Now I want a grilled cheese.
I had one. with bacon. it was good. it could be great, but it's Five Guys, so they use inside out hamburger buns. It's kind of like having crust all over the sandwich. Which is fine, but the gooey inner bit is the BEST.
But if the world doesn't end, I'm gonna need a note.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
But the article, while not saying so explicitly, seems to be hinting that black implies poor/uneducated.
Yeah, sentences like this:
Studies and mounting anecdotal evidence now suggest that blacks, even some of those at the lower end of the economic scale, are making significant gains.
seem to imply that race is a barrier to internet access even if you're rich and live in a neighborhood with broadband.

I'm just almost crazy enough to order these for my backyard! Quick, somebody talk me out of it!

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."

Numerous studies have shown animated light-up alligators to be very dangerous. Especially to other, smaller animated light-up animals.
On the other hand: SO AWESOME!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't know enough about black America to know if/why, when adjusted for income and education, internet usage would be less.
Most everyone I know is on the internet. The one guy who, a year ago, said "I don't have e-mail" has been hooked up. But I'm a big city girl, who hangs out with people who might as well have finished university (I can't think of a simple way to put that) if they haven't, and socialises a lot on the 'net.
So what do I know?
I'm fascinated by the stat that English-speaking Hispanics are online more than non-Hispanic blacks or whites. I wonder about the racial breakdown there.
Modern Bachelor Pads. I want there to be a cliché of a bachelorette pad. I wonder what it would look like.
Can't decide what to do for lunch. I brought lunch with, but I still want my time. Maybe sleep again.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Theo, I think it's your duty to buy those. The neighborhood has been classed way up lately, and classy is BORING.

Coding and Sleeping
The light up alligator makes me think about my ex-boss's (from two different jobs) new company, Animated Lighting.
They have some cool stuff, but it doesn't come cheap.
