- It’s my first day at my new job. I really want to make the most of this opportunity. I’ve been white-nuckeling it thinking the offer would be rescinded since DOGE and the new administration have been so unpredictable. Now, I’m looking forward to that first paycheck.
- Sometimes I miss the days before streaming when you had to physically go to a Blockbuster and commit to a movie.
- I don’t understand why people say “You can’t have your cake and eat it too.” What else am I supposed to do with cake? Just stare at it?
- I really don’t like dating and wonder if I can ever be compatible with anyone again. But sometimes, you meet someone exceptional and they give you hope. At the same time, you have to manage your expectations, otherwise your heart will get stomped on, again.
- Ever notice how restaurants will call something “artisan” just to charge an extra $4?
- Waste of time and resources? – CDC to study vaccines and autism, despite several studies already finding no link
- Even if their new study supports all the old studies that say the same thing, the people who want to believe differently are going to continue to believe that way. As I was told going through a divorce support group, rule number one is don’t try to make sense out of crazy because you’ll only go crazy trying to make sense out of crazy.
- John Goodman and Tom Cruise are teaming up to film a movie. That’s an interesting combination. Too bad Goodman injured his hip while shooting.
- Someone posted this on Twitter, but when I fact-checked it, I think it’s incorrect: The ‘Blazer’ we wear nowadays, got its name from a British ship HMS Blazer in 1837, when the Captain of the ship had to meet Queen Victoria, and he designed this new jacket for the crew to look impressive. The design and name took off.
- Reagan and Gorbachev Agreed to Pause the Cold War in Case of an Alien Invasion
- Shultz was talking about the Lake Geneva summit and mentioned the two leaders ducked out of a meeting to take a walk to a nearby cabin.“I wasn’t there…,” Shultz said before Gorbachev cut him off.“From the fireside house, President Reagan suddenly said to me, ‘What would you do if the United States were suddenly attacked by someone from outer space? Would you help us?’“I said, ‘No doubt about it.'”“He said, ‘We too.'”
“So that’s interesting,” Gorbachev said to much laughter.
