I recall original pilot Diefenbaker looking reasonably feral, but yeah, the dogs they used through the rest of the series were the fluffiest, best-groomed, friendliest looking "wolves" in television history.
Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Do we talk about Zoe's Extraordinary Playlist anywhere? I just caught up on the last two episodes and I kind of love the show more with each ep.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
I think it could probably go in Comedy, aurelia -- it's a dramedy but definitely on the lighter side.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Tonight, it's almost all too heavy to hold anymore. Must be something in the air.

You all are making me want to watch due South! I've seen a bunch of episodes (my BF in Boston is a huge fan) but it was ages ago. Is it streaming anywhere?
I just decided, for my own comfort TV, to dive into Star Trek (TNG). Again, I've seen a few, but so long ago I have basically no memory of them. I'll probably skip a bunch in the first season at least. I found an io9 guide to the best episodes that I'll probably stick pretty close to, but if anyone else wants to recommend must-watch eps, I'd love to hear it!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I don't think I've seen Due South at all. Hm.

Hmm, my board profile here has like two years worth of DS taglines.

Due South sounds perfect! I should dig out my dvds this evening.
I seem to recall reading that the first Deif looked the most wolfish, but he was also dumb as a bag of hammers, so they swapped him out for someone smarter.
Also, I think we had a thread about fat-free half and half that got COMMed back in the day. Something about it being a tautology and a sin against God and man?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
It is overwhelming. I asked my son why he was still wearing a bandana when his employer supplies masks and he said the regular masks were worthless with his long beard.
Yeah, masks and beards don't mix very well. When I was working at the chemical company, I had to be taken off the first responder list for spills when an OSHA inspector pointed out that beards prevent chemical masks from sealing properly.
If I can't get prefab spreadable butter, I'ma make my own: let butter sit on the counter all night, then run it through the food processor with some olive oil. that ought to do it, I figure...
Butter will actually last quite a long time at room temperature, like at least a couple of weeks, before going rancid. My sister uses those holders that you invert over a saucer of water for hers, but I just been using a glass dish with a sealable lid and it's fine.
Did my weekly shopping this morning. Stop and Shop was looking pretty barren, but the other places I went were fine. The only thing I had trouble finding was tortillas, of all things.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I was also going to comment about spreadable butter! I just keep a stick of butter in a glass thingie, no fancy water, and it's fine, and mostly spreadable. (Although my kitchen is pretty cold in the morning, so it's not always THAT spreadable...)
I love that JZ's friend's mom is a DS BNF.
Also, did you all not see the amazing CDC beard reference sheet? French fork is no, walrus is OK.
