I cannot deal with the stress of finding the right "place" so I turn mine into refrigerator magnets.

Hearing a high pitched whine this morning and thought I was going insane. Turned out to be an old atomic clock alarm going off tg.

Diamond lathe screwed over attic opening on my roof to keep varmints out, hopefully. Eaves need paint. Added to list.

Did some raccoon opsec. She lifted up a corner, hopefully to get out or in a failed attempt to enter. I guess I'll find out one way or another if she's trapped.

I assume it's a female looking to have her litter in my warm attic since that would be the worst case scenario.

Top: Rachel Ray cat chowder box Bottom: OG Inaba cat chowder

My Walmart down to 1 box of Inaba Churu Chowder. But I did find a couple boxes of this Rachel Ray stuff that looks similar. Also marked down to $8, $2<than Inaba. Grabbed them and about 2doz loose containers @ 75¢. If they never re-stock, this is it.😿

Love the blue diagonal.

No, that would be the CRX.

KitKat Japan Is Ditching Plastic Packaging For Paper Which You Can Fold Into Origami Greenwashing. Have you ever heard of it? It is essentially the false impression that a company or its products are more environmentally sound than they really are. For a company like Nestlé, one of th...

TIL they have recyclable paper wrappers with origami instructions in Japan.

Aw, give that boy a churu or new box or something. Get 'em, Eddie!

Bikes in every street scene, compact cars and no one carries a gun.

Neighbor across street using a leaf blower is the official end of Xmas. Back to hating everyone.

WTF, we are banning DJI in the US. RIP aerial cinematography, Ronin, RC aviation.

Old trash can luminaria to see the way

Get us out of the darkness!

White and brown farolitos on fence and brown on ground.

Made farolitos from fast food sacks, Hanukkah candles from Goodwill and couple old bags of sand in the yard.

Feliz Navidad!

My aloe has started to flower. I've never seen one do this.

What a week it has been

Yeah, almost got burned and now don't know who to trust.

Inaba Churu Chowder display. Careful, choose Chowder Variety Pack, NOT Paté.

Oh no, the Inaba Churu Chowders are down to a small shelf from what used to be a large end cap display. It's a complete and balanced meal, not a supplement and the only wet food Buster will eat. A Walmart exclusive, not even available on the Inaba website. Hope it remains available.

This is why I support freedom of expression.

Appropriately, it is the chaos of a system that supports free speech that gives rise to the grand process of democratic self-governance and the ideally upward arc of human progress and flourishing.

Yesterday a Stoppard play, today a tweet.

Finally watched the Beatles Anthology on my last days of Hulu/Disney+. Never heard of it in the 30 yrs it's been around. Now it's older than the Beatles break-up was in 1995.

Happy anniversary, Eddie! Hope you all get new boxes and heating pads for the holidays!

I also had to turn off the water to deal with a leak recently. My biggest concern was being without a bidet. Had to improvise by poking a hole in a plastic water bottle. Thank goodness it only took a day to fix.

Hope everything dries out quickly.

It's getting cold.

Mine is still hooked up to the TV, but I only play Pokémon GO now.

Thank you for your service. Please finish the book!

So much better than bulky waterproof work boots or expensive, bulky NEOS overshoes.

I used a similar pair at work on a rare rainy day here in Albuquerque. Trudged through mud and ankle deep puddles with no problem. Easily fold up to fit in my bag and cheap.

I was looking at a Rad but they use really wide 20x3.0 custom tires and the geometry was set up more like a moped. Went with the lighter, more pedal friendly Lectric XP Lite 2.0.

I've been very happy and impressed with the capabilities so I hope they stick around.
