Happy birthday to the great Alan Moore, born on this day in 1953:
"As people get more desperate, history suggests that they're not going to rise in a mighty proletarian tidal wave and wash away their oppressors. They're gonna turn on each other."

@Qbae

Amen.
I love living someplace new, but hate packing.

CS Lewis was right.

Once you process - things get manageable.

@NiveusLepus

It *is* high. In multiple senses of the word.

They're polyester. At least the velvets I have samples of are.
(It says on the fabric swatch, but I didn't see that info anywhere online.)

@rpardee

Yes. Turmeric. And it wiped off without a trace.

I can still smell it a little, but no stain.

@Zevon

I'm actually looking at the Wine, Essex, (dark blue-green) or French Blue... and the wood legs with brass caps.

I like the default color, but my decor is mostly blues and greens, with accents of dark red.

@EnochianEntropy

They are the sources of the stains on my current couch. (Which I bought because it was cheap but still decent looking.)

I eat there, and food + cats and my own clumsiness means spills.

@Zevon

A classic look, with modern touches.

I really like the high back and medium arms--good for sitting up and reading or laying down and watching TV.

Looking at sofas. I'll be buying one after I move, but went ahead and got some fabric samples for my favorite.

I like this company. They have fabric options that are specifically cat-friendly (snag-resistant).

I just took my favorites, including a light blue one, and put curry powder, oil, and soy sauce on them to see how much they stained.

I was able to completely wipe them clean with just a paper towel. Even the light blue has zero visible stain and feels clean.

My mom used to make hers with some stuffing in it... and the green beans were my least favorite part.

(I like green beans, just not in a casserole.)

Now I'm thinking that a mushroom casserole might be good. I always like to have some mushroom dish on the table for Thanksgiving. Maybe a "not-stuffed" mushroom casserole, where the stuffing ingredients are a layer, topped with crispy breadcrumbs.

@catlynne333

She's been howling a lot lately, making all kinds of threats. Accusing Biden of trying to start WWII. Threatening consequences if Republicans don't approve RFK jr's appointment. To this "national divorce" BS.

She must be concerned because Trump hasn't picked her for any cabinet positions. Afraid of being overlooked.

Howl louder. He might notice.
