Oh my, they are in town in a couple weeks at Revolution Hall. Don't have it budgeted with the planned move straining the accounts...

til there is a neighborhood over in Lake Oswego called Waluga. Why they haven't rebranded themselves as Waluigi is a mystery for the ages.

I've been giving good free stuff away on NextDoor, a bass guitar this morning, a mandolin a couple days ago, a CarPlay capable stereo tonight. I start each listing with "Do NOT click the 'Hi, is this still available?' button because I might not answer you" and it's helped weed out the unserious and the snipers.

I seriously don't know what to do with all these data breach letters I get. I'm kinda giving up.

Amazing, just found 2 more data breach letters in another stash of papers I found. Everything is terrible.

Bless the Northwest and it's abundant rain that provides nourishment to the farms in our area that feed the people and to the rivers that provide a place for fish to transit to and from the ocean... but honestly, I'm ready to head out. The SAD is just too much for me. 😔

12 years is a pretty good run in one spot. I came up here for a job and that job evaporated with acquisition coupled with the pandemic, and I couldn't find employment in the area here when I got cashiered last year, so I am ready to say goodbye.

@mckern we're lucky in that we have a house that appreciated a lot in 5 years. I contemplated the upper MW and the east but we're going to Vegas. While I recognize the problems with water and population in the SW, I'm just a westerner at heart and think I always will be. Plus there is a lot more home building that we can jump into eventually there, I don't think PDX metro can't do much in that area with how the green belt has it restricted.

I legit have anxiety when I can't leave a Zoom meeting before the app tells me the host ended the call first.

@dopiaza oh same but I still get the "Host ended the meeting" and I want to beat that some day; I should just install xkill from homebrew on the mac 😂

My new misdirected email was because some guy in South Carolina with my name uses my email address as the ID for his customer rewards account with Tractor Supply Company.

I just gave a 5 star rating to the American Farm Works 0.7 Joule 15-Mile AC-Powered Low Impedance Electric Fence Charger.

I am sure it is a quality product and feel confident in my decision.

Three days in a row I haven’t faced the anxiety of . Feels pretty good actually, I may have hit my limit. I’m also proud I ran with LIGER as my starting word for many months and even got some solved puzzles on the second guess with it.

@Axomamma trying to get away with the game obsession actually, been on the wordle train since it was a couple weeks old, and I play that as well as 4 other similar games daily with some friends in our Slack instance (NYT Strands and Connections, Worldle, and Framed, with NYT Flashback on the weekend). My problem is as soon as the clock strikes midnight I try to knock em all off before bed. I need just stop for awhile.

I haven’t tried to edit a page since June. Why did they do this? I can’t find anything in my account. Three years? That’s stupid.

Weird, I'm blocked on my mobile browser, I can edit on my laptop. Logged out of mobile Safari, cleaned cookies, logged back in and still blocked, sharing the same IP address as my desktop browser. This is an outrage! I am contacting Jiminy Whales ASAP.

They heard the bath water being drawn so they’re huddling and shaking in fear. Look at the worry!
