Apparently YT has figured out how to see people using uBlock Origin Lite and block them. Guess I don't watch videos anymore.

Trying some new things to get/stay organized. Maybe it'll help with those "what was it I wanted to do" moments.

Listening to a mother robin complaining loudly to have discovered the nest she built, laid eggs in, and hatched those eggs, in fact is right outside of a cat's favorite window to sun themselves daily.

I made a thing. And I used a thing to make the thing. And I learned about things, and things too. Now I'll talk about things. Oh, and also those things.

New fone, who dis? Or, here we go again.

A movie you’ve watched more than six times with only a gif.

Just a LITTLE bit longer and the sun will dip below the neighbor’s roof line.

Getting late. Not tired. Hand isn’t aching but I’m not pushing it. Oh yeah, the left started feeling “left” out and now it’s hurting worse than the right. Yay. Laundry just went in, everyone else is in bed or close … Continue reading →

Hey, I live. Most of me anyway. Some parts more than others. Also I've got some ideas and want input, so read on and tell me something good. Oh, that's a quote I should use...

So for today only, apparently, Bluesky will let you make a post with two hundred ninety-nine characters instead of the normal limit. Honestly I’m not sure why a small number would be preferred since we’re not sending SMS messages as status updates, but rejoice and embrace the new joy of more text a
