I miss the pandemic. Socially isolating meant I got to spend more time with my kids and extended family than I had in decades due to limited sports and other activities. And even work, while it didn’t stop (luckily), provided more valance - especialy more than now.

Kevin Smith posted on Facebook that this had to be the Catholic Church trolling him for getting back the rights to Dogma and its 29th Anniversary.

…or Hagerstown.

On the Beach by Nevil Schute. Read it as a kid and didn’t realize what I was getting into. Kept waiting for the ending to have some kind of silver lining. Something. Then the last of humanity fucking dies and the last character commits suicide.

Enjoy it, even the hard parts. They go by fast and you will say one , looking back at a picture of your child as a baby when they are in High School, “I miss that baby.”

Bathtime is a great time as well - lots of laughs, fun, and (I’m guessing) with a daughter something that will go away sooner rather than later (i.e., your not going to get your hair done like your wife would). But, I have two sons so who knows - balls, farts, and the like have continued well into teens to the chagrin of my wife. :)

You putnin a 1Tb MicroSD card (<$70 on amazon thatsbfast enough to play games from). If that’s too hard, maybe a SteamDeck isn’t for you.

Just another teacher that simply doesn’t understand how other jobs work.

So…a new Dark Alliance game is up next?

So…you’re close to me. Here’s what you want to say - and it WILL vary from person to person regarding what you get so try to find someone you like and stay with them (or a few of them).

“Number two, sides and back. Blended in tight. Cut the top down so it just falls back - not spiked, just falling back.”

The “just falls back, close to spiked” is the key length thing for the top. Also, them thinning the side to blend in better is a good thing and will make it look better longer.

Huh. No one has said ground meat breaker/chopper.shen my wife got one, I said it was a waste, a spatula was fine, etc etc. Then I used it once…holy crap so much better and easier to get exactly the chunkiness you want from ground beef, turkey, etc. Love the the thing now.

Saw Lost Highway with two friends - only one couple was in the theater with us. Halfway through, we all started discussing what the fuck was going on in the movie we were so confused.

You can only use an Apple Watch with an iPhone. While you CAN use one without a phone, you need an iPhone to configure it the first time (or if you need to reset).

Thry are very locked in.

I disagree. Transformers:The Movie

Dating myself…but…AcidDraw was what I used back in the day. That was for ANSI stuff as well.

This is wrong. Catholics can pray “directly to God”. It’s actually what contrition is considered doing and part of confession. Catholics also believe you can petition Saints for intercession from God (so like, “Hey, you know God, can you put in a good word for me?”).

That second part is what many Protestant denominations have/had an issue with.

The core part here, however, relates to plenary indulgences and is part of what drove Martin’s reformation.

(This is described - the indulgences part being what drove the wedge between Martin Luthor and the Pope - in the Wiki you linked.)

This place is way more fun than you might think.

I always have (stayed woth MP3s) but its harder and harder to even listen to them away from a phone. Major issue I have now is it’s a PITA to play a local library on networked speakers (Echo, specifically) w/out voice interaction being the sole means of use. I just want a tablet with a nice interface to allow me to play music on various Echo’s and speaker sets.

Bluetooth is an option, but it’s not really “home automation” setup friendly.

Kevin eating some beans.
