And just dropped the statewide travel ban. As of 7 PM, only emergency vehicles are allowed on the road.

I'm gonna have to eat those words.

In less than a day, the storm track changed. I'm now in the 18-24" range. I honestly don't know where this snow is going to go because there's literally no room for it.

PSA for Discord's new age verification!

If you get hit by it and refuse to give them any ID or face scans as you should, here's a way to just... bypass it.

Go to Settings - Family Centre and then just enter a date of birth that's 18+

It's really that simple. Give them nothing.

So happy this weekend's nor'easter is going to miss me by about 30 miles.

I do feel bad for those NW of me. The snow from two weeks ago has only partially melted...

"...But thank you." 😏 ("...You click-chasing, low-muscle-massed, desk-bound little object who's never done anything competitive with *the whole world watching* in your sad, gray, already-superannuated life.")

I've been out for nearly twenty years and one thing about the LGBTQ community has never changed.

The sense of isolation paired with the need to love or be loved often results in genuine kindness and respect being misinterpreted as romantic interest.

Yikes! If that link is moving people towards Roblox...yuck 🤢

I need to take a shower.

Looks like the search for a Discord replacement is under way, given the ID or face scan bullshit arriving next month. Lots of my groups are leaving end of February.

I knew it wouldn't last forever, but it's sad to see this happen. Definitely do not miss the days of Vent, TS, and Mumble...

I've got to say these egyptian cotton pillowcases I was given as a get well soon gift yesterday have been amazing. I can't remember a night when I haven't had to flip my pillows over to keep my head cool.

I might go look into a sheet set once I feel better!

Ooooooh. A new #Castlevania game...and it looks like a return to it's roots!

Looks like I got the plague.

I rarely get sick. Maybe once or twice, tops a year. But when I do, it's like getting hit by a truck, then run over by a train, and then struck by a meteor within seconds.

It's been a good day for rest and a perfect chance to rewatch Voyager, my favorite Star Trek series.

Yeah, I know. I get a ton of flak for saying that, but I don't care. It truly is my favorite one.

I can hear it in my head.

OHOHOHOHOHO...🤭

The honesty has cost many their jobs over here. Our surveys are not anonymous. Random logins are assigned to each of us on a spreadsheet so there's a paper trail for someone to follow. As such, we tell them what they want to hear out of fear of repercussions.

Today is my one day off anyway. I don't plan on leaving my bed!

Mom has bronchitis and, so far, my symptoms have been nothing like hers. Stuff is going around, so I probably got something from a customer.

I'm going to pick up a test (or two) this morning and see what it says. At this point, I'm not discounting the possibility.

I woke up this morning and was immediately fed a targeted AI weight loss ad when opening the socials. It's horrifying that AI slop is being used to replace licensed dieticians. It's predatory, shameless, and disgusting.

If you zoom in, you can see all sorts of nonsensical words and phrases.

I officially feel like death. Entire body has been achy since Sunday, my energy has dropped significantly, I've been nauseous all day, and I've had a hell of a migraine. No fever yet, but I've also had that tangy, metallic taste in my mouth since this afternoon.

We'll see what the morning brings...

To all my fellow retail workers:

They've been around for a while! Owners moved out here from California and have been slowly expanding. They specialize in physical games and retro consoles.

I went by the local game store, Bowser's Basement, on the way home today and found these wonderful gems. Someone traded in all three Castlevania collections from Limited Run Games!

I missed the window for all of these, but I'm glad I finally have physical copies!
