When the France election results are good

Just received the worst mansplaining of my LIFE. Remind me never to fall for it again when a man asks for advice.

I interacted with Samsonite Canada's customer service recently and received very good service BUT I think they might want to re-word this question on their followup survey?

Finally makes all those instances of my least favorite game, "Allergies or Covid," seem worth it

My son, .02 seconds after waking up: You know what I like about the new house? My toys don't move across the room while I'm sleeping Me:

Aside from the, ya know, racism of this headline... she's LITERALLY THE VICE PRESIDENT????? And before that she was a senator? Like what other job prepares you to be president? Do they think it's "DEI" when the asst manager of the Applebee's gets promoted to manager?

Subtle. Very subtle.

"They Live" but it's a set of headphones that makes racists hear how stupid they sound

I am reading this scholarly study about internet collaboration from 1997 and it's so hilarious. It basically sounds like "I scratched a message to my classmates on a stone tablet and had my wooly mammoth take it over to their house"

reskeet with a tweet you still think about

WHAT A WAY TO MAKE A LIVING

I saw a kid on the metro wearing an Eagles hat and without even thinking I said "Go Birds" He seemed confused? Like? Why is he wearing the hat then?

Independence Day feels kinda dumb now that America has made the president a king

What can my neighbor POSSIBLY be sanding? This is the second straight day he's been at it ALL DAY. Is he making artisanal sawdust?

Look, I know the world is falling apart, but I just made THE MOST PERFECT SALMON EVER for lunch (ps I don't care for the skin so my kitty ALSO had the Best Lunch Ever)

Vacuuming behind the sofa and found this post-it. Have absolutely NO memory of what kind of deranged pro/con list I was about to make

This happened bc Republicans never EVER took their eye off the ball and voted in lockstep until they captured the Supreme Court, while Democrats let the perfect be the enemy of the good and worried more about fighting the Left than the Right America had a good run, I guess

Good morning and Happy Canada Day from my house where my 10yo has been up and COMPLETELY ON since 6:50 a.m.

I never shine so much as a parent as when one of the kids says, "We're out of [something]," and I say, "Look in the [place where I already bought another one]" SUPPLY LOGISTICS FOR THE WIN
