Thoughts Before Bed.

It's not often I have an Ah Ha! moment these days, but I'm glad they can still happen. Many puzzle pieces came together tonight and allowed me to understand a friend in a whole new way. ❤

So with everything going on these last two weeks, I was too busy to buy the weekly groceries and have been living off restaurant food and leftovers. I'm out of both today, and most everything here closes at 9:00PM, so you know what that means.

TIME TO CRACK OPEN AN MRE!

This is why I buy them. Emergency food, for Big Emergencies, and Tiny Emergencies, like today.

Today's was absolutely a "Breakfast for Dinner" MRE as well. And is ALMOST the oldest MRE I've ever eaten as this was packed back in October 2018 (five and a half years!).

It was actually REALLY good, the standouts being the blueberry coconut granola cereal (makes it's own milk!), and the hash browns while not crispy cause that's hard to do in an MRE, was super tasty. The apple turnover tasted a bit artificial, and the peanuts were ABSOLUTELY showing their age. The crackers and cheese are crackers and cheese.

Can't complain. I enjoyed it. Not bad for a nearly six year old meal!

Does anybody else do this when needing to use a mouse between taking notes?

Or are you sane and just put the pen down?

Purple Curtain

The second night of the geomagnetic storm was better weather-wise, but there was much less activity during the short time I was outside. It was almost invisible to the naked eye and could only be seen with a camera. But I am thrilled to have been able to photograph the aurora without having to travel hundreds of kilometers to Scandinavia!

Just a reminder, if you're in a state without access to abortion, there is a network of care, providing safe, effective, and free abortion pills and information.

I don't have a ton of faith in humanity, but I do appreciate how we've all decided to side with the orcas in the Great Orcas vs. Boats War. An orca could literally bite my arm off tomorrow and I would still be team orca.

NEW: JK Rowling has become so toxic even fellow transphobes and self-identified moderates are distancing themselves from her.

That's right, today I've been writing about the latest Rowling psychodrama, and what to make of it. #trans #news #journalism

So, how soon before we discover that Kovich from Star Trek: Discovery is Richard Belzer's John Munch and he is immortal force of nature?

I feel like very recently— like, the last month— Google has gotten *massively* worse about. Like look at this search where I search for the wiki for the C# game library FNA, and Google simply decides, without even offering a "Did you mean…", that it would be more interesting if I had instead been looking for "FNAF"
