Started designing the first pass at the UI for #ProjectTapestry today. Journey of 1,000 miles and all that.

@gedeonm Is it done yet? 🤣

It would be a fast-track to financial ruin, but I wonder how much more enjoyable my life would be if I left my current career and opened a book store.

@CStamp There just doesn’t seem to enough people who read to support many bookstores. Plus, the people who do still read seem to be fully supported by Amazon. My local town of about 60,000 people doesn’t have a single bookstore.

@CStamp @gedeonm I read a LOT, but 99% of my reading is digital. Perhaps I should open a book museum instead of a book store. 😄

I may never recover from this time change. Just go on without me, everybody.

@gedeonm Hang with it. At least in my opinion, it starts really rough but gets good as it goes.

Where the heck are those new iPad Pros already? 😐

@gedeonm I’m ready to pull the trigger. I’m still using the iPad Pro I bought in late-2018.

Like an aged cop in an action movie declaring this is his last day before retirement, I just have to make it through the day and I’ve survived yet another week.

@gedeonm This is true! Can’t they just let me enjoy the last half century of my life!? 🤣

At the tractor supply store:

“Can your dog have a treat?”

“Yes!”

@gedeonm It was shifting into neutral a few days ago; now this. You’re the scourge of speedy checkout this week. 🤣

Immediately tosses all my existing subpar teapots out the window… 😢

Great! Now just center the face properly in the circle and I’ll slap it on all my pages! 😑

@gedeonm Perhaps its the imperfection that represents its humanity.

Tried to watch Space:1999 for the first time last night on Amazon Prime, but what it said was season 1, episode 1 was not that; and whatever episode it was seemed to start many minutes into it. I’ll try again later and hope that gets fixed.

ashkendo,
@ashkendo@mastodon.social avatar

@gedeonm I’ll definitely try it again. This was using Amazon Prime’s Freevee, but the app was either messing up or that episode is uploaded wrong. I think that pilot episode is on YouTube, too.

Anyone here remember pay toilets? What a scam that was back in the day.

@gedeonm I don’t remember pay toilets, but I sure remember this…

@gedeonm when I was little, every motel my family stayed at when we went to the beach here in NC had them.

Anyone out there drive an Ioniq 5? I’m looking at it for my next car and need to gather opinions both good and bad. If you have thoughts you wanna share please let me know. Thx!

Taking tomorrow off work for no other reason than to protect my sanity and “refresh my work stamina.” (However, I will be attending one meeting from 7-8am)

@gedeonm In 24 years at this job I’ve never taken all the vacation days I’m allowed in a year. I know I won’t this year, but I’m trying to put some effort into giving myself more time to myself.

What ingredients (besides avacados) are in your go to guacamole 🥑 recipie?

ashkendo,
@ashkendo@mastodon.social avatar

@gedeonm diced red onion, jalapeños, and salt are usually good additions. “Simple” is the theme that leads to good guacamole, in my opinion.

MEDIA TO SOCIAL MEDIA: You are ruining democracy by being in politics.
SOCIAL MEDIA: OK, we'll get rid of politics.
MEDIA: You're ruining democracy by being out of politics.
ME: Be careful, media, what you wish, panic, and lobby for.
