Today I read about how almost all the Cybertrucks are being recalled. It’s not much, but it’s something to go on!
Passions this week include The Residence, Mike and Ike Mega Mix, and Jean Grae.
I started watching The Residence on Netflix, and I’m just gonna say it. Shonda knows what we need. She knows when we need medical procedurals and she knows when we need a whodunnit in the White House. And right now, it’s time for a whodunnit in the White House. With Ken Marino no less! There was the one time at the Grove AMC when we saw him alone in the twister air booth with his shirt up, and in my eyes, that only made him better.
Mike and Ike makes this option called a “Mega Mix” where they whip out all ten flavors they claim they’ve had all along. But these flavors make no sense. One of them is kiwi banana. What’s going on there? Another one is peach berry. What berry? Why is it there? And maybe you’re thinking they must all be “combos” but then why is plain watermelon there? How about Grape Soda? Didn’t see that coming, did you? Each Mike and Ike threatens my molars in a way no other candy does, so when the flavors are that wacky, really makes it worth the risk.
Jean Grae is an artist who can do everything really well. Musician, comedian, style icon, extremely good cook, visual artist, writer, and BELIEVE ME THE LIST GOES ON. I know you’re thinking “but that’s not fair” and it isn’t, but that’s okay! Accept mediocrity, wear it proudly. It feels good. Anyway, Jean’s got a new memoir out called In My Remaining Years that’s funny and captivating, just everything you want it to be and more. Go check it out!
And now some from the readers…
Ben: “I am passionate about no longer hiding the fact that I am a night owl. That is why I am sending this email at 12:49 EST instead of doing the cowardly thing and scheduling it to go out tomorrow at 7:42 AM. There is no shame in being a night owl (30% of us are), and I think it's high time society stops looking down on us.”
Kat: “One of my recent passions is to drape my underpants over the radiator while I take a shower in the winter. What a nice way to start the day, with warm underwear right out of the shower.”
