If you decide to replace it, and are up to a bit of a challenge, I'd recommend building your own. It's leagues cheaper.

Yeah, me either. It's why I had Preston do it.

For all of his labor, I bought him a pack of salty caramel chocolate cookies and a snack-sized cream-filled angel food cake. He provides technical know-how and labor, I provide... desserts.

Now that is how capitalism should work.

I mean, working in a bakery... it sort of is how it works for me? I provide sweets for people, and in return I get to live.

That sounds like something out of Les Mis. That's as far as I got, I can't make a more specific joke at the moment.

And with how grumpy I am of late, I probably would spend my whole life tracking down someone who stole some bread. Fuck you man, that's my bread.

No. Can't justify magazine subscriptions when I never get around to reading them plus can barely make rent. But most of their stuff gets posted online (eventually), so if there was something you wanted to show me you could probably find it on their website! Or their pinterest, which they have iirc.

Okay, well next time you're waiting in line in the market��, spend some time reading the article on page 70 ��

Oh I don't know. It was part of the log cabin feature. I can check. I didn't even see it until long after I got home. I went back and bought it after perusing different articles in it last week. It's a good issue. I'm always a sucker for autumnal issues of magazines.

The last time I visited my grandma's, I flipped through some magazines on her coffee table but they were terribly disappointing. Instead of "here's how to get this cute look," it was all "look at these disgustingly rich people and their rich homes! It's not decorated nicely or anything, just look how big! They put up some tacky art that cost them thousands, how cultured! Okay, that's it, end of magazine."

If the current issue has your seal of approval, maybe I'll pick up a copy at work or something. Would give me something to read on break.

I would recommend it, yeah. I leafed through it at the store, Was iffy about spending the money on it, so put it back. Then spent the next day and a half the king about the articles I saw. So I went back. Don't regret it.

How much to magazines even cost? I tried browsing the website to find what article you may be referencing, but their website has turned into some crazy clickbait.

yeah, I looked for it too, and couldn't find it there. There were some okay looking links, but it wasn't really mobile friendly. The magazine was 4.99. I mean, that's about standard now a days, but they were cheaper when I was a whippersnapper, so it seems outrageous to me.

Oh, yikes. Maybe I'll see if my mom is still subscribed and if I can have the issue when she's done with it.

Can I just say that target's latest/current/promoted home decor options are so on point? I really think Cherry in particular would like them.

So a mention of this Q&A for today popped up on my tumblr a few days ago and I thought I'd take a look; and like I've only read 10 tweets and I don't get this guy at all? He LIKED that great expectations production from a few years ago? He thought that there would be a chance for friendship/romance/sexy times between Pip and Estrella at the end? The girl is BROKEN and Pip moved to another CONTINENT. Biddy is his least favourite character in all the books? I agree that she needed to be expanded more, but that were some subtle moments with her that left quite the impression on me. I don't know it sounds like he's got too much personal headcanon going on in these.

Twitter seems like a weird venue for a literature Q&A, especially since they keep sacrificing characters for their hashtags. Can't really get a proper answer on anything, from what it looks like. :/

This is true. It's just such a common platform I guess it's used for lack of options.

Twitter does have the advantage of being fast and interactive, so I guess it's useful for "live" events.

I never quite finished Great Expectations and didn't see the movie adaptation, so I don't think I can contribute much. But I'd feel like a jerk to not even acknowledge that conversation going on, so I'm acknowledging it here.

Also yeah Twitter Q&A's, especially if they're saddled with a lengthy hashtag (bonus stupid points if you also have to @ someone), are stupid. Use tumblr or facebook.
