Jesse: I appreciated the thing going around the internet about how using whatever you currently have in the house for Passover in order to avoid a current plague should be the most kosher thing.
Jessica: Avoiding plague is very much in the spirit of the holiday.
Flea, with the substantive zing of the year.

Davids:Â Looks like Neil Gaiman and Amanda Palmer have split up and she's already leaking messy drama.
Scola:Â Apparently, she posted on her Patreon that they were broken up before she told Neil himself.
Flea:Â I mean, he could have subscribed for early access.

My hair is currently at 1961 Beatle. I figure in about ten days, it will reach 1962 Beatle.

Jesse:

Atropa:
According to everyone else who replied to my friend's Twitter thread, it's supposed to be "orn'ree".
DebetEsse:
Yeah, it's definitely 2 syllables.
DXMachina:
Only if you're Yosemite Sam.

Hec:
Matilda is parked in front of her computer for her first class of high school: Ethnic Studies with Ms. Elfland.
She shooed me off when I came back from my run bringing her a hot chocolate and mechanical pencils. Clearly I am not to be on camera. Only a hand that brings cocoa.
Toddson:
As long as she doesn't take to saying, "thank you thing."
Atropa:
No, that's exactly what she should do.
