Can’t say I’m enamored by the description of the plot, but I absolutely adore this album, so I’m still tempted to check it out.

I don’t run in gloves often because I’m so much warmer when I’m running than I am when I’m walking or standing outside. I generally dress as if it were 20 degrees warmer than it is, but it can be problematic for the first bit of a run. What I’ve found works best for me is running a short loop that comes back to my house in an easy to remove jacket, hat, and gloves that I can drop off at the door on my way past then continuing with the bulk of my run. In these cases any old gloves will do. When I do wear gloves for the full run, I wear a pair of thin, but insulated gloves from Heat that I got at Costco. They have silver in the fingers, so I can use my phone. It’s more difficult than without the gloves, but it’s not like I’m using my phone much mid run anyway.

My wife liked the idea of Eleanor if we had a girl, I never liked it, but luckily we had a boy, so we didn’t have to cross that bridge.

At work, we named the old, decrepit copier Opal in an effort to humanize it and get people to treat the old girl with more love and patience.

We are all mammal people on this blessed day.

I thought the god chose the person who had suffered more of the gods torture.

I don’t think my head ever touches my headrest when I’m driving. Rarely, I’ll lean back while sitting still, but that’s the only time I’m ever even aware of it.

I think most students are copying/pasting instructions to GPT, not uploading documents.

And the x moves to a different solar system at the last possible second.

A few years ago, I started a sentence in my class with “When I was born”. A student instantly chimed in and said “What in the 19’s?” And I thought in my head, of course you idiot, everybody is born in the 19’s. It still haunts me.

Any two part move like dig or fly.

Exactly. This would have been excellent as a limited series, but I assume it was profitable so it outlived its premise.

I worry some that therapy has gotten into an industry where more people are interested in making profit than providing quality of care which has made a market where therapy can serve as a kind of yes man market as well. I definitely don’t mean to belittle the benefit of therapy, but I know plenty of people who have shopped around therapists until they got one who said what they had already decided they wanted to hear as opposed to looking for a partner to work through specific issues with.

If swimming wasn’t the first event, I’d like my odds. I don’t like the idea of swimming at the same time as the shark, even if eating your opponent is grounds for disqualification.

I think you’re right that they regurgitate food for their young like most birds. A unique puke related vulture fact is that they projectile vomit at predators as a deterrent and means of dropping weight to flee after they’ve been gorging on a carcass.

I used this system more than I care to admit and never had significant problems with it. My biggest issue was when trying to modify an existing item on the ticket.

I bought a 25 foot leash when training my dog. I’ll never catch him if he doesn’t want me to, but I can get within 25 feet of him.

What an irrational mistake.

Unfortunately, a corn stalk can only get you so far.

Great tip! That one says it’s unsupported on my platform, but I’ll try to find another. It will certainly be a QoL update.

I ditched Chrome for Firefox about a year ago. On desktop, it’s been a seamless transition, although I occasionally still open Chrome to inspect webpages that I’m working on. On mobile however, I find myself missing many features that the Chrome mobile browser had, especially sharing images directly to other apps and viewing sports scores/schedules directly in the Google search results.
