I really want to smash my Fire TV and get a dumb one. All I need is a big monitor. I don't use any of the "smart" features, and every time I turn it on, it goes back to the Fire TV home screen.
I wonder if that dude is going to drive around Kenmore with his windows down, blasting bagpipe music. I'll chip in for gas money.
Tomorrow we will Stand Up for Science in Buffalo! Saturday, 1PM, Niagara Square! I’ll highlight speakers throughout the day, starting with Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz! Bring your friends! Bonus picture of @markpoloncarz.bsky.social from last year’s rally!

I promise I will
I quickly read "the black widow that over looks the patio" and was rethinking visiting this summer. Glad to hear I probably won't die when I do stop by.
I'm excited to share that later this month I'll be starting a new role as a Staff Software Engineer focused on large-scale modernization. I'll be working on software that supports how government serves people - tackling complex problems at scale.
Grateful for the opportunity & ready to get to work!
This whole conversation is why I only like going to shows where I have a reserved seat. 👴
I'm so sick of watching concerts through the phone screen of the person in front of me.
I have fireworks in the basement, waiting for the news.
I can't wait to pour that first cup of coffee and sit on my front porch again. Hope I don't have to wait much longer - maybe another 4-6 weeks.
Big congrats!!! 🎉👏
Trump's economy is crushing it: 5.8% of working individuals (9.3 million of us) work multiple jobs to make ends meet – the highest number ever recorded since 1999. Almost half a million have 2 *full time* jobs. Are we great yet?
My father texted me yesterday, (fake) concerned (he just wanted to reiterate that Mexico is "dangerous").
We've been home from Cancun for a month now.
So if these companies who passed along tariffs to their customers get refunds, how do we, the customers who ultimately paid the tariffs, get our refund?
ah, good point!
I prefer the darker background, but you should offer both if someone asks for your logo and let them choose what works best for the specific use. I also think your white background shouldn't have a black logo, but that brown/maroon color. Of course, black & white options, too, for when needed. 🔥
Similar problem with easy access to publishing on the Internet, no? Early internet days, it was hard to share ideas. Now everyone with a Facebook account is sharing their conspiracy theories.
Just told my Canadian buddy, "at least trump isn't your country's leader."
I mean, Canada has a far better national anthem. And Tim Hortons coffee (which was good at one time; hit or miss lately)
As an American almost living north of Canada, I don't know who I want to win this game but I do want OT
I plan on still teaching, and that other thing discussed in discord. That should keep me busy enough
Today just reaffirms I'd do just fine being retired. With today off from day-job, I went to brunch with my daughter and got some things done around the house (new blinds hung, stuff put away, rear wiper replaced).
Holding my local elected officials accountable. They think NY open meetings law doesn't apply to them.
Clearly you're not terrified enough of party balloons.
I think I'm going to buy some plants today, to make me think spring is around the corner.
In 2024, my buddy died the day before Kenmore Porchfest. And I saw him EVERYWHERE that day. Other friends did, too. It really messed me up.
"We just need to get through this week"
I repeat to myself, until I die.
I was just going to say the same thing.
Tell him to come to my house / respond to my text after he's fixed your situation.
