Messages has inexplicably begun to convey my husband's reactions in French. Pourquoi?

Over Thanksgiving we stayed with dear friends in both the Palisades and Altadena. Both might have lost the homes in whose guest rooms we were so comfortably ensconced. My heart goes out to them and everyone affected by these devastating fires. Gratitude to the first responders and good Samaritans.

How, in 2024, do a female GYN office’s exam rooms not have a hook / hangers for clothing? #smdh

“Proto Pretty” by Wondermints is a perfect pop tune. Listening to it makes me smile. www.youtube.com/watch?v=05m-...

TFW you thought you’d put your phone on sleep focus before bed but you didn’t, and a text buzzes through to your watch and wakes you up after only 5 hours of sleep. 😵‍💫

Me, furiously closing the several dozen open apps on my phone: how on earth do I have that many apps going? Me, five minutes later: I already have two dozen apps open again.

Bemused at marketers frantically sending "Last chance to save!" emails as if consumers aren't well aware they'll have many, many MORE "last chances" to save, with perhaps even better discounts, every week from now until eternity.

Husband has declared tonight is the night for our annual rewatch of The Holiday. This is the way.

Hey everybody. Whatcha up for to this fine weekend?

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #45,300! Howdy, y'all. I haven't been as active here as on other platforms, but I'm here. Nice to see you.

Any Wikipedia editing experts out there? I want to create a full page for someone who's currently only listed as a redirect and I don't know how to edit that. I have the page itself drafted in markup, but want to correctly add it without incurring the wrath of the editing community. @xor.blue? TIA!

Apropos of nothing in particular, but just in case anyone’s wondering - Yes, from the stage, we can pretty much see anyone in the orchestra seats.

My dentist made a Shakespeare authorship joke the other day, and was a little *too* impressed when I immediately countered with a Marlowe reference. Dude, you're not the only one in this room who attended college, you know.

You’d think FB wouldn’t suggest as a friend someone with whom you were already friends, but has apparently unfriended you (and the suggestion is how you discover this). But you’d be wrong. Sigh.

Because no one else is posting fireworks photos tonight… JKLOL. Here’s mine, of the finale of the Magic Kingdom display, taken from about a mile away.

Anyone who works in warm-weather hotels / resorts: what percentage of guests use the pool(s) on an average day?

On July 2 2009 I was diagnosed with cancer. On July 2 2023 I got to hang out with my 1-year-old granddaughter. I bow down to science, and the experts harnessing it, for saving me 14 years ago. #deepthoughts

For anyone who cares about such things: we had a transcendent meal at Kadence in Orlando tonight. If you have the budget and can snag a ressie (they only have 9 seats), you won’t be disappointed.

IDK, this seems like kind of a big deal.

Jack Lord’s sunglasses in Dr. No are a MOOD.

SHAG x Golden Tiki. Being released next weekend. Manifesting that one of the prints will be mine. #ihavespoken

I don’t have student debt but I believe in student debt forgiveness. I can’t get pregnant but I believe abortion should be legal. I’m straight and cis but I am pro same-sex marriage and trans rights. Welcome to It’s Not Always About You 101.

Maybe it's just me... but if I don't know you and you're sending me unsolicited email about your product or service and asking me to click on a link to your calendar and schedule time with you to discuss it... just don't. Not gonna happen. Like, ever. Kthxbai.

You guys! My pal Quinn Cummings @quinncy.bsky.social is here! You know what to do.

IDK who needs to hear this, but 15mbps is not "premium internet, optimal for streaming music and movies, VPN connections, video conferencing and large file transfers." Narrator: She mean's Lowes Hotels needs to hear this.

OK guys, I referred to Brad Pitt playing an F1 driver as "Poetic Superlicense" and that frankly that deserves some love.

Funny how everyone who wants to ban drag is totally fine with this getup.

Anyone else have to reinstall Box Tools at least once a week? Or only me? #sigh

guess where we’re complaining about it now bitch

Wait... Brad Pitt is playing an F1 driver? For real? He'd old enough (59) to be Oscar Piastri's (McLaren driver, age 21) gramps! Did he get a Poetic Superlicense?

Between November 2023 and February 2024 Las Vegas will host BravoCon, F1, NFR, CES, AVN, and the Super Bowl, along with the Raiders and Golden Knights. What a time to be alive (and a Las Vegas resident!).

‘Tis true! But it hadn’t yet shown up in my upcoming / automatic updates list. Once I searched for the app it offered me the update. Also, please don’t block me. 😂

We can’t conduct polls here (yet) so I’ll just ask: do you think Tom is Shiv’s baby daddy?

There’s a conveyor belt cheese bar in London. I repeat: a conveyor belt cheese bar. Can we please get one in Las Vegas? K thx bai. 🧀

Finally tried making a grilled cheese sandwich with mayo instead of butter. It was… really good. Who am I, even?

Crosswalk in London, April 2023. 💯

🎶 Maybe this is it He just cares so much It feels legit We have a connection I think this guy is different 🎶 Here’s looking at you, Bluesky! 🙏🏻
