1. I could do laundry tips or fur babies or grammarly.com’s commercials.
2. I’ve also caught some real doozies in political tv ads lately. The one where an elderly woman is traumatized by the burglar crashing through her back door while a voiceover says there’ll be no police to help her in Biden’s America is particularly pointed.
3. Trump and his “I approve this message” can kiss my ass.
4. Then there’s how I managed to pour a healthy dollop of ranch dip down my armchair.
5. Except now my brain pops off into holy-hell-it’s-ferociously-hot world.
6. I’m supposed to go running tomorrow morning. RUNNING. I have serious concerns about this.
7. Someone remind me why I thought Couch to 5k was a good idea in the hellscape that is North Carolina summer? ‘Cause I’m drawing a blank.
8. I also draw a blank on what we’re gonna have for dinner this week. Seriously. I’ve got nothing.
9. But I’d better figure out something ’cause it’s not like I can go to the store without a list. That’s how I end up back home with snack food, eggs, cheddar cheese, and no milk.
10. So I could do laundry tips or fur babies or grammarly.com’s commercials but I think I’ll just wrap this one up and say better luck tomorrow. Peace out.
Political ads? Fie! I’m like Carol, a ‘cord cutter’ and I only stream. I don’t have to watch such idiocy as what you described. Is Biden going to do away with the police in total or something? Just another example of Orange Doody-head’s convoluted thought processes. Auuugggh. Stay cool girl. Your kids need you (both the fur and the two legged kind)…salads and/or meal in a can (like chili or something) are what I plug in when I don’t know ‘what’s for dinner’ and I got no beef in the house 😆

I’m a huge fan of streaming. Unfortunately I’ve gotten into Hulu shows and they’re ad supported — the politicians are taking advantage. I can only imagine how they’ll amp this up as we get closer to November. Ugh.

You have reminded me why I am quite happy I no longer have TV as such. I gave up DirecTV when I realized I was paying too much a month for things I don’t watch, so I’m now a cord-cutter and only stream. No political ads – hallelujah! I think they often end up on the edge of libel (or is it slander? I used to know the difference.)

We’re *sorta* streaming only. At least that’s almost all I watch. We have sling tv on streaming cable so we can get news and sports but these days I’m always watching Hulu — that’s where the dumb political ads keep popping up! I’ve got to work on my speed muting skills.

Of course, you have to adapt them to accommodate any allergies. I alternated vegetarian with meat stuff. But here is a weekdays worth.

These ads are really mood spoilers. I guess you can wring it this week. Open your cupboards and see what you can make with what is there. I’ve done this often during this lockdown. Some substitutions do work.
