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.

DH has finally joined me in keto which makes it a lot easier for me.

I bet.

That is so sus.

I am honestly ready to believe any and all conspiracy theories on this.

ION, the extra smushing is done and apparently all is clear. So, thank you Kaiser, for that needlessly expensive 24-hour freakout and follow-up I guess. (I just knew the tech wasn't quite doing it right yesterday.)

Yay clear! And I too am willing to believe many conspiracy theories about this.

That is so sus.

Ha! I would say I " I see what you did there" but I only "see" by cultural osmosis so I probably don't really. But still.

Yay clear!

I am hoping it turns into an interesting court case but I'm not certain it will. Conspiracy theories are definitely on the table. It's just so easy to come up with plausible ones.

I got some Thai soup for lunch becuase I have some congestion, and I noticed that it has cute little red peppers that I assumed would kill me if I ate them and minutes after thinking that I accidentally crunched down on one. Not dead yet, but it's pretty dang hot.

I was desperately hoping for an "I see what you did there," so I'll take it! (Also, my joke was entirely based on cultural osmosis, since I've never played Among Us.)

I have played it, and I was totally about to type, "I see what you did there," so there you go.

Yay, clear!

Aw, shared recognition of the cultural significance of something neither of as has direct experience of! The best kind of seeing what you did there.

Now tagless for your comfort.

And now they’re claiming he had a manifesto?

I think Cindy referred to it as a “minifesto.” Three pages.

Under the Desk News had some good in-depth reporting which laid out a few more motives.

I certainly don’t think murder is a good solution to this systemic problem. And I’ll note that a New York jury found a man not guilty of killing a mentally ill homeless man in a choke hold.

I am willing to bet that this case definitely goes to court and discovery will be a PR nightmare for UHC.

I went back to work today. Man, I missed being at work! My first request was to help a five year old find mermaid books. I have the bestest job!

Oh, that is awesome! Mermaids almost never come up at my job.
