Food prep for the week: slow cooking the obligatory thyme and paprika chicken thighs, veggies are cooking for veg puree, chili is simmering, and about to make a chicken and squash curry.

Now it smells like jasmine rice, every vegetable, and every spice in here! 😆

I have chopped about five pounds of onions alone today. Which may not be a lot to some, but this is just for two people! 😆

I am bummed that even if I suddenly became independently wealthy and could spend every second wandering, there is no way I could live long enough to become intimately familiar with every forest, river, mountain, lake.

Yes I'm afraid this is the case given what I see with my therapy clients.

Because I do all telehealth, I am in a unique position. I see people when they are staying home sick. Their friends and coworkers are not seeing them. And they usually are NOT going around telling people what has been going on.

Most of the people they know do NOT know they are sick at all, let alone to what extent. Including hospital and doctor visits and medications.

Oh FFS.

Our COPIERS should be able to work without consulting the internet for permission. Our CARS should be able to drive without calling home on the internet.

These should be press a button / turn a key and it goes. Devices are becoming (more) monstrous.

@housepanther @PhoenixGee @Tharpa @shoq Unfortunately there are plenty who do actually like him, because they see themselves in him, they see their worst actions and attributes not just excused but accepted and even glorified.

There's a parody version in there somewhere! 😂

I literally cannot keep track of which celebrities have been exposed for abuse and which publications have been exposed for right-wing propaganda any more.

"I am live outside of Tim #Walz’s residence.
A bunch of black SUV’s just rolled out.
I am not a betting man but the vibe seemed very 'this guy just got picked as VP'.
Feel free to interpret how you wish.

for those asking if I looked at the license plates to see if it’s secret service I am not a security expert

I saw big black SUV’s leave a residence and it looked like a movie and I sent the tweet

we aren’t complicated people here in Minnesota"

"Not to burst any bubbles, but the MN Gov always has this! It's a division of the state patrol called Executive Protection and they provide the security and transport to the Governor, LG, and their families. Doesn't mean he isn't the Veep, but also not a sign he is!"

"(PS) This was the answer I was looking for. I knew he [#Walz] had a fundraiser tonight but what I was trying to determine is how many SUVs is normal for a gubernatorial security detail in Minnesota."

"Just remember that no matter who VP Harris picked for her running mate MAGAs were going to spend all day Tuesday using as many internet acronyms, memes, and emojis as possible to assure the world she made the worst possible choice and they are *psyched* about it.

Do not buy it."

Hoping for #Walz 🤞

Please don't be worried about the inadequacy of the descriptor "weird."
It's a taunt, not a clinical assessment. The ridicule IS the weapon, not the terminology. And it WORKS!
The point is diminishing the illusion of invulnerability, not writing an essay. We already have experts doing that.
