Our wings are not tired.

Trying to schedule watching things with other people can be so complex. Many things I want to watch, but have to wait for Brendon, or watch twice. Then I pick things that I think I will only enjoy, and then he comes through and starts watching too so I can't proceed! It's complicated.

I'm a moderator for a NYT readers group on FB and we have one very active member who goes on reporting binges. I've had nearly a dozen posts she has reported as hate speech or fake news the last couple days. None of which were either, but they did say negative things about Netanyahu or the IDF. I had to reach out to one of the Jewish moderators to see if I was being blind or if she had a point. I was assured that she is nuts and keep all the posts. I will delete a comment if they call her out by name for being an extremist, even though she is, because we don't allow personal attacks against members. If Donald, Joe, or Bibi join our group we will be in trouble!

I'm also torturing myself by reading all the menus for my upcoming cruise. I can stay keto without issue, but it makes me want to switch to vegetarian for all the risottos, pastas, and Indian options.

eta: see how retirement has not put me on the computer fewer hours, just doing stuff other than work

Maybe we'll watch Wonka tonight unless there's a lot of kinky naked sex with Chalamet and an Oompa Loompa.

Don't kinkshame the Oompa Loompas.

Laura it sounds like more fun than work though!

I am so sleepy today. I am also apparently incapable of dyeing my hair without getting dye everywhere even though I am wearing gloves. Sneaky dye.

Happy belated birthday, Tom!

Epic, good results~ma. And a hug.

JenP, happy to read it was a minor thing.

Atropa, that is such a lovely email.

Just finished a workweek at 120% capacity+that protest on Tuesday, so I'm kind of tired. But the trip ain't gonna plan itself.

Level of trust in government here: intelligence forces said there's no need to panic over an Iranian reaction. So naturally people started to pack go bags and think what they'll need. I'm too tired to re-pack a go bag now, but I'll probably buy a solar charger.

Never mind, it was local construction.

No, wait, it was an actual earthquake!
