Something sounds like a race car tyrannosaurus airplane trumpet downtown.... ?!
I'm still upset about this. When restaurants find left behind metal straws, what do they do with them? Do they throw them away? i.e. Did I make global warming worse with my well intentioned but scatterbrained, millennialistic, half-assed environmentalism?

A note for politicians: Becoming "annoying daily text message guy/lady" is not campaign goals.
Quote, me. The optimist. Thursday morning, 9:31 a.m.
I just realized I left my “I’m saving the world ✌️” metal reusable straw at a restaurant and I’m distraught now.
POV: You’re trying to read an article online and it’s the year 2022. (Unaltered screenshot of an article I was *trying* to read just now. Wasn’t exactly the most reputable source, but still. I count 5 ads, completely blocking the content I came for — and each other, even?!)
CVS' automated telephone robot guy is honestly my least favorite person. Every exasperated sigh I make into the phone causes him to *START HIS SPIEL OVER AGAIN.* Like, yeah, that's totally reasonable. And I can't even react OR HE'LL GO, "...Sorry..." AND START OVER A SECOND TIME.
ATTENTION, PEOPLE WHO PULL DOWN THEIR MASKS TO SNEEZE AND/OR COUGH INTO THEIR HANDS: …Why are you like this? After over a year of living in a pandemic, you still don’t have this down? …Really?
Just heard NPR say, “At one point, he made a reference to cows” when talking about profanity — and I sat there longer than I’d like to admit pondering what that meant. He made a reference…to cows??
Thoughts&prayers as I try to write today. Since 9am, a crew has been removing asphalt in the alley below me—spewing burnt-street fumes & dust into the air. Finally stopped, but now, for the last hour, I've been trying to write as a chorus of leafblowers move the dust around #help
I’m back at the office after a year and a half of working from home, and I’m hoping Twitter can tell me if all my 1.5-year-old desk snacks are still good. Can I eat this opened bag of trail mix? It’s organic… as are the microbes likely growing inside it.
I have too many feelings this morning. 🦉nytimes.com/2021/08/11/sci…
Ads that use the “Tired of [specific problem]? Introducing [product]!” script need to go. We’ve worn this out.
The question I asked ⛽️🚗 vs. the answer I received 💩. ...That's... Wow. That's not what I meant, Google. Not even a little bit. "People also ask" NO. STOP IT. JUST STOP.
Well... opening Premiere, Photoshop and Acrobat all at the same time was a mistake.
Honestly all I want in the entire world right now is to sit at @TradeandLore, sip coffee and eat a croissant. About to go MAKE MY OWN COFFEE, sans-baked good. For the 378th day in a row. 😾
