Monica

I really just put my index finger to my mouth to shush the cat as though she absolutely understood what I was doing.

Had dinner tonight with 8 entrepreneurial couples. Every single one is moving. Good bye @MayorofSeattle. You’re the nail in the coffin of Seattle and you will be memorialized for it.

@RocketOTD Thank you for the call this morning.

@monkessler Hi Monica! I'm so sorry you're having a negative experience with us. Please send me an email with your contact information and the details of your situation at Andrew@rocketmortgage.com. I would like to get you connected with the team that can help.

Special shoutout to #RocketMortgage on behalf of my seller and I for an absolutely disastrous experience. 10/10 Don’t recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ P.S. Not a great sign when your own Redfin agents don’t even want to work with you….

@alphafox I am literally crying laughing. “What happened to my eyebrows” 🤣

Editing coworkers photos weirdly and asking them if its ok to use on the company website: 😭

@nasahqphoto @NASAArtemis @NASAKennedy @NASA Amateur hour camera work! It was maddening! What a huge oversight on such a historical moment.

Check out the first pictures of the #Artemis II launch from our remote cameras. Keep checking back for more! 📷 flic.kr/s/aHBqjCGHmm

This was not written by me, but it touched me deeply… Sunday is coming. “He received 39 stripes because 40 was known to kill a man. They wanted him alive. They held handfuls of his beard, and hair and pulled it out by the roots. They wanted him alive. They kicked, punched, and spit on him for hours. Until there wasn't a single spot on his body not covered in blood. They wanted him alive. They shoved a crown of thorns down on his head so harshly it stuck in his skin. They wanted him alive. After hours of being beaten, mocked, whipped, flogged, and tortured they made him walk with a cross. They made him carry it. A rough piece of wood with splinters digging into fresh wounds. They wanted him alive. They wanted him to feel every ounce of pain they could bring. He had to feel it in order to heal us. Crucifixion was historically one of the cruelest most tortured deaths a human could face. Hours upon hours of torture. Torture most of us can not mentally think of because the cruelty isn't normal. It isn't something our minds can comprehend. We celebrate Easter with pastel colors, happy children hunting eggs, and chocolate. Truth is there was absolutely nothing happy about the day Jesus died. It was cruel, bloody, and nasty. He could have stopped all of it. He could have called every angel in heaven to demolish every person standing and shouting "Crucify Him!" He didn't. He knew in order to have a Sunday you have to have a Friday. He knew in order to have joy you have to carry your cross. He felt everything that day. He felt how your heart broke wide open when you had to watch your baby die. He felt how heavy your life was when you were staring down the barrel of a gun wondering if the man you called husband was going to shoot you. He carried the weight of the burden you have felt since your spouse died, and life just doesn't seem right since. On that cross he held the rapist and murderers, the sinner and the saint. He leveled every playing field and said ALL of you are worth it. He knew he had to carry the cross. He never promised the cross you carry in this life would not be heavy. His wasn't. His promise is that Sunday is coming. No matter how heavy Friday is. Financially, emotionally, mentally, or physically. Friday is heavy. That cross is weighing you down and you are about to crumble under its weight. His promise was simply this. He won't make you carry it alone. What kind of king would step down from his throne for this? Jesus of Nazareth, the Son of God did. For you. He did every bit of it for you and me. Oh yes, it is heavy. So heavy sometimes you do not think you can take one more step. But look up, because Sunday is coming.”

@bluewmist My legs! Everything else is pretty meh.

What's the one random genetic trait you lucked out on?

@redheadranting Plus 25%

Ladies, how many pairs of just-in-case underpants do you bring when you travel?

@flySEA It was painfully slow Sunday night. Your wait times showed 5 min, that was not remotely accurate. However your TSA workers did seem less miserable and cranky than normal so that was nice.

As of 9 a.m. on Monday, operations and TSA security wait times at SEA remain normal, averaging 10-15 min. Thank you to our partners at TSA for their ongoing dedication to travelers.

@WaltzingMtilda Here’s where I’m at, I let them go, because I want a bigger cheese to noodle ratio.

I'm making mac-n-cheese and when I went to dump the noodles a bunch of them missed the colander and landed in the sink and I was like to heck with that I'm not giving up that many noodles so I scooped them up We're not gonna die from sink noodles Probably

@Wormwarone @BSE42069 @MattWalshBlog He made a blanket statement about all adults. I love going to Disney with my adult niece, we’ve been going since she was a kid. The minority are freaks, not the majority.

@BSE42069 @MattWalshBlog I don't think you're the type that Matt is talking about. We all know the type.

If I were in charge I would send ICE to Disney and arrest and deport all adults who show up without children. Doesn't matter if they're citizens or not.

@redheadranting @TaleMasterTOV When are we allowed to say we were right?

@TaleMasterTOV Interesting, right?

Remember how in 2022 when celebrities like Meat Loaf, Irene Cara, Ray Liotta, William Hurt, Fred Ward and other famous people started dropping like flies but we weren't allowed to question how they died? Can we talk about it now?

Yesssssss! 🙌🫶👏👏

@redheadranting Shepard’s pie, always.

I have two pounds of ground beef that should've been used or frozen yesterday. What can I make with them? Preferably lower carb, but I'm not against some kind of pasta/hotdish. I don't want to make spaghetti or chili. Thinking something more cheesy. I have all kinds of cheese, cottage cheese, various veggies.

@Lifeofstelynn Try sending flowers to someone….

Nothing makes me abandon an online purchase faster than seeing the total after tax and shipping.

@fowontmiss Oh damn….

One of the most peaceful habits you can build is letting people do whatever they want…. and simply adjusting your distance.

@sailaunderscore Stayed up until 1am last night working on a presentation. Exhausted and delirious this morning. Nailed it. All those college years of training kicked in and absolutely paid off.

Kids will never feel the gameday pressure of having to start an essay at 2am and finish it by 8am before the deadline. Totally lost. Absolutely no evolutionary pressure towards a clutch factor anymore.

@FamousVariety Me. Exactly right now.

Anyone else doing this fun thing right now where they're absolutely exhausted during the day and mentally wired at night?
