Someone on my street puts out light, nonsensical lawn signs. Replaces them every few weeks. I assume he’s mocking lawn sign people and if so, I need to meet him.

The squirrel isn't just a squirrel Peanut is for everyone who has ever feared that someone more powerful than you could walk into your home and take something that you absolutely cherish away from you, for absolutely no good reason, with no recourse

Conspiracy theorists who keep saying there’s “no way” the hurricane could have intensified so much without some human cause are so close to getting it.

My experience was different - it took constant effort to not dive right back. (Just adding this to encourage folks who (like me) were slow to that amazing epiphany. There are many paths, & I love learning about them all & am so grateful to you for sharing.) #RecoveryPosse
The day that I stopped drinking I knew there was no going back That lifestyle had to be gone forever Many years of Sobriety later I still know this to be true Who else has had this feeling?

My feed is flooded with "I've been sober for X days Y minutes" posts, and if you think I care/ am going to applaud every single stranger I come across who manages to stay sober for another inch of life...you're damn right I am. #RecoveryPosse (PS - I've got 432 days!)

The pilot on my flight last night announced shortly after takeoff that we'd be landing ahead of schedule because he "found a couple of shortcuts." Either physics is a lie or someone's been tampering with/ disabling the cockpit smoke detector. Thrilling possibilities both.

My ducks may not be in a row, but at least they're having fun. Your ducks probably hate you for making them line up like that.

If someone could only say one sentence to get me to trust them, it would be “I’ve been wrong about many things.”

Good News: If you really enjoy unfalsifiable claims about what was secretly motivating Supreme Court Justices that just happen to align with the claimant's politics, tomorrow is probably going to be a great day for you.
