Aiza Seguerraโ€™s piano/vocal cover of Don McLeanโ€™s Vincent literally makes me think acoustic guitar is the wrong instrument for the song

Every week itโ€™s โ€œdo they want people/kids/disabled people/seniors to die?!โ€

And we keep explaining that yes, they do. Yes, they think itโ€™s good when โ€œweakโ€ or marginalized people are eliminated, and they will do anything to encourage that.

And every week somehow itโ€™s a surprise.

We hired a dedicated QA guy at work a while back; by noon on his first day, just from doing regular onboarding crap, heโ€™d found several bugs in the HR/benefits system

Taps the โ€œthis administration is full of eugenicists so yes, they do want people to dieโ€ sign so hard it snaps and shards go scattering everywhere.

And yes, we saw it coming.

I can handle a pause of 2 minutes (just wait) or 1 hour (do something else); but 15 minutes is the fucking worst

Once in a while I have some chore at work where I do a thing, wait 15 minutes for it to take effect, lather, rinse, repeat, and I am miserable the entire time

A PopSocket can make one-handed phone use a lot easier. (So can a smaller phone; but thatโ€™s probably not worth the cost/trouble for just a few weeks, unless you already have a smaller spare phone gathering dust in a drawer)

Screen cap of parodic version of William Blake's "The Tyger" that begins:
Tyger! Tyger! Burning bright
(Not sure if I spelled that right) 
What immortal hand or eye
Could fashion such a stripy guy? 
What the hammer that hath hewn it 
Into such a chonky unit?
Did who made the lamb make thee, 
Or an external franchisee?

I took my newly 1 year old baby to her check-up this morning & she got her MMR, chicken pox, flu & COVID shots. If she's feeling fussy tonight, I'll alternate Tylenol & Motrin, per my pediatrician's rec. How fun that I get to ignore the president & be a good mom (and good citizen) instead.

How to Reinstall Windows 10 on your Dell Computer | Dell US

I have not done this in like a decade, but: it might let you do a factory reset/wipe/reinstall without recovery media (via a secret hidden partition on the hard drive, I think). See the WinRE instructions at this page (#6 in the table of contents)

me, age 15: conservatism seems like a fundamentally evil belief system

me, age 21: actually it is more complicated than that, things are very complicated and everyone has their own way of seeing things. i am very smart

me, age 3x: no i was right the first time nvm

Good luck persuading your doctor!

I am unfortunately allergic to the flu shot??? but I did recently get the new covid vaccine and the MMR. I saw a recommendation somewhere to get the MMR vaccine as an adult unless you are 100% sure you got two doses of it in childhood
