Update to the classic "only one bed" scenario: "Oh good they have a room left with two beds" that devolves into "omg the shower situation!"
I stayed in a bunch of hotels the past few weeks while traveling, and two hotels had some privacy issues with their showers. In one there were peephole windows into the shower from the main room. In another there was glass separating the shower from the room, with only the middle section of the glass fogged. The condensation obscured the rest, but you still get a clear view of the person's silhouette from the bed. Very nice for couples. Otherwise ... well, imagine your otp, etc.
Listen to me. Listen to me. Listen to me. Listen to me.
I know there is a lot of discourse (tm) around this right now but listen to me
sometimes you do just have to lie to children.
If, when my toddler is, you know, toddling around saying “mama? Big ball?”
If I were lean down and say “unfortunately the big beach ball for some reason fills you with such an unadulterated rage that is beyond human comprehension that you scream until you pass out, so mama had to remove the beach ball from the premises until you can better regulate your emotions” she would simply stare at me like I had 3 heads full of equal betrayal.
So, for now, instead “big ball went night night!”
Please understand when I say “removed the ball from the premises” I mean I popped it in a fit of exhausted confusion. I murdered the beach ball.
See I’ve lied to you all too and it was better this way.
you can’t just leave this in the tags etc.
You can’t be funnier then me on my own posts, I’m in tears from laughter

Still getting the occasional note on my 11-year-old Tom and Ann post. That’s ... so weird.
When you said, “Call Rick,”… when you said, “We’re done,” did you think we were done? ……………………………. No.

I just know I'm in the minority on this one, but let's prove it. If you had to pick one that you could turn on or off at will, permanently losing access to the other in your home,
Bonus: tell me about the climate where you live in the tags
Much closer margin than I was expecting by this point. Overwhelming amount of the heating votes coming from the UK, y'all are real ones 🇬🇧

Screenshot reads as follows:
The new Emergency Alerts system will be tested nationally on Sunday 23rd April.
The system will warn people when their lives are in danger. An Emergency Alert is a loud, siren-like sound with a message on your mobile phone screen.

The Emergency Alerts system is now live and it will be used to warn people when lives are in danger
Please don't ignore this as people with mental health conditions, those in abusive environments, et cetera, who are unaware of this might panic or be in harms way.
More info for domestic abuse survivors here: https://www.housing.org.uk/news-and-blogs/news/emergency-alerts-information-for-domestic-abuse-survivors/
Please pre-alert anyone who might be endangered by this or who might just be totally alarmed by their phone making a loud noise and sending them an 'Emergency Alert' text. Many people may be concerned that it's a hoax even if the message clarifies it's a test. For neurodivergent people or people with PTSD this is also a risk. It could just be super annoying in the theatre or if you're putting a baby to sleep.
Either by preparing or by turning it off, please get yourself and friends and family ready
I watched My Big Fat Greek Wedding for the first time today with my roommates, and was utterly charmed by how there is literally no conflict in the main romantic relationship. any time you think they’re edging towards something, it was nothing. Ian remembers meeting Toula when she was frump girl? not a problem, he doesn’t remember frump girl, he remembers her. Gus yells at Ian for not asking permission, and then denies him permission? not a problem, Ian calmly tells Toula he’ll see her tomorrow. Toula freaks out and wants to elope because her family will be sad they can’t get married in the Church? not a problem, Ian gets baptized Greek Orthodox. no matter what happens, Ian is there, calmly doing whatever will make Toula happy, because he loves her, and he knows she’s worth it, and he never once doubts that.
