In Segway's defense, small electric mobility devices *have* been a game changer for cities.

It just turned out that a precondition for *a lot* of people was not looking like a total goober while riding one.

My job is challenging but getting these girls up, dressed, fed, warmly attired, out the door and into class is by far the most difficult part of my day. 😆

There are plenty and they’re all so much better than me.
I signed up for a month of PlayStation Plus so I can play a 7-year-old Call of Duty game online. There’s probably still some people in there, right?

I hope you all felt the zen and have a peaceful evening.

The Timberwolves won and Cities 97 looped the same 3 seconds of a song for 2 hours. It’s a good night.

I was there when it stopped. Thank you for calling out the Cities 97 loop, @staciaann.bsky.social.

Not sure how the #Timberwolves can play neck and neck with OKC (20–1) and then struggle against the Pelicans (3–18). This team is fascinating!

I turned on my PlayStation 4 and I haven’t logged into it since, get this, 2018. One day all my PlayStation friends and I logged off and didn’t return.

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.
