@DrTCombs you have an ebike, she has an acoustic bike. Why are you out of breath? 😝

@mikey I’m too embarrassed to recruit anyone to Star Trek much less FOD.

ahh, April 1. The day clickbait is "cool," and all the corporate accounts and non-corporate news outfits compete to see who can sell the most outlandish stories to their readers.

in other words, the best day of the year to avoid the internet.

and yes, I am loads of fun at parties.

@DrTCombs can confirm! 😝

@sixcolors's annual Apple report card is out, with lots of comments from wicked smart people and at least one complete idiot.

@flargh listen I’m still mad that @jamesthomson discontinued DragThing but I think calling him a complete idiot is going too far!

The other night the kid and I e-biked home from a late theater rehearsal via a cross-town in and . It was a clear enough night that she was picking out constellations as I pedaled.

We also saw 3 deer and an owl. More greenways, please!

@DrTCombs that’s super cool! Great bike light too

@DrTCombs nice! the most impressive part was you got to the trail from downtown without any wrong turns. I am not able to do that!

I got a LinkedIn alert to apply for a buyer job at WD40 this morning, but I don't know, that's a slippery slope...

@howiecohen maybe you should apply. You know what they say about the squeaky wheel.

@mikey including the FODs! Speaking of the FOD server, how are the latinum/scarves stores, or is there a website I should be looking at in lieu of bugging you? https://mastodon.social/@dansup/111861304917043195

I know I should be gratified that a posse of neighborhood kids (some I've never seen before) have identified my home as the place to be on this teacher workday, but I got work to do!

So, hit me with your favorite in-ear headphones with active noise cancelling, please.

I'm desperate.

Just got another "your private data was lost in a breach" letter, this time from a mortgage company that only had our mortgage for a single year. They bought our loan, and then sold it after ~10 months.

This whole system is complete fucking bullshit.

@Andres4NY I assume this is how these identity monitoring services make money — all these hacked companies paying for a free year.

@DrTCombs I got myself a great cost from here when in Amsterdam. If I had my bike I’d be happily wearing it! https://rain-couture.nl/

Heating the person not the home is great advice to save money but awful advice for productivity. If I'm warm and snuggly under a blanket with a hot water bottle and it's cold everywhere else then work just isn't getting done.

@Bridgemakes @mikey cold. cold? This is what my son in Wisconsin gets to encounter this weekend. (Temperatures in celsius out of deference to @Bridgemakes)

@mikey @Bridgemakes good points Mike but, to be fair, you can’t expect the Brits living on their tiny small island to understand such things.

@Bridgemakes @mikey I’ll counter your English-english with some Southern (US) English.

    @virtualbri my understanding is that there was no CGI in that film, all live action. Like Oppenheimer. 😑

    Every party needs a pooper and I guess this time it's me.

    As we approach 2024 I've started seeing memes based on an episode of Star Trek, in which they referenced Irish unification and stated that it was happening next year.

    Let me be clear, there is nothing wrong with pointing out what people of the past thought would be happening today but please keep in mind that the troubles are very much in living memory. (1/2)

    Funny how different platforms have such different cultures of interaction.
    Ask a question on FB, and responders will assume you are sincere and also an idiot and gently suggest you try googling first.
    Ask a question on Twix; responders will challenge your right to exist, much less ask a question.
    Ask a question here, and within a few hours you get a dozen thoughtful, detailed answers including some that spark fascinating conversations and at least five new friends.
