And this way, I had 2x the amount of fun... Though makes me worried, years ago I remember finishing this game without any programming, so what did I know then that I no longer do?? #GettingOld
Tomorrow I complete my 50th orbit around Sol. But today, I got proof that I'm bloody old.
Here in Brazil , public transit has to mark some seats as preferred for pregnant women, people with disabilities and the elderly.
I was in the subway, going back home when I moved closer to the exit, since my station was near. A woman sitting in one of the preferred seats offered it to me. I refused, mostly because I didn't realized what was happening until later.
Nootropic mix of Valerian Root, Tart Cherry, Magnesium, and supercritical-extracted Coriander, taken with chamomile tea and overnight vitamins and 1liter of water
Latch-lock all external doors with a secondary reinforcement
Go upstairs and set alarm system to Away to activate interior motion sensors in addition to all windows and doors
Set AC to 68
In upstairs sleep room, check all blackout curtains and replace pillowcase
Lock interior door and set latch-lock reinforcement (with 3” stud anchor screws in latch and hinges)

Activate Amazon Alexa routine to turn on bedroom lights and play repeated sounds if any of my inward-facing exterior cameras gets a motion alarm
Set HEPA filter and ceiling fan to high
Start CPAP machine I got on Craigslist so I can breathe completely under covers
Get under oversized weighted blanket
Get 3hours of sleep because it’s 4AM and wake up a few hours later and feel like shit all day
Just don’t get #Instagram. The ‘reels’ are shown on Facebook and consist of ‘you mums are doing it wrong, I’m so much better than you....’ ‘baby reveals’ ‘here’s how I cleaned this’ and load of wrong advice. A whole platform filled with this stuff? Not for me. #GettingOld
Ich dachte ja, eduroam wäre das beste wos je hets gits, aber wie grossartig sind bitte Lesebrillen für n Zehner? Einfach zu den bifokalen Kontaktlinsen dazu und ich kann ohne ausgestreckte Arme lesen — und ohne dass die Buchstaben so klein sind wie mit Gleitsicht. Und on top: Sonnenbrille lässt sich drüberziehen
Ok - turning 42 in a few weeks, and I thought I’d ask the #Fediverse : How old is too old to go to Dave and Busters? I've never been before and thought it'd be a cool thing to do for my #birthday#daveandbusters#gettingold
Suspect 1TB of quota on my broadband is not gonna be enough this month, as I've used 422GB so far. Have a little roll-over from last month, but we'll see!
I blame downloading games for summer play... Baldur's Gate 3 was 100GB on its own.
I remember when you could get multiple games on a single floppy disk.
Oh, fun #gettingOld moment. I was reading a book that I loved so much I felt the need to buy a physical copy, and I did.
(I can't read it, oh my god, I've been reading Kindles so long the font size snuck up on me)
(Anyway, read Terraformers by @annaleen it's a delight)
(If you live near me, and you're not nearsighted, hit me up for a barely used copy!)
👁️👁️ Well, had my yearly eye test done, need new glasses! Decided to go in, today to try some new frames on and make my decision to purchase them. This comes as hard, for me, as my current glasses are 5 years old (new lenses as and when required) my prescription sunglasses are 10 years old. I did not burst into tears at the total cost..thankfully. ✅
