Totally a collaborator with P2025.

What a cock-goblin.

Oh, they wrote it. They damned well wrote it. Now they deny it, and those are the lies I’m accusing them for.

Lies. All lies.

Lucas’s Paradox: At what point does a live action film win an Oscar for Best Animation?

Haven’t we seen this film once already?

The beacons are lit! Gondor requires aid!

With consistency. Whether I have 1 cup of coffee in the morning, or drink caffeinated beverages all day, the key for me is to do that consistently, or suffer dire consequences. Ramping up, I can’t focus and anxiety attacks. Ramping down I get migraines.

Woe betide me if I am on a ramp down and find myself having to take an Excedrin or three. That spike keeps me up for days.

I crushed it in a job interview

A sandwich of a couple of frozen Entenman’s (Local brand?) Mini chocolate chip cookies with a spoonful of Ben & Jerry’s Phish Food filling.

edit: my spouse wants me to add, “and a joint.”

Oh! I thought “daylight savings” was another US-only thing like our Freedom units and our slobbering worship of guns.

It’s 18 minutes to Monday in London, as I write this

It’s thin gruel this week, but I’ll take it.

/Bannon!? No overthrowing the country! Not during an election year. Enough of your shit, young man, you’re in tine-out. Go sit in a corner for a few minutes and think about how you can be more subtle next time.

You get what you pay for, though. I’ve had nothing but good experiences as an Amex card holder. You need to live a lifestyle that gives you opportunities to use the system, but you can offset the cost of even the Platinum charge card if you sign up for, and then use, all the perks.

For how I use it, I’d say it pays for itself.

edit to add: their customer service is always stellar, and their disputes department are really effective.

What brand of shirt do you wear? Also, which wrist do you prefer to wear a watch-- left, right or middle?

Live by the Mango, die by the Mango.

No love for CNN here, but that was the right move this time. One hopes it’s the fresh start they needed.

(Also? One despairs that, at long last, this is that fresh start that won’t be.)

Excellent.

The tears will be delicious, and I shall slurp them.

SLURP THEM, I say!

I’ve been happy with the GE Enbrighten series, though they do require a neutral wire. I use the Z-Wave models, but I can’t imagine the ZigBee models would work any differently.

Neat feature of the Enbrighten line is they recognize several gestures including short tap, long press, double tap, and I think even triple tap. I configured mine so that short taps on/off toggle the lights between off and 100% on, long press on/off brightens/dims, and double tap on activates the preferred evening lighting scene.

I think Minoston are also a GE product line? Again, Z-Wave, but rated for higher wattage in my case. They also require a neutral wire.

I had a pair of no-neutral ZigBee switches sold as ‘Martin Jerry’ brand, but they were super dodgy. Terrible feel to them, and they made a sort of electrical whine when the fixture was on. I pulled them right out and sent them back.
