I took Friday off to celebrate the release of Baldur's Gate 3 on PS5 and played extensively all weekend. Now it's Monday and I'm sitting in the dark drinking my coffee and trying to ready my mind to go back to work and not play video games all day. While I like my job, I would like another weekend now please.

I wish I was better at conflict, especially with my partner. It gnaws at me constantly if unresolved, gives me horrible anxiety (I'm normally not an anxious person) to the point where I can't eat or sleep. So, I tend to hold back from conflicts altogether. Not a useful solution. I wish I had better advice to offer but in place of that, please accept my commiseration. Hopefully some time to reflect and cool down will prove useful and perhaps your partner will have fresh ideas for resolution when you readdress it.

Our vet told us that cats don't really chew their food, they just kind of horf it down and sometimes use their teeth if there's a big piece of something that they can't swallow whole. Kibble seems to horf down just fine!

Looks absolutely delicious! Did you make the pappardelle? If not, what brand did you use?

Echoing the others, this is totally fixable. I recommend buying a silicone gasket rather than the standard rubber ones they come with. My rubber gasket was obliterated within 9 months of daily use, but then I bought a pack of 3 silicone gaskets on Amazon maybe four years ago and the first one is still basically pristine.

Option A has a description but options B and C don't for me.

Yeah except oyster and other shellfish shells should be returned to the ocean to decompose and alkalize the waters from which they were harvested. Surely there are other means of creating white paint for roofs and then two benefits could be gained for the environment.

Look like they might be common mergansers. Sweethearts!

One of my personal favorites. I love how it seems so abstract at first but then on closer examination, you can see the distinctive landscape elements. I find the colors so evocative. So different from his other works (that I'm familiar with, anyway).

Agreed. I bought Beyond Meat patties at Costco because mine was out of Impossible and I was sorely disappointed. Impossible or bust!

But much healthier for the cow, which I think is the reason a lot of folks are interested. Those eating plant-based for health alone are probably more likely to go for a lentil or black bean patty than Beyond/Impossible Meat.

Yeah, I think the birds are in their summer molt because I've noticed they're all looking haggard and scruffy! Nothing like their beautiful, vibrant plumage of the spring.
