Spent about an hour underwater today and it felt great! The water was around 83 degrees. Saw a huge stingray, several turtles, walleye, a spotted moray, and a huge lobster.

Just saw a dude wearing a shirt that said "wokeness breeds weakness". If he really understood the term, he'd know that he thinks being informed and educated is a weakness.

Woke up this morning and saw that my first Chrome extension has been published! I have been using it locally for a while now and figured I'd submit it for everyone else to use.
