Good luck getting a Real ID now, Bob Francis.

My oldest daughter is a middle school teacher. She just asked me to send a baby picture of her for the school yearbook. I think I sent her 25 pictures. She was so cute, and this is the exact reason new parents take so many pictures. This is my moment.

Pictures of last night, and now it’s raining again. Weekends in MA can only have 15 hours of sun over two days collectively.

HRT patches sticking to your fingers? HRT plastic getting staticky and clinging to your clothes? These little adhesives got ya down? Spice them up with some nostalgia! (or just tuck a pic of JBJ in your pants) #80s #GenX #HRT weeklyhumorist.com/how-to-add-g...

I wrote about looking for a friend and sent it to the internet. I want to hang out with someone else who can’t ride the rides. #meningioma #epilepsy open.substack.com/pub/staceycu...

Haven’t been going in the last few years, but if I knew this was an option, I’d have considered it. No, I’ve never ridden a horse but I feel a marathon is a good place to learn. #bostonmarathon

I’m on Substack where I also have few followers, and I also think I’m funny. (Tell me if you are there too.) substack.com/@staceycurra...

Pickleball sucks, and so does the person who wrote this. I hope all your pickleballs get flat and that you never “win” a match again.

This is too many movie plots at once, 2025. Too many. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/16/s...

I’ve always loved Maine! See you this summer Vacationland. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/10/u...

Consider becoming a member if you can. There is a $35 option.

I‘m getting old so I wrote about Jim Morrison & Val Kilmer ofc. And then I found this in my attic when looking for something else entirely, so either of, or both of them, are haunting me. open.substack.com/pub/staceycu...

April is National Stress Awareness month and I’m trying to think of an April Fools joke but nothing seems outlandish enough to be funny any more, and now I’m stressed that I can’t think of anything, and that the world is like this. So yeah, Happy National Stress Awareness month. He he lol

Nice still life painting, talented artist. I’m most interested in where you got that bread though. #peabodyessexmuseum #salemma

Yes, this replaces the MMR vaccine. But what about Dtap? What then Dr. Bucky? I suggest doing the Electric Slide and swallowing someone else’s chewed gum. That should work.

I don’t take the train often, but when I do, the person next to me is going to talk loudly on the phone the whole way.

This combo is the perfect dinner

I don’t use Facebook for two main reasons: 1) Zuckerberg 2) I don’t need to be reminded that 16 years ago I got my ass kicked in Path Words.

Peons, hear ye! hear ye! Petey was following a decree you idiots missed. I already said that in my first 100 days I’d make every WH text include a reporter. I thought you wanted transparency!

Decided to indulge a rare pancake craving & thought I had done something wrong when they stuck to pan flat, only to realize the mix had expired in March 2024. I wasted 2 eggs and I think I’m some kind of trouble.

This bag is the reason I visit Ireland.

I don’t wanna be a show off, but I can have a focal aware seizure and post on social media at the same time.

Three years ago I imagined a totally unrealistic scenario that would never happen. (I know the beer mug is all wrong.) #St.PatricksDay @belladonnacomedy.bsky.social thebelladonnacomedy.com/daily-itiner...

If there is a razzie awarded for Irish soda bread, I’ll accept the prize in my kitchen. Speech prepared.

Just watched a dog jump up and bite the hand of an elderly man casually walking past it on a very traveled sidewalk, clearly shocking its owner, and I swear to no god, my fear of random dogs is so justified.
