breathe
relax your shoulders
unclench your jaw
don't forget to moisturize neck too
dress warm enough for your current weather
fuck ice
It's Friday night in Minnesota (just after 6 p.m.) and I'm wondering if you've had something to eat lately or have plans for food. Be sure to eat!

Also hydrate! (Moisturize too.)

Take any meds you might take however you take them.

Take a break & relax & have a little fun if you can.

Fuck ICE.

Tonight at bedtime my 7 yr old was recapping the entire Star Wars trilogy to me when he deftly dropped:
“…and then Princess Leia choked Jabba the Hut. And he died. And then Jabba the Hut’s gangster days were over”.

too many kids today have never destroyed the family PC with sketchy downloads

you must learn to fear Computer before you can properly wield Computer
folks today don't know the abject fear of inadvertently downloading, for the first (and only lol) time, a .exe file from kazaa or limewire and it shows

def one of those "it only takes one time to learn" but oooo boy at what cost for that single instance

I don’t think we should allow the secret police to round people up and sort them by race
More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

And if you spent time working on this only to see it perverted by the broligarchs, you have my sympathy. But I am still never using it and will do everything I can to encourage others to take the same stance. The well has been poisoned. Sorry.

Notepad should not know what the internet is. If you have notepad talking to remote servers you're already like 10 steps into a "factors leading to" slide.

What the heck are they doing over there
The AI features added to Notepad created a critical exploit vulnerable to loading a compromised txt file.

The fix is part of Patch Tuesday, so update your systems.

AI is not a feature I ever desired in Notepad. I should look into some alternatives...

This is why you need to be reading books and writing your own emails, by the way. When you outsource your thinking abilities, you risk turning your brain into soup. Heavy dependence on AI has already been linked with severe cognitive decline. What you don’t use, you will lose.

knitters, crocheters, and even sewists are making hats for others too. find your friendly fiber artist and you can likely pay them for their work on a hat by donating to ones of these orgs. (don't skimp, this is skilled manual labor that takes time)
Oh, wow, I hadn't heard the latest amount. Over $600,000 is a huge help.
For anyone *not a knitter* please feel free to check out the the link below for a wide group of Minnesota helpers.

A friend of ours was able to be a test subject for an mRNA vaccine for an aggressive form of breast cancer. Completely worked. It is one of the greatest miracles of science and like 40% of the country turned it into The Jab because they are mushheaded simpletons.
