The aurora right above me

"taking pleasure in the little things" like tasty food or a comfy cartoon as if I'm a raggedy post-apocalyptic wastelander crouched in the corner of a ruined basement, obsessively reading tattered paperbacks salvaged from a bombed-out Barnes & Noble by the light of a grey sun

I stopped using tap water in my neti pot, because I was worried about that brain-eating amoeba. Now I only use bottled distilled or purified water, and I no longer worry about the brain-eating amoeba. Just about the brain-destroying microplastics.

New hotness on Threads is apparently talking trash about Bluesky, mostly from people whose business model includes being an "influencer" of some sort.
