A power outage six minutes into the Olympics isn’t a great start.

If Altuve were actually taller he might have caught that ball at the wall. 😆 #mets #LGM

Baked thought of the evening: is the reason that sharps and flats are to the LEFT of a note in musical manuscripts because Romance languages place the adjective before the noun? blue house = casa azul (house blue word-for-word) F# = manuscript sharp then F

I don’t wanna live in interesting times.

Feels like reverse Christmas Eve from hell

Somewhere right now the phrase “William Henry Harrison” is being used as a verb.

This disease is really lonely sometimes.

I know I only bought it two nights ago and delivery takes time, but I really wish I had my tenor saxophone now. Yes, I am aware the rest of my family is asleep.

I don’t think my psyche is ready to absorb the impact of the events coming over the next few weeks.

Hive mind, help! Do you know of a list of the best (or worst or most unique) movie sequels by number? I.e., what’s the best Four? Seven? Ten? (Is there even a ten?) For example you cannot dissuade me otherwise, but the best Five is [Police Academy 5:] Assignment Miami Beach.

Regarding Greenland, what exactly is NATO’s stance on a member nation attacking another member nation?

Outlook always yells at me for accessibility issues in my meeting invites so today I actually clicked on their suggestions to see what I could do. The issues were within the Microsoft Teams meeting invite boilerplate. Come on, guys. Fix your shit.

WISE MAN 1: Hey, I heard this cool fuckin baby is about to be born, want to go check it out?! WISE MAN 2: What is wrong with you

I’ve watched Christmas Vacation a million times. I JUST noticed that Bethany asks Clark if “Rusty is still in the Navy?” because there’s another Navy family member visible when Clark watches the family film from 1955! Her dementia must conflate the two. Great attentive writing!

If you are watching the meteor shower tonight, here's an easy guide to what's falling through the atmosphere.

I feel like the least appropriate medium for sexting is Microsoft Teams.

Raw milk is one of those ideas that can really only take hold when people haven't seen a cow. if you see a cow from let's say ten feet or less you immediately understand the problem that pasteurization is solving
