Not EVERYTHING sucks. This heart-shaped (squint and use your imagination) mesemb is all, “Hi!,” and loves you.

I was raised in an atheist household, tho’ we did get Easter baskets pretty much as an excuse for my (raised Jew-ish) mom to have chocolate in the house. Def. no bunny money.

So if AI Psychosis is a thing that happens because the human mind breaks when it's trapped by a sycophant who affirms every thought, agrees with every delusion - does this give us a window into what's been happening into the ultra rich , and why they're such broken people?

I honestly wish there was a way to mute images that don't have alt text. How are you a journalist and not using alt text. It's absurd.

Played once with my own grandma. Her depiction of a “king size bed” was…a rectangle. 😄

About This Project Once upon a time, I had a side job working for an estate sale company. While organizing one particularly disarrayed house in preparation for a sale, we came across a small cedar chest packed with y…

The "With All My Love, Jim" project will be (publicly) 10 years old on Sunday, and it feels simultaneously like that isn't possible and also like it was even longer ago. withallmylovejim.wordpress.com/about/

Still reasonable (I suppose), but yeah, yeesh. A new experience for me upon moving to this city: one company for water, another for sewer, a third for storm water. But at the end of the day, my tap water flows clean and my wastewater disappears, so the system seems convoluted but works!

I’m a huge fan of infrastructure and of paying the people who work hard to keep it running, but the 50% rate hike on the annual bill was a surprise.

Bruce Springsteen - Streets Of Minneapolis (Official Audio)
Bruce Springsteen - Streets Of Minneapolis (Official Audio) YouTube video by Bruce Springsteen

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Another friend put it to me like this: "ICE has made the classic Nazi mistake. They've invaded a winter people in the winter."

Photo of new, pink blossoms blooming on a viburnum shrub. The lowers are sharp and clear, with the grey-brown woody stems in soft focus.

On the one hand, ooh pretty, the viburnum is starting to bloom.

On the other hand, it’s January.

I can't vouch for the current build quality, but I have two KitchenAid stand mixers—one from the 1950s and one from the 1990s—and both are still going strong. I realize this "advice" is 30 years out of date…

I searched an old phone # to see who/what it might be assigned to now. Apparently, it's never been reassigned, and also, I'm an account exec (ha!) for "MGH Boulder," whatever that might be. Among the many addresses associated with me, the only correct ones were pre-1992. I guess my privacy is safe?

Colorado passed a law to keep wipes out of pipes. That isn’t stopping you nasties Wipes are the enemy for wastewater workers.

It’s been over two years since Colorado passed a law meant to keep people from flushing wipes down toilets. But that hasn’t fully stopped the pipe-clogging practice.

We replaced our Whirlpool with a Bosch 100 from Costco. It's ridonk* quiet, and has been doing a great job since (checks receipt) Nov 2023.
*It can be difficult to tell if it's already running; this low-budget model doesn't have the floor light that shows when it's on.

Upon reflection, this -is- how rounding—to the nearest .05—works, but there must be a better way to word it!

A sign posted at the cash register at Dairy Queen reads, "All cash transactions will be rounded to the nearest nickel. Transactions ending in 1, 2, 6, or 7 will be rounded down. Transactions ending in 3, 4, 8, or 9 will be rounded up."

This is not how rounding works. #DairyQueen
