holding old timer bats so they can still feel like flappy lads is some real heartwarming stuff
She would like to have a word with the manager about that suggestion
Farnes, I bought the tickets first and then messaged my friend because there was no way I was not going. But she can and we are, and you will probably be able to hear my squee from across the ocean π₯°

If Timothee Chalamet wants to make being a reverse-snob part of his deal, whatever. Be a child, you know?
But at a time when arts funding and support are so imperiled, it would be nice not to lead with your contempt for wide swaths of the arts during your campaign to have your own art recognized.
Oh that sounds like such a fun day and those are so pretty! And picking a hobby back up, especially if you enjoy, is so good for the soul β€οΈβ€οΈ
Hey, this is a petition about a site that means a lot to me. I can't believe the Art Institute is considering tearing this down! It's such an amazing place to visit. #WaysToHelp

Thank you @chicagoreader.com and everyone who voted! Here's to more movies in 2026!
My non-work accomplishments so far this week have been knitting and watching the two chef shows. Hopefully this weekend I'll do some more catching up on shows but I will say I've been really happy to get more into the habit of knitting. Both for crafting and accomplishing/progress reasons π§Ά
It's almost Friday ducks π₯³
This has been one of those long-but-quick weeks and I'm hoping my wishes are stretching across the days to snap some smiles and good wishes your way. I hope that something lovely finds you, that there's some brightness and bubbles and you remember you're swell. π«Άπ»

I decided to go a little whimsical today with the penguin gif, because I think we can all use some whimsy and silly in our day (but, no, this doesn't count towards your daily serving of fruit π)
I hope you have some delight in your day and brightness.
I'm proud of you!
