You are not like me.

It wasn’t me who destroyed the new kitten toys, it was just coincidence the pulled apart twine and the little bell inside were in my bed.

I had to buy a new wok because I put my old one in the oven to dry off, forgot, and Nikki preheated the oven two days later.

I lost 40 years of seasoning.

I’ve had the new one for three weeks and have been putting off using it in case it’s crap and I will be sulky all day.

The U.S. Department of Transportation brought to D.C. an automated bus to showcase its work on self-driving vehicles, taking officials from around the country on a ride.

One of those trips was interrupted when the bus got rear-ended by a Tesla.
Officials showed off a robo-bus in D.C. It got hit by a Tesla driver.

Once again: You don’t actually like Gavin Newsom. You like his social media team, because you’re too online. The actual guy is terrible.
And no, Gavin Newsom’s *social media team* being lil sassy stinkers online while he lets Ben Shapiro dog walk him on his own podcast is NOT the degree of cold-blooded ferocity against MAGA rapists and murderers that I’m looking for.

I don’t think Microsoft has realised how feral some of us have gotten during work from home and they’re not prepared for the return to work consequences.

OK I think I have C# @standard.site lexicons working, and testing. Debating if I want to do the hidden away subscription class as well.

Testing was fun, oh, leaflet they say, wait, @leaflet.pub records aren't compatible yet.

Damnit, now I need to do leaflet.pub definitions too.

Men only want four things, and it's disgusting

* A Theragun personal massager,
* Drinking Dom Perignon in Cindy McCain’s suite at a U2 concert
* Being guided through a psychedelic experience on MDMA and
* Being taken to a Taylor Swift concert.

I wonder if YouTube is in the live streaming safe list because that could be funny for testing.
