One of my kids woke up today complaining about pain in his jaw. After some investigation, there was some substantial swelling around his jaw, so we went to the dentist to get it checked out. Luckily, it wasn’t an abscess, but the dental x-rays didn’t show any infection in the area.

A particularly terrifying way to be startled awake when you were like 95% asleep is to have your child start sleep-talking in the next room over and saying words that aren’t quite English.

Really tempted to take part in the general strike on Friday, but I kinda missed all of my classes last week because of the flu. Not sure how forgiving my professors will be of me missing another day.

The fact that I’m considering three Oreos “lunch” today is a good indicator of how my Monday is going.

I just had to reset passwords to three different accounts to recover the authenticator code for the app that my university uses. I needed to do all of this so that I can add my university ID to my mobile wallet so that I can go to the gym. Hashtag firstworldproblems

I don’t want to make a Ubisoft account to play this game that I bought, and it is starting to seem like Ubisoft doesn’t want me to make an account, either. The confirmation email with the verification code refuses to go to my email, so I can’t finish the signup process.

I made a choice to stay offline as much as possible today. I read some RPGs, finished building a LEGO set, played some video games, I walked my dog twice.
You know what I'm going to say: it was a great choice, with no downside. I highly recommend it.

Listening to the Old Man’s War audiobook tonight, and chapter 7 has me holding back out-loud laughter while my family sleeps.

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

Maybe not, but they are the ones undermining trust in the legislature. Fighting Prop 4 and the redistricting stuff every step of the way has been a seriously awful look for our elected officials in Utah.
Rep. Gricius defends the resolution and says "we're just letting an activist group make decisions" on the congressional map. She says it's the legislature's power to redistrict.
"We are not the ones undermining the trust in the judiciary. They did that to themselves..."

Doing the little hobbies, activities & side quests you love is so hard & so important, because they're *not* little, they're how you choose to delight in being alive, but Capitalism & its flunkeys continually tell us that Work is the only true & moral thing, & revokes food & shelter if we shirk it.
