So much for catching a break until Thursday.

These weather "predictions" are the most cogent proof of climate change. The old models, based on historical data, just don't work anymore.

Taking advantage of a couple hours of sane brain before the pressure dives again...

I expect this is a case of not mistaking for malice what can be explained by...uh...slack. ;)

And now I close my eyes for a few hours.

I don't get out of migraine jail for at least another 24h.

Relentless.

I was supposed to be ok this weekend but the forecast has changed.

Here we go again!

Separated at birth?

1993 vs 2025

NeXT Cube vs Steam Machine

Made me smile, although I remembered them looking a lot more alike.

Even though NeXT failed, it changed user experience forever. Kind of like the pre-Mac Lisa but for the Unix family of OSs.

Just another 36h migraine

Here we go again!

Climate change -- not a hoax but for sure an utter bitch to live thru.

Dude who wrote dodgy exposé of Biden/staffers called "Original Sin" gets dodgy.

Two years ago.

I miss my birds.

Ugh.
November 7, 2025 at 7:23 PM
This is relentless. Tomorrow morning the pressure plummets again...

Ok, Zeus just hates me.

Follow the red line. Noonish I'll be poleaxed again.

I feel like the canary in the coal mine of climate change.

I really need to get to this dentist appointment today, or it will be another three months.

But the pressure hasn't even started to go back up after plummeting overnight.
November 4, 2025 at 2:40 PM
Also, headlines.
November 4, 2025 at 2:30 PM
I suspect the increase in useless posts from a LOT of news media is the product of #ai or simple automation savng money on social media staff.

Headline/sub
Same headline/sub
Same headline/sub again

At least it doesn't lend to embarrassment from hallucinations.

We who are about to die, salute you.

Another day where the weather prediction was way off.

Rogan and Musk need to lay off the weed.

The threats to Nigeria seem so bonkers.

So I followed the money.

Happy World Lemur Day -- treats, no tricks!

It will feel so good when it stops. Usually 2h after the pressure starts climbing again.
October 31, 2025 at 2:46 PM
Gonna seriously be hating life for the next bit.

Red line is mercury falling -- migraine apps use inHg rather than millibars for historical reasons.

More than 45 degrees for an hour or two means I'm huddled in bed, in quiet dark, with a worried dog.
