As dumb as that is, I miss the days where the Next Big Thing actually did something as earth-shattering as "move a person around slightly faster than they could walk themselves."

Now it's "the NBT is an update to the predictive text your flip-phone used to have, only it's planet-killing."

So far this morning my wife's cat has pooped in the sink and stolen an extra half a can of food. Even by his standards of being a jerk, this is a blistering pace, and I'm excited to see what he has in store for us once food and guests make for a proper chance at mischief.

This #buyastrangerabook day offer from @dustystacks.bsky.social is still up for grabs!
