Just a reminder that it’s a good time of year to check if you had any unclaimed property. I found myself a couple hundred a couple years ago.

I’ll just use this as another opportunity to mention that, Patton was right about the Soviet Union.
NATO chief Rutte: "Russia has brought war back to Europe, and we must be prepared for the scale of war our grandparents and great-grandparents endured." 😳

The enshittification of social media platforms, meaning they now only serve advertisers and shareholders, is finally turning people off.
Is social media finally losing its grip on us?

My stepfather, a retired Navy Commander, eats directly over a communal dish of food and it drives me fucking INSANE.
Like, will use a pizza box, as his personal trough.
Who the fuck does that? I’m a selfish only child too, I don’t do that.
Is it a Navy Officer thing? An Officer thing?

It’s 5*F out this morning… she has zero interest in curling up on her thick pad. Deciding instead to stretch out on the hard packed snow and ice on the deck.
I’m sure my neighbors think I’m abusing this dog.

One unexpected byproduct of furthering my education is that I’ve grown increasingly frustrated, and honestly, angry at the sheer ignorance so many people in this country wear like a badge of honor. It’s not just that people don’t know things; it’s the pride they take in not wanting to know.

Lonely guys:
Self-improvement doesn’t cure loneliness.
Sometimes it just takes you so far upriver that when you come back, everyone sounds like a soft pilgrim bitching about the heat on the Congo.
Loneliness isn’t entitlement.
Sometimes it’s the result of the work.

Lonely guys:
Channel your loneliness into bettering yourself.
Study a language, hit the gym, take piano lessons, learn how to cook - or knit. Anything but whining about how you're owed companionship or blaming Women for your feelings.
You'll start feeling better right away.

This is the first season, that I can even remember, where I haven’t watched a full Steelers game.
When they signed Aaron Rodgers I swore I wouldn’t watch… and here we are. Only a handful of weeks left.
