OK, this may be the most important question of the night: who is the voice of your pet(s?) What actor or character voices your beloved pooch, kitty, fish, bird, squirrel, pant-weasel or APC unicorn?

I had a dream that I was trying to save some kids from a cult and I got trapped in a cafe or something with the cult members and I picked up an apartment rental magazine and flipped through it and all the pictures of apartments said "RUN" and "RUN AWAY" with a rust-coloured overtone. #SoCreepy

Schools in Saint Paul were closed Tuesday and Wednesday as teachers prepared to do online and in-person teaching simultaneously due to safety concerns about ICE. Kids in my daughter’s school refer to those two days off as Evil Break. As in, “So what did you do over Evil Break?”
