I was heading to meet a friend for lunch when an older model truck that has seen better days had “justice for men” spray painted on it. Sure.

Watching the 1930 film The Divorcee (based off of Ursula Parrott's 1929 novel, Ex-wife). While the term "gaslighting" was coined in 1944, I'm watching Ted gaslight his wife Jerry over her discovery of his affair. Ted literally said, "It didn't mean anything." Not much has changed in 96 years!

Mr. Lisa and I are going to be in (mainly) Eastern Europe for two weeks at the end of March. I need to learn how to say "Hello" and "Thank You" in German, Slovak, Hungarian, Czech, and Croatian. HELLO MANGO LANGUAGES! (Brought to you by my local library.)

Apologies in correcting you, and being that person, but it is widely considered that the Scots invented curling, with evidence of curling stones from the early 16th c.

How is Canada in fourth place? They invented curling!

I do want to shout-out my fellow sociologists, who have collectively created a discipline so woke that not a single one of our introductory textbooks can make it past Florida's censors.

Great work everyone.

This is the first weekend in months I didn't need to set an alarm, have an appointment, or be somewhere. Thursday & I lazed abt until 8:30, she did her thing, and now I'm drinking coffee and eating Pop Tarts while I work on some pleasure projects. (Unfortunately, Mr. Lisa is on call this weekend. 😔)

I will say this about being a #NFFC fan: at least we are not West Ham.

The Telegraph's title of this article is, "Is ‘fairy smut’ dumbing down literature?." The URL though? That's this: www.telegraph.co.uk/art/artists/....

So, per the Telegraph, if you read romantasy, you're a dum dum. I'm sure millions of readers will love that.

Mr. Lisa & I are chill about February 14. No flowers, no cards, no presents (typically). We usually go out to a nice dinner (not on the day itself because we are not crazy). I decided this year we're doing cold plunge with sauna and then on to fancy steak dinner. I am much excited by this prospect.

Ah, another beautiful day to exercise free will by not watching ‘Melania.’

"People are assholes" news: a well known writer summit accepted my pitch. I was asked to read/sign a contract. Many paragraphs on the owner of the summit would financially benefit; nothing about paying presenters. I asked and said if it is "for exposure," I'm out. Haven't heard back.

You can get the final Internet Archive crawl (from February 2) here: web.archive.org/web/20260202...

Since each link is linked to a IA page, the data is stil intract; it just won't be updated.

(Interestingly, it's been indexed by IA nearly everyday since 2021.)

Oh! This is one of those times I get to remind everyone who knows what this is, *especially* those of us who can quote the bit, to schedule your colonoscopy and get your shingles shot, if you haven't already.

People can dunk on the idea of 15 Minute Cities all they want, but today I needed a power tool that was $200 online and said to myself "F that, I bet the Capitol Hill Tool Library has one" and sure enough it did and I can mosey on over there and borrow it for $5 😂 I'm not giving that up
