In our constant search for evening television that (1) we can agree on and (2) isn't a nightmare-inducing package of violence porn, we have started watching ancient reruns of "Deal Or No Deal," in the U.S. (Howie Mandel) original. Sometimes Meghan is one of the briefcase girls who wear satin teddies and wish the suckers luck. She was memorable in that she had freckles.
Congrats on your new website and Zaltzmanesq intro! For those of us who love names, it’s always fun to see what you bring us from the zeitgeist of branding.
Of all this, the most catchy thing to me was Young Jerks from the last caption. (It captured me?) “An Independent Brand and Packaging Studio Run By Hyper-Intelligent Golden Retrievers” says they don’t take themselves too seriously. As does “Honk if you love font”—a tiny illo on their website.
One other thing caught my eye: they describe themselves as a team of “designers, illustrators, and letterers.” That’s a term you don’t see often outside comics and manga. I like it!
Dear Tonstant Weader who fwowed up: while I agree that Markle's "love language" and related website stuff is twee (twee times too much?), I wonder if she's aiming at a demographic that leans to that kind of stuff.
A Parker quote always gets my vote.
Meghan doing her best to continue the long tradition of proving that the royals are boring af
😂

Fwiw, Snag tights are the best!
If you haven't tried our PARCH cocktails I'd love to send you some. DM me ILA @drinkparch ❤️🌵
As ever? Whatever.
There is a sports drink in Japan called Pocari Sweat.
It's famous in the name development world!
Doesn't it make you want to reach for one?

New website? Where?
Oops— I guess that https://www.wordworking.com/ is new to me; I’ve only gone to your blog and Medium before this.
I've had that domain since 1997, with design updates over the years. Every so often I look up the old iterations in the Wayback Machine.
My favorite use of "parched" is Molly's asking Leopold for her morning tea in the Calypso episode of Ulysses.
A more memorable brand for Meghan would be “My Love Language”.At least some people would tune in looking for shocking images.

Oh, for sure.
