No Hard Feelings Jennifer Lawrence plays a 30 something lady who ends up, through a series of misfortunes, dating a much younger adult/kid who is getting ready to start his first year at Princeton. I made cringing faces - I think that's what you'd call them - when contemplating what they had in mind...

Phoebe

People at work are driving me insane.
That is all.
The dog peed on a blanket and it is so annoying. Even so, I'd rather deal with the dog. I launder the blanket. Maybe twice. Then it's ok. Can't launder people's irritating and imo vaguely racist bs so easily.

Phoebe

I love it and this is still one of the best concerts I've attended! The energy was off the charts.

Phoebe

Ah, he was good - in a lot of good movies over the years.

Phoebe

I thought at the time the way you said it would be a positive outcome! Follow more pedagogues, less demagogue.

Phoebe

Question for those of you who use Office and Outlook: my employer has Outlook email and it's very intrusive - it regularly tries to make itself the default for saving Office files on my home computer, as well as asks me to install a OneDrive backup from the Work account that would save all my person...

Phoebe

Follow up confirmation: yes to being a target now. What's sad is it probably cost them the last game. They blew their lead against Stanford with a spectacular collapse in play but even so, penalties at crucial junctures played a big part. Like Travis Hunter, back from the lacerated liver he arguably...

Phoebe

I was actually on a secret trip! My kid was feeling low and wanted to eat a big meal at this place, so we went... the option was not offered to the other kids so we had to keep it on the low. Each one kind of gets their special moments from time to time.

Rudolph Isley of the Isley Brothers - Ron is still going and last year made some wonderful music with Beyonce

Phoebe

OK I had to know what was good here so I googled and was given this: https://www.google.com/search?sca_esv=573801698&rlz=1C1CHBF_enUS843US844&sxsrf=AM9HkKk4oEjlDm9QLOAjS9eHKKoErcTbVA:1697472590320&q=jared+leto+acl+festival+2023&tbm=vid&source=lnms&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjgyYuW-v...

Phoebe

Very cool! But was there an eclipse?? It would be good if like halfway during the festival they were all plunged into momentary darkness! As if it were planned.

Phoebe

Very cool - but even cooler that you're giving us the 2027 list. At this point it's good to have the evidence things are relatively ok! But seriously I love it, love the list and all the info you have given us about it.

Phoebe

That's exciting! You totally can do a 10K. I think you're right to focus on knees and other such spots (ankles, hips) that can be injury points for the seasoned individual undertaking more intense exercise. Soon you will be squatting all the time.

Phoebe

Yeah I feel like we saw the window for a potential real peace go by in our lifetimes - opened and then closed and now it's not clear there's any chance to open it again. I'm definitely more sympathetic to the Israeli side of this conflict and can't see Hamas as anything but a lawless terrorist organ...

Phoebe

I could be wrong? Easily wrong. People have lookalikes. His hair was flattened down like it has been lately, and they were sitting together both facing a big TV - that whole half of restaurant empty and us four little ladies on the opposite side, only others around. GF was a tall, very good looking ...

Phoebe

I'm at a fancy Mexican restaurant happy hour - the room is empty except for me, kid, two older ladies, and a man I swear is Jack Harlow eating with lady friend right next to him. I feel awkward about photographic him because a) that's stupid bad behaviors and b) if he turns this way at all, he looks...

Phoebe

Similarly feel it's ten layers deep complexity I do not grasp. It just upsets me to see cheering in the wake of these events. One of the disturbing things about this "Declassified" TV show is they had episodes about diff kinds of anti-Israel groups committing espionage, but in particular H...

Phoebe

Even in my town there are pro Palestinian protests going on right now and I'm sorry but it makes me sick to see protesters out there supporting what they did to innocent people. War is terrible and Israel puts Palestinian teenagers in prison and does all kinds of things we should rightfully object t...

Phoebe

MUCH BETTER TV lately - the Lioness show was worth a spin but irritated so much by the end. The recent shows have been TOP NOTCH EXCELLENT: 1) Succession Finally watched the most recent season. At times it makes you so uncomfortable! You start to emotionally engage, and immediately the people you fe...

Phoebe

This whole thread was fascinating for the "facts about what is actually going on with shoplifting" element but then y'all said I was a decent human - I should have come here earlier and not closed the phone! I should have paid attention! My kid has been mad at me for three days because I e...

Ditto to this entire post!

New word of the day for me:

Apparently this is a vapor cloud released by trees that is relevant to understanding climate models:

Has anyone played this? Apparently the basic framework is still Minecraft but it's allowing you to do some things within the game related to familiar d&d content. Not really role-playing but getting a little taste of some d&d world. https://techcrunch.com/2023/09/27/the-dungeons-dragons-dlc-...

