These days when society trends toward hate and bigotry, I rebel and practice radical kindness. You're all beautiful, awesome people and the world is 1000% better that you're in it. Carl Sagan said "The cosmos is within us. We are made of star-stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself."
Oof. I've let my beard grow a bit this past week and it's already hit that point where I'm questioning just letting it grow more as shaving it all now is going to be a bit of a project.

The snow that fell over 2 weeks ago is finally attempting to melt, but it has nowhere to go as everything is still covered in sheets of ice.

If understanding the words to what is being sung were a prerequisite for enjoyment, I would not have a music project with 5 EP's and support from all over the world.

Wife ordered a fondue from HF so we can have snacks for the game tonight. It's a snacking and noshing holiday. However, we didn't get it. They delivered to the wrong address. We got a full refund for it... and an hour later the person who actually got it hand-delivered it to our home. Score! 🏈

Going to scarf down a bit of Italian hoagie and then start this up. Come hang out in 15 minutes or so if you are so inclined and don't have anything better to do.
In about two hours, @ocho.bsky.social will have to deal with dinosaurs and giant apes.

QRS with a gif of your first gaming console.
I respect it, a lot of my friends had the NES, but my parents wanted me to have that same experience but more budget-friendly.

Went to take out trash and two cats, one a gorgeous himalayan that I can't fathom is a stray, both ran up to me. Maybe the deer told them I was giving out snacks? By the time I went back inside and came out again they were gone. What is it with nature loving me today?

When I came back from picking Little Ocho up from school all the deer were still there, so we cut up some apples for them. Here are the brave ones that came up out of the herd looking for snacks.

I've told our neighbors that we see a ton of wildlife, a ton for where we live, and I really don't think they believe us. Last night was a sight, though. A whole herd of 8-10 deer walked up our sidewalk to nibble at the ivy leaves growing on the tree ~20 feet from our door. Beautiful.

One of the neighbors that moved in recently is a young woman in her 20s. I went out to pick up dinner and saw that she *had left her door open to go take her dogs for a long walk*. It's 20℉ out there! It definitely triggered my dad protective and waste senses. 😬

So the event started, finally, and I'm already over it. Puzzles end up being too randomized, so solving takes a lot of luck, and if you fail you end up watching a lot of ads. More than anything, the event showed me what the app is about. Shame. I found the premise of "solitaire but with topics" fun.
Wife and I have been playing Word Solitaire Now on our cells, pretty addictive, but a whole event started for her and not me and I'm kinda jealous. I'm fully updated and everything, figured it's being rolled out to more hardcore players first - and she's pretty hardcore. But still. C'mon.

This cat, man. She loves playing so much, she's swatting and kicking and clawing all while her purring is at full volume. Never had a cat before - and I've had plenty - that just wanted so much to *play*. Last tuxedo we had was quite sweet and demure. Not Pogo, though. She's a trip.

Apparently when you say you like certain TV shows, movies, etc. that are widely panned, it tends to lead to people not trusting your judgement. That's fine. I'll keep liking and enjoying things and you can't stop me. I've heard it my whole life, I'm not bowing to popular opinion anytime soon.

Picking up my son yesterday, talking to another father about all the snow.
Father: We haven't had a snow like this in years.
Me: For sure.
F: It's on purpose, you know. They *made* this snow happen. They *wanted* us to be snowed in.
Me: Really?
F: Yup.
Me: Ahhhh.
