“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

Yeah, these next three weeks are going to be ROUGH
I'm already behind for the week because I had a bunch of meetings sprung on me, and a bunch of tickets finally got answered after I turned things off last Monday
And that's on top of choir stuff and other plans

I keep seeing videos with titles like "This FAILED 80s Cartoon - The TRUE Story" & it's a show with 78 episodes that aired every afternoon for 5 years.

The frequent ones:
-"Can you recommend a book for me?" (no, unless it's manga)
-"Do you know the Dewey Decimal System?" (no, but I'm down with the LCC)
-"You must like books, huh?" (they're fine?)
-"Isn't everything online now?" (Who do you think makes it do you can get the good online stuff?)

What’s the worst question someone can ask after you tell them your profession? For linguists, it’s definitely “how many languages do you speak?”, but I’m curious what else is happening to the rest of y’all out there?!

Mmmm, few things are as satisfying as making soup without needing to check the recipe, nailing the seasoning on the first go (usually it needs at least *some* adjusting?)
Oh, and then eating said soup, which is avgolemono, probably my favorite of all the soups 🤤

New pair arrived today
As soon as I put them on and zipped them up I was like "OOOOOOOO" 😮
1. Thanks to choir friend who clued me in that the store now carried "short" inseams (I needed it...even still they're almost too long)
2. I will need to buy another pair or two in the not-too-distant future

Grrr, they finally enshittified the YouTube casting on my old Chromecast (so now there's a ton more ads, including the obnoxiously long ones that you have to jump to hit "skip" on)....
It used to be that the Chromecast app was better than other platforms? Now it's the same level of shitty? 😩

Guys, I don't care *how* good your fancy-pants strawberries are (or that FreshDirect is more expensive than most).......
I'm not spending $35 on fancy strawberry/anko spread........I can buy SO MANY packs of anko and fresh (normal) strawberries for that (and have money left over for mochi nuggets)

We saw #RentalFamily and it was really good? I liked that it didn't fall into really easy story cliches (or do much hand-holding) and the characters were interesting
Plus it was amusing to hear a famous American actor speaking Japanese for parts of the movie?

My mom, explaining what a local pizza place had: "it's pizza dough but inside is a chicken caesar salad"
Me (who told her about the #Handwich yesterday): "So....a handwich?"
Mom: "....yeah, exactly"

In the final-ish phases of clearing out my old room, and this poster collage was back behind my old bed for AGES
Not *only* did I have the giant random collages, but when I was taking it apart there were bonus ones behind (and it's funny that Ranma is a thing again)

The stuffing is done, the green beans are basically ready to come out of the oven, next is turkey time
Thankfully my work is mostly done after the turkey goes in the oven? (Because I am tired..........)

Since the weather is unseasonably warm today (and will be cold after today), we've moved the annual family tradition of "bickering while putting up Christmas lights" up to today 😮💨

I'm eating well this week? 😅
