That caption is 🤌

In the US, in the weeks leading up to the new school year starting late August/early September, many retailers will offer discounts on school supplies - paper, pencils and pens, backpacks, etc - to attract customers. Many clothing retailers market it to students as a great time for a wardrobe refresh or to reinvent your look entirely and offer discounts. Same deal with electronics, especially since higher math courses tend to have required calculators. Some states - including Ohio, where I live - offer a sales tax holiday on a weekend during this season to help with the expense involved.

It’s wicked expensive with just one kid, I can’t imagine having several.

I’ve lived in Ohio most of my 41 years and had never heard of goetta before just now. Googling tells me it’s mostly a Cincinnati thing, and that’s the part of the state I’ve spent the least time in. I guess that explains why I’ve not seen it, but doesn’t help me understand why it’s a state food. Spaghetti chili from Cincinnati spread a lot more than goetta. We even used to have a Skyline Chili on Union Street in Athens!

Can’t argue buckeyes though, that’s a classic.

I’m turning 42 next summer and have been thinking about hosting a Towel Party; this image is going to be very helpful.

When we’re gaming together but he gets distracted by his phone, I’ll call my husband back to the game with, “Play dom-jot, hew-mon!” but I never stab him if he’s cheating.

Am I the only person who is insanely turned on by that sentence??? I’m going to make my husband whisper it in my ear tonight 😂

This is a really impressive paint job. I zoomed in to look for evidence of pitting on the metal because the shading and distribution of the “rust” is so convincing. I love it!

This is genius! I’m so excited to tell my friends, thank you so much for this tip!

I don’t dispute for a second that Elon’s an idiot, but his ex-wife did ask him to buy and kill Twitter:

“Can you buy Twitter and then delete it, please!? xx” Riley allegedly texted Musk on March 24. “America is going INSANE.”

Maybe it’s not 3D chess but just transparent - yet effective! - stupidity. Buying Twitter was fiscally foolish, but it does seem like he’s gonna kill it, so 🤷

I suspect you might be joking and I just didn’t get it, but just in case - do your ducks actually respond to verbal cues??

I have friends with ducks, and another friend who tried to have ducks this spring and lost them all to predation, and I know they would all love to be able to get their ducks to get to bed on time.
