when your “no soliciting” sign is an insufficient deterrent to the ‘pest defense’ people who are — you guessed it — being pests. 🤔

Major cheat code for life: Assume good things are still ahead. You are not behind. You are not too late. You are not disqualified by your past. One new season can change the entire story. Keep showing up with belief. The best chapters are often written after the hardest ones.

excellent advice for a tranquil post vacay re-entry. from one Virgo to another, Bobby, my only small quibble: the last minute candle. fire + pre-vacay brain/list overload = risky!!! 🚒😱😂

I support going to permanent standard time, I just hope it’s not too late for Texas to reconsider permaDST! 8:30 AM winter sunrises would be pretty tough on Texas school kids. thx for considering this, @chiproytx @tedcruz @RepLloydDoggett @GregCasar @RepMcCaul
👏 @CongressmanRaja (D-IL) now sponsors the Sunshine for Our Kids Act, to restore healthier/safer permanent Standard Time nationwide, while granting permanent Daylight Saving Time for the minority of states requesting it—thank you! 👉 Tell your congress members to sponsor also!

ppl say they want a super nose - presumably for wine, food, whatever - but don’t think about where that leaves you most of the time, especially on a plane or in a public bathroom. just saying: be careful what you wish for. sublime/terrible ✨
