Went to #vote today, and they were out of stickers. And I forgot #ProofOfVote outside the location. But I *did* grab this selfie at home, instead!

So, the high voltage #battery in my 2009 Escape #Hybrid finally died. So, now we have a brand-new-to-us #Chevy Bolt.

Did you know that Apple Podcasts has karaoke mode? This is quite handy in language learning, I've found. I'm willing to bet other podcast apps have a similar mode, too, but I don't have experience with them.

Avi Loeb has spoken.

Well, **that** was anticlimactic. I just finished the @duolingoverde.bsky.social #Spanish course and all I got was this lousy screenshot! Seems they’d give a nice badge or an attaboy or something…

The #market has been on a bad tear since orange dingleberry and the ass he’s attached to started screwing with the government and demolishing international relations. This is the last 12 months. Your #retirement going down the drain.

#TSLA stock over the last few months, through today. It peaked at $488.54. This could change at any point, but the short term outlook is bleak. Cybertruck a dud. 4680 battery delayed and obsolete. FSD dangerous. Is the muskrat still the richest?
