Thanks for sharing. If anyone wants to buy it from this bookstore all the proceeds go to help Gazans.
Santa!!! I KNOW him.
I don’t know, but my guess is maybe a tool for cutting butter into pastry dough?
Edit: never mind, further down the thread someone’s shown it’s salad shears.
Of course I have that drawer. Why do you need a solution? What’s the problem?
Those white ladies.
Anyway, here’s Wonderwall.
I could swim in those colors.
Was among a group of temps at a credit union. Employees were so busy, we got very little training. And spent large parts of our day with nothing to occupy our time.
After a month, supervisor walks by at end of day and asks how things are going. I say something to the effect of “could be better.” He looks surprised and says “OK, let’s discuss that tomorrow morning.” I think great, we can problem solve.
The next day turned out to be the three year anniversary of my boyfriend’s death. When I sat with supervisor and trainer and they said how are you, I let them know that I was a little emotional due to it, and started to cry a little.
Supervisor proceeded to reem me out for saying something so negative yesterday in the hearing of coworker and accused me of making a bunch of mistakes (I didn’t and had already provided evidence that I wasn’t involved) and that I obviously didn’t care about my work and that I needed to pack my things and be escorted out of the building.
In conclusion, I hope that guy spends the rest of his life with wet socks.
I keep an ever expanding TBR. Every time I’m ready for a new book I use a random number generator to tell me what’s next. Keeps things interesting and eliminates analysis paralysis. I completely agree with the suggestion to ditch books you’re not enjoying. Life is too short for bad fiction.
I see Queen Mab hath been with you.

Shows you how to try different types of abstract art. Has been a huge inspiration in getting me to paint and experiment with art.
Tony Stark created likeability with a box of scraps in a cave!
If there’s two things I know about white people, it’s that they love Rachel Ray, and they’re terrified of curses.
My mom was just saying 2 days ago as we walked down our street, she doesn’t understand why so many people come home in the evening and just sit in their cars. Like, you’re home. Go in your home. We could come up with plenty of scenarios for people to do it once in a while, but for so many it’s like a ritual.
If you like horror and you haven’t seen Repo! The Genetic Opera, nows the time.
