I like true crime and all that but I couldn't watch the monsters/dahmer show. maybe too well acted? too realistic?

if I could go back and edit my genes, I think thinner legs and ankles would be nice. but overall I'm pretty happy with the hand I was dealt. just don't ask me to wear a dress or skirt. 🐘

xcel peak hour rates is nuts. luckily we're on flat rate. it's a little higher, sort of an average between day and peak. I was really starting to stress out about whether we could cook dinner with the lights on. but I am so glad the data centers have plenty of power. that's what's important.

I was disappointed when one of my favorite youtube true crime people with MILLIONS of suscribers pronounced "scarce" like "parse" and they didn't edit it with a * caption or add anything in the description. are they thinking we won't notice? or is that an alt pronunciation now?

I'm grumpy.

rather not name them but there are a couple very very popular, smart news or commentator people who are just terrible on camera or mic and should go back to writing. they slur their words, they slouch, their accents are hard to understand. I give up on them almost immediately.

I never realized how many wires and lines and pipes crisscross through the land. when we moved in to our house in weld county we were warned that there is a sinclair pipeline crossing a corner of our property, and there's a giant telecommunications cable along the edge of the property.

weld county, colorado. there is a new water line going in near us with a mysterious mission statement that they're going to bring water to those who need it. I suspect we're about to be inundated with data centers stretching from cheyenne to denver.

I don't really know who Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo are, but judging by random posts on my Facebook feed, they're spinning out.

new neighbors kind of across and over in back. we don't share a fence line but our corners meet. a month ago, I sent a postcard giving my email address & phone number but not offering anything except a cheery welcome. they haven't contacted me. was the card lost? are they jerks?

Brian Walsh pleading guilty to improper conveyance of a human body but not guilty to a murder charge is just legal hair-splitting! Goddamn lawyers!

just an observation. this cloudflare outage coincides with apple's latest security update. safari really really really wants you to surf safely and it runs private relay which uses cloudflare. it's in your icloud settings and I think it defaults to "on."
November 18, 2025 at 2:38 PM
i used to work a couple blocks away from where cloudflare san fran offices are. there are so many tech offices over there now. when I was there in 1990, it was just warehouses and a couple offices. i worked for sfweekly btw.

I’ve been watching the murdaugh mini series on hulu and I paused it just as mom and paul left for the kennels and I cannot get myself to hit play again.
