There was a big Internet outage in lower Manhattan yesterday, caused by workers cutting through a data cable. My workplace is describing it as a "Force Majeure event".

Now I'm wondering if there ever was a superhero (or supervillain) team called Force Majeure, and why not?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Half of what makes it tough is parent stuff, so if you have any parent stuff, definitely make sure you are in a quiet room first! (This essay is not from the book.)

Ugh, my credit card has fraudulent charges. My bank is on top of it, which is great, but it's such a pain in the ass to have the card cancelled, wait for the new card to be sent, and then have a whole new credit card number to memorize.

That is so annoying.

I usually love when my meetings are canceled but sometimes I want the info and pinning someone down that a meeting allows for and canceling it means I have to keep sending annoyed emails. Do not like.

Also annoying!!

Argh also really annoying: booked a haircut a few weeks ago, stylist just canceled on me. Not the most important thing at all but once I really wanted to deal with and have done and was glad I’d managed to schedule.

I feel like Force Majeure would have to be a villain?? But totally should be.

But Major Force sounds so positive and strong!

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

I guess I could tie some onions to her belt.

Always a solid reference

You're half-right, Jesse! Major Force

Looks like the aliens have been here all X-Files style: [link]

I did not have credible whistleblowing about visitations by non-human intelligences on my 2023 bingo card, but sure, why not?

I just hope the aliens are hot. It's what we deserve.

The good news is, they are hot. The bad news is it's something they call "lava dick."
