Former tech journalist of 20+ years - still dealing with that trauma in therapy, here now for the shitposts and wry observations on life, mostly NSFW. Definitely not for minors, of interest to miners, or relevant to mynahs either. Dare to be stupid.

When we adopted our cat Beau, he came with a diagnosis of FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus). The vet advised us to watch for secondary infections, especially respiratory, eye and ear problems, and encouraged us to give him a stress free environment. He's very healthy, I'm happy to say.

Whenever I see this floppy ragdoll boi lying on his back, belly and paws raised, I feel like he's definitely living a stress-free life.

One thing hadn't occurred to me, wearing a continuous glucose monitor for the past year: It junks up my phone's Bluetooth settings with an additional device profile every 10 days. These profiles don't self-delete. I suppose there's no harm in it piling up like this, but what a mess. No easy way to mass delete, either - gotta tap each "i" button, "Forget This Device," then "Forget Device" again.

Here's a picture of Beau loving on his catnip bag. #ragdoll #catsofMastodon #caturday
What broke me yesterday was asking a coworker for some help and being told, "Nah, I'm just trying to take it easy today."

Them: Describe yourself in three words

Me:

Silver, Blush, Citrus, and Indigo? Give us the MacBook Neo in a finish we actually want, you cowards!

Narcissistic triangulation is some fucking bullshit.

Just remembered that when Jared Leto was doing ads for Gucci fragrances, I'd cut them out of magazines and tape them up in places my (young adult) kids would find them. They'd go to the open up the fridge and

LETO

swing open the bathroom cabinet and

LETO

go for a trash bag in the kitchen closet and

LETO

I think they moved out about a year later. Coincidence? You be the judge.

Reading about the Renault Twingo E-Tech, an EV not available in the US, and

I'm really enjoying Starfleet Academy but refuse to accept it as canon until Jeffrey Combs makes a guest appearance.