This one kind of presenting himself as the replacement Justin Timberlake now - it's a significant upgrade. Please upgrade us and also start working directly with Timbaland.

Phoebe

Had to get up this morning at 4:30 to drive my kid to a school thing and believe me, it is painful. In case I forgot what pain was, here is some to remind me. I'm glad I don't drink much.

They're going to planet Snoopiter.

Sounds like me.

Despair is not allowed though! We must not despair. Maybe about the climate but not current circumstances. I received this message and dwelling on it was good.

People saying they don't fear him because of Colorado's loss to Oregon... same people want to restrict the transfer portal rules because they know their players might choose to play for Colorado now. My only regret is that this is happening in Colorado, where football fans have long been fickle and ...

I get that Coach prime has a very strong sense of self and is eager to share verbally how awesome he and his team are with others. That said, listening to him go on is far more entertaining and comfortable then listening to grown white men and women talk about how he and/or his kids need their comeu...

Phoebe

I totally missed this. I'm sorry to say this does not surprise me in the least, not only that it happened but that it would be excused like this in that area of the world. Way too much unwanted touching going on generally, and I do mean assault touching and not friendly hugs.

Phoebe

Now the puppy is large and he and all the other puppies of the world want to bark bark bark bark bark it up. My brain is vibrating painfully within its rigid prison. Bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark. I was driven to the edge by feelings about the workplace and actually phoned real humans to d...

Phoebe

Sadly I think that's what millennials say. Nowadays just

meaning fire but not using the actual word? Also give a hostile stare to the old person trying to inquire about your words.

Phoebe

A Court of Thorns and Roses, by Sarah Mass I read a lot of books I don't put here, unfortunately, and I almost never get to read fiction. Sometimes I have a window of opportunity for fiction. If you have such a window rarely, do not use it to read this book. This book is kind of like The hunger game...

Phoebe

That sounds amazing! I've never been on one of those really big cruise ships.

Phoebe

I love it!

Phoebe

Dog woke me up at exactly 4:45 a.m. making his high pitched squeaking noises like a maniac. Oh boy, he's really got to go potty. I drag my sad sorry ass out of bed thinking he means anything he says (yeah, squeaks, for some reason he can only squeak) and when we get to the door there's about six rai...

Phoebe

Woods are overrated; we only like them now because they aren't as scary as they used to be for the distant ancestors. When it gets too scary then we don't like it anymore. Maybe that's what this book is really all about: you don't have what it takes to be Amish because there's too much woods in it f...

This is so nice - peaceful, mellow, soothing. It's nice to be nice sometimes:

There's a big difference between training dogs for search and rescue and training them to be attack dogs, usually including which dogs are used for which type of work. How convenient that Ethan's SARS dogs happen to be dual-purpose dogs. Okay but these are St Bernards, and we're dealing with hand-t...

Be careful what you wish for when you decide to build that great big wall at the border!

Phoebe

It's because he just isn't into her, obviously. This isn't much of a romance novel, despite the promises of "love inspired suspense" and "inspirational romance". I wonder how the Amish would feel about this: "pray to the Lord and then start murdering" Reading this is ma...

Phoebe

More than anything it's the constant use of "fight them hand to hand" that tells me this was primarily an AI effort. When we're done with this book summary, I'm going to post up for ideas and prompts for us to have Chat GPT write our own Amish Suspense and Romance novel. I think we can do...

Phoebe

I have tried to train my children to do these things but ultimately it's easy to fall back into the patterns of our own training. My parents wanted me to get the good grades and do all the extras, so that's what they expected me to spend my time on. I did have to do a metric s*** ton of yard work. O...

Phoebe

This didn't just happen so it probably doesn't belong here, but I need to shout it into the void desperately. Parenting sons and daughters is no different in many respects and should not be different in some respects, but other differences are real and there's no point pretending they don't exist. N...

YouTube then suggested this to me and I puzzled over it greatly because it's too early in the morning to make sense of this type of thing. They obviously love each other, I don't know. They love each other so much that he is into this not quite a lap dance but also not a good one, and then they walk...

The music is catchy and I like that he has a low voice, but that poor man is the victim of the same stylist who did Kiesza's hideaway video. Great song that becomes an earworm but the worst fashion ever witnessed. I say this whilst sitting here in ancient black stretchy leggings that have holes in t...

Getting older is weird. It's like you get wiser but pay for it directly in pain. Just laying here with one knee bent and all of a sudden it's excruciatingly painful in the knee. Why? Can't bend at 110 degrees now? Looking forward to whatever new insight was won.
