Practical Whimsy

One woman's search for an equal balance of whimsy and practicality in a world that doesn't have enough of either.

@NovaSoftInt I'm trying to play chapter 3 and this puzzle won't let me keep any buttons pressed 😭😭

Honestly the idea of Mike Pence being president for 12 hours or something, so that everyone who looks back at the list of U.S. Presidents generations from now is like "WTF happened there?", is another (small) reason to vote on removal *before* Trump leaves office.

Just came across this @BarackObama thank you letter while cleaning out my files. Infinitely preferable to the 1000 text messages I received this election that makes me reconsider ever donating again... #Election2020

Dear #MAGA Trump supporters,
Here's a reality check:
If the Democrats really could somehow manipulate the votes, I guarantee you we would not have left Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham and Susan Collins in office!

Big news! Starting in 2021, @BurgerKing will partner w/ #Loop to pilot reusable containers for sandwich containers for the Whopper ® to beverage cups for soft drinks and coffee.

New York City, Portland, and Tokyo will be the first to have access w/ more cities planned to follow.

Boston will never not Boston as hard as it can and I love it so much.

A happy day: #TheWestWing special, a new t shirt from my sister, and a personal moratorium on the Town Halls. #WestWingWeekly #WestWing #notoriousrbg #TWWW #election2020 https://t.co/dwCAYf7oRD

When Trump walked through the doors, Walter Reed had a stellar reputation. As he walks out 72 hours later, its reputation is in tatters. There's nothing Trump can't ruin.

When someone shares their deeply personal & often intensely painful story we should react w/ empathy & compassion, not judgment.

Amidst this ridiculous, painful year and the onslaught of horrifying political moves, let’s try to practice empathy and embrace compassion.

Thank you @chrissyteigen & @johnlegend for sharing your story. As a society, we only discuss “successful” pregnancies. Other outcomes - voluntary or involuntary - are too often shadowed in darkness due to a cultural tendency to treat them with shame.

The #Trump voodoo doll I made out of my daughter's art scraps. Now to figure out how to replicate #McConnell! #election2020 #biden2020 https://t.co/pjq9gTmbZ6

So it turns out, when you pretend something isn't there, it doesn't actually go away. Particularly when it's a deadly, highly contagious virus. #TexasCOVID #COVIDー19 #AbbottFailedTexas #coronavirus #TexasCovid19 #WearAMask #WearADamnMask

@Smidget3D I'm so sorry I missed this tweet - and more sorry for your loss. I know exactly how you feel. Sending virtual hugs over the internet.

11 and a half years ago, I had a late-term abortion. I don't owe you my story, but anyone looking to legislate, owes it to me and every other woman in this country to listen to it. And to every single other #YouKnowMe #1in4 story being told right now.

@BostonRy What exactly is Bavarian cream?
