A belief that really solidified for me this year is that if you are a romantic, and want to see the world full of magic and love, you have to create it. Host the dinner party, send the flowers, write the note, share the compliment, put up the decorations, plan the outing, so on

I ordered from kids @footlocker on November 28 and it doesn’t seem like it’s even shipped. I have called and waited on hold for forever, emailed, and tried to use the chat. All I get are AI Bot standard messaging and no human response or callback. I just want my order or my money

For those Kansas City City Hall employees. I’m sure we can whip up a Hanukkah version too.

Why can’t WE have nice things? Maybe starting with the reliable and safe public transportation? Then expanding to the unique & creative design?
🇨🇳 My transit card isn't plastic. It's my Peony 🌸keychain in Luoyang, my Imperial Seal in Xi'an, my Mahjong pendant in Szechuan. Tap it. The city opens. China turned daily commutes into pocket magic. YES! China is living in the future. 🪄🚄 🎙️📽️ Timeless Fashion

Sautéd Brussel sprouts in bacon grease with a heavy cream finish is a holiday dish in my house (circa 2010 inception) you can pry from my cold dead hands. Thank you to these artisan plant breeders?
we genetically engineered Brussel Sprouts to be better today than they were when I was a kid

So insightfully true 🤣
there's a certain personality that's very debilitating in modern life. 100 years ago, if you wanted to buy something, you'd go to five local shops and decide. now with the internet, you need to spend 1,000 hours so you can own the best thing like you're some venetian patrician

Inclusive by definition: “We need to make space for the menorah. We need to make space for Christmas trees. Yes, the Star of Bethlehem, if you want to put that on your desk, go ahead. If you want a nativity scene, go put that up in your office. We’re not going to tell you no.”
A Kansas City councilmember said he is ‘disgusted and discouraged’ by a holiday decor memo at City Hall. MORE >>> https://t.co/jK26nKE2Gw

I attempted using Meta AI to generate an AI/illustrated version of my likeness for my profile picture on WhatsApp where I didn’t want/need an actual photo of myself, similar to my X profile picture here. This is what was generated. Umm….

Two years ago today, Chris Reed preached a sermon on Lot’s wife, warning IHOPKC that they needed to “move on” and not “look back” at the allegations of sexual abuse against Mike Bickle. Chris Reed was exposed for clergy sexual abuse 10 months later. Happy Lot’s Wife Day to all

A “Christian” stating that women should be quiet when Jesus chose (checks notes) women to be the first witnesses of his resurrection is certainly a (misogynistic) choice.
