god, i love bureaucracy...

Oh my god this kills me. Carol is the devil. Sometimes I wonder if I should just give up on my life and get a job in a government office where I can be the least efficient employee in the world and still get paid. Alas, I'm not yet miserable enough.

added some zodiac themed backgrounds made from a set of old placemats I thrifted. two versions because my friend said the original green is disgusting lmfao (disagree)

I share a nostalgia with you for the preparation of beans/peas. In my case it was pigeon peas. Grandma used to go to la plaza and buy them by the pound, and sit me with her to shell them. I remember being being leery, as worms were prone to slither out of nowhere! Your lovely writing makes we want to grow some beans next year myself 💖

@dicjournal Yes, there's something really peaceful about methodically snapping beans. They're my favorite thing to grow. I was worried nine plants was way too many, but I've been loving eating beans so often

This post made me hungry.

I think you should keep Pinky. It doesn't sound like you have all the other stuffed animals from your childhood. Keep this one, at least until the thought of giving her away feels right and not like something you need to convince yourself to do.

DADDY APPLE DELIGHT I've been keeping more little guys lately but they have a special little guy shelf now and I sometimes take one in my car or my purse when I feel like a need a traveling companion. I would also not be able to part with those ponies.

Favourite childhood plush is a quest item and must be kept.

Yeah, I threw her back up on the shelf for now. The ponies too. But I will probably get rid of those. Maybe.

Keep Pinky !!

keep Pinky! she is so unique. also i feel you on the MLPs. i am one degree away from becoming a toy collector but thankfully i do not have the funds or the space. but those sea ponies sure are tempting!

@shnu-world There are also baby sea ponies that are just as fun

uh oh. don’t tell me this!! :’)

7 is a really random number for something that cooks eggs

I LOVE deviled eggs. I miss going to family reunions solely for the plates of old people eggs.

Yay on your first deviled egg venture! Also - are you traveling the web without AdBlock and UBlock Origin on your browser??? 👀 Sacrebleu!

@divergentrays I have been! 🥴 For some reason it didn’t occur to me, but I guess I should rectify that

finally, an award for those of us who paid to see the emoji movie

"Film nerd"? "Cinephile"? "Happy to be here", here being the cinema where beloved classic film The Emoji Movie is currently being screened?

Nope, just "I paid to see The Emoji Movie." 😂 Might need a hard refresh for it to show up. However, those other ones also apply obviously

Always a good day to reread Zurac, also, HOW is every single line in the "I run a startup, and I'm using my brain very regularly" aborcombie article SO funny. While also being sort of upsetting.

It's funny because I have been following Susan Miller's Astrology from a Toronto newspaper in 2003 to website in 2026 so when I see someone else mention her in passing I think "that Susan Miller?!"

@manulzone I also like this one: “At one point, we all got arrested and interrogated because the authorities didn’t know why we were shirtless.” 🥴

@litda Yes, that one! I've also followed her for years. It killed me that she has eight $800 pillows (she also bought her daughter eight of them!) but thought $37 for olive oil is too expensive! (I have thought about this way too much.)

9 year payoff since seeing the emoji movie in theaters with a now ex boyfriend…!!!

Master of Disguise is a fave around here and you should've heard the SNORK! sound that came out of me when I read the link name :) Very cool slash possibly permanently scarring page, LOVE IT

I too used to just whack the miniputt ball quite hard just looking to have a good time. It's different when it's indoor miniput, far more exciting bouncing off walls.

Looking forward to reading the deviled egg review! Regarding dish soap, I know that Dawn's formula was "improved" and after that people complained it didn't work as well. I think it's just that everything is getting enshittified these days.

"The blue one is his, obviously." hahahaahahaha

That coat rack is incredible

@simplescott Right! I just want to hit them and see what happens. @divergentrays That’s what I figured. So irritating!

@sneekrealm Somehow he didn’t find that joke as funny as I do 😂 @ratlands I had to have it! I’m not sure but Google tells me it could be part of Pierre Sala’s pencil line that usually goes for way more than thrift store prices. I really want to find a pencil shelf!

My daughter has a similar coat rack in her room! It really does tie the room together imo ^_^

my gf and i just started watching Nirvanna the Band the Show! one more season then we'll watch the movie (tho i hear its better if you go in blind? oh well.)
