Today I discovered that paprika instead of cinnamon on hot rice pudding is actually pretty good.

Right now, there are thousands of people who dedicated years and decades of their lives of training and working towards this goal of their perfect dream job only get fired from it out of the blue. The bad karma in these actions is going come back and strike some day.

Good morning

It feels like someone perhaps maybe found a bad apple in a truckload of apples to feed the poor and decided to burn the truck down.

We have a sickness running through the house and the Bride was having trouble breathing laying down with a fever, so I brought her to the ER. Since she's going through treatment, they did a panel and the sickness that she and both kids have seems to be metapneumovirus.

My daughter refers to sloppy Joe's as poop sandwiches.

Wonder when we're going to have political officers in military units?

I think people should look back in history and remember what happened at Garrison Church at Potsdam in 1933 and the 2 decrees signed on that March day. Will history look back at this week and judge us in the future? Another history repeating itself?

#tbt I think Jimmy Carter was President when this was taken R.I.P.

The thing both blown up truck guys have in common? They were military and their personnel relationships tanked and speaking from experience, that soul trauma is no joke and can make the best of use make non logical decisions, sometimes for years.

It might not mean anything to my friends here, but today I'm happy to have seen season 2, episode 1 of Solo Leveling on Crunchyroll.

No one is happier than a pig that escaped and found the trash can.

The bride says to me, "Adenovirus causes pink eye", and something in my head clicked, I really haven't seen much pink eye in the military because we were vaccinated against adenovirus. How long does that stuff work anyways?

Oh. You have my attention.

As someone who's spouse is going through chemotherapy and has had common chemo claims denied that made the oncologist say in front of us, "what the hell?" I get how someone could get this personally angry at an insurance company.

20 years ago, it was the night before Thanksgiving and I was about to meet this penpal who I had been exchanging letters with for the past 6 months. She, showing her vast lack of technology knowledge, had scanned a Polaroid on her dad's full sized scanner at the worst resolution possible.

My prediction, the first intelligent thing on Mars will be a Gigafactory packed into Elon's Starships, developed and tested here on an Earth factory floor and ran by the X-AI. In essence, a von Neumann machine. Fan of it happening but not the politics involved.

It looks like I'm over here in Blue Sky land too. Little about myself, live on a small farm in the PNW with a wife, kids, goats, chickens, pigs, ducks, a turkey and a pig, plus random dogs and cats.
