So? I use Duck Duck Go anyway.

Love that dad has a Caffeine coffee cup.

Yep. I’ve joined the buycot for Lent. I put off all purchases there until after Easter and Passover are over.

When I make Scampi, I use the shells to make a shrimp stock to cook the shrimp and butter. Broiling jumbo shrimp with Bay’s Seasoning in the shell means I take the shell off before eating it.

Which reminds me of the new hire who was touring our newly installed data center.

“Wow. What great racks!” she said on entering the data center.

When that bicycle rider flipped off Trump’s motorcade during his first Badministration, the social media blowback got her fired from her job. She ran for Congress and won.

I hope this woman has a similar outcome.

Side query: I wonder if anyone in Child Protective Services is investigating Melon Husk’s home environment for his kids. He’s an resident alien who lied on his immigration paperwork and could be subject to deportation.

Gave up on them before the pandemic lockdown. They are a good indicator of toxic jobs.

If that stuff is anything like Crystal Lite’s Fruit Punch, it stains EVERYTHING. Bleach didn’t get it out. But Oxyclean Ultra worked. You know. Just incase you get some on a t-shirt.

Just like Tesla dealers are dealing with Molotov Coctails, I wonder what Trump will do when his properties world wide have sabotage against them. And anyone contracted to work for a Trump company will only do so if paid in cash up front? Want your plumbing that’s been clogged with grease? OK, 10K cash up front please.

Be sure you turn off the fume hood when you’re done.

Never talk to management over the phone. Get it in writing either as a text or email.

I read a post on Mastodon from someone in Ontario Canada that was proposing shutting off all export of oil and electricity to the US. The thing that made me doubt this was they were also calling for impeaching 45 (again!). That would leave Vance which scares me even more.

My father’s career advise to my brother and me was “Make lots of money so I can come live with you when I get old.”

My brother didn’t like that advise so he did a bunch of research and asked a bunch of people about their careers. He got a masters in an Engineering field but hated working in that field. So he got another masters. He doesn’t use it for his career.

I studied Chemistry and left grad school to do software development with no degree in it (it was the 80s). I never used my degree either.

Confronting my dad about his bad career advise would have just gotten his Standard Response to Criticism™–But I’m lovable.

And no he never lived with either of us. But then he never go old.

When some random #MAGAidiot complains that one of Trump’s new policies is hurting them, instead of blaming Trump, just remind the idiot “Isn’t that what you voted for?”

Also, when some #MAGAidiot complains that Trump’s new policies are impacting them, don’t blame Trump. Ask the idiot “Isn’t this is what you voted for?”

I wonder how well these would work over today’s VOIP lines. AT&T and my local phone company don’t sell wired lines any more in my area. All I could get is a VOIP line.

An ADA lawyer would be filing an accommodation lawsuit for each unit. It’d cost the landlord $40K/unit on average.

They should have hired a graphic designer who knew typography. Or someone who knew what kerning was. Extra points if they also heard of leading (as in lead-ing), although not relevant to this post.

“Straight boys are so clueless when someone is flirting with them.”

7 second pause.

Blink Blink. Stammer. “Ummm.”

Before Medicare, I paid $1500 for a mid-tier Kaiser plan. It had a $6000 annual deductible which I kept in a tax deductible Health Savings Account. For the most part, I paid for routine stuff like vaccinations, yearly checkup and bloodwork, meds like statins, and a bid discount on stuff from their pharmacy. With Medicare, I pay $185 to the US Government and $199 to Kaiser for their Advantage plan.
