I don't know what this plant is, but it spawned from a sidewalk crack and I love it for weirdness and resilience.

Because of an accident and traffic, it took me 35 minutes for a typical 12 minute trip to get my car fixed today. $250 for a software fix. On top of the other software issue, I hate everything today and want to log TF off everything.

Locked out of all Windows apps today at work. Talk about lost production time... It will take at least an hour to reset not counting all the wasted time trying to get it to work.

I will get in line for any vaccine offered. It's one of humanities greatest inventions.

Amazon does not have the rights to Tolkien's The Silmarillion or #LOTR, but only to the appendices of the main series. After Season 1, Tolkien enthusiasts generally agreed that the show is not set in the same continuity as the books.

The internet is definitely NOT forever. I clean up broken links every day. https://www.axios.com/2024/05/21/digital-decay-media-trends

I don’t expect too much from people. Just that reasonably smart people not do obnoxious and dumb things that make other’s lives more difficult.

Apparently that IS too much to ask.

#NationalRescueDogDay My granddog Tito. He lives too far away and I miss him.

It’s always nice to get the rare bit of credit. Unfortunately, it’s incorrect which means no one gets to the website. It’s sharonahill.com, an important distinction.

This is the story of my day.

What an uncomfortable day all around. I just can't with people today.

Someone is struck dumb, but it's not the scientists. It's the headline writer.

I have so much stuff on my schedule today and no motivation. Just want to go back to sleep. Being stuck in your own head is a terrible way to start a busy day.

Feeling perturbed about something a friend did this weekend. My efforts were ignored and unappreciated. But if I made my thoughts known, I’d be seen as a harpy.

I regularly get shade from my kids for silly stuff I do that they disagree with. You teach kids to be critical thinkers and independent and then they talk back to you all the time and criticize. A lousy and annoying side-effect.

We bought our third EV. A used Chevy Bolt for our kid to use this summer. I can't imagine ever going back to gas cars.

What's a good search engine for #news stories? Some of the newer ones just don't pick up news sites or can't limit by date.

I logged in to Facebook a day or two ago to pin a post that basically said: "I'm still around, just not here. My email is ______ and here's a link to my blog. Stay in touch if you're so inclined."

I've had contact with a few folks. I really despise how FB has become so entrenched in my friends lives. I'd love for them all to leave it, but they're too invested.

What is it I was taught?
"Vote with your feet."
I stopped posting about why people should leave a while back. I gave up preaching about secure communication and open source alternatives. Part of me feels like I abandoned them, but a big part of me also realizes that I gave them a means to contact me. I'll reach out to my closest peeps, anybody else...ball is in their court.

I'm just done supporting shitty companies. I'm a stubborn son-of-a-bitch when it comes to my principles, but it can make for a lonely existence at times.

I read the book and saw the show. I'm eager to see the movie. The casting looks great. https://youtu.be/6COmYeLsz4c?si=I49fpZngEINI6OaN

It's been a very busy two days. After dinner will be a cocktail and starting Bridgerton S3. Because my brain needs to STFoff.
