Yeah, I got up, looked at the internet, and decided to just play Powerwash for a while.
I think I have successfully deferred both jury duty summons.
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Uh wow, my 2020 forrester does not have a heated steering wheel! It does have heated seats though, so I appreciate that.

Thrive to spite them
So I guess people are expecting the Snowpocalypse. It's been really busy. Everyone is buying bread.
Right now it is supposed to start snowing mid afternoon Friday and into the night and then freezing rain etc on Saturday. No word on if schools are closed. I have to talk to the manager tomorrow about not being here on Friday and if I'll get a point. It's my fault for getting so many but I'm also not going to let myself get trapped at the store because of snow.
Got Penny's test results. She has good liver and kidney function. Really high white blood count (which is not surprising) and on the verge of hyperthyroidism. So in a month she'll get tested again for that.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
FYI as I find you all bluesky, I am unfollowing you on other platforms so I can keep straight who I am still looking for.
Fb for the moment is only going to be replies and possibly posts on group pages like buy nothing and lost pets.
IG will be replies and knitting things.

bluesky is really the only social media I'm on anymore. Well, sometimes, LinkedIn, but that's a different thing.

I'm on bsky, but under my fannish identity. I don't want to have two accounts, so I'm happy to follow people as long as 1) you're prepared for my unhinged fannish content and 2) you don't connect the two identities. If you know who I am, feel free to friend me. If you don't know the name, you can email me at my profile address.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I’m in the area all of the wind terrorizing LA is coming from and we are still quite windy. Power has been off for an hour and I wished I’d charged devices but will be fine.
Keeping all of the weather hostilities across the country in mind and I hope everyone stays safe. If you need to evacuate for fire, please do it quickly and safely.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I joined bsky, but don't use it.

I unfollowed all but a few critical groups on FB. The neighborhood page and the buy nothing group are both really hard to think of a replacement for so for now, I guess I’m a bit stuck. There’s a handful of individuals too that I’m holding on to but expect to go down to bare minimum for now.
I’m enjoying Bluesky and can be found there for now. I do like that you can curate different feeds for different purposes. I’m winnowing down the politics content so as not to lose my gourd.
