It’s friday…so I got a brain dump.
It’s Thursday night as I write this. I just got back from walking the dogs and I’m plugged into tunes. It was raining all day, and the two of them were like awful, bored kids today. So I took them out. Winston unloaded a pile of goo. That’s it. No more extras like chicken. Less treats. I baked some chicken and have been sharing it with them. Dumb. No Mas.
Saw this behind a paywall on PJ Media:
Sweet Jesus, she’s annoying. And keeping tabs and lists is dumb. When the kids are gone he’ll wonder why this woman is living in his house. I’ve known my girl a little over six months and the lists of little things she does for me is endless.
Think I’ve posted this before, but it’s on my list:
“Resentful childless harpies unconsciously longing for domination. Why else worship at the altar of Hamas? Why else would it be so overwhelmingly female?” — Dr. Jordan Peterson
They are utterly ignorant in general, and about Muslims in particular.
Joey IceCreamCone throwing down the gauntlet:
Apparently it took a few takes and edits to get this, and he still looks weird, cranked up. Literally. Any place, any time, jack! As long as they spotlight me when I’m talking, and mute your mic, oh, and no audience. MFer is a punk.
Whatever. It’ll be a goat rodeo. Why don’t we leave the old man to his pudding cups and sniffing. Have RFK jr and Trump debate. That would be interesting.
So Uncle Shithead wants to ban TikTok because Joe Chinaman is snooping. Meh. They’re just pissed that someone else is cataloging dumbshit video. I care less about China spying than us than the normal crew that’s currently rummaging around in my IT pants, so to speak. China isn’t going to haul me in for wrong-think. At least not yet anyhow.
I’d love to see how they do that, physically. Like VPNs aren’t a thing. You give them the power to do that, they’ll use it on any site. Then poof, the interweb dream is over. BTW, you can’t ask Apple to ban the app, while suing them to allow the unwashed developers into their ecosystem.
Best if used by….
Whoops. I don’t eat a ton of cereal or crackers. Should have tossed this when I moved. This wasn’t a cereal that I’d eat anyhow. BTW, I have an unopened box of saltines roughly the same vintage. BAH! Prolly still good.
My plants are flourishing:
My peppers are doing the same.

– Deal with a bad neighbor
I’m gonna say No. In my neighborhood, they can’t be bothered to hire a lawn service, let alone mow the lawn. I can’t tell you how many of these types I see every day, my direct alley neighbor being one of them. He apparently can afford two nice cars, and gobs of food (I see the trash he puts out that won’t fit in the bin) but can’t be bothered to deal with the lawn.
Many such cases here.
We had a Teams meeting today to say goodbye to new-boss. He’s retiring, and going on a mission trip to east BF Philipines. He was showing his last mission to Philippines, featuring a righteous pig roast. And what happens? We get a vegetablist complaining about the offense.
Seen on NextDoor:
FFS, look up from your navel, get on the web to the city’s solid waste site and learn what to do. You put that shit in the enormous green bin they give you. You know? Go home. Go TF home. You’re too short for the ride here in Texas. #LearningDisabled.
Seems fair.
Good lord. Who knew?
Got a belly laugh from that.
Me, for sure.
All I got. Have a good weekend. I have a fantastic project – wood, not IT that’ll be many posts to come. After a few trips to Guitar center, and being irritated with the people and prices, I’ll be building a bass. And more than likely, rebuilding my strat. I’m not happy with the hardtail conversion I did.

One of your best. EVER.
