Did an overnight trip to the Omaha zoo for sleeping bags and safari with 30 4-H'ers Saturday-Sunday, had 2 night meetings, County Council ditch clean up, and did 2 STEM Days for nearly 500 youth on Wednesday and Thursday. What a week.

Stop using AI for everything.

If the flyer you're posting on social media was made by AI, I'm scrolling right past it. ✌🏽 Hot take- they don't look good and they aren't creative, especially when every one I see looks almost exactly the same.

According to my calculations... It's going to be cheaper for me to start a certificate or Associates degree program and pay out of pocket than to start paying back my student loans again... So there's that. It didn't have to be like this. *Gestures broadly*

Lol Starbucks. All I wanted was the 25 bonus stars for using my own cup back, and instead I now earn even less stars per transaction than I did before. I guess there's more reasons I've only had 3 Starbucks drinks in 2026 when I used to go almost daily. 🙄

Last night my friends and I were going to craft and watch a movie or 2... Long story short, we didn't craft or watch a movie, but we're now way more knowledgeable about the rules of curling and biathlon.

I've just gotta say it louder for the people in the back... Puerto Rico is a part of America. Thank you.

This quote is one that continues to cross my mind. What is happening is not okay.

Going back to the office tomorrow for the first time in 18 days. I'm not ready for that alarm to go off in the morning.

Interesting that suddenly I can't get free 2 day shipping for Amazon prime, at minimum everything is 5 days out, but for $4.99 I can have the same item in 3 hours. I know it's the holidays... But that feels slightly ridiculous.

Me: I don't need to buy any more crochet patterns. Also me: Buys more crochet patterns.

Finally. After over 2 weeks of back and forth with @amazon they refunded the return I made to @StaplesStores since the employee couldn't be bothered to do their job and correctly handle my return. 0/10 do not recommend making a return to the Altoona, Iowa Staples.

1. Riding my bumper on snow and ice packed roads will not make me go faster. 2. When you pay my car insurance and/or deductable you can determine how fast I drive on said snow and ice packed roads. 3. If you're so invincible, pass me. I was going 5 under

Why couldn't this storm have happened on a weekday?

I *at most* have to work 19 more days in 2025 and somehow that realization just gave me decent motivation.

Kids shouldn't be hungry or wonder when/if they'll get a meal tomorrow.

Is that a... Small sign of hope for the future? 💙💙

Professional conference pet peeve. Your "whisper conversation" is never as quiet as you think it is and it keeps people around you from hearing the presentation.

I'm disappointed no one has posted a video of the BYU ball boy straight up tackling an ISU fan.

I have sneezed no less that 27 times this morning. Happy harvest season.
