We have a new payroll company. We didn't get paid today. I came in to work and the overnight crew hadn't finished preparing our shipments. My work phone is at 0%. My truck is in the shop, so I'm driving a sub. It has the same issues, so 400 miles & no cruise control today. Time to go to #work.

A local gas station chain is unhappy that trucks are coming in and filling up and getting rewards points, so they have throttled back the diesel pumps to feed at less than 1.3 OUNCES per second. This is real time. 👇

Feeling kind of shitty this evening. 😞 Things just feel big and overwhelming. 😓🙃🫠 I feel like I just want to curl up under a warm blanket, and do nothing.

Mark it zero, Donny.

This is how I learned of the outcome of the game.

..and introducing Lily (a family member debut here on bsky, I believe), the household biscuit maker.

@asphalt2air.bsky.social Just read the thread 😅

I can't believe they scheduled the Olympics I'm not going to watch and the Super Bowl I'm not going to watch on the same weekend. The nerve.

Currently 0° F outside. Went full-regalia to fill the 🐦‍⬛ feeders. Furnace set to 69 and struggling to get the bedroom over 66 while the living room is @ 57. Kitchen & LR space heaters running. Wearing the heated hoodie indoors. Looking forward to Tuesday's break in the temps. MEANWHILE 1/3

If I'm paying $8.60 for a slice of supreme, you had better bet your bottom dollar that I'm going to eat every crumb and piece of vegetable that falls off the slice into the box.

Early #Caturday special: The Dinner Wanter.

The president has openly called for the Republican Party to "take over" elections. Is that sufficiently unconstitutional yet, or are we still "overreacting"?

Well this can't be good.

Perfectly comfortable, in her lane, no thoughts, just... ...okay not even vibes, really... She's been caught snoring twice in this position. #smöldawg

Just here for the ratio, folks.

Hey, everyone! Come visit Western New York in the winter! Our weather is great! It's gonna be... ...uh... ... 😑 Listen. If you don't like it, just wait five minutes and it'll change.

Two things I'm desperately trying to eradicate from my TL - v0r3 posts, which can't entirely be eliminated w/ keyword blocking, and people who enjoy rp as p*pp!3s and d*gs. I should be able to enjoy the randomness of the Discover feed AND not see content I've no interest in. Blocklists, anyone?

When you're a fuzzyboi forced to spend #caturday in the company of a sister.

Dopamine is done, serotonin is low, we have no cookies, I found the shoes I wanted for cheap on eBay, I still have to buy air filters for the car, I want to bake cookies but am likely short some ingredients, lunch should definitely be a thing, and it's probably gonna be a two-layer PB&J. #dayoff

If I had thought to defrost the sausage I could be having my favorite dirty rice recipe tonight. If I had added the cookies to the list I'd have remembered to buy them. Leftover stew doesn't sound great rn and neither does an oatmeal cream pie.

Just waiting on the fabricated reports of record revenues.

I want a Windows laptop to be able to send/rcv texts - including group texts - through an iPhone. MightyText doesn't support iOS Intel Unison is kaput Microsoft Phone Link doesn't support group texts KDE Connect doesn't support notifications on iOS I don't need remote control or bulk messaging.

KILL THE HEADLIGHTS AND PUT IT IN NEUTRAL!!

THE BIRDIES KEEP EMPTYING ALL THE FEEDERS THEY ARE SUCH HUNGRY NIBBLERS ON A CHILLY SNOWY DAY 😭

Our government is murdering the citizens of this country. They are doing it without any checks on their violence

I have spent my entire adult life being lectured by Republican politicians and conservative legal movement types about how important it is to preserve the sacred constitutional right to self-defense of *specifically this person* and then secret police murdered him in the street

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

man oh man our old backup generator is a BEAST 😃 Part of every STAR refund we get goes to a preventive maintenance to keep it healthy (the other part goes to a PM for our old furnace), and it just kicked on for exercise in -2°. A little rough, to be expected... but she's rollin'! 👍🤓

It's hard to shake the feeling that nothing anyone in this corrupt administration does will ever cost them voters or result in criminal convictions.

In #ROC, we have two general weather conditions: Overcast and warm or sunny and bright and too fuckin' cold. Today is the latter. While I want to go out and fill the feeders, it is 9° and breezy. There are things to do, and vegetating seems to be my priority.

Talking about my octogenarian father when he laughs at a Very Online meme:

Two people you should never trust; A religious leader who tells you how to vote, and a polition who tells you how to pray.

Visiting my brother this weekend. He loves his #pibble. 🥹 (We love her, too. 🥰)

I prefer presidents who don’t joke about canceling elections.

Being an adult means knowing to go potty before boarding because there's no reason to get out of your window seat on a two hour direct flight. Especially if, y'know, you drank a lot of coffee this morning.

Quit talking about Trump. Address everything, every issue to Miller and Vought. Make Trump irrelevant, his ego will not let him be out of the spotlight and you’ll see Miller and Vought removed and the rest of the administration collapse.

Dictators often suspend cellphone networks during launches of their illegal and deadly activities. In an "unrelated note"(?), Verizon and AT&T are suffering widespread outages in Raleigh, NC. 🤔
