I'm a very "stream of conciousness" poster.

Cautiously side-eyeing new follows who haven't posted yet.

I see you.
Two more episodes of S4 of Only Murders… down.

Made the comment that it is turning rather silly.

Rice pudding unlocked!

You know that meme of Kylo Ren yelling “MORE!” in Star Wars:The Last Jedi?

Imagine that was my wife wanting more raisins. The recipe calls for 1/4 cup. I think we ended up with 1 1/4 cups.

Not complaining. Just amused.

My parents sent me and my brother to this church camp in the late 70s. Hated every minute of it.

Watching Match Game on Buzzr and Ethel Merman is on it.

Wait... I've just been handed a note. That is actually George Zip. I regret the error.

Picked up the LOTR:Fellowship soundtrack this evening, as well as some sort of one-off “greatest hits” of Electric Light Orchestra that was only about half of the track listing from their actual “Greatest Hits Vol 1” CD. It had a couple of songs that I was missing, but couldn’t pass it up for $4.

Wasn’t particularly looking for it in my quest to replace my paperbacks with hardcovers, but found a first edition Fluke at the half-price books for $8.

Okay. This looks interesting. Need to see if this is a dexterity game.

It’s real simple, people. If you open a multi-pack of individually wrapped items, take the rest of them out of the pack, put them where you think they should go, and dispose of the box/wrapper.

Any company that is for pushing AI without also advocating for UBI does not care about people.

Patient: "Doctor, I'm depressed. Can you help?"

Dr. AI: "Go see Pagliacci the clown."

P: "But he's been dead for over 100 years!"

D: "No, I don't believe he is."

P: "I'm pretty sure. It's 2025."

D: "Pagliacci is who you need to see."

<makes note "patient depressed, delusional, and combative">
a few months ago I said "having generative AI handle absolutely anything with regards to healthcare is a nightmare and should be banned" and a bunch of people made fun of me and called me stupid. anyways,

Ordered my 30-year award this morning - a 24,000 mA power bank. Everything else offered were lesser versions of things I already had or weren’t relevant.

Also got to order a bonus company-branded item which is going to be outdated as soon as the merger goes through early next year.

Keeping Mom’s dog and found a tooth on the floor. Poor thing.

Had to get up to feed the dogs and misinterpreted one hint.

Oh well.

Reminder:

“I make jewelry” = “I have an Etsy shop and my supplies are drop-shipped and stored in a closet”

“I am a jeweler” = “I have several million dollars worth of inventory in a secure location”

Wonder what the penny discontinuation is going to do to Coinstar?

First thought: The carbonation makes the taste a bit more harsh. The orange is a little more pronounced, as opposed to the strawberry or banana.

All in all, I’ll stick with the real thing.

Grown-ass man just *had* to go out on the balcony of the building even though the doors are blocked because of structural issues. He found the one door that’s alarmed and pushed it open, setting off the alarm, saw me looking at him with my “you dumbass” face and slinked off.

Somewhere out there is the mate of the squeaky shoe that Judge Doom put in the dip. I hope they’re okay and find closure.

Give me "CURTAINS FOR ZOOSHA? K-SMOG AND BATBOY CAUGHT FLIPPING A GRUNT." but make it boardgames.
Just started Earthborne Rangers for the first time with Miss 12. We found Hy Pimpot at Topside Mast and glided to White Sky just after a Caustic Mulcher appeared, then gave away all our biscuits. Now we are on our way to Mount Nim to see who we can find to help. A good start to the #boardgame !

I remember seeing Who Framed Roger Rabbit and then trying to find the original recording of "Why Don't You Do Right". Was so disappointed to find that it wasn't a torch song.

Maybe it's the hormones talking, but I much prefer Amy Irving's version from the movie (She's since re-recorded it.)
