Wow Jesse. That’s way more with it than I am. Yesterday I had soylent for lunch, with some pirate booty. And then for dinner reheated French fries and Brussels sprouts from my takeout the night before. And then a bowl of cereal for dessert. ...this is why having children always seemed scary to me. I can’t feed myself, how could I feed a child healthily?

Chris, I was able to use my card at my corner store, so I agree. It is something with Instacart. Unfortunately, I mostly need Instacart!

Yeah, that's terrible. Instacart is pretty important for a lot of people! And I can't imagine they accept cash.

I mean, that seems like a pretty healthy day for an adult or a child, so I think you're OK!

I am heavily reliant on DoorDash to feed myself this week. I do not expect to prosper with the fall of civilization. Or with any glitches with epayments.

Is it wrong that I hope Adam Schiff has a degree from Law & Order as well? He has to have checked it out, right? I guess it wouldn't really make a difference for general population of insurrectionists, but still. I'm reading his statement thing right now, good stuff.

I will never get over there being a real elected official named Adam Schiff.

Every time I see his name

Yes. Though I do wonder if he got any voting bump based ont hat...

Work cackling: you know what happens when I wake up too early and a poorly-scheduled/thought out documentation request is casually sent to me in Slack? I get spiteful, write up an entire "this is how documentation will be planned and requested for 2021" document and give the release manager a heads-up, which leads to them gleefully adding me to the weekly PM meeting.

The moral: do not piss off a technical writer who has run content planning PM thunderdomes before, it will go poorly for you.

I would bet he did, name recognition is a big advantage. I know I took a long time to figure out why his name was familiar - you know how it is with Congresscritters, especially Reps, there are so many of them that whenever a name seems vaguely familiar I have to think "Why do I know that name, are they evil?" so I have to look them up and looking him up never got me to Law & Order until Jesse made a comment about it and the light bulb went on. I'm not in his district but I bet plenty of people like me are. I"m glad he has turned out to be someone I actually like!

::Picturing the governess glare that goes with Atropa's post::

I feel like a personification of the Gritty "Fuck around and find out" meme. I'm not even really mad (that was yesterday), I'm cackling in menacing glee.
