Does anyone know who was on stage with Paul McCartney during his SNL50 set?

Day 4. I might be alive. I’m awake and doing chores. I can breathe through my nose. My immune system remembered the spot on my finger where I stabbed myself with a leather needle.

Day 3. This might actually be the flu. Idk. I hate it. Someone come fix me.

Does anyone know if I need to use a stretch stitch for nylon binding on neoprene? The internet refuses to answer me.

This is one of the rare occasions where I actually caught a cold from my husband and I hate it so much. Someone plz bring soup and also the delicious tropical juice I couldn’t get enough of in Saint Martin. Thx.

The West Wing, s2e18. Toby was 100% right.

ski instructor said the yeti turds I found are moose droppings. am I supposed to be comforted by the fact the yeti is riding a goddamn moose

Take This Sabbath Day (The West Wing, s1ep14) should be mandatory viewing for all elected officials.

Unprecedented times make it a lot harder to enjoy rewatching The West Wing.

When did The Onion stop being satirical?

This email seems to actually be legit and @nymag.com has some serious explaining to do about why they are sending literally the spammiest payment reminder emails

After YEARS of trying, I FINALLY figured out how to get all my iCloud files to stop living on my MacBook hard drive 🥹🥹🥹

Everyone should read this thread. My favorite: “nothing is more romantic than making love under the soft glow of a Kris Lindahl billboard at dusk on a midsummers eve.” www.reddit.com/r/TwinCities...

Past Amber bought a frozen pizza to have for dinner when we got back from St. Martin and present Amber is so fucking glad. Did you know that some 6+ hour international Delta flights don’t include meal service? Like wtaf.

Climbing to the highest point in the Kingdom of the Netherlands or Journeying to the Center of the Earth?

A day may come when I learn to not watch Pixar movies on planes, but it is not this day. This day, I cry.

Reskeeting this now that people are actually awake. My character is an Outlander Dragonborn (red) Barbarian whose rage comes from being raised in a Tiamat-worshipping clan that she ran away from as a teenager. I like Berserker a lot but Zealot is also neat and def fits my backstory 🤔🤷🏻‍♀️

An incredibly well-researched piece on the horrors of Neil Gaiman. It is extremely upsetting and explicit. Please be careful reading it. www.vulture.com/article/neil...

Finally getting around to listening to Shirley Jackson’s short stories and omg why did it take me 35 years to do this

Just learned there are more than two Barbarian subclasses and now I can’t decide between Berserker and Zealot plz help.

This whole flight cancellation/rescheduling debacle gave me the chance to pick up the Nikon D800 I’ve been eyeing on Marketplace for a while and use it on my trip. Still a working with a crop lens, but I can pretend that’s a vignette in the corners.

At least 2025 brought us “Do a whoopsie” as a NYT crossword puzzle clue.

It took 6 hours (five of which I spent on hold), but I managed to reschedule the trip. I still have to call Chase back to get reimbursed for my original hotel stay that was nonrefundable*, but that’s a problem for later, more awake Amber. *this doesn’t matter cause you can’t cancel day of anyway

One good thing about being on hold with Delta for over two hours (and counting) is that they have not told me even once how important my call is to them. But if I ever hear their hold music again after this call I will probably snap.

I should be on a plane heading to a nice warm beach right now. But instead I woke up to a text sent at 3:36AM informing me that my flight was cancelled.

Former employer has a new job posting up. It’s the exact same post from when they hired me, but with a higher salary range and Director instead of Manager in the title. Please tell me again why I wasn’t qualified for a higher position?

When literally everyone around you has communication problems, it’s time to consider the fact that actually you’re an egotistical asshole who’s overcompensating for Peter Principle-ing himself.

Didn’t get to do our usual prime rib feast for Christmas Eve, so we decided to do it tonight instead. Pretty sure I’ll be kicking off 2025 with some absolutely killer back pain from the five hours of prep, cooking, and baking involved.

I can’t wait to find out who the hell Squeem is.

My shins would like to have a word with whoever designed Whole Foods’ two-tiered shopping carts.

Target drive up is great until they accidentally swap one your bags with another customer’s and that bag had all the things you actually needed.

I wish I could sleep.

Bought a wireless laser printer off FB Marketplace that is so old I had to literally print out the network configuration info. I kind of miss that.

Happy birthday, Jesus. Sorry your party’s so lame.
