I asked these same questions over on another site and was told by someone I do not know that since I wanted to define every word I lacked wisdom and that everyone who truly believed the Bible would believe just like the commenter believes. They really haven’t thought things out.

My timeline is full of people talking forcefully about things that, while important, I can only handle so much of in a given day before I spiral and shut down. So I’m getting ready to make some popcorn and put on some Mystery Science Theater 3,000 on Tubi and log off for a bit. Ya know?

It’s Mechanical Pencil Day! Always on point and never needing a sharpener, give three clicks (no more; no less) for the writing tool that says, "Lead the way!" * it’s graphite, I know ** for pencils, the black Ticonderoga #2 is superior *** I prefer the Sharpie Roller 0.5 for writing, overall

Sitting at my desk working and hear a big splash in the pool and I know who it is! I hope he wasn't too freaked out by all of the fireworks last night, poor big buddy.

Rewatching The Office and I have reached Season 7 Episode 9, wherein it is revealed that, if the characters of The Office were real people living in Northeast Pennsylvania, I would - according to show canon - be Dwight Schrute’s cousin.

I am glad this piece about the Heritage Foundation threatening civil war if the left doesn’t accept a monarchy came out in the WaPo. More like this, please.

It’s National Country Music Day: from Merle Haggard, Patsy Cline, Hank Williams, and Johnny Cash to Dolly Parton, Garth Brooks, and the Chicks, to Kacey Musgraves and Niko Moon, rosin up that bow and play that golden fiddle with themes of love and love and loss and friends and drinks and revenge.

I hope everyone has a good day today except for the transphobes, and in particular I hope a disappointing day for the transphobic rent-a-cop that thought I would agree with him.

Fireworks cause more distress than they do joy. I do not like them, and hope for you and your companion that either it is rained out or the time passes mercifully quick

Tomorrow I am reading 1/3 of the Declaration of Independence at our local historic site. Then I will come home and sit down with fresh Pimm’s Cup and watch Jaws. Later, there will be hot dogs and Doritos and beer.

Compliment Your Mirror Day! Whether it’s full-length, compact, or rearview, take a moment to look in the mirror (you handsome devil, you) and appreciate your unique beauty. To everyone out there: you’re amazing just the way you are! And to any Lasombra vampires out there, this is true for you, too.

Happy "I Forgot" Day! Embrace all those moments when our minds just blank out. Forgot to reply to that email? Missed a friend's birthday? No worries! Laugh off the slip-ups and remind yourself it's okay to forget sometimes. And if there’s some thing you’d like to forget, today’s the day to do it!

It’s fitting, on international joke day, to share the funniest joke in the world. Be warned, this joke can prove fatal, and not even the sound of somber music played on gramophone records and the chanting of laments by the men of Q Division can create an aura of protection. And now, the joke:

The radar says we will have storms from 3am to 3pm. Depending on the nature of the storm I will either awake in pain or sleep soundly through my alarms. Going to rest now in hopes of hedging my bets either way
