Congrats on your new place 🛖 I'd like to suggest lamps if you don't have them. Both table and floor. Overhead lighting sucks eggs. Speaking of, if you like them, hard boiled eggs are the the easiest yummiest snack to keep on hand. Let's see. Throw rugs. Ottoman. Putting a towel under your cutting board keeps it from sliding. Meet your neighbors and bake them some cookies if they seem nice.

I wish every lib would read it.

Well, it's David Sedaris in the New Yorker. No undecided average bystander will ever see this essay. It could not possibly be more in group and smug than this

It shouldn't be surprising this is what David Sedaris' political analysis is like but it's still disappointing

Get an anthology. Decide if you want just contemporary poetry or if you wanna go way back and read romantics or whatever. Then see what stands out to you as you flip through. Or pick a region and see who's come from their. Or a time and place if you wanna know who wrote the poetry of a period of interest to you. Or check the literary awards and see who won/ was nominated in poetry that look good. I recommend the National Book Critics Circle Awards.

If it was in the guys section you'd never think anything of this design. It'd be " a shirt with a hot chick on it".

I'm on Podcast Addict. I used to have Podbean. I forget why I ultimately switched. But I was definitely put off by the random live radio shows it would serve up frontpage and definitely by these suggestions as well. It made me wonder if their was any agenda, or if these shows are really so popular that it was just an honest reflection of what people listen to for them to be always in my face. Ended up listening to a lot of Mark Levin. Just kidding! Also, I remember having to remember to turn off automatic downloads anytime I followed a new show or else end up having to delete tons of accidentally download eps

"seeth if you bring up that hitler was a vegan" - gee are you maybe bringing this up to make an obnoxious stupid argument? I'm not vegan, just amazed someone can fail to relate to the reactions to their behavior

I member this. Good to keep sharing though, 1. Cuz she's fine. 2. He has female fans, unbelievable as it is and it's good for them to be reminded what an ugly person he is. He really had to go "not beautiful". What a jerk

bluetooth headphones. love being able to stay active without the buds yanking out of my ears all the time.

This is probably a worthless unnecessary comment but I started Foundation Trilogy by Asimov once and it was the driest most emotionally stunted shit I've ever read. But then this is pretty much how I feel about most sci Fi fantasy. The first five or so Lethem novels are really awesome though, I'd reccomend those.

Nevermind I see you answer this

Was it expensive?

Maybe you can put money on a different kind of spending card. I don't know what to call it. Like a refillable card. This is what my gf does to buy things online and it may not show your info that way. She does it so her purchase doesn't connect anything to her primary account. Edit. Ah I see someone has kind of described this already but I'll leave the comment anyway for post activities sake I guess

Using the trunk as a plate? Standing in the parking lot? Yeah that's good living

this is funky son

Same. I do wonder what the genuine effects on children but I think some parents probably made it worse freaking their kids out about what was being done to them

Pretending to have been agressed against as an excuse for being a violent fascist is classic. That's where this somber " I wanted peace but no" talk is headed

sorry, I think this rules. The biggest stupidest anti vaxxers in the US go around saying, " those covid authoritarians made me have mental issues because I couldn't go to church or restaurants or the gym or online date and I was so victimized." I don't know what they're saying the impact on kids was, but it is also probably being overblown by a media that knows people will pay attention to debates like this
