I just want to study in an old library and take my tea in my quarters at half noon and listen to the rain on the windows and stroll through the arboretum and compare notes with my peers and uncover ancient campus secrets and build lifelong bonds but instead I have to work a desk job :(

Watching this (or various of it) each morning has been a great way to start my day.

Literally just finished S2 E1. We'll be done with S2 just in time for 3. :)

I know what you are doing. 🙂❤️

I just started The Mimicking of Known Successes. :D

A photograph of a river in winter. The banks and rocks in the water are covered with a few feet of snow and the river appears to come out of a forest of dark green coniferous trees. there is a snow covered mountain in the background and fluffy clouds in the bright blue sky.

A photograph of a snow covered mountain ridge under blue a blue sky. There is snowy meadow and pine forest in the foreground and there are clouds that resemble ocean waves blowing over the mountains.

@kippy.geminai.com and I went for a snowshoe hike along the river in Hope Valley yesterday and an drive over Carson Pass. Here are a few of the photos I got.

I'd choose cream cheese.

I think either works.

It's a word that most of us first encountered while reading. Since English is at least 3 languages in a trench coat so rules are really suggestions, we each had to make our own best guess on how to pronounce it.

A photograph of a snowy high-desert valley. In the foreground is sagebrush and a light (1-2 inches) layer of snow. Beyond that is a valley with a medium sized city (Reno, NV) and snow covered mountain range beyond that. The sky is bright blue with big puffy clouds.

Today's view from where I work.

@malwarevangelist.com how is "gif" pronounced?

"The Human's world ends soon," said the cat.

"Again?" said the dog.

"They are fond of endings and beginnings. Even if nothing changes."

The dog whined.

"Same procedure as last year?" said the cat.

"Please."

The cat lay on the dog's head and purred, muffling the fireworks.

One day something will happen — a wedding, a graduation, a job promotion, Jake Paul getting knocked out, Andrew Tate getting knocked out the next day — and you’ll want the right outfit to celebrate. Buy that special outfit now, so you’re ready when that next unexpected moment arrives.

So you'd have elf toes (and legs) peeking out of your Topeak bag?

I only notice it when I touch the right spot, so it's not persistent or annoying or anything. Every few months I'll bump it just right and remember it and maybe play with it for a minute or so before I continue with whatever I was doing.

I hope yours either goes away or is no more bothersome.

I have something similar. I had a head injury 35 years ago that required several stitches. Ever since it healed, if I touch a particular spot on my hairline, I "feel" it about 1-2 inches away. I'm guessing some nerve pathways got crossed as I was healing.
