Every single day when my alarm goes off, the first thing I say is "Alexa, is Donald Trump alive?" Every day she says, "Yes, Donald Trump is alive and is 79 years old." It could be my imagination, but I think she sounds slightly forlorn when she says it.

It's too late for this. They were just fine sitting with the shame for days, so they can stay there. www.yahoo.com/sports/olymp...

I am making spaghetti for dinner. It's funny how when I was growing up we had a spaghetti night every week. Now I rarely have it, so I'm super excited.

Trump touts the Golden Age...for whom and when was that?

I'm done harping on the men's hockey team. They've shown at every opportunity they don't care, and that their support of women was just lip service. But for the rest of my life when I see an Olympic hockey highlight I'm going to think about the team that won gold and it was still a disappointment.

Happy Wednesday! I did not wake up this morning with a splitting headache and my shoulders hunched up to my ears because I skipped the SOTU, read a book, talked with mom. From what I'm seeing/hearing, it was the same old rhetoric for 2 solid hours, so go me with the right call!

I would rather fall down face first in yellow snow with my mouth open than watch this shit.

He looks like an overbred dog with his eyes pointing in different directions.

Damn, I really liked Bronagh Tumulty. That's so disappointing, she was a delight. I'm also really shocked by Dean Richards. He's been with WGN forever. Meanwhile, Micah survived the cut. 🙄 chicago.suntimes.com/sports-media...

Does anyone else put on those ambiance videos on YouTube? I play them all day. It's nice to look up from your desk to see a comforting cabin scene.

How are we in year 2 of tariffs and people still don't understand how they work when you can ask ChatGPT to explain it like you're 5, and it will do it for you in 10 seconds. Oh, you like being willfully ignorant? Sigh.

“People are so negative about things.” Those “people” are women who saw them laugh at a misogynist joke and took exception. But please, continue to equivocate, patronize, and dismiss the valid reactions of women who *were* a growing fanbase in your sport. www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/...

Let's talk about dumb when it comes to Scott Jennings. In every clip I've seen of him, he is fighting for his life to make a valid point while being systematically picked apart and embarrassed. The dumb part is he keeps coming back for more.

I'm sorry to hear about Robert Carradine's passing - and his struggles. Revenge of the Nerds may seem like just another 80s T&A flick, but it really started to change how nerds were perceived. It paved the way for people to be smart and sexy. Lewis Skolnick is iconic. I hope his soul is at peace.

Maybe it's time to ask women how WE define masculinity. I guarantee it would be educational.

In a world that's just shitty to women, be a Flavor Flav.

I wish SO MUCH I wasn't still absolutely pissed about the men's hockey team spoiling the joy of a win by laughing at misogynist jokes and cozying up with Kash Patel, but I really am. As a woman who works in a male dominated industry and every day has to fight to be respected, it just sucks.

I'm so tired of being disappointed in people. Is it really so hard to find a line and stand on it? I have nothing but contempt for equivocating and bothsideism. It's weak and pathetic. www.today.com/news/sports/...

I was mildly happy for the U.S. Men's hocky team even if I was kinda pulling for Canada because I knew if we won, Trump would just use it to say awful shit. But their behavior post-game is just pitiful and indicative of their values. I'm tired of being disappointed by people we should admire.

Ok, who else sang this as they read it? 😄

This weekend went by so fast. 🥺I didn't even get a chance to leave the house until this morning. Boo!

I miss Bloom County. Imagine if we had known half the country would become Hodge Podge?

Right on schedule. I said he was going to lash out at them - his own appointees - because if you do not show complete and utter fealty, you are his enemy. He thinks he’s a king.

I'm pretty sure retailers won't be rolling back prices; they will assume since we're already paying these crazy prices for food and necessities, we will just keep doing that. Makes them richer. But, a win is a win and it's a good reminder that Trump does not have absolute power.

Everyone: RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES! Trump:

Uh, oh. The hired actors have gone off script. How soon until Trump sicks his DOJ on members of SCOTUS for the betrayal?

Yeah, this day is not going to go fast enough, so I'm taking off at 11:30 and going home to make tummy friendly gingersnap cookies and relax.

I guess my goal of having at least one day without a tummy ache this week is shot to hell. Oh well, it's FRIDAY! Hooray!!

Eric Dane was so young. It’s so tragic and it just sucks.

😏 The Gare-Bears.

Let's see, do we take the word of an already adjudicated rapist who says he's, "been exonerated," or do we believe a Stanford and Georgetown graduate who served on JAG, and actively advocates for the environment, civil rights, women's rights, and the LGBTQ community? This isn't hard, people.

Charles made his mistress a queen, and Andrew was arrested for likely multiple sex crimes, but yes, please lets go on about how Harry and Meghan are the most scandalous, insufferable royals for wanting to peace out of that hot mess of a family.

While other governments are taking actions against sex offenders, ours continues to make excuses. people.com/ex-prince-an...

I think all the Dems should go to the SOTU, and right when he starts to speak, get up and walk out. Way funnier. High level petty. I’d enjoy that.

I can emphatically say I will not be watching the SOTU speech. Fuck that chode.

Time has stood still, hasn't it? It's been almost 4pm for like 6 hours.

Ooo, it's almost March! That means it's almost Sam Adams Summer Ale time. Listen, don't come at me with beer snobbery. I love my Summer Ale. It's one of my fav beers.

Happy Wednesday! Everyone here is being especially loud and annoying this morning. WHY at 7am? Ugh. So, I'm drowning them all out with Joe Satriani's Surfing with the Alien album.

Imagine being a 911 operator in Bakersfield, CA and people as far away as Iceland and Germany are dialed in and commenting on how shitty you are at your job. Anyway, TikTok apparently has the time because they have been dragging her for days.

What did they think was going to happen when they recruited militia men wannabes, basement dwelling GTA gamers, and incels?

Of course they are having the No Kings event on the ONE DAY I have plans on the calendar next month.

We just got a red flag alert. It’s February. We get those in July and August! 😳

"Boondoggle." Like his entire administration.

"I've been exonerated" is the new "Because I said so."

They announced today that a major store is about to drop ... three blocks from my house. In related news, I need a realtor because my 17 minute drive just turned into 50.

Remember when we knew everyone's phone number by heart? Someone just asked me for my SON'S phone number and I had to look it up. Man, if I got arrested my one call would have be to whoever has my childhood home number, Mike's Pizza that closed 30 years ago, Empire Carpet, Kars for Kidz, or 911.

I can't be the only who immediately thought, "So the FCC won't let me be, or me be me, so let me see ..."

Over the past seven years, we’ve gotten big things done for Illinois. And on Wednesday at noon, I will deliver the State of the State and share how we continue to move the Land of Lincoln forward.

Ugh, I slept so hard last night I have a sleep hangover.

Sigh. Do they really think someone would hang on to an 84 year-old woman who requires medication for this long? people.com/sheriff-lead...
