Made me super dizzy and lightheaded at first. It went away quickly.

One down, one to go. But I’m already so relieved!

He’d been fighting cancer for years.

Hello all! I’m a writer and horrible at poetry (although I do enjoy reading it) but I’m working on a play about a cowboy poet. Most of the poems will be from a singer/songwriter and are complete. But I’m trying to absorb as much as I can on my end of this genre.

Does anyone have a poet or a compilation they favor that you could recommend?

Thanks!

One of my clients is a restaurant and while I have food staging experience and some decent equipment- I’m struggling with the light and glare in the restaurant for photography.

I’m no photography expert. I’M a writer doing social media. I’m barely above novice but it’s the only client I am struggling with. I can’t use a box or go shoot after hours so there’s less glare. And client wants environmental photos showing it’s taken in the dining room.

Spent forever trying to shoot this.

But compared to my other clients, it’s a struggle. Without a huge investment in more equipment- ideas?

Several top infectious-disease experts said Monday the variant may not have originated in the United Kingdom. Instead, it may have been identified there first because the United Kingdom has a robust monitoring system that has examined tens of thousands of genomic sequences of virus samples.

The United States has lagged in sequencing and does not have nearly the same level of virus surveillance.

“It may very well be here. It may have even started here. The sequencing in the U.S. is so sporadic,” said Jeremy Luban, a virologist at the University of Massachusetts Medical School

Wow. That’s quite a statement about the country that won the race to the moon.

Made this “make-ahead” gravy yesterday in between candy making and organizing my Tupperware drawer 😂 Took forever but was yummy.

Saved half for Turkey day and used half with roasted chicken quarters at dinner. Really good gravy. Probably the best I’ve ever made.

We’re smoking our turkey so I added a dash of liquid smoke. And I put a quarter cup of powdered cream in with my flour to make it richer - but I’m not sure I needed it!

I seldom listen to her (TuneIn), but when she isn’t on a script and has to be on her feet she sounds just lost.

Is she ill?

I am looking for recommendations for a good article or journal piece that looks at the electoral shitshow/ I mean college and breaks it down. I want to really understand why it was implemented, how it was pro/slave owning, why we still have it, etc.

Yes, I know how to work Google Scholar. I’m looking for recommendations of writings you guys have liked, bookmarked, saved.

TIA

Alive and living through a crushing defeat is good.
Alive and forced to deal with multiple investigations and indictments is good.
Alive and forced to spend what money is left (because he’s burned Duetche Bank and lost his usefulness to Putin) is good.
Alive and on TV daily, but now broken and forced to sit behind the defendant’s table, with no adoring crowds or adulation.
Alive and sitting in jail is good.

... should be allowed wine if the next debate is such a shit show.
