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

I consider The Container Store as the Atheist's version of Heaven. I want to go there when I die.

Oh wow that would be so nice.

Punishingly Intricate

We'll have Juneteeth as a company holiday for the first time in 2021!

Juneteenth is now a state holiday in MA!

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

That's awesome, lisah!

I want to go there when I die.

It's been a while, but I don't remember a coffin and urn section

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We had Juneteenth last year, so now we'll see what happens next year! (one of those should be "this year," I guess.) But we get all the time off, as you may have noticed.

I mean, an urn is a container!

Usually when I think of New Year's Steve I think of Steve Rogers, but this year maybe Steve Trevor?

Juneteenth will be a Saturday, are y'all getting Juneteenth (observed) off? That seems more momentous, somehow.

I need a gif from The Big Lebowski mentioning modestly priced receptacles and somehow working in The Container Store now

I'm watching cooking shows and drinking tea while watching ltc cycle between dressing up like a princess, running around with a sword and shield, playing with her new pink haired doll, and playing with her new robot dinosaur that roars. It's delightful!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Work gave us day after T'Day and Christmas Eve as extra days off...

EXTRA days off? Don't most people who work in offices get those as a matter of course? I know retail made a big deal out of Black Friday (up until this year, anyway), but I didn't think that was a thing for most white collar jobs, and around here everything but convenience stores and pharmacies are closed on Dec. 24th.
