  I think there's a new crow's nest outside my office window. All day, I keep hearing crows make those gentle "mewp" sounds back and forth, before flying off and going CAW CAW CAW CAW CAW

  It's chilly and damp today. Yay 🎉

  Well, I've done it again: i put something on the big screen. Then paused that for something on the medium screen. Then paused that for something on the small screen. And now I'm tooting.

  RE: https://omfg.town/@dansinker/117429969659663746 Again, I will mention: There is no more Twitter, there is only X. Twitter died years ago and none of it was yours.

  Also, every time I see someone semi-famous "return to X", their replies are just a stream of notice-me-senpai. I guess that's cheerful for them? 😅

  My pond-enjoying raccoon friend is really up early and feeling bold tonight i guess 🦝

  Speaking of the pond, it's looking pretty good since April. I kinda hope the raccoon doesn't dismantle it again

  Dang it: I'm still playing through CONTROL Resonant but I think I might need the new Hellraiser: Revival game for spooky times

  Another day wherein I forgot I set "Bah Wheep Graaaaagnah Wheep Ni Ni Bong" by MusicSavage as my phone's ringtone https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crxHyLcyLBM

  I kind of wish that, after big in-person work travel events, they'd do a survey like "did you get sick? how many days were you sick? did you take PTO to recover?" and then figure those health impact and work-loss metrics into the cost of the next event.

  TIL the term "butt rock" - and, not having heard it before, it meant exactly what I guessed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4QeCs7uygk

  @Daojoan@mastodon.social I've seen how some devs talk to claude. No one's sharing those transcripts :blobsweats:

  Does anyone remember a streaming radio station called "Signal Decay" from Live365 back in the early-to-mid-2000s? Played a lot of EBM, synthpop, futurepop. Every now and then I go looking for any details on it, but seems like bitrot ate everything

  I have a Leatherman tool. I didn't realize there's an actual real "Tim Leatherman" behind it. I guess I just thought it was, like, a tool for uh leather men? https://www.powells.com/book/the-leatherman-book-9798217298921

  Printed a little charging dock for my Anbernic RG35XXSP, pretty neat. Also has a micro-HDMI to HDMI adapter built-in, in case I ever feel masochistic enough to try using it as a console. #3dprinting #anbernic #retro #gamedad https://www.printables.com/model/1412822-anbernic-rg35xxsp-dock-usb-c-hdmi/

  So, I saw this commercial where this woman said "my mother died of heart disease at 69" and my immediate response was "nice"

  RE: https://mstdn.ca/@dbattistella/116927732095763924 My therapist noted that my anxiety & grief scores were up, after an assessment check-in this week. This sounds a lot like our discussion

  Had a dream that I took apart some gadget and then forgot what screws went where when I tried to reassemble it 😱

  Saw someone blog that they really dislike grab-bag or "weeknotes" style blog posts, which kinda makes me want to throw together a public feed aggregator just for weeknotes posts from folks :thinkspin:

  me: "Huh, I'm getting very cranky." my office: *is 90ºF / 32ºC* me: "I wonder what's up?" my water bottle: *is full of undrunk ice water* me: "I guess I'll never know. Grr."

  A thing I'm working at work got posted to Product Hunt. Now my inbox is filling up with emails with subject line "Quick thought on {product name}" from randos - and usually the quick thought is "have you thought about using my product?" :blobsweats:

  Ugh. We adopted Minnaloushe about 2 1/2 months ago. He's been settling well, though we can tell he's had some trauma at some point. Not aggressive, but hair trigger to throw paws if he gets his boundaries disrespected. Miss Biscuits and Cosmo have mostly respected this, though they both keep making overtures to be friendly. Then, yesterday, he rather abruptly decided that Cosmo needed his ass kicked. Claws out, blood drawn, won't stop stalking him. Cosmo's terrif...
