And to add to the WTF, that’s actually a song about two people trying to cheat on each other, but accidentally hooking up instead 😂

Not yet at least, as it’s year 3 of the PE firm’s supposed 4-5 year plan. I do know that their legacy customers have been churning in droves, their innovation, and product development slowed dramatically, most competent staff left & their competitors have taken full advantage of their many fumbles.

While EA’s PE acquisition is the latest in the saga, I got to experience PE shenanigans at my last org. The result from that endeavor alone was (at last count) 6 companies acquired and shuttered, 7 products sunset, and thousands of paying customers left to die on the vine along with all their work!

My perspective is that of a consumer/end user, and the users almost always get screwed in these situations.

PE firms are much more akin to flippers vs. builders, as their primary goal is to extract as much value for their investors before they sell and then move on to their next conquest.

The big 40 (weeks).
Ransom did lots of water fetch, lots of beating up the herding ball, and lots of running around the property off leash. Also took a ride on his first non-inflatable boat.

Just what we need in 2025, fucking cazadors….

IMHO being too high to leave home is really the only viable reason for using DoorDash, Uber Eats, etc.

Welcome to the club unfortunately, as I also have EDS. If you’re not already doing so, I’d highly recommend beginning resistance/strength training, especially to strengthen stabilizing muscles. I’d also highly recommending identifying and reducing foods that might introduce unnecessary inflammation.

A few more photos of Ransom’s longest hike. 11 miles total, stopped at 2 dog-friendly pubs, the waterfront, a park, and explored some new forest paths.

Cuticle clipper too, especially if you’re in the desert
