Otis gets the night thread because the last song I heard was his excellent cover of (I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction. Post cat pictures and be excellent to each other. Continue reading The Otis Redding Emergency Night Thread (10/4)
This is another “Write it on Friday, schedule it for Saturday while I’m traveling, make a sacrifice to the WordPress Gods so it gets posted on time” NCAA Football Thread. N.C. State let me down last week. UCF did not, … Continue reading NCAA Football – Week 5 (2025)
I’m going to be around today, but I kinda liked getting this written up a day in advance last week, so I’m doing it again, but I reserve the right to edit this on Saturday morning. This week, N.C. State … Continue reading NCAA Football – Week 4 (2025)
I’m writing this up in advance, because I will be spending my Saturday celebrating the birthday of Pa Krellis (his actual birthday was last Tuesday) and hanging out with my nephews. (They’re the best.) Also, N.C. State already played Thursday … Continue reading NCAA Football – Week 3 (2025)
As both an N.C. State graduate (Go Wolfpack!) and a Jets fan, I still can’t put into words how happy I am that UNC (Boo!) and Darth Hoodie (Boo!) got blown out by TCU last Monday night. Anyway, today we … Continue reading NCAA Football – Week 2 (2025)
If I’m putting up this thread, I’m putting N.C. State in the header. They beat ECU, 24-17 Thursday night. Not the prettiest game, but a win is a win. Go Wolfpack! A few highlights for today: Texas vs. Ohio State … Continue reading NCAA Football – Week 1 (2025)
This is the last song I listened to, so here you go. Post cat pictures, post in Tolerable Discussions, and be excellent to each other. Continue reading All You Need Is Love And An Emergency Day Thread (8/13)
PT has the rights to the Day Thread by being born on this date well before July 21 became a significant date for me. But I like to grab the Night Thread. Anyway, on the evening of July 21, 2020, … Continue reading The 7/21 Night Thread Celebrates Five Years of Julia!
Much to the chagrin of various chuds who are big mad that I have the audacity to even exist, I made it to 52. I’m also realizing I didn’t make a reference to Area 51 in my post last year … Continue reading Julia’s Birthday Day Thread Plays 52 Pick-Up (5/17)
PT has the rights to the Day Thread by being born on this date well before July 21 became a significant date for me. But I like to grab the Night Thread (even though I forgot last year). Anyway, on … Continue reading The 7/21 Night Thread Celebrates Four Years of Julia!
Somehow I made it to 51. I still don’t look that old, but I am starting to feel that old. Eh, it beats the alternative. Anyway, as usual, I signed up for today’s Day Thread and used Birthday Cat as … Continue reading The Day Thread Celebrates Julia’s Birthday Again (5/17)
How the hell am I 50 years old? Eh, it’s just a number, and I’m very lucky to look younger than my age, so I’m not gonna complain too much. (My body might complain a bit more often these days, … Continue reading Julia’s 50th Birthday Thread (5/17)
We did this the last time (though I called it the Hidden Track then, I think I like Bonus Track better), and now, there’s one last chance to make some agonizing decisions. Pick your favorite song for each letter (and … Continue reading Songs By The Letter, Volume 3: The Bonus Track! Your Favorite Songs For Every Letter
So this is my last time posting Tolerable Discussions. Our very own Rex Banner (Thank you!) has volunteered to take over posting TD starting next week, 4/19. I have confirmed that we will be keeping the current header image, because … Continue reading Tolerable Discussions 4.12.2023
Well, this is it…sort of. I do have something planned for next week, but more on that in a second. After going through all 26 letters of the alphabet, we don’t quite have every song covered. There are songs out … Continue reading Songs By The Letter, Volume 3: Your Top #@$! (And Number) Songs

In April 1983, I was a month away from turning 10. (I suppose it should go without saying that I had absolutely no idea I was actually a girl back then, but nobody else did, either.) Growing up north of … Continue reading The 4/4 Day Thread Runs Around The Court Looking For Someone To Hug
Welcome back to one of my favorite recurring features (although it does result in some agonizing decisions).
