I haven't baked for quite a while and will admit to being a traditionalist for baking, so I'd have qualms about silicone loaf pans. I received some really nice loaf pans a few years back, when I was baking a lot ... maybe I should take it up again.

Wow, Elliot Page (formerly Ellen Page) came out as trans.
I can't imagine how much courage that took, knowing how much hate he'll get for it. But fuck those people.
Even the first few people commenting seemed terribly ignorant. Sometimes I think this puzzlement is feigned, and then sometimes I think of my mom, who is super progressive, but also confused about Caitlyn Jenner.
In Covid news, the ambulances are back up. I have a several senior communities and nursing homes north of me, and there have been about five ambulances going by today. It was really high in March/April, but went back down in the summer.

Volans that sounds like it might be an awful job even if interesting and meaningful. But I too want good people working on it so...good luck?
Works has been insane this morning. Supposed to call about the puppy in an hour. Just want a nap, as I got nearly no sleep last night.

um, it's that time of year again ... here's a BRIEF (thank whatever deity watches over me) video of the White House holiday decor.
But there's something worse! From McMansion Hell. Somehow, it's worse.

Ugh, Mr. S has been awful all day. I wasn't home during the day, but he's not behaving very well at the moment. And the last two days had gone so well...

It's amazing how she manages to have decorations that are neither stylish nor homey. They are not even gloriously tacky or over the top. They're just boring.

OMG- I am zoom moderating and am so bored. They are in breakout rooms, so I had a stressful time putting them there, but now I am just sitting here in case people get kicked out. What a weird job I have! I have cleaned up my email, and almost caught up on mindless things, and I don;t have it in me to do any more non-mindless things. I also have a zoom Voicethread training at 7PM, but this doesn't end until 7:20, so I guess I get to do two zooms from two devices...

Dylan and I decided it looks like a Macy's. It's not as grim as her previous efforts, but entirely lacking the personality and thoughtfulness that literally every other FLOTUS in my recollection brought to the task.
Speaking of holiday cheer, have the address lists for the Buffista card exchange gone out yet? I haven't seen anything, but it's easy to accidentally delete a real email this time of year when every organization that's ever got my email for any reason is trying to sell me something or get me to donate to their cause.
