Man, you just get darker and darker, and the weird thing is, your aura? Beige.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Okay that sounds like a ton of fun. Especially with the Nanita proximity. Hmm.

I am technically on BS, using minim-calibre, but honestly, I really only use Tumblr these days. I can filter out all political hot takes there, and I already get a wide variety of breaking news and varied opinions from the hundred million Substacks I subscribe to, plus the newspapers.

The last huge breaking news I followed real-time on Twitter was October 7, which kind of broke me, and then the callousness and denialism on the progressive left broke me further, with many people showing their antisemitic asses in public. I am honestly healthier without an IV drip of sucktastic.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Do I use the can of pumpkin with a best by date of Sept 2024 in some slow cooker chili or should I toss it?

Our wings are not tired.

I think it’ll be fine. Use it up!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

If it's not bulging or rusted, it's totally fine.

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

I support using the pumpkin

OK, did today’s crossword and will see if I can keep that up. Got a little time to work out whether this is would be a practical trip for me to take.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That can of pumpkin is 100% fine. Best-by dates are bullshit.
