    Grammys

    I'll take Millennial Bullshit for $200 Link (I know it's from the UK, but still.)
  2. Ours was restored yesterday without any texts about crews. I had checked the outage map around midnight and the status hadn't changed from when I first reported it days earlier. The only text I got was when they restored power.
  3. His nickname now is "Up and Coming Woodsman", right?
  4. AISD said they'll let us know about school tomorrow by 3:30 pm today. Said that 20 schools are currently without power and besides that, many of the routes people take to school are impassible because of debris.
  5. Shit-ton of sirens went by just now near Parmer/Mopac. It's gonna be a long day for emergency workers.
  6. I know this episode is supposed to make us think about our need for connection with other people and how our love for them makes us better, but my kids were running around screaming like banshees earlier and I kept thinking "Bill got four whole years."
  7. Every. Single. Word.
  8. Just finished Fleishman is in Trouble, a limited series streaming on Hulu. It was mostly funny, but as someone who had severe PPD, I had a very visceral reaction to episode 9 (Me Time) and, to a slightly lesser extent, the last episode. It has a great cast - Lizzy Caplan, Claire Danes, and Jesse Eisenberg, to name a few.
  9. You wish you'd show up in my erotic friend fiction. That is one of our differences.
  10. Tina is my spirit animal. I relate to her a little too much.
  11. She seems so high in that interview. Love her in Russian Doll and Poker Face is on my list. Her voice has gotten much more raspy in the last couple of decades.
  12. Ha, I didn't even think about that.
  13. Reminds me of that line from the X-Files when Clyde Bruckman tells Mulder "There are worse ways to go, but I can't think of a more undignified one than autoerotic asphyxiation." I don't know, getting shot by your dog is up there.

    Love Wheel also has a 3-legged shop dog named Joe. So, cherry on top.

    Nope, his guitar is with my brother. That's my guitar. I call her Lucinda.

    Vinyl

    When my grandpa died in 2018, I got his 1952-ish Sears-Roebuck radio/phonograph. It hadn't been functional in ages, but my mom and dad fixed up the exterior so we could at least display it. My husband and I had always wanted to get back into vinyl, so a few months ago we finally got around to making it functional as a record player - kind of. My brother had always wanted the internal turntable to display at his place, so we removed it, cleaned it up, and got rid of the ancient, decaying wiring. We put a new turntable in the shelf where the old one had been, and added some powered speakers. Nothing really expensive or fancy, but now we can play records out of the refurbished device. It's pretty cool. Thanks, Pawpaw.
  17. I got a VPN on my personal computer so I could watch it in June and not have to wait until when the fuck ever it aired in the US. I will miss this show so much.
  18. It's a wonder. And Liam Neeson shows up.
  19. He watches all the football. All. The. Football.
  20. Have you seen The Great on Hulu? He's wonderful in it.
  21. I didn't realize, until after I saw this movie, that Nicholas Hoult was the kid in About a Boy. He's done a lot of good work since then. I'm looking forward to Renfield, for sure.
