Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yeah, like that! Fancy cheese and fancy pickles!

Note how I used the extra-fancypants term "cornichon" and not the lowly pedestrian "gherkin."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Gherkins are clearly the People's Pickle.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I like jalopenos in a spicy cheese spread. But I don't look for cheese with the hot peppers pre-loaded. Leiden cheese with the caraway seeds is pretty tasty.

Just finished watching the PBS Hamilton documentary. So good!

Mmm, now I want gherkins. I already had aged gouda and an apple for lunch.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Oh Jesse, that is beyond heartbreaking. No words do justice to that kind of pain.

What is it going to take for those R*ddit asshats to connect actions with consequences?

I think too many of them don't view other people as, you know, actual people. They get that their shit has consequenses but as long as it isn't them getting shot or arrested, it's titilating and amusing.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I like all the chesees and all the pickles. Not necessarily all at once, but to every time there is cheese; a time for sharp cheddar, a time for brie, a time for pepper jack, a time for dill havarti. Etc.

I'm about to meet brenda for a drink (!!) and will probably have to find some cheese and/or pickles as well.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Matilda is all about the cornichons and that is how her favorite 5th grader (from last year) nicknamed her Funny Little Pickle. Because I packed them in her lunch.

Can't swim, baking cookies. 2 batches snickerdoodles dough chilling, chocolate espresso with fireball in the works.

I possibly am avoiding anxiety,
