I took an edible so that I had to time box editing a chapter in my book. I'm not sure yet if this was a good idea...

I'm crying trying to generate an image of gestures with AI. I didn't ask for a "jerking off with a smirk" but somehow that's what I got.

Higher ed finally got you? 😢 Admittedly you're a very active ghoul on and offline.

Ähm there's clanging sounds coming out of the cemetery at night 😳

I am LIVING for this Hocus Pocus weather.

Like just use fucking light sour cream and/or light mayo if you must but having normal chicken salad ain't the problem.

Convince me to not cook up a thing of turkey sausage, mix in chive cream cheese, and eat it with bagel chips

Going forward I'll only adopt ones based on an open standard. I found some that use the Matter protocol and are compatible with my speakers.

I really have come to love my automations so that my lights come on at sunset and I'm not crawling out of my work hole into a dark house.

The company that made my wifi switches decided to discontinue their cloud service. Can't program or control them anymore. Every single one is now just e-waste. 🚮

Literally this is consistently in the top three at all times. No wonder we're all stressed/tired constantly...

Ever have one of those days where you're filled with rage and can't quite pinpoint why?

Having some diphenhydramine as a treat 😌

Going to text my straight friends "Did you see that call? Ridiculous!" out of nowhere to see what they say.

Someone’s setting up for a wedding and reception right in the middle of the street around the corner. Even my cynical self can’t help but find that completely charming!

Yeah for sure. I think my brain goes into "yay social time!" as soon as the weekends arrive and Fridays are that weird space between.

Food and puppy snuggles shall fix this!

Weirdly I kind of hate Fridays. As a WFH employee at a super demanding company, I never have anything to do after work but I'm also too exhausted.

Listen. I got the cicada out of the building lobby the other day it's someone else's turn.

That feeling when you go to email someone who you know will immediately call you and you hope they don't but they probably will so you don't send the email
