Ah, cuisinart is not ours, so no. I hear you on the glass lids, I like to see what's going on.
You're right. He's evil. But you should see him naked. I mean really!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

-t, I can send you some backgrounds I use. Some astronomical ones, one from Yellowstone with a bison, one from the Griffith observatory, one from a trellis at the Huntington Library....
I like them myself, but I don't know if they would count as "fun."

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
The only time I got one of those anniversary gift choices, I got jewelry that I could sell. All I want from a company is cash and benefits.

Sure, I'll take those, dcp! Even if they are not "fun" for the purposes of this thing, they sound nice for my general use. I haven't had any luck finding anything appealing to my sense of fun-ness via google...
What I really want from my company is a raise that is higher than inflation, and not just every 5 years or whatever, but that is hardly an option. And I recently remembered that they used to match up to some percentage of our retirement withholding but they "temporarily" stopped matching a few years back and I don't think they are ever going to restart that will just kind of disappear and fade from memory and I'm kind of mad about it because that was a big selling point when I was hired that we were 100% vested in the matching funds after 3 years. Oh well.

Yeah that’s why I’m contemplating getting the AirPods even though I already have some and selling them

Too late for your "fun" Zoom meeting, but there's this ... and there are others.

Not too late, Toddson, the meeting isn't for another hour and a half! I have found a Sunnydale school library picture I like, but if you don't know that's what it is it isn't really "fun". Work fun is so stressful! How much of my actual interests am I comfortable with my coworkers knowing about? Not actually very much, to be honest.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
one of them took a look at my monitor and got it working. yay! now I can sit upright and actually see what's on the display.
Yay indeed. Visibility for the win!
My bean soup turned out really well. Dropping some leftover tomato paste into the pot turned out to be a really good addition.
The good news: doing remote work from another state is not out of the question at my job. The bad news: they have a list of states where one can do that, and Michigan is not on it. Nor is Illinois (or I'd just move to Chicago).
