Any time a criminal complaint sounds essentially like a note sent home by a kindergarten teacher I’m going to struggle to remember that it’s Serious Business.

Tongs as swords!! 

If I recall correctly there were people who warned that he was dangerous before-hand, right?

Finally an opportunity to share this - one of my neighbors has, for years now, refused to pay his dues every 6 months. He wants to pay quarterly. So he writes an angry note on the bill, sometimes tearing it in the process, pays a half of what the bill says, and then usually pays the balance, including late fees, a…

When I was on my HOA board for a few years I was all about reminding people that we could disolve if things got to wild. I also lobbied for having the gates taken down. 

This is one of my favorite comedies ever. I was so lucky to grow up with a VCR and this (and The Court Jester). 

“Weasel” is underused as an insult and I’m pleased to see it here because it is perfect for Stone. 

If there isn’t a paper trail that can be followed by the average high school graduate it’s not going to do a thing.

This will be very interesting to watch - I’ve just finaly realized that I’m allergic to two of the most common sunscreen ingredients* which has seriously limited what I’ll buy.

It’s not as much about the medical choices so much as everything around them: the default now is to save the mother instead of the child and maybe that’s not what a woman wants. It’s about who gets to be in what room when, it’s an explicit reminder about certain drug allergies/sensitivities, it’s spelling out if you…
