Red Hot chili peppers. Terpsichorian display is good.

Phoebe

Does anyone do this? It feels both like I've gone to crazytown and that insight is achieved. I can handle doing the CrossFit and it's the only thing that works for me, seriously, which is unfortunate because it's also torture. But now they're like, for Real Results TM you need to track those macros....

Phoebe

Dwyn duh lol

Phoebe

Ok I finally solved that wretched thing in four and my mind is eased slightly. I'm too lazy to erase the text so I can't say the word but the truly disturbing thing about it now is that I thought it was an Italian/Latin word and not an English word. Like considered and rejected for not being English...

Phoebe

Out of laziness I took to downloading the New York times games app for the free little games each day. This is one of my all-important games to play during the portion of the day I spend sitting around as a taxi service waiting for people. I have two problems, one requiring assistance and the other ...

Phoebe

Anyone But You I was feeling kind of depressed and cold - like physically cold. I am never cold. The novelty of it was so strange. I had to lay under blankets. I turned on Netflix and this was the first movie presented to me. I feel like I've spent some time with the Netflix and it really ought to k...

Phoebe

JFC I am hopping mad about it.

Phoebe

I haven't even had time to look at this video although I was made aware it existed... Apparently she went on mainstream morning news shows to try to defend herself and spin this another way, and one upshot was she thinks Biden's dog should be killed! That younger dog he had that has bitten multiple ...

Phoebe

Yep, It was lucky they had such good video coverage of what happened last week because it made really clear that everything was quiet and the violence was completely started and continued by the off-campus group that came in to attack the protesters. And it captured both these people using sticks to...

Phoebe

Have been following and still puzzling over why Kendrick titled the first one Euphoria. It's a trash show about ugly incidents of teen sex and addiction, and Drake was one of the producers. He worked with Sam Levinson, who is creepy in his own ways, to develop the show, which was to feature Zendaya....

Phoebe

My understanding if I'm getting this right Is that Israel could have accepted a deal almost identical to one that Israel itself proposed in past ceasefire negotiations. And it could have won the release of many of the remaining hostages in this process (I'm assuming they can't promise everybody beca...

Phoebe

I saw a little bit of this video and the University in particular and everybody else generally is lucky this didn't go a much worse way, like with a fire breaking out in that place from the fireworks. It seems like they had already decided to break up the encampment with the aid of the California hi...

Phoebe

At Emory they have some people officially designated by the University to facilitate free expression. I don't know what happened yet on the day they called the outside police into campus, or the day they let the students surround the dining hall. Apparently some faculty and students want the preside...

Phoebe

What else is in that gravel pit? Brrr.

Phoebe

It isn't working out well for her. I'm sure it endears her completely to Trump, but not so much to the type of voter he needs to convince. A lot of Republicans out there are really fond of their dogs. They should have done some reading on the next door neighbor social media site, keyword dog. They w...

Phoebe

Remarkable video continues to emerge. I don't know how to link these exactly because some of them come through Twitter or TikTok or things that I don't have... But one is a guy filming from a walkout basement as the tornado rolls by, still fairly far away but you can see the debris rolling by even o...

Phoebe

I was meaning to share this link for a while - in the larger issue of how to deal with violent police responses to incidents and situations that need some other solution. This seems like the better way: https://www.reuters.com/world/us/new-mexico-mental-health-first-responders-are-increasingly-civil...

Phoebe

It is not normal for people from the country, from rural areas, to slaughter their inconvenient animals in a gravel pit. That is all. People who do that should be monitored by a mental health professional, obviously. Goes without saying they shouldn't be making any decisions for anybody.

Phoebe

Barricading the doors is not merely annoying - it can't be allowed and prevents people who don't want to be there from getting away. They just did this at Emory as well, not only when they were trying to get in the doors the campus security was blocking, but when protesters chanting "from the r...

Phoebe

The footage is craaaazed - at one point there's a big wide tornado with three little ones spinning around the outside. Yikes! Amazing that so few were seriously injured considering... Probably lucky it was during day when everyone was awake and aware, at work, school, etc.

Phoebe

This is what the university President had to say about it and it conforms with what other witnesses who saw it reported - tbh I am surprised that there was not more violence used to subdue these protesters when they were throwing things at police and trying to break into a building. (See also the pa...

Phoebe

I don't doubt that some of these protests are being broken up with excessive police aggression, but at Emory it certainly was a mixed bag with protestors initiating the violence themselves. They are setting up for end of term events on the quad and the campus security was tasked with keeping the pro...

Phoebe

I have trouble finding investments I feel comfortable with even with much smaller amounts. It's wild. Also I'm getting my @#$ handed to me in the markets ... 90% of what I pick is genius and money doubling and then I pick Credit Suisse and wave goodbye to my money. That was sad.

Phoebe

I haven't yet seen what happened in Texas. I did watch the Emory video and honestly the protestors fought the police and that isn't going to fly in Atlanta. They were not students and were trespassing so they were removed by the actual police as soon as they came in to set up the encampment protest....

Phoebe

Maybe so. But they weren't able to get the job done in England, that's the crucial point. The state has established an official religion, complete with my tax dollars being used for it. It would be outrageous even if my religion were one of the officially endorsed state religions, but of course it i...

