Control issues and perfectionism are among my many neuroses. Twitter Diaspora. I swear a lot. I do drugs (the good kind). I'm a socialist. I studied art in school. Beyond that: US Politics, environmental conservation, mental health, organic gardening, and my employer Ramses, That Damn Cat. Sometimes I have really shitty takes. He/Him/Michael/Arrogant jackass.

This is a good point. The most durable form of government off the top of my head would be feudalism. But it's longevity can't be attributed to the majority finding it particularly enjoyable. It hinged on class divisions and greed enforced by brutal violence. Humans (at least modern humans) seem to be opportunistic and self-serving by nature. I don't know that there is a solution to that, so I am inclined to agree with you -but also hope we're wrong.

I didn't even think about those.

That brings us to eleven. Should I be counting charcuterie boards?

I truly believe Kari Lake needs a neuropsychologist and some imaging. Probably some thorazine. It's my understanding that she can become quite labile.

I think six cutting boards is a good number of cutting boards to have.

I know it's a kid's bracelet. A kid made it. I don't care if adults make fun of me. I'd rather be made fun of by every adult than get caught without it by my neighbor's ten year old daughter, who made it for me.

I think for lunch today, I will resurrect an odd, but delicious thing from the spa. The Country Cordon Bleu Wrap.

Country ham, sauteed chicken breast, Swiss cheese, mixed greens and honey dijon mustard in a spinach wrap.

It all evens out. I bought two heads the other day, but realized a few days later they had not been in the bags. I went to buy more at another store and they had ONE, just ONE head left, and it wasn't in great shape.

HA!

AHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAA!!!!!!!

Not too honest to sit on your hands for four years while dippy wrought havoc on American democracy, you fuckin' charlatan.

I just adore Bess Levin. I subscribe to VF specifically so I can read her cheeky repartee.

Well, I'm going to prison.

I just got home from the supermarket and found two heads of garlic at the bottom of my Free The New Yorker Magazine Canvas Tote that I did not pay for.

HAA!!

Pfft.

Looks like Amazon is having some issues this morning. I'm trying to order That Damn Cat's ™️ lysine chews and it's been spinning it's wheel on Proceed to Checkout for a good ten minutes. 😂

Roasted garbanzo beans! I like them plain, but they'll take any dry flavoring you give them. Wasabi soy sauce, garlic dill &c.

They're really good fresh out of the oven, but also after they've cooled and gotten crispy. Make more than you think you'll eat. ☺️

Stop calling it inflation!!! It's corporate greed!!!

Do roosters burp? I'm pretty sure that one just burped mid-crow.
