why would anyone ask if we were selling pot plants at our elementary school garden sale?
Def Leppard is the safest music to air drum to while driving because you can keep one hand on the steering wheel.
that being said I'm tooting on Shabbat so that should tell you something I GUESS.
Temple was almost as hamische as I wanted. Im not the most observant Jew, but it's good to have the tribe around us to remind us that tikkun olam and tzedakah are still alive and kicking.
@GinnyMcQueen there's always Tito's Tacos...
Found a bunch of mismatched cocktail glasses at the thrift store and made these tonight. Somehow I'll get them and about 120 tomato plants into my car tomorrow for the big school sale! Too bad the shishito and poblano aren't big enough yet. If you are in the NELA area and bored tomorrow morning, drop by 50th and San Marcos and buy something to help the kids like the good people you are.
Tomorrow is all about our elementary school seedling sale. Tonight is all about Shabbat at the temple for the first time in over a year and making terrariums from stuff found at Goodwill

There's nothing like hearing your daughter exclaim 'ooh look! Ladybug exoskeletons!'
At work, I frequently eat lunch in my car. This isn't meant to make me sound sad or lonely; I just really like watching the groundhog drama unfold across the ditch from the parking lot.
The best part of being the boss is having to fix Quadro driver update issues after Patch Tuesday.

The people who run our local ReStore are like cheery pagan monks. My happy place.

@GinnyMcQueen unless you call it 'the shedquarters' and run an international nonprofit committed to eliminating sexualized violence out of it. #truestory #mywifedidit
Hey dudes. Don't @ women telling them to not speak about their experience with harassment.
It is, in fact, more harassment.
17 days ago: oh wow. this social media is quirky. not sure if I'll leave <bird site> but this is neat
now: I have three accounts, setting up my own instance, and have had better interactions with people than I've had in the 6+ years of using twitter.
thank you all, very much.
to combat "hey guys" a friend of mine made a site that will give you a gender neutral alternative every time you refresh
(Noodling hat: ON)
So, we're getting a lot of new instances. Like, nearly 90 new ones in the last 24 hours. This is great.
Here's my concern: $5 and I can get a new instance up and going in about an hour. Do it enough and I bet I can get it down to 5 minutes, including domain registration. This makes a blocklist impractical for protecting against hostile actors with money, time, and skills.
What we may need, more than a global blacklist, is a global whitelist.

Net Flix or other streaming services should offer a watch together option where people can watch a movie synched up and talk to each other.
