I fortunately had a chance to get used to the mask before I had to get used to the progressives... took me about a month to go down stairs without grabbing the rail CUZ WE BE RICKETY!
Hey, man, where are my pants? I have my hippo dignity!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I already knew I read lips a lot, but masking has def proved it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Any other fully-hearing person discover just how much they read lips to understand what people are saying?
Totally.

What is even happening?
Cindy what does TFG mean? All I can think is “that ducking guy”
meara, it absolutely means that to me.
People use TFG for "the former guy" a lot on Twitter, but more often than not, they also confess they parse the "F" as the f-word.
Anyhow it means the guy who held office between Obama and Biden.

I'm watching a new (to me) procedural out of Australia (Halifax: Retribution on PBS) and one of the main characters has a late teen-early twenties daughter who looks so much like Matilda it's messing with my head.
Huh. I'lll have to check. Which actor/character?

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

Timelies all!
Tomorrow Mr. S goes back to school, at least for part of the day. If he can get through 2 weeks without too many incidents, the length of the day increases. The idea is to get him back to a full day.
