So I open up the CNN website and see the headline "Trump's digs at Harris stir fears he'll attack election outcome". I mean, spoiler-alert, Trump is going to attack the election outcome.
Xander: Just once I'd like to run into a cult of bunny worshippers. Anya: Great. Thank you very much for those nightmares.

I read that headline this morning, Gud, and I had the same reaction. It's a water-is-wet kind of news story: when he loses, of course he's going to cry foul because he's a giant baby-man.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
In good election news, Inflation is under 3% for the first time since 2021. That's a big boost for the Dems.

That's a big boost for the Dems.
Okay, Democratic party: please continue to not fuck shit up. Run with the inflation news.

I feel bad, because someone's Walgreen's delivery ended up on my porch, and after knocking on the neighbors' door to see if it was theirs (DoorDash for them often ends up on our porch), all I could do was make a post in the neighborhood FB group and the FB group specifically for our street, saying "I have your Walgreen's delivery! Because it contained coffee creamer, I brought it inside to refrigerate the creamer so it won't go bad. If this is yours, I'll get it to you!" (The delivery does not have a prescription; just coffee creamer and some non-food sundries, one of which is a wrist brace, so I really want to get it to the person who ordered it.)
I hope the person who ordered it sees my post(s).

Oh how weird, Steph—it didn’t have any info on it?
I woke up with a migraine and took meds and now my head doesn’t hurt but my shoulders and back feel like i used them too hard yesterday (I didn’t).

No, which is frustrating! Because DoorDash will have a receipt with a house number, so we know it belongs to the next-door neighbors. This one is a mystery. (Though maybe I should check the bag one more time to see if there's any kind of identifying info.)

Okay, definitely no kind of receipt or any other identifying info. Nothing written on the bag, nada. I hope whoever ordered it sees my FB post.

It's been so weird seeing the Dems in array lately.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
AOC tweeted "Dems in disconcerting levels of array" which I love
That does sound hella awkward, Jess, but now it's all handled and you get an adulting gold star!
PInky toes hurt way more than seems reasonable whenever they get smashed
I have been musing a bit on Romantasy mostly because the word itself makes me think someone is getting their head bitten off (which I might want to read about, honestly, but it's not really how they go). I have found myself weirdly resistant to micro genre descriptions even when they are of things that I know I like and I just today figured out that it's because they feel like they come with checklists that qualify whatever it is to be classified in them or not and that's the part I don't like. Maybe I can reframe the whole thing in my head now.
