Microposts

I’ve seen various posts joking (or not) about the decision to deploy ALL the software with a single company.

I just got an email from a local sewing company that they are closing for the day because their registers and credit card systems aren’t working.

So much for separation of concerns.

Ally recently joined the woodworking guild and today she’s volunteering with her grandfather (Matt’s dad) at the guild for the first time. They are building toys to be donated to families in need closer to the winter holidays. ๐Ÿฅฐ

This text from my introverted friend that works at the same large company as my introverted husband made me laugh.

You know when you see a mom or a dad first thing in the morning on TV? They’re fully dressed and look ready to conquer the world? Why doesn’t anyone show the person tiptoeing around in the dark trying not to wake their family while they get dressed and make coffee?

Good morning.

Finished reading: Abundance by Derek Thompson and Ezra Klein ๐Ÿ“š

Reading any book related to politics now feels like it MUST be out of date, given how quickly things have/are changing in the US. This book though is about how some democratic policies have led to a lot of the struggles we’re having with things like homelessness. It’s a good read.

My daughter recently started watching The X-Files for the first time. ๐Ÿ“บ I haven’t watched it since it first aired and I didn’t watch all of it so I’m rewatching it now. Every episode has a moment of “Whoa, it’s that person!” or “Wait, who is that?” immediately followed by “Wow, they are so young!”

The cat takes advantage of the recliner every time I try to work there. He’s pretty cute, but then every once in a while he tries to lick his neck hairs which get stuck in his mouth because they’re too long. :laughing: Am I supposed to trim them??

Bored looking cat staring off camera.

Does he look annoyed or bored to you?
