I will be found taking in a long decompression weekend at the family compound in Northern Michigan. Not doing shit but watching golf, sitting in the sun, and downing vodka sodas. Go get ’em, gang.
It’s absolutely crushing and I feel your pain; currently living the same scenario. A friend poached the rare, long July 4th weekend last year with a Sunday, 7/3 wedding too. Who raised these goddamn animals?!
As someone who lives far from all family members but close enough that it’s not unreasonable to use, dropping the “family visiting” card is my go-to for avoiding peripheral acquaintances. My close friends are in the loop too, and always circle back with other, actually enjoyable plans once the acquaintance-danger has passed.
I always felt like the four seasons exist in halves, with 8 seasons of varying value. Early summer? Amazing. Early fall? Heaven on earth. Late summer? Gets exhausting. Late winter? Depression. Early spring? Vile, ugly, cold, wet brown slush hell. Fuck you, early spring.
The only way this is close is if it’s a Donkey and Diddy Kong scenario where it’s 2-1. Polar bear in a literal slaughtering. Don’t forget the bear has claws, too. Insane, flesh-tearing, bowel-exposing, gore-producing claws, to add to its height, weight, teeth, and perpetual desire to levy death upon friend, foe, and fools alike.
Considered a dehumidifier? It won’t cool anything but the difference in an 80 degree room at 80% humidity and 50% humidity is huge. Not a terribly huge investment either.
Going to be late as hell on this Friday, day of days. Made a fresh pot, poured my thermos full, and got halfway to work without it. Yes, I’m turning around to get it. Priorities. Go get ’em, today gang!
No kidding. I knew maybe two people out of my network of friends and classmates in college who got paid internships, and both were because of a connection dropping it in their lap. They effectively didn’t exist.
Spur of the moment big plays are always legendary for their high-water marks, or, the depraved, sub-human lows you all hit. Often, one trip includes multiples both. Good luck.
Smack dab in the middle of the busiest two weeks of the year at work, I’ve been existing (functioning is too generous a term) on caffeine almost exclusively; a trend I expect to continue. Lord, coldbrew me strength!

Detectorists. Very dry, droll British comedy, but if that suits you, it’s excellent. It’s shot beautifully as well, so it’s even nice to look at.
Congrats! Can’t beat riding a wave into the weekend.

“So is eBay my browser?”
No, Sharon. eBay is not your browser.

Well then. No PFG for ole Rim!
Nothing says “give this person a raise” like hitting the boss with AI’s Tyronn Lue step-over after dropping their ass with a little shimmy.

This is like spray-painting a Ferrari.
Fuck Iceland.
Agreed. Nothing like a mindless debate to ease you into the week.

I feel like Ross isn’t mad, he’s just very disappointed.
