You might know me from: community theater, dance, SF con / tech.
I might talk about: food, language, UX, absurdity of existence.

If you think I should follow you back and I might not recognize you, please introduce yourself.
Cereals I don't love: most anything involving chocolate (because it's never chocolatey enough) or cinnamon. Cereal I am finding surprise addictive: Cinnamon Toast Crunch Mexican Hot Chocolate. Somehow the elements combine to a richer more complex chocolatey flavor that hits the spot.

Just think of me as a cicada: I may periodically emerge from the ground to scream things like "My Mochi ice cream in Birthday Cake flavor is somehow the best thing flavored like birthday cake, including many actual birthday cakes" before I disappear once again.

In total lack of news, DC cherry blossoms are lovely, and today was a lovely day to take them in.

Pleased to discover the janky individual-policy insurance covered an MMR booster with no copay.

What if you had corn-flavored popcorn? The corn corn is the corniest (if corn flavoring were corn): the kernels are covered with a salty-sweet-buttery-corny powder. Insanity or mad genius?

A friend brought chhurpi from Nepal: the world's hardest cheese. Too hard to chew if you're not a dog, so you suck and gnaw small cubes of it. For hours. It's mild and lightly smoky like a smoked gouda. I'm promptly addicted and bought more on Amazon. (It says it's 100% human-safe)

Sampling Kellogg's Donut Holes Frosted Flakes. They resemble neither in taste or texture. Not bad as a standalone, but disappointing as member of Frosted Flake family. Ain't grrrrreat.

This here is Mosscap, the robot in the Monk And Robot books by Becky Chambers. The books are joyful and touching and I much recommend them. #robots

Did you know that a pack rat was an actual critter rather than just a vivid metaphor? (I didn't).

Also known as a trade rat thanks to a habit of dropping what they're carrying already in place of the next thing that catches their attention.

Request perhaps fulfilled by two posts in a row on my feed - though the drowsy commuter hasn't wandered as widely as may have wished, sayeth the Muse.

Is this what SkyPeople do? Hit Like to ask me things. (Comment if there's burning questions down the list you don't think I'll get to).

Cereal that shouldn't exist: Cheerios veggie blends blueberry banana with spinach, carrot and sweet potato. Box rear has kid content, making it the boringest kids cereal ever. Taste as tame as it sounds. Kids won't be fooled, parents may feel virtuous finishing the box themselves. #TryThisItHurts

After a day of people being so vehement about the cutesy nomenclature reminiscent of mosquitos I was surprised to discover that the platform calls them "posts".

MS Word now has an AI thing. To disable: Options, General, Privacy Settings, uncheck "Optional Connected Experiences". (Other people's versions may involve Trust Settings). Don't feed the happy fun Skynet. #JustSayNoToAI
