Waiting an hour for a blood test. That means a fifteen hour fast I'm meaning to break with gusto.

I'm in in the Wellburton neighborhood of Bellevue. Do I get sushi or pho? Something else you'd recommend?

NOW I'm finally tired. That's great and all. But I gotta be up in three hours, so, I hope you enjoyed an extra hour or so of web browsing, body, cause you're gonna be a wreck when I wake up.

Well, I've been tossing and turning for three hours in bed. I may as well just stay awake and call the Doctor really wants to do a full health exam with very little (if any) sleep.

If there's no exam, I'll just stay awake till I fall asleep.

Been a long time since I've seen a sunrise.

Well that's something I can talk to the doctor about: insomnia.

Thoughts Before Bed

"And if the dam breaks open many years too soon,
"If there is no room upon the hill,
"And if your head explodes with dark forbodings too,
"I'll see you on the dark side of the moon."

SEATTLE FOLKS!

So I'm going into Bellevue for a Doctor's Appointment tomorrow. I'll also be fasting for twelve (or more) hours beforehand which means I'll be hungry after the appointment.

Where should I go?

Was hoping to finish up the Games Database today, but my goodness, the Nintendo Switch games. Between everything NOA gave us and the game collections, it makes up nearly (if not over) 50% of my games collection.

Jenn: "Brain, please pull up the name of that site where people donate money to get projects started?"
Brain: "Kneesnapper."
Jenn: "Kneesnapper?"
Brain: "Wait....no...kneeslapper. Knee...KICKSTARTER."
Jenn: "......thank you."

Fediverse Meta 

The Mastodon.LOL shutdown exposes serious weaknesses of the Fediverse.

From my perspective, it is:
- A community destroying itself as it argues over ideological purity
- A single admin's problems leading to a major server closure

Arguments over ideological purity, combined with server defederation etc., fracture and weaken the network.

In the worst case, this exclusionary extremism that says "If you don't completely agree with me, you are my enemy" could destroy the fediverse.

It took four years to develop because the cauliflower was pro LGBT and that had to be genetically engineered out of it.

Don't eat Chick-Fil-A. Popeye's has a better sammich anyways.

It's amazing what you can get done when you're trying not to panic over your future, she said looking at her new Video Game Shrine Games Database.

Oh THERE'S the paycheck. I spent all day in a near panic....

A little concerned that my "paycheck" hasn't shown up in my bank account. Officially it has until Friday, but it's never not gone in on Wednesday....

Thoughts before bed:

Just took a quick Google Maps trip down 37th Street in Austin. That year and change there in 2001 were probably the best time in my life. Just me, Dean, Hyde Park, Good Culture, Good Food, Good Friends, Good times.

Then the Dot Com bust happened, I lost it all, and I don't think I've really ever been happy since.

Damn, I miss those days.

Messed with the shortwave. Got a nice clear Radio New Zealand. If I can get that 100 foot long wire antenna put up and not have anyone notice, I'll likely get more.

Actuially played some video games today. Rare that happens. Can still beat Kintaro with Kitana in MK2. Not flawless, but not bad for not playing anything at all for a few months.

I'm not a big fan of the State of the Union addresses from either party because they're usually a bunch of platitudes and feel good declarations that don't actually do anything in the end. But I gotta say, the heckling really pissed me off.
