ValidateMe is annoying enough when the person knows what their question is; when they don’t it’s almost like a perverse performance-art. #metafilter
Apparently it’s Psychedelic Furs day at Chez Pompom. Hey, I don’t make the rules.
Okay, I sort of do.
Me, all day today: Why won’t Scruff eat his food, is he unwell? *worry worry worry*
SO, this evening: Ah, he was probably full, after the big rat he ate early this morning.
So it’s pissing down now, and so, in keeping with my visceral understanding of Melbourne weather, I have a complicated arrangement to remove water from my yard, and a series of buckets to conserve water for future use.
I had forgotten how much early-career Kerbal Space Program is about painstaking aerobraking.
I bought a brass micrometer from AliExpress.

Cracking a beer now.
So what do I need to do to make Plex understand that this The Outer Limits isn’t that The Outer Limits?!
Planning myself the biggest, butteriest bacon butty I can assemble for dinner tonight.
Why yes, the SO is away on a work thing. How did you guess?
So my media centre seems to be getting a lot of attention from a script-kiddie in Hanoi.
I’m choosing to believe that this is cooler than boring old Chinese or Russian attacks.
(Though yes, I am Taking Steps)
Oh goodie! It’s “stay up all night and shout with your friends” night next door.
It must be a day.
@pompomtom At this point I’m leveraging my ignorance and just barracking for the bloke with the shortest name in each bout.
Enjoying the sumo, but dear lord am I crap at Japanese names.
Obligatory holiday boat shot 2.

Fantasy RPG: Dungeons & Dragons etc
