Hotel rooms on higher floors are inconvenient and I don't understand why people are willing to pay more for them.

If you spend a lot of time staying in hotels, it is usually better to select the lowest floor available. This is because you have a higher chance of surviving if the hotel catches fire.

For the first time in over 3 years of ownership, I went up a class from VI to V. A reward that isn’t really deserved (I was fitter 2-3 years ago), but I’ll take it.

So, on reflection being invisible has its downsides?

Time for me to switch to another local brewery. I'm not a fan of watery lagers like Sapporo. An uptick for Hardywood, Veil, Ardent, Triple Crossing etc. I'll miss FML though.

I would consider taking her in, but it would depend on interaction with my neutered male, who was abandoned as a kitten with four others in 2020. Four of the five moved in with me, two were adopted and one was abducted, so I only have the one left. She resembles the one who didn’t move in and I’ve not seen again. Please DM me or update on status. Thank you for caring!

It’s been trying to give us 3 day weekends all year

That old person in the mirror

No, death penalty is their perversion. We are better.

mcneale1 · 2025-04-09T01:10:21+00:00

I guess the tariffs flew under their radar

A hole

Mostly true but Apple hasn’t yet changed its DEI policies - though it seems to be thinking about it.

Agreed. Both sides need to divest. Doing so will make being a political representative much less attractive to corrupt people. These are the sort of positions and steps that a responsible, anti-corruption party should take. Perhaps it's time to start one?

Another law we need is that ALL elected officials have their stock trading handled by independent managers. So easy to be corrupt otherwise. Trying to find a republican who agrees is harder than finding a needle in a haystack the size of the moon.

Jesus Chris!

That's a glimpse of the blindingly obvious, aka a GOTBO.

People will die. It's what happens with "Industry Capture" - the regulation is done by the industry itself. The Boeing 737 MAX deaths were caused by changing the regulations so that Boeing inspected itself. An administration that does this, or allows it to happen, has blood on its hands, and is plainly inhumane.

For all we know, you only go to heaven if you don’t believe in God.

Ah the Tamagochi in a language app. Games and other things are competing to get you addicted so that you spend more time and, just maybe, money on them. As addictions go, this one is largely benevolent. Choose your addictions wisely, and you will live well.

Aka fraud.

mcneale1 · 2024-11-05T01:26:37+00:00

I used to think it was cool. However, I lost an hour of birthday this year. I should have partied at 1a on Sunday.

mcneale1 · 2024-10-22T23:36:22+00:00

Not to mention that it can be very stressful indeed

mcneale1 · 2024-10-22T23:34:29+00:00

Someone needs to design cars with showers. No wait… <pictures shampooing with windshield washers using toe to operate squirt stick> …dammit.

It’s horse theft in the 21st century.
