So.... someone has figured out that there's a magic island that occasionally drops cows into the ocean.

"This house is a mess. I have so much work to do," said Toad. Frog looked through the window. "Toad, you are right," said Frog. "It is a mess." Toad pulled the covers over his head.

I'll tell you who died in White Lotus: me, after having to listen to all those North American hermit thrushes singing in the background of a Sicilian resort. Those birds aren't found anywhere near Europe!

@rachsyme Thank you so much! Tomorrow would have been her 88th birthday, so the timing is perfect 💚

@rachsyme Passion fruit curd!

I’m working on a story for @oakpark about the history of basketball courts in Oak Park, and I’m looking for any residents who may remember when the courts started disappearing in the 1990s or when the park district started removing the rims. DMs open. Email in the bio.

@rachsyme Ooooh, thank you!

@rachsyme I like white florals but they seem fancy to me for some reason. Are there any that feel more down-to-earth??

George Bernard Shaw grumpily turning things down.

This rollercoaster that parents under 5 (including me) are forced to ride is an absolute, unacceptable disaster. Pfizer and the FDA need to get it together so the public knows what the f is going on (and why) so we can continue to be confident in this process.
