[Dave Letterman at 12:25 when the second guest is a dud] Hey Paul, we still on to see Hamnet tomorrow?

In this house, we mostly celebrate Thanksgiving as the beginning of Pumpkin Pie For Breakfast Week.

Blue Jays win World Series = no White House visit 👏👏👏

Peppermint Patty has it in her, but lacks the executive function to follow through with it. She’d enlist Marcie, but Clue rules don’t allow conspiracy. Lucy is openly homicidal, but would do it with her bare hands, obviating a critical component of the Clue game.

Dam been writing a book about this and she just TikToked it in 90 seconds.

When you become a civil, sober politics knower like myself, you understand that by noticing a bad person is bad, you become even worse than them. And they become good
