We had a LOT of thunder and lightning. The cats kept looking at me like, β€œCan you PLEASE turn down the sky already?”

Temps are finally dropping in the clavicle of Texasβ€”I actually wore a light jacket into work this morning, and my car tires need to be inflated a bit more.

The Obama Hope poster, but it's a frog and it says "Hop"

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.

And finally, my hair has been cut. My head feels so much lighter now.

I’m trying to finish Typhoon Warning this week so I would appreciate a ping if the Rapture kicks off because *waves at computer*.

Even better, I did it in FreeCAD so we can generate STEP files and mechanical drawings for manufacturing. Seeing as I just started using FreeCAD in June I’m quite pleased with myself.

It’s not a new novel, but I’m still proud of this support tray I designed for a circuit board that allows it to ground on one of the standoffs and has extra spaces for longer pins underneath.

ENOUGH ALREADY, ABUSERS. No more silence. No more threatening victims to save *your* wealth, your power, your professions at the expense of your victims' lives, and any power they'd had before. No more excuses, no more pretense that they wouldn't want to testify, *shouldn't* want to testify

And yes, I checked the original maker. They didn't have CAD files. It was pretty simple to recreate, though--the biggest challenge was the top and bottom curves. But a combo of chamfers and fillets made quick work of that.

Draft versions of a handle for a VeroTec standard board front panel, recreated by yours truly in FreeCAD.

So I just recreated a handle for a 90's computer board front panel. The boy is working on a vintage computer that needs these, and the only source (eBay) charged $60 for 20 in the same size. Since he requires a few in a variety of sizes, enter yours truly with FreeCAD...

Those shiatsu massage pillows with heat are also reeeeeally nice.

This needs a clear liquor, some sort of red liqueur--maybe Grenadine (pomegranate-flavored syrup)--and a juice to make it "dirty." How about coconut rum, pineapple juice, and a Grenadine drizzle? Or gin, Grenadine, and pineapple/lime with a soda fill, kind of a deconstructed Singapore Sling.

I will be doing one personal
Adulting task per day this week. By Friday I should have everything lined up and a HUGE endorphin rush as a result.

I may not have birthed any children, but I’ve taken care of them along with seven furbabies. So I am indulging myself this Mother’s Day with a showing of Sinners, because I deserve it.
