Obviously I'm not just tossing tonic in 'em. Any suggestions are welcome.
If you have more of a floral-forward gin, like Hendricks, a gin fizz is nice.
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet?

I dislike gin, so I have nothing to offer here.

I was making my own lime cordial for a while there because of all the gimlet discussion here back when. Gin spritz, Sophia? Ooh, you could try that True Lime stuff - it’s so good in Diet Coke, might be good with gin

Now, where can I get True Lime that isn’t Amazon? Because I suddenly feel like I should be sprinkling some on or in everything I consume

In bizarre work news - our head of IT is leaving and the department is going to report to my grand boss?? WTF? I mean, IT used to be under HR so I guess having it run by Supply Chain isn’t much weirder than that, but it’s still pretty weird

In bizarre work news
That is odd, and seems stop-gap?
Also, I can get TurLime at the grocery store (I haven't looked at Aldi or Lidl, but at, like, Harris Teeter.)
