore that this year would be the one where I was totally on top of the holidays, just totally crush it. And now I feel so unprepared and anxious about it all, I guess there’s always next year

I guess it’s good I never went ahead with that Eurovision themed license plate I had been thinking about

These are the boycotting countries in #eurovision:
🇸🇮 Took part even when they financially couldn’t in 2013, debut in 1961;
🇮🇪 7-time winner, only country to win 3 in a row;
🇳🇱 Host in 2020+2021;
🇪🇸 Country that never withdrew since debut (1961-2025);
🇮🇸 99% viewership + permanent ESC museum exhibition.

In good music related news JADE’s THAT’ SHOWBIZ BABY! THE ENCORE is great, but I can see why most of these songs didn’t make it onto the original release of the album. I’m still obsessed with Frozen and i’m loving Church, If my Heart was a House, and Use Me.

Can’t stand when people shorten Washington, d.c. to just Washington, unless there are clear context clues I always assume they’re talking about the state not the city

Spain had not skipped a contest since joining in 1961. The Netherlands were one of the original seven. Ireland is a 7-time winner. The ESC is losing some really important countries in the fabric of its history. #Eurovision

The discontinuation of the penny is already causing headaches at my job. We’re probably going to have to round things up which i’m sure the public will love

Part of me fears that Israel will dish out more cash in an effort to replace Spain as a big 5 five country

I do not understand why people spatchcock, it’s just unnecessary

As if discussing people’s weight isn’t weird enough I find the discourse around Wicked: For Good especially strange because they filmed both movies at the same time

Just found out my dad’s former mistress works down the hall from me at my new job, happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Got to work and realized I forgot to make coffee this morning, hopefully this isn’t a sign of how the rest of the day will go

I’m having trouble getting myself to care enough to read up on the Eurovision news, I want to but it just doesn’t bring the same joy it used to

I love the whole "I don't have kids in school anymore, I shouldn't have to pay taxes that go to the public school" argument from people.

It's the classic "I got mine, fuck you."

I have no kids.

I never want kids.

Take more of my tax money and put it towards schools and not cops.

Thank you.

I can’t believe how acute this grief is. I’ve lost family members before so I thought I understood grief, but losing a dog like Jaffa has been a completely different experience. I still can’t believe our baby is gone, I miss her so much 💔
