Our wings are not tired.

I'm...the only person left alive, with the possible exception of your aged Aunt Erma, who still uses Woot!, aren't I?

Well, I do, but then again I might be your aged Aunt!

Happy birthday to Mr. Chiclet!

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

IRS page is still telling me I qualify for a payment and they have my direct deposit information but they don't have a pay date for me. Don't know what that's about.

ION it's chicken pot pie time! I am excite!

Thrive to spite them

It's in the news that the store will reopen on May 1 with hours of 12-6. Haven't heard official word yet.

Need to jump on actually getting some masks.

now that I have eaten all the takeout (well, not quite all, I got some grocery type stuff and a Brandied Cherries Alexander that I am about to savor) NO REGERTS. Full disclosure - I am willing to spend money I don't have on groceries in a day or two. Hooray credit.

Also, am finally watching Into the Spiderverse. I would say "why didn't you tell me?" except I know everyone told me, but still! OMG so good

Hey. New board.

We got Covid money and I have no idea why or how; I thought we would be making too much money, but maybe the overseas taxes made everything confusing? Wife and I have not had the spoons to converse about what to do with it. If I were in the country, I would buy things with long supply chains, order food thrice a week with 60% tips, etc, but when I do that in Brazil it doesn't really help in the US. Since that's not really possible, my instinct is to donate a big chunk of it.

Brazil could probably use the help, too? Donating is always good if it's practical for you. Well, not always, but you know. And speaking as someone who is a cog in a supply chain, that's a very thoughtful approach.

Yeah, I'm sure it would go far in Brazil.

I'm torn on ordering things--like REI is still selling, and shipping, and I'm tempted to order some stuff. But then I went to Sierra Trading Post and they were like "for the safety of our workers you can browse but you can't order" and I'm like "hmm, fair point..." Am I being the asshole having some poorly paid REI warehouse worker ship me a sleeping bag that is utterly non-essential?
