Slowly maintenance tasks in the house are being learned, including this toilet maintenance (that shouldn't really need to be done), re-caulking the tub, and replacing the kitchen faucet.
Successfully replaced the wax ring on the toilet and eliminated the issue that caused it to fail (toilet not mounted snug to the flange) without breaking a nail. Can I get a W.

![[Scene is a kitchen - a middle aged woman called JANET is boiling peas at the stove. A younger more colourfully dressed woman named LIZ approached her.]
JANET:
Ugh...
LIZ:
What's up?
JANET:
I am so bored of cooking peas!
LIZ:
Have you tried...
AI peas?
JANET:
AI peas?
LIZ:
They're peas with AI!
[Liz holds up to us a packet of peas labelled: Pea-i AI - Peas with AI].
LIZ:
Al-powered peas harness the potential of your peas
JANET:
What
LIZ [Now a voiceover as we cut to a whizzy technology diagram of peas all connected by meaningless dotted lines]
Why not take your peas to the next level with Al Peas' new Al tools to power your peas?
[Show a techno diagram of a pea with a label reading 'AI' pointing to a random zone in it]
LIZ:
Each pea has Al in a way we haven't quite worked out yet but it's fine
[Show Janet and Liz now in a Matrix-style world of peas]
LIZ:
With Al peas you can supercharge productivity and make AI work for your peas!
JANET:
What
LIZ:
Shut up
LIZ:
Our game-changing Pea-Al gives you the freedom to unlock the potential of the power of the future of your peas workflow
From opening the bag of peas
to boiling the peas
to eating the peas
To spending millions on adding Al to the peas and then having to work out what that even means.
JANET:
Is it really necessary to-
LIZ [Grabbing Janet by the collar]:
THE PEAS HAVE GOT AI, JANET
[Cut to an advert ending screen, with the bag of peas and the slogan:
AI PEAS: Just 'Peas' for god's sake buy the AI peas.

An actual good idea if they do the right thing and hire people who are figuring out how to make it better, but the "Applied AI" isn't really pointing in the right direction.
Kind of hate how AI has become a buzzword for LLMs which is probably the weakest part of AI even if it does new things.

Before we get back to my man Odysseus' tale, we're brought to you today by Audible. We already know you are a fan of epic stories, why not get one free epic every month.
As his work would have been orally composed rather than written, I think it's more accurate to consider Homer an early sort of podcaster

Scoping out some of the game stores in Columbus today since we find ourselves here multiple times a year. So far nothing as good as my favorite home store, but one that's got potential at least.
One did seem to be running no less than two TCG tournaments this Saturday afternoon, overwhelming.

Wondering where my order is, I ordered it a couple weeks ago, and looked at the tracking. Oh.
(I paid $130, with shipping)
Suddenly hoping I fail to win any other eBay Canada auctions.
Hilariously, I got this email it turns out, but dismissed it because it looked like a phishing scam.
