"Tastes, smells and sounds are transporting. Shutting off the news, hovering over the stove and having playlists meant escaping the 'Do I need pants today?' stress we’ve all encountered." washingtonpost.com/food/2021/06/0…

@BruceHaynesDC I'm fine. Don't coast, hit free throws. Seems pretty simple. Much credit to VCU for hanging in when down.

Growing up, High Point was such a joke we didn't want to go there for basketball team camp and no one kept the free t-shirts. What Chancellor Qubein has built is incredible. The NCAA win is a great cherry on top of a generation of growth. Well done and congrats!

March Madness is one of those times when the greatest superpower is definitely whatever Scott Baio had in Zapped to make objects move however he wanted. (Related: must re-watch Zapped.)

My annual gripe: multiple brackets by the same person in a pool should be banned. Make up your mind!

@LeighGiangreco My 15-year-old just experienced her first "your English Lit essay is sh*t, you forgot to revise it, you have 3 hours to un-fk it" moment. Midnight deadline. Full rewrite. No ChatGPT. Pulled an A-. Absolute 2001-level heroics.

Gen Z will never know the horror/euphoria of watching the sunrise over your college campus as you finish a thesis that will either turn out to be an A- masterpiece or a garbage essay that will make your professor write "What happened here?" (Yes, the latter happened)

Millennials are the elite generation because they cranked out 12-page essays the night before they were due. No ChatGPT. No Claude. Just lo-fi beats playing in the background, Black coffee at midnight, footnotes that were somehow correct, and pure delusion. Grade was an A minus. Period.

I get that politicians love to post brackets to show they're Real People Who Watch Sports, but it seems like they can either shaft the local teams (and get roasted for it) or make an unrealistic bracket where Duke plays High Point in the final (and get roasted for it) #ncpol

Hours-long TSA lines are the reality for travelers right now—Congress should NOT get a pass. We thank Senator @JohnCornyn (R-TX) for introducing legislation requiring Members of Congress to go through standard TSA screening like everyone else. Now, lawmakers should fix the problem they created and pay TSA Officers. #PayTSA

@OKnox I recently learned that Sit-n-Spin still exists. I can't imagine how.

“Language like this was something that the party used to do something about,” Heye said of lawmakers’ comments about Muslims. Now, he said, “nasty rhetoric gets rewarded.” washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/…

Apple Customer Care is telling me that nothing is wrong with my iTunes/Apple Music, but this ain’t right!
