Every Day For A...

Hello from the coolest July 3rd of the next 50 years.

I'm finding new ways to push my own boundaries of lazi/forgetfullness.

On wrongness, and the best way to address it.

It turns out they weren't full of shit, at least about this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_72

People don't actually hate me when I change plans last minute, right?

I am watching (and enjoying) All Her Fault on Peacock, but I've got one petty complaint I can't stop thinking about.EDIT: I realized belatedly that it's Dakota Fanning, not Elle Fanning, who co-stars in All Her Fault.

Nice: an unexpected day off.Not: spending the whole day leaking anxiety and stress from every pore.

The sound at the beginning of this episode is a noise my truck was making before I drove it out of the station parking lot. Probably its last words. RIP my friend.

The Rules, which I am making up as I go along, get another update.

I did a thing today. Hopefully it will make my day job a little more manageable.

For-profit healthcare is perhaps the best example of fatally misaligned incentives in the history of everything.

Sometimes showing up is all you can do, and that's enough.

We're cat-sitting, and it's making me fur-losophical.

I can't always remember to eat lunch when I'm home by myself, but I can spell "comeuppance" right on the first try.

It's not often that we notice a habit as it's forming. Hopefully this will help me address it.

A conclusion on a specific question, not the conclusion of the experiment. Apologies if I scared you/got your hopes up.

Musing on what to do if I'm too tired to record something at the end of the day.

At some point, if you keep falling for the scam, it becomes your fault.

I have nothing nice to say about mosquitos, especially in November.

I don't have anything profound or insightful, or even particularly entertaining, to say about living for half a century. It sure beats the alternative.

This episode is aimed at a very specific target audience. She knows who she is.

All aboard!
