Needed to return a electronic item to Costco and got it there just under the 90 day limit so it was no problem.

Baseball fever has returned to Seattle for the first time in 20 years. It's a lot of fun to follow and looking forward to watching games.

Finally got around to playing RE2 remake and it owns.

A few years ago the images that accompanied old onion articles were lost, which were critical to many classic stories. Recently they fixed that so that’s good. Bought a bag of pretzel chips that were ok on their own, then I tried dipping them in spicy mustard and got a new go to snack. Hyrax Attack! fucked around with this message at 20:05 on May 28, 2022 |

Trailer for Lower Decks s3 looks to have lots of content from my all time favorite DS9, hoping we get lots of cameos. They gotta get Quark back at least. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMEFo6k3V5c

Have used Cameo twice this year and both times the video was an absolute delight and surprise to the recipient.

Have been watching episodes of the 2001 horror anthology show Night Visions. Pretty hit or miss although with each story only having 20 minutes or so it keeps up a decent pace and fun to play “hey it’s that guy.” Baffling decision to have Henry Rollins host as even he doesn’t seem to know why he’s there, but it is fun when he declares the moral of a story to be “leave strangers alone!” One story stood out as it was both directed by and stars Bill Pullman, and then surprised me by being one of the most fun little horror stories I’d seen in a long while. Don’t want to spoil anything: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7aAY57plRYQ

Got sick of push mower & half busted gas mower & sprung for a self-propelled battery powered mower Costco had on sale. Works great.

Good lil older cat was losing a lot of weight & ultrasound showed a treatable stomach cancer, she’s been on meds for a week and a half and is already a much happier kitty devouring three cans of food a day and being more spry climbing furniture to watch birds.

Had Sony headphones that finally broke too much for duct tape to fix & was relying on Amazon basic fitness headphones that liked to switch to deafening mode without warning, so got wirecutter recommended earbuds at a reasonable price & holy cow that’s an upgrade, I’m late to the party but fun to pop them out of the case and they’re already on without having to fiddle with holding down an on button.

Got around to rewatching Andy Daly’s Review, still amazing & I like the attention to continuity & how James Urbaniak is nudging him to ruin his life. Picking up details like how from the start Daly is out of pocket for all expenses but never questions it even when he’s paying $200k for space tickets or $40k for a five minute cameo. Pancakes Divorce Pancakes is one of the greatest tv eps of all time. Also got around to watching the Onion’s Porkin Across America & that was also great and feels like a Review prequel.

The new RoboCop documentary is incredibly good, when I heard about it I thought it was going to be fans wandering old sets but they got interviews with everyone from the director to main actors and all the staff with tons of new info I didn't know. It's so cool hearing about themes and production stories from Verhoeven, along with absurd trivia like how they called the junior executive back for reshoots just to spend an entire day having squibs go off on his body, or how the SWAT commander was supposed to be two roles but an actor in one of the roles came to Dallas two days early and impressed them enough they gave him both parts. The whole doc is on prime.

Olympics have been fun to watch. I know nothing about break dancing but it is cool to watch, especially how those guys are strong enough to do flips with neck muscles.

Happy turtles! Elderly family member had been declining mentally/physically last few years due to brain fluid issue, I think hydrocephalus & had resigned to expecting it to keep getting worse but doctors gave option of surgery to put in shunt to permanently drain fluid although they didn’t get our hopes up it would be a guarantee of improvement. About two weeks later he doesn’t need walker anymore & is easily getting up & moving around & is mentally so much more with it it’s like night & day. Tons of other stuff like again wanting to read books rather than flip through newspaper & enjoying life. So that’s good.

Difficult relative sent series of weird FB links to seemingly random groups so thought would have to walk them through a password reset possibly involving a meltdown. Turns out no, they really did intend to notify lots of people about a dumb product.

Noticed low pressure light in evening with just enough time to get to tire store before they closed so they could remove a nail & get it patched. Wouldn’t have been fun to discover early in the morning.

Discussion Quorum posted:I found this elsewhere on the forums: some Aussie comedian/streamer is doing a playthrough of GTA4. The twist is he's using a mod that boosts traffic speed by ~1,000% (but the AI is unmodified). I don't know why but it's just the brain bleach I needed. Oh yeah those are amazing, his wrestling game videos are also wonderful with this as my favorite: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHonXbvtcII

Needed to go to urgent care on a Friday evening & wasn’t looking forward to it as previous experiences taking relatives there or to the ER wasn’t much fun. Was pleasantly surprised the place was well organized & professional with barely a wait, & got competent help & within an hour & a half of walking in had a filled prescription in hand.

Cafeteria had perfectly done tater tots. Not underdone & mushy, not deep fried to be a clump, just right.

Great Vietnamese cafe opened nearby, in addition to top tier sandwiches they have made from scratch smoothies & iced coffee. I’ve already completed one customer loyalty punchcard & it won’t be the last.

for me this time since the last time I was here, I was on the verge of changing careers, and was scared but confident it was what I needed to do. I'm happy poo poo worked out the way it did.
