Up almost 45 minutes before noticing that the shirt I chose to wear still had the tag from purchase.

I trained myself out of fiddling around too much with Apple hardware, so a stable useful little box that I can install services on and know I won’t destroy? Very interesting to me.
(Pi? Small-form PC? I will habitually reinstall Linux on it every month and / or unplug it to relocate get stuck pondering the perfect placement and forget about it in six weeks)

Kitty Jack threw up today lots of times. Lost track somewhere around seven or eight. He’s also uninterested in food or water.
Could be relatively minor, but I was worried enough that @IamMrsGeek called nearby vet and got us a same-day appointment.

Them: “It’s – different.”
Me: “That’s a printable word for it.”
No context, provided to you as an additional option for calling out excessively softened verbiage.

course any time I think about “printable” words, brain immediately launches two separate tangents: Unicode character sets (“can I print this word?”) and Linux printer drivers (“can I print this word?”)

Canvasser (AFL-CIO, on behalf of Democrat party): “I’m here to –”
Me: “Already voted, by mail, for Harris.”
Canvasser: “Oh. Nice? Can I ask why you voted for Harris in this election?”
Me: “Basically, I like the idea of continuing to have elections.”
Canvasser: “yeah me too”
