Gotta hand it to whoever designed that amber alert sound. You really are going to kill someone with adrenaline shock one of these days
Go make yourself a nice little summer sandwich - thick planks of cucumber, cilantro, mint, peanut butter, and sriracha
*while I believe it would have been better suited to a limited series* I’m once again delighted at how good the Project Hail Mary movie is
The movie "The Odyssey" is great. But if this was 1992, we would all be listening to the Bryan Adams power ballad hit "Making My Way to You (love theme from "The Odyssey")
Moved a half-cord of wood in 32° heat instead. It’s just easier.
