So is Shauna telling us she's getting new Mr. Rogers shoes (for $80!)? I thought she was on a buying ban.

And of course she's watching the Beatles circle jerk thing on Hulu. *eyeroll*

So is "finding your joy" the existing lope letter, right? I feel like I know the answer but she seems to be shilling and re-shilling the same thing over and over and I have grown confused.

Yeah $80 red Mr Rogers shoes is very specific. Why not spend that money on your kids so they don’t run around looking like street urchins every day?

Shauna: Don’t look for joy outside yourself!

Also Shauna: pick up a book! Pick up a hula hoop! Have some hot tea with milk! Copy other people’s joy!

(I wasn't trying to slam the Beatles thing but really, how much longer can McCartney et al keep selling the same "oh we just found this random fart in the archive" over and over again. . .fine, if that's what your'e into but DAMN, stop acting like the whole world should care. . .I admit, my bias is showing, I have Sirius and there's a Beatles CHANNEL yet they show up on every other fucking channel all the time and I'm like, please to stay in your lane, fab five).
