And a floating crotch.

Cat vomiting somewhere in the room.

Some video games do this to me depending on how good the storytelling is. 10 Dead Doves still has me thinking about it two weeks after my second playthrough.

I had a dream where I congratulated you.

I'm a software developer, and I sometimes if I'm asked how something works, I can find it difficult to explain things in a way that would make sense to the listener, whether they are a PM or the client.

Other times, depending on the question, I simply don't know the answer, and it could take hours for me to gain enough understanding of the project to even respond intelligently.

When my cat had to go to the vet, someone else would drive while I held the carrier open and pet the cat and let her look out the window. She would still cry, but not constantly.

Would fans pay to watch a short, fat guy write code while wearing nothing but his underwear (and sweat pants, and a slightly over-sized t-shirt)?

Basically just this:

I vaguely recall a Teddy Ruxpin that was missing an eye or two.

I don't remember if it was on sale, but I got 10 Dead Doves on a whim and I'm not dissapointed so far.

Immediate family all met at my sister's house for spaghetti, as is our tradition. The cookies she made were amazing.

I once went to a woodworking store to get supplies for one of my brief ADHD hobbies, and the guy there mentioned that they have classes and there were some carvings on display that people made. It sounded like a nice, small group of people and if I wasn't so lazy and socially anxious I might've enjoyed joining.

 

I'm not sure exactly when, but at some point in the past month I stopped getting text messages in a group chat between my mom and siblings. Weird thing is I don't seem to have any problem getting texts sent just to me, or even with other group texts (as far as I know).

We mostly just share memes and shit, but it drives me nuts thinking that someone could be trying to tell me something and it just doesn't reach my phone.

I had her for at least 18 years and she was special. She was shy and spent 99% of her time in my bedroom, but she was also pretty vocal and would often reply when you spoke to her.

Learn Git Branching (learngitbranching.js.org)
 

So before anyone mentions it, yes I really did want to put Linux on it (MX Linux is my current favorite), but the person it's for is not very computer savvy and I don't feel like doing tech support, so fuck it, they can keep using Windows.

But before I hand it off, I was wondering what else I should install (and/or what stupid Windows settings to disable) to make it as usable and secure as reasonably possible.

So far I'm thinking Firefox + uBlock Origin, and maybe Avast unless someone has a less annoying free antivirus.

 

They also seem to realized that the dog can't get them through the glass.

 

Honestly, I find these emails more amusing than infuriating. Is that $800 per week? Total? I guess I'll never know, because I didn't become a software developer just to work in a warehouse.

I just got a bill for a Wayfair credit card that was issued by Citi bank that I did not apply for. I never even shopped on that website.

I tried contacting both Citi bank and Wayfair, but since I don't have the full account number, I couldn't get past Citi's automated phone menu.

Wayfair's phone system was a fucking nightmare getting transferred to various departments, but eventually transferred me to a foreign call center where they insisted that they needed my social security number and birth date to file a report, but I'm not giving them that.

The best thing is that the scammer managed to get a higher credit limit than I was able to get on my own card.

 

For example, I saved a bunch of these small cardboard sheets that were separating the rows of cans in a box of cat food.

Add some glue and you have a little tent for your cat.

 
 

I only ask because the bulging seems slight enough that I'm not 100% certain that's not just how the battery is supposed to look.

This is inside a Lenovo ideapad flex 4. I only opened it to replace the hard drive.
