Anybody else joining in on the #TwitterExodus ?

Yep. Trying out Bluesky.

My 4 year old daughter has been obsessed with her little brother's parasaurolophus toy, and keeps saying its hers. I've finally gotten it in her head that it's her brother's, and she needs to ask to share before taking it from him. She's gotten scolded multiple times for this.

So today, she got reeeal close to him and I hear her saying in a low, menacing tone into his ear "this is my parasaurolophus". I interrupted her there, but I feel like if I hadn't she may have finished "either in this life or the next."

Kids are terrifying people.

Ever thought of giving her her own Para...whatever? Kids, and by extension, their parents, go through quite the Dinosaur phase, followed closely by Legos.

Intense game holy moly. Really hope there are no injuries out of this one. While it is fun to watch you cannot have too many of these games early in the season. Injuries play such a big role in this league.

Thought the Wild played pretty bad hockey in the first with a lot of sloppy passes and fumbled pucks. Much better in the second where it also felt like they drew energy from all the small squabbles and battles along the ice. The officials also let them play which was kind of unusual. In light of this it did not surprise me they let the trip of Kaprizov go in OT. It fit the line they called the game all evening.

OT was wild with mistakes on every side. Rossi giveaway (after a bad pass into his skates) immediately followed by the game winner was a good reminder just how close this game and most of the last few Wild wins have been. Carter mentioned it during the start of the game: the Wild do not score enough goals and while this will work for a while at some point it will catch up to us. The team needs to put the puck into the net more consistently pretty soon.

This is nitpicking on a high level though. The team is still rolling, Gus is still on top of his game, Kap is still scoring almost like he wants to. Confidence is sky high and as long as that is the case this team will keep on winning games.

Went to see Nosferatu on Xmas Day. I really liked it, but some in my group weren't so high on it. Anyone else see it and what did think?

If anyone was debating buying from Feller’s Ranch that sponsors Russo and LaPanta’s podcast, highly recommend! Not cheap certainly but I don’t think it’s outlandish. Not much more than buying a good cut from better grocery stores/butchers, but if you feel good about your steak game it is definitely worth it!

I picked up some ribeyes, tenderloins, and skirt steak. Both cuts of steak were fantastic and the skirt steak made the best tacos I’ve made to date.
