Uh

Good morning?

Everyone?

Dogs staring at you intently and cats wandering around curiously, as seen from the vantage point of the toilet seat.

Was talking about Real Genius with a Gen-Z household member last night. This morning looking for a clip to share with them (girl’s gotta have her standards? maybe) and found this, which other old nerds may enjoy.

@jenniferplusplus I am a fan of collecting all the languages, but that’s because I am basically a crow at heart. Ooh this is shiny! So’s this! And that!

I absolutely do not think everybody needs to be like me. It’s impractical and possibly unhealthy.

Kids out at nearby school having fun but being loud enough that Bouncy Dog’s looking at me like “should I go take care of it?”

sweet jesus

With the quantity and density of infodump once I get rolling, at least I know I like my job.

Even if I do feel terrible for anybody within earshot.

Even the cat’s like “are you done yet?”

To be fair, “are you done yet” is the cat’s normal mode when people are talking.

@grmpyprogrammer I’m 5'6" and I cramp up between the seats waiting and the seats flying.

I don’t even want to imagine.

Thought I’d injured myself grievously but it’s just Cheeto dust, “Flamin’ Hot” variety.

@thegibson @lilithsaintcrow sorta like how Boehner quickly transitioned from flag-waving house leader to tut-tutting his disappointment in the new Republicans from the sidelines over a brandy snifter.

Too much carnage for pics already but @IamMrsGeek has once again cooked an amazing meal.

Telling the youths about how I started voting in 2000, for Nader, got blamed for destroying American democracy (even though I still don’t have a seat on the Supreme Court), but as a consequence I paid real close attention up and down ballot ever since.