Phoebe

My husband doesn't think it's a good idea for me to start a private high school funded with taxpayer dollars, so I haven't yet started the school and I'm waiting for the lottery to help fund it. For that I would need to buy a lottery ticket, so I'm waiting for that as well. I think it's obscene that...

Phoebe

I keep seeing online these tales of creepy school or sports league officials asking parents to fill out participation forms that list the last date of their daughter's menstrual period, or other information about their menstrual cycle. I am wondering if this is a rare event that simply got a lot of ...

Phoebe

An interesting example - though he was not a billionaire - is Zell Kravinsky, a multi-millionaire who gave away most of his money and more! He is discussed in comparison to famous examples of billionaires in this article from 2006 by Peter Singer: https://www.nytimes.com/2006/12/17/magazine/17charit...

Phoebe

That USC thing I recently read about and wowwwwwwwwww is that BS.

Phoebe

If doing things like this gives people a kick start and breaks up the routine in a good way, I'm for it. But overall... suspicious of tricky diets that place heavy restrictions on food that seems otherwise positive. I am happy with my nutrition plan which emphasizes GREEN VEGETABLES and other things...

Phoebe

I say length and strength more like the kids - you can still tell there's an E in the word but definitely has a long-A sound coming in. Penguin is inexplicable - it is pronounced like the writing instrument + guin! I blame Iowa - there is no A in that word. I know what you mean about the TTs - it se...

Phoebe

Oh Lord. I am trying to keep an eye on how the universities are handling these situations because it is instructive, but have been too busy with work things to follow along. What I do know so far is a lot of places have botched the response wildly - Columbia & Texas in particular. It appears Col...

Phoebe

According to Jacques Pepin, the superior cut of chicken is the thigh, and I think his word on this matter is law. So it's good that we all agree. And yes, they are by far the cheapest (same as legs, which I also love - and if you're going to make a chicken wing as a snack, for the love of Pete why w...

Phoebe

Given that the deprivation of food is being used as a weapon here, and it's pretty clearly documented now that it is, then the genocide label fits and it needs to be used to make clear the severity of the crime. On the other hand, if not calling it by this name helps to achieve some temporary pragma...

Phoebe

Mood: another day, another $#!??& work function where I can't eat the food (or have to wait for an hour to figure out whether it's edible), have to shout inane small talk at people in a noisy room, have to be judged purely on appearances, and inevitably will be blamed for doing God only knows wh...

Phoebe

Still loving this Beyonce album!

Difficult day but now it's the weekend I guess.

Phoebe

How the hell is she talking while drinking tea?

Phoebe

This phone doesn't even work.

Phoebe

I had exactly your list of positives and when we reached Daughter it was "mind blown" phase, and from there I'm not even tracking individual stuff... I was just WhAt IS tHiS?!!! Still there!
For some reason American Requiem is the one sticking with me during the non-listening times.

World Central kitchen is this charity founded by chef Jose Andres, which has been on the scene delivering essential food aid after natural disasters and in conflict zones around the world. Everybody knows them, everybody works with them - It's a group established and supported by the people who make...

Phoebe

I have complaints about the world's criticism of Beyonce's Jolene. My child informed me that her enjoyment of the song was being dampened! Look at the video, I said: that hand is not Beyoncé's hand! She's not from Louisiana! This song is about her mother! And if her mother wants to bring that smoke ...

Phoebe

How exciting! Good sleep is so important. I have been on this journey with a slightly different path: at first I was diagnosed with very mild sleep apnea, and I had a really good doctor. I was able to go to a wonderful dentist (tbh I had a certain fondness for my dentist!) who took impressions and f...

Phoebe

Warning: listening to this could cause you to low level vibrate all over with frequencies you can't even hear! https://youtu.be/RYD8isM7RH4?feature=shared Update: The good looking one in this video started following me on social media for no goddamn reason... I think it must be a hoax or something? ...

Phoebe

The song "Daughter" on Beyoncé's new album took my breath away before we got to this part and then I was in complete disarray, not sure whether to laugh for joy or cry!

Phoebe

Also religious groups that would not be able to donate to the political campaign apparently can purchase large quantities of Bibles and then he benefits. Sick.

Phoebe

I believe this very thing played itself out once among my dogs and a young, small possum, which was terribly unfortunate because the possums are quite valuable. Luckily we have many possums and the larger ones are too intimidating for them to approach. The possum is so beneficial to have around.

Phoebe

I stayed up till midnight just so I could hear Beyoncé's version of Jolene, and I was apparently slow to the news there is an entire country album out here today. Haven't even made it through the whole thing and I am just astounded. I couldn't imagine how she was going to top the last album. It's so...

Phoebe

I have had one point two five margaritas. My liver apparently doesn't work anymore. The whole thing is tragic and a cause for sorrow rather than humor, but I will tell you, It's like getting to ride the rides at the carnival for free.

Phoebe

He agreed to this licensing deal, that's all that matters. He is grotesque, period.

Phoebe

Wow, amazing! I would like to see one closer - we've seen them from a distance but even small with aid of binoculars. One cannot go close to the nests at all.
