David Dayen has a piece in the prospect (you can find it easy enough, I don't want to be a link pusherman)

He blames public anger on the whole "enshittification" and it's predecessor, "crapification"

I wish I had captured the experience on video, but there was some app I was forced to use that made me select my birthdate by clicking ONE DAY AT a time backwards from now().

Use the app please.
Enter your birthdate by clicking

@tor_haxson I saw a date input like that on a list of all time worst form inputs. Amazing you experienced it in the wild.

I have some delta ticket refunds that are going to expire if I do not use them.

As much as I think the sphere, and vegas, and dead music are a bad combo.

Some old good friends are going in July, and it would be nice to see them.

You can make a vegas trip nice by adding a day at Red Rocks, by just driving out to the desert.

We went "meteorite hunting" once which is really just walking around a salt flat looking for rocks, and it is great silent fun.

still undecided..

@mrcompletely

LoL, sort of answers itself doesn't it.

A third option came to mind, and that is visit a friend in Montana who is ill.

@tor_haxson that sounds lovely too.

I am suffering from a tick borne infection of some sort,

Basically the protocol at least at urgent Care centers is.

Tick bite, + symptoms => A course of antibiotics.

I am cool with that, and glad I didn't go to my doctor who may have been less likely to prescribe.

So yeah, FYI, if it is more than just the usual itch, and your lymph nodes get in on the action, visit a doctor.

We need an AI agent that goes out and kills ticks, a hummingbird sized tick eater.

Autonomous trucks?

You know how you can move 200 truckloads of freight with less than 200 truck drivers..???

A train !!,

That's right 200 year old technology, no LIDAR required, no collision detection system.

@mrcompletely@heads.social avatar

@tor_haxson trains were the right answer all along, you just gotta do em better

Have any of you ever used, rented or purchased one of them there powered wheelbarrows?

I have tons of woodchips to move on steep terrain. Not so steep that a strong 24 year old couldn't handle it.

So are those things better than a strong 24 year old?

@tor_haxson maybe you can hitch little wagons to the turtles. Won't be fast but incremental change adds up

@tor_haxson@heads.social avatar

@mrcompletely

I dunno man, ever since 1977 turtles everywhere have cast off the yokes and are no longer beasts of burden, now they mostly dance, and play tambourines (poorly, they have no hips)

@tor_haxson @UncleJimmy west coast crew will be running late. Cats had a shockingly active afternoon which should lead to a heavy snooze here soon

@mrcompletely @tor_haxson

man, these 2 are straight trolling me right meow. Laying all proper like they’re in GQ magazine and forcibly staying awake like the lead actress in Freddie Kruger.

Update !!

Bad news for Eve, Lily is still in the box.

Anyone's game to be honest, a little belly fur, a tail-to-nose the day is young.

Here is the leader board.

@tor_haxson the box is such a power move out of the gate

thesizzler,
@thesizzler@heads.social avatar

@mrcompletely @tor_haxson The contest's timing is astute. That box had fallen out of favor for many weeks until a sudden change in preference happened a couple of days ago. I think Lily knew she had to be on her A-game in order to compete with Eve, Esther, Jumpy, and Girl Trouble, et al.

Saving it up I hope !!

Sleep On !!!

@tor_haxson currently in between sleep cycles. Stay on target. Cloudy day reduces the chance of full extension poses but we'll see.

I watch a lot of TV while sitting with my Mom.

Happy Mothers Day everyone.

Hitting the dregs with Martha Stewarts latest Garden Series.

OMG, it is like an access TV show at times. Obviously she is not taking much outside advice.

It is a lot like, "rich eccentric lady plays around with money and land"

She discussed the price of mahogany for raised garden beds !!

Her friends, are.. well they want the advertising, or the $$

It is not all bad, but enough bad to make it fun.

mrcompletely,
@mrcompletely@heads.social avatar

@tor_haxson I try to excuse Martha's Ancien Régime vibe but mahogany raised beds are guillotine fodder

tor_haxson,
@tor_haxson@heads.social avatar

@mrcompletely

In her defense, she went with white oak, but the fact that she mentioned mahogany is just ridiculous. Any sane content editor would have cut that out.

In 5 short days, we will be having a

So set your clothes, or shoes, or shoeboxes or piles of assorted stuff in the sunny spot, and get ready.

Work on your Curls, Otterpaws, BasketLegs, Long Stretches and Cat-stacks.

It will be pretty exciting.

Bigger than Derby Day, almost as long as a cricket match.

Charge your cell phone cameras, be ready to record audio in case of snoring.

It will be wild.

On May 16th, Dead & Co begin a historic run at the Sphere. I asked my cats how they intend to celebrate.

Girl Trouble:
Fuck Those Clowns.
Every show is like 6-25-94 now.
So Vegas is appropriate. I will ignore this and sleep all day.

StroopWaffel:
I think I will sleep mostly.

The other cats were more or less of the same opinion,

So while the Boys (or what's left of them) play inside a giant cellphone screen.

We will be having a 5-16-24

Start training now !!

How many USB cables are needed in order to have ONE, just one, that is nearby when I need it?

Is there some mathematical principal, like logX/number of rooms, * number of cars

Hi MSTDN,

About 3 weeks ago I gathered a thrashing squirrel off the highway and brought him home.

I didn't post about him much, because I suspected an unhappy ending, and who needs to hear that.

But little critters are tenacious, and Arvey (R-V, short for Rabies Vector) is going to be released tomorrow.

He sits upright, is appropriately frantic. He may not be perfect, but his chances are good.

An No, he never really learned to like us.

"So long and thanks for the nuts" 🐿️
