They've been talking about the impending freezing rain for days and NWS issued a winter weather advisory this morning, so I finally looked up the 2013 ice storm.

1½ inches in the worst hit places. If that's my Standard of Worry (and it is), ⅒ is just an inconvenience. ☔

I did it. I'm sorry. 😝

I caved because I was in the middle of a conversation with CGPT and I didn't want to wait 5+ hours to finish.
People talk a lot about AI's impact on the environment, but I haven't heard anything about why it's healthier to only chat with them in moderation. That's why (besides being unwilling to pay $20/month) I'll stay on ChatGPT's free tier.

(Also won't buy credits for NightCafé or StarryAI.)

As you know, I've been getting farther & farther from the fence and into "The Pro-Palestine Front is Full of Psychos" territory.

Shit like this makes me glad that the UK has declared that they (or at least certain factions) are terrorists.

'Palestine Action activist struck officer with sledgehammer', court hears
Six Elbit Systems protesters caused "serious damage" to the Israel-based defence firm's UK site.

I don't usually accuse local news of overdramatizing things (that's the foray of the "talking heads", I think), but tonight was straight to Facepalmville.

Anchor: Coming up, [meteorologist] will tell you about the upcoming ice storm!

I don’t know who needs to be reminded of this, but if you have a Leo family member (primarily sun and rising signs), they need regular attention.

Kudos to #Reelz for introducing "Breaking the Magicians' Code" to a new generation (or two).

I'm not saying those specials are old...but anyone watching who's unfamiliar ought to know that the Masked Magician was 42 when he revealed his identity and he'll be 70 in June. 😎

FYI: “Capricornus” usually refers to the zodiacal constellation, and “Capricorn” usually refers to the astrological sign.

Capricorns would want you to get that right.

Some people need to learn "no surprises" MEANS "no surprises"!

Few are good at actually picking out gifts to be a surprise. Most use it as a way to hide the fact that they're giving you junk and delay the inevitable disappointment when you don't like it. 🙄

Happy Yule to you northern hemisphere folks and a happy Litha to the south!

Tomorrow's my mom's favorite day of the year: when the days start getting longer!

Must be random asshole day today.

Crossing back from getting the mail (blue dot) and the truck at the red dot laid on the horn.

If you can't see it in the preview, that's because they were on the NORTH SIDE OF THE BLOODY INTERSECTION!

So I did what anyone would do.

I've said it before, I'll say it again:

If you were hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein and hurting children, I don't care WHO you are, or what party you belong to.

If you hurt kids, you don't belong to ANY party except the pedo party.

And you belong in prison for life.
PERIOD.

It's my mom's birthday!

On her behalf, I'd like to say, "I'm not old, the world is!"

Our doctor recommended that my dad and I do something special for our birthdays because he'll be 75 and I'll be 40. 😁

(She's just a wonderful ball of light, hence the gif.)

So Trump is just giving away another $2.6 billion in taxpayer money for “bonuses” that was not appropriated for that purpose by our duly elected representatives in Congress, while we are $38 trillion in debt.

@raincitycor.bsky.social I wouldn't trust the Mirror as far as I could throw it. I bet they're as gossipy as Mirror UK!

I had a guy who is interested in trading for an Eevee card I have, and now it's starting to look like he's getting cold feet.

It's a good thing I don't know his girlfriend's name, or I would contact her and tell her he's backing out of her Christmas present, and let her take care of him. 😈

Bad news: the mystery loan is real.

Good news: they're content to take $5 a month until they verify Dad's income.

Good news: my laptop is passing a memory test.

Bad news: memory failure is the most frequent reason why computers randomly freeze.

I downgraded an actor I dislike from "Dirty Bastard" (using his initials) to...some lesser title a few months ago.

Couldn't remember what it was yesterday, so I came up with something else.

...that I can't remember today, so he's presently "Dubious Bro". 😆

I have the AI stuff in Opera GX and Brave disabled, so it doesn't bother me much. But if Firefox cripples their mobile version with AI, it's getting kicked to the curb and Brave becomes my primary.

(I haven't used FF on desktop in AGES, except once where it was required.)
