YouTube keeps suggesting Mr. Chimetime's food review videos to me (probably because I keep watching them).
Still from Mr. Chimetime video with the date and address of a food truck where he is buying the first 100 customers' food because he lost the challenge.

Hung up some nets in an otherwise nearly useless alcove (there is a radiator just out of frame so you can't put shelving) to get the plushie collection put away. Now I need to find a suitable piece of wall art to put up in the void.
Pink storage nets full of a wide variety of plushie toys mounted to walls.

I got some NEC 256KB DRAM chips in a box of commodore stuff I bought (C64, 1541, VIC-1520), and obviously they don't belong with that...

I can find spec sheets for them, anyone know of any applications?

Arrokoth looks like a budding yeast, and I want to build a cottage there.
This composite image of the primordial contact binary Kuiper Belt Object 2014 MU69 (nicknamed Ultima Thule) – featured on the cover of the May 17 issue of the journal Science – was compiled from data obtained by NASA's New Horizons spacecraft as it flew by the object on Jan. 1, 2019. The image combines enhanced color data (close to what the human eye would see) with detailed high-resolution panchromatic pictures.
