Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

The French news would be better if the French left weren't almost as rabidly antisemitic as the French right.

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

Happy birthday, sarameg!

Our wings are not tired.

I just wish for literally zero political talk, because I just cannot.

Have a wonderful, and non-political time!

So much good food, and a reminder that I really enjoy my cousins' company.

Nice! Good times with family are the way to spend holidays.

in the UK, Boris Johnson turned up at the polling place, but he hadn't brought his ID with him (which he had pushed for) and was turned away without voting

Bwah! Love it.

I hear you on the French, Plei, but they have to be better than Le Pen.

Yes, absolutely! Sadly, not as much better for French Jews as one might think, but better for the rest of France for sure.

A drive by this morning to wish my cousin a Happy Birthday! I am forgetting what she calls herself here, but she knows who she is!

Dana, I know it's a year away, but I think you need to put this in your "places to try in Richmond" file: [link]

Also, it's beastly out there.

I have one more workday to get shit done before NASCAR. Wish me luck!

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

I had to be up stupid early for a meeting with some of our folks in the UK, and I can't even go back to bed afterward because I have ANOTHER early meeting. This is one of the downsides to being a manager.
