HOT HOT TOPICS
– (sorry this is kinda confusing): I have an important report that I run that goes up to a VP every morning. it is in a PDF that is essentially just a saved excel file into a PDF format. I’ve spent months using an app to create an automated version of this report to take the place of this old system. but this week, I found out my bosses want me to make a hidden page in the app that they can basically copy into a pdf format, making all my work feel very pointless. what is the meaning of life?
– why does breakfast for dinner seem to taste better than a regular breakfast?
– salsa or hot sauce on your breakfast taco?
– english muffins for a burger make more sense than a traditional bun.
– transformers is the 14th highest grossing series at the box office. how?!
follow up. I asked everyone at my office if they have seen a transformers movie in the last 5 years and only the intern said yes. apparently he watches them all the time and we entered a 20 minute debate on why he is dumb.
– everyone has their own methods to cope, there is not one set way. don’t judge someone for not handling something as well as you do.
– the air quality in the a large portion of the eastern us is rather bad due to wildfires in canada. should we be preparing for the apocalypse now or should we wait until things get worse? can things get much worse?
– my boss had been complaing lately about the “bad vibes” in our office. how do I politely, yet firmly, say that her not bothering to enforce anything and just having other people cover for the fuck ups in the office is the root cause of the “bad vibes”
– what’s the best way to look like you are enjoying your time in florida without actually enjoying your time in florida?
– when you blacklist someone for having the wrong skin color, when is the right time to start calling them for an interview for your seven open positions?
– why is every sequel properly subtitled electric boogaloo? could we have a volcanic boogaloo? piercing? steam powered?
– can rafe change a tire?

HOT HOT TOPICS
– total drama (2022) improved greatly from the last season it was on and honestly was leagues better than the baby version
– also, watched the MCU up to end game recently alone. maybe it was because i wasn’t in theatres but I don’t think it deserves the hype it got.
– saturn’s rings are disappearing. what would you say to future generations who may not be able to view such wonders?
– why does my company have to reorganize its structure every year?
– a bear and a rabbit are shitting in the woods. the bear asks the rabbit if it has problems with shit sticking to its fur. the rabbit says no. the bear wiped his ass with the rabbit. was this justified? how could it have been handled differently?
– why do we have the same clusterfuck for every activity? we haven’t tried thinking about things and we’re all out of ideas should not be a company motto
– top 3 tina turner songs.

QUICK HITS
rafe played switch for the first time! she’s car shopping! the world is ending! more heat!
caleb’s worried about beans. but hey, guardians of the galaxy 3 was good (no spoilers).

fingers crossed mifepristone stays available to those that need it! fuck you, u.s. district judge matthew kacsmaryk! we think you suck and you shouldn’t hold a position of power. =^_^=

apparently desantis signed some horrifying bills (let’s not forget his attack on pregnant people where he banned abortions after SIX. WEEKS.), where people are not allowed to choose their own pronouns in school, and must use the bathrooms matching their assigned-at-birth sex in all government buildings. what the everlasting fuck, dude?

some good news, the supreme court didn’t block the illinois ban on assault weapon sales! there’s an appeal, of course.

HIGH LOWS
rafe’s high-low
high: easter weekend
low: food going bad

high: good weekend – guardians of the galaxy 3
low: chili gone wrong

HOT HOT TOPICS
– which traditionally domesticated animal do you think would be most capable of operating a gundam
– jury duty gets a bad reputation—people find it to be a burden. I find it fascinating and honestly wish I could be on a jury more frequently.
– why do I always forget about the post-travel crash until all that accumulated exhaustion haymakers me?
– why do people truncate perfectly good words? especially when the “abbreviation” is longer than the word? looking at you mr and mrs hundy p. perf, www, and other silliness
– is wegman’s overhyped? many people think it is the best grocery store ever; is it that great?
– top 3 sandwiches, of all time.
– not enough friends of the show are posting pics of what they are eating in food-hall-of-shame
– where the fuck can I move that isn’t turning into the exact dystopian nightmare I’ve been warning people about for decades. and how many more times can I be told “calm down. they’d never do that.”
