Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

Our vaccine-hesitant neighbors (whose daughter and Aeryn are good friends) finally got vaxxed. I'm not sure what changed their minds because I'd been trying to avoid a big blowout over it (the kids are all too young to be vaccinated for now and since it's summer all their playdates are outside) until I absolutely had to.

Ugh, I biked 28 miles yesterday and on the one hand it was a great ride but on the other hand I think I inhaled every pollen particle on the Empire State trail and my throat and sinuses are pretty pissed off about it today.

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

I just can't even with the magnets. Every time I hear about that I am reboggled.

Ugh, pollen. My sympathies.

Our excessive heat warning is supposed to run through this evening but I think today is actually normal temperatures, which is pretty exciting.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

There was a woman testifying for a state hearing and she insisted that vaccines make you magnetic. She stuck a key to her upper chest ... and (1) anything flat will stick there if you're in the least bit sweaty or use lotion and (2) keys aren't made of iron and won't be affected by any (real) magnet. Then she tried sticking the key and other things to her neck and nothing stuck. sigh ....

Now ... if the vaccines gave you a magnetic personality, or even if people thought they did, I bet the anti-vaxxers would be eager to get them.

I did not develop Magneto-like powers after receiving my Covid vaccine and let me tell you I feel LET DOWN.

Right?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Literally all I got was the ability to go out in the world with much less risk to my life and health. WTF.

You should ask for a refund.

I *still* don't have 5G.

OTOH, a lot more apps and websites seem to be asking me if they can follow my activity since I got vaccinated. Coincidence?

[ Yes ]
