"Live, kinda, from all across America: It's the Sunday newsletter." I spent this morning sipping coffee that I accidentally brewed to espresso-level strength and watching last night's episode of SNL . This is the second episode they've filmed from home, and I've watched both of them with a level of desperation normally reserved for trying to make it to Xian Famous Foods before closing time.

I've noticed recently...

Heyyyyyyyy folks. If I could play "rose, bud, thorn" today with everyone reading this newsletter right now, I would. And you know what my rose would be? Talking to you. My bud?

Anyway, we have a full slate of good stuff from the past two days that were published on site, including but not limited to: solving shopping conundrums , contemplating monotonous thought patterns in a beautiful way, answering quarantine-specific etiquette questions .

What can I say, their brains just do it for me! Hopefully they make your HuMp dAy a little bit better. — Amalie ...
