Woof! This could almost be my pack if @growlph.greywolf.social was a wolf not a goat ;) @howlwind.greywolf.social

Apple.. how does Time Machine suck SO FUCKING HARD?

Spotify.. are you okay? 🤔

Oops wrong gloryhole

$9 for a Pepsi. Goddamn. Paramount is still out of their mind. It’s cheaper at the airport. #Seattle

I bet on the next screen they’re gonna try to convince me to try Edge.. You s hould t ry Micr osoft Edg e the ne w brows er desig ned to render w ebpages beauti fully

Just over here doing YET MORE democracy, writing Congress because one of the Congresscritters has proposed yet another stupid law - S.3283 - forcing dual citizens to give up their foreign citizenships or be stripped of their American citizenship. Doubt it goes anywhere, but speaking up anyway..

If we were flying Alaska we could rely on their famous ‘20 minutes or it’s probably at a different baggage carousel’ guarantee #SeaTac

Also the airport security guy here couldn’t fathom that I wear a chain I can’t remove. ‘Oh just put it in the tray!’ I can’t.. ‘Wait what do you mean, you can’t? Just take it off!’ Literally can’t, it’s padlocked, dude.

Canada’s airport security takes itself REALLY seriously. I’ve never heard a TSA officer use the phrase ‘care and custody’ when passing me to a colleague. Dude I’m not in your custody, you work for Paladin Security, lol.

“Your flight has been delayed.. Your flight has been delayed.. Your flight has been delayed..” WestJet sucks.

The worst part of an airport lounge is check in because no matter what card or boarding pass you present it’s WRONG. ‘Oh sorry we don’t take the Amex Platinum, only the super Amex Centurion lounge. First class? Oh, you only get lounge if your flight is 2100 miles. Yours is 2096. Fuck off, pleb.’

Are we seriously the only people in this theatre for Zootopia 2?

America would’ve been so much better off if the TikTok ban had happened.

This Westjet plane is old as fuuuck.

Bougie first world problems - the Amex lounge was full with a half hour waiting list. Bougie opinion - it’s because they give Amex cards to anyone these days. Even I have two, lol, and I’m poor af.

Riding the light rail to SeaTac and wow there’s so many ugly 5 over 2 apartments in Othello/Rainier Beach. Hey developers, painting part of the ugly cube red or blue doesn’t make it nicer.

Don’t get it wrong!

Oh, I saw Lilliputian Hallucinations when they opened for Infected Mushroom back in 2014!

Sent letters to my state Senator and Representatives tonight. And got a reply from our US Senator on a different matter. Aww yeah, political engagement..

Ooooh, do Washington next! Too many hoopties and daily drivers with ‘Collector’s Vehicle’ tags.

Holy shit the line for returns is like 40 deep at Whole Foods. If Amazon wanted to single handedly change climate change they could stop letting people return so much shit and landfilling it.

I think the worst part of my GLP-1 medication is that it's made coffee taste disgusting to me 🤢 It tastes metallic and watery. Also, wow do I ever notice sugar in everything now. Delivery pizza is like eating cake with pizza toppings on it. On the upside, wow I'm losing a lot of weight. -20 pounds!

Today I learned our Samsung microwave can turn its light off while it’s running. It’s so weird!

Also, offering free credit monitoring because of a data breach is a fucking copout, given that EVERY financial institution offers free credit monitoring. Though it's still better than the 'settlement' I got from ParkMobile for a data breach that was $1, redeemable in 25c increments towards parking.

"We had a data breach and gave away all your personal info! Here, have some free credit monitoring!" is ironic when the company that had the breach has your information because of free credit monitoring in the first place..

Oh no, my storage cloud be nearly full!

I am the most tired I’ve ever been. This weekend was a roller coaster. My therapist is gonna earn her copay next week.

1) Fuck Air Canada and 2) You know, for an extra $3000 I'd just take my chances on the nonrefundable ticket..

Good god car insurance is expensive these days. Geico offering me $5000 a year like ‘lol we saved you money!’ Fuck.

I feel like I ate too much tonight because I made pasta and it was really good so I had an extra scoop. Maybe I’ll still see the scale go down a little bit tomorrow though.

A drawing from 2016 which feels relevant for my American friends today

Oh no, Google's training AI on my emails*.. does anyone use email for anything anymore? What year is it? *They aren't. Relax.

Apple's Time Machine pisses me off. Finicky, offers very little feedback, troubleshooting is usually 'Delete your instance and start over'. Takes ALL DAY to work. Acronis? Backs up at wire speed in like 45 minutes. Gives you status updates. Error messages that mean something. Fuckin' refreshing.

@timban.greywolf.social recently asked an LLM a tech support question forgetting that it was still in gooning mode and it produced the single best thing that I've ever read.

We get to fly in a couple days amid the government shutdown and it makes me miss Canada - when the government can’t agree on a budget the government dissolves and an election happens. We REALLY need that here.

If you watch American Werewolf in Paris at 2x speed, do you get to see a Fast Furrier Transform? 🤔

What kind of person puts a gym right next door to a fried chicken shack? Grrrrr.

The problem with insulated coffee mugs is I want a coffee at 8:30am, but by like 3pm it’s still too hot to drink.

holding babies

Pretty sure “prior auth” is insurance-speak for “Fuck off and die, it’s cheaper for us”

Every time I have to interact with a pharmacy here in WA I’m reminded how much I miss Canada.

Back in my day, digging through ditches and burning through witches were two separate jobs. Union jobs, no less. These days if you want to get slammed in the back of a dragula you have to download some lousy app.

Muting the President's name on Bluesky has made Bluesky almost enjoyable again..

How does Apple’s Time Machine suck so bad? 9 hours to make a differential backup once a day is absurd. Especially when more often than not it fails with network issues.

SMS messages are a hell of spam. I wish I could just disable texting on my phone.
