Long deep exasperated sigh-er.
I'd say he has a humiliation kink, but disabling quote tweets and complaining about it sure seems like he just doesn't want to learn.
The nuclear block just removes dealing with nonsense like people who don't recall that BEETHOVEN WAS DEAF. Or pick any number of other similar artists.

Not linking to the (design?) group "gaping void" but this has to be one of the dumbest things I've ever seen. "Are you sure that graveyard isn't also full of people who started early or on time?"

This is the same cat who spent a week smushed behind a toilet hiding from everyone.

Going to have the go with the Dinosaur Book (Operating Systems Concepts by Silberchatz, Galvin, and Gagne). Every edition has dinosaurs on the cover, but the 10th is going hard.

This doesn't make it too far outside of Dayton but Brucken's Dusseldorf Mustard (horseradish mustard) is a damn delight. I'm really dropping the ball on not adding chow chow or piccalilli on bratwurst along with it...

We went to see Thievery Corporation play at Bogart's and they were great. Highly recommend.
Probably the first concert we've been to in, uh, about 20 years (sigh, kids). Interesting audience: from college kids up to old people like us.

This is a deeply stupid headline. My Volvo V60 has better gas mileage than the SUV version (the XC 60). Station wagons are lighter, safer, and more useful than a SUV.
The V60 has better carrying capacity than a Rivian, cybertruck, or most pickup trucks I see around town.
Sean Duffy is an idiot.

@americanfietser.bsky.social : Once again biked to the grocery store, picked up most of Thanksgiving dinner, and biked back. The only time drivers aren't annoyed is when you've got a child carrier, otherwise you're a nuisance to them (locally).
In the past, I've put dinner for 14 in the carrier.

Progress with the new cat: she is still terrified of the house, but can deal with the bathroom door being open all the time. She doesn't try to hide behind the toilet anymore, but will race to sit next to it if anyone walks in.

With all the pathetic compensation ICE agents do with their "tactical" shit, surely the UK's own horrific version of ICE wouldn't engage in such... Oh, I'm being told they're *massive* Nazis.

I don't know the full history of our new cat, but she was a stray someone took in, and then after about a year gave to the Humane Society. "Timid" is an understatement. Absolutely terrified of everything is more apt. The first two days she spent smashed behind the toilet and the wall.

It is time to carve some pumpkins. And not instigate a forest or house fire.

The Carv app/sensors are interesting, moderately useful (no replacement for professional instruction) but I get the distinct feeling they're going out of business given the number of errors in their website and app. This one was great:
