I just went ahead and spoiled myself for everything. It's reasonably easy to work Boxed Set because I'm invested enough in the shows to know when it's on and when to avoid. Like when there were suddenly a hundred messages in there tonight. I knew I hadn't watched yet, so I remembered not to go in.
But with the bucket threads, those are all Tivo shows, so I never remember what's on when until I'm in the thread and already spoiled. So I gave up. But I guess if I'm not invested enough to remember when they're coming on, I'm not invested enough to care if I'm spoiled? Maybe? I dunno.
I've been trying to use them deliberately. But I dunno.
Anyone still up? Vectorworks is boring.
Hey, ND. I should probably spend more time with VectorWorks, but instead I just figured out how to get photos from my new camera to the computer.
I don't even have near the most recent version, I'm still running VectorWorks 11.0.1, but it does the job. I just so rarely need to really draft big systems any more.
That's the version I have. What are they up to now?
I think 12 or 12.5. I'm not certain.
Timelies!
I'm not going near the "moral abortions" site, because it would make my head explode, between the outrage at the hypocrisy and the empathy for women who have to make horrible decisions.
At least not this early in the morning, anyway.
Eek. Just noticed a ton of helicopters overhead, and now the news informs me there's a big fire at a high-rise down the way.
Ick, fire. I'm getting a bit tired of the smell of smoke in the morning. Our Phase III water restrictions start this week too. Watering once a week for 4 hours. Come on tropics! Do your water making thing!
Cripes, I should not be watching the news this morning.
Five high school students shot on a CTA bus last night - one is dead. His dad was a police officer and his mom a firefighter. I don't know why that makes it seem so much worse.
Also, it appears the motherfucking dog fighters are active again. My neighborhood used to have a horrible problem with people stealing dogs from yards or tied up outside shops and stuff - using them as fodder, basically, for training pitts to kill. The police really cracked down, and it's been quiet the last year or so. But apparently it's on again. Fuckers, fuckers, fuckers. It's just sickening.
