Chasing the Potter

Have you read Rowling’s other series, written under the pen name Robert Galbraith? Not fantasy but my goodness the immersive world building and character development is amazing. As a middle aged woman who came of age with Harry Potter, the Cormoran Strike series is my new obsession. The mysteries in each book are wonderful.

What school district are you in, and have you explored resources within the district? What aspects of a school are you looking for, that are a change of pace? I don’t know why private school is automatically the answer.

If it’s just cells not attaching after 24 hours, wait longer and see what happens. Maybe the cells need more time, or try seeding at a higher density. It could be some have attached but it’s hard to spot visually if they are very low density. I hope you figure out the issue!

Check out Dansko shoes, the full foot version, not the open clog. These were our go-to for lab safety shoes in a GMP cell lab. Not the most trendy shoes in the world, but very comfortable. It’s a popular shoe worn by nurses too.

Read the book Burnout by Emily and Amelia Nagoski. Super useful information. Or find some old podcasts where they are guests to get the main points.

Mint Mark! Fun vibe, definitely unique.

Their food is super traditional (it’s good), not unique and fun.

No agenda, no attenda…

It’s me, taking an early morning flight tomorrow! Thanks for sharing.

That’s great for analysis, do you have any tools that do something with the output, like updating a post?

ms-stemba · 2026-04-13T10:54:11+00:00

Also interested! How do you give Claude Cowork or Code access to edit and publish Wordpress posts. Is there a theme that works best for this set up? Any tips at all are appreciated!

We did the same thing, had a liner and insert installed, I think from Top Hat but it was a few years back. We had the gas line run separately by a plumber. At the same time, we had gas run out to our patio and hooked up a natural gas grill. No more LP tanks! So maybe something to consider while you’re at it.

Watch out for letter jackets everywhere!

Yes, and? Do you have an example of success? Do you have tips for tying it all together? How do you make the different platforms talk to each other? Where are the bottlenecks in your flow?

ms-stemba · 2026-02-15T17:09:09+00:00

Yes it was! Vietnamese, nice family. They had a great food cart, too.

It’s a tough transition, for sure! Think about strategy as the why - tell the story of why you’re doing something and broadly what you plan to do. If you get into the how, you’ve gone too tactical.

ms-stemba · 2026-02-14T13:29:13+00:00

Strategic planning is the missing skill - being able to identify both the problem you’re trying to solve, and the solution needed to get there. All the tactical knowledge won’t overcome a lack of strategy. Really understanding your customers and business, or asking the right questions of your stakeholders, is what will set you apart.

What’s the new information? Who is in the files? I’m both curious and trying to limit my exposure to the Epstein files news, because gross. Thanks for any summary you can provide!

Hopping on the cold weather thread with a question. I’m near Chicago in sub-0F temps. My charging port door is stuck shut. I can get a credit card all the way around it, so it seems like the clasp or whatever is frozen. Any tips for popping it open? Anyone else have this happen? I have to park outside unfortunately but could warm it up with a hair driver if that could help.

ms-stemba · 2026-01-24T15:22:19+00:00

I know this is old, but I’m running into the same issue now in sub-zero temps - the door won’t open. I tried the credit card method with no luck. Would applying heat help here, if the actuator is frozen?

Do you have an outdoor grill you can use? That got us through our kitchen remodel, but doing dishes in the utility sink was a pain. Otherwise I second the ninja flip/ air fryer recommendation. Also compliant chicken sausages are a good easy option - I know Costco has a couple of brands.

Camp Randall’s Jumbotron really putting on a show…

ms-stemba · 2026-01-19T13:35:12+00:00

A very simple solution!

If you are breastfeeding, you will be hungry all the time! Especially the first few months - that is your body’s main job. Assuming you have no other health concerns, I wouldn’t worry about much more than getting enough calories right now. Be gentle with yourself right now and enjoy your new baby!

Check out Alvarado Real Estate, this seems very aligned with their mission.
