Yep here it is, 2:21 and I'm just waiting around until 2:30.

NINE MINUTES TO CHECK THE MAILBOX HERE GOES FUN

An increasing part of my lifestyle consists of "pacing around waiting for the meeting that will start in 5-10 minutes". Maybe I need a hobby that can be done in five minute increments.

Other than doomscrolling, I mean.

Just a gutter, we'll live. Did you get your power back on or are you still in the dark? #berkshireliving

The problem with resigning in protest is that eventually the only people who haven't resigned are the ones who are part of the problem

Spectrum: 15 seconds to accidentally sign up on the tv for a "free trial" which starts billing immediately; 30 minutes on the phone with two separate call center reps each with two mandatory upsell attempts and a sixteen digit confirmation code before you're allowed to cancel it.

One of the things about getting older is that you now have more than one kind of back pain available. Today is not the scary debilitating nerve pain but it isn’t just a muscle knot either, it’s more of a skeletal thing

Tried posting a video of the snowstorm but it was coming down so hard the video compression turned it into just a gray blur. So you’ll have to live without my five second clip of a heavy snowstorm. I know it’s disappointing

We finished a roll of postage stamps that was literally my first purchased object after the divorce. So now I know I use an average of eight stamps per year.

UX opinion: if there exists no action a user can take as a result of your user notification, it didn't need to be a notification.

TFW you bust out a new razor and it just gliiiiiiiides

Then the next day you may as well go back to the one you've been using for the past six months because it's already as dull as it's ever going to be
