I finished building the Lego Lighthouse and then I realized I forgot to put batteries in the power box for the light. Now I have to do a significant disassembly to fix my error and rebuild

I’m taking these three days off before Thanksgiving. Today we’re helping my in-laws with some clutter mitigation and Barnaby is going to the groomers for a bath and trim. Something tells me I’m not going to get much relaxing done before the really busy end of the week

But I know something about you
You went to Cranbrook, that's a private school
What's the matter, dawg? You embarrassed?
This guy's a gangster? His real name's Clarence
And Clarence lives at home with both parents
And Clarence' parents have a real good marriage

There is a post circulating on Bluesky encouraging the moving of a frozen turkey straight into a pot of hot oil. We are combating this misinformation the best way we know how - through the power of dance music.

The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
Of the big lake, they call Gitche Gumee
Superior, they said, never gives up her dead

the Harvard Crimson called Epstein a “child sex offender” while the Chronicle of Higher Ed called him a “disgraced financier” and that pretty much sums up where we are with higher ed journalism

Now fire him, Harvard.

Of course he’s now for releasing the #EpsteinFiles. He probably had Bondi destroy the ones he’s all over

I had a dream I found myself in an alternative universe & my journey began finding my dog as a stray, shivering on the street. Broke my heart because he was indeed a stray & he’s just the sweetest doggo. I hate thinking of him being alone and having to fend for himself. So now, It’s cuddles o’clock.

Pam Bondi has now assigned a prosecutor to look into Epstein's ties to Democrats.
If this investigation was legitimate, why wasn't this investigation opened months ago?
If this investigation was legitimate, why isn't everyone mentioned in Epstein's emails being investigated?

Trump just said he'll be ordering an investigation into Jeffrey Epstein's involvement with Bill Clinton, Larry Summers, Reid Hoffman, J.P. Morgan, Chase and other people and institutions.
Not on that list: Donald Trump. Steve Bannon.
