Like a mayfly emerging from the water in front of a hungry frog.
This weekend I'm going camping in an area under red flag warnings.
I won't be able to make coffee.
I'll have to bring some cold brew.
Desperate times call for desperate plans
100,000 years ago, evolution decided that confusing boredom with hunger was a good thing because gathering berries and hunting mammoth for something to do was actually beneficial. Now that we have fridges, super markets and high calorie snacks packed in mylar... evolution is still thinking she's right.
@Alfred can you give me the lyrics to "Hook" by Blues Traveler?
Hollywood and dystopian novels have shown us a possible future.
Ones that we're now primed to expect.
Ones that are still highly unlikely. Ones that would take decades to create.
That won't stop them from happening.
But it gives us time.
Time to get over the shock. (And please, take as much time as you need.) But time to fight this the right way. Time to work toward a better world. Time to /gently/ steer the hearts of your neighbor. Time to run for town council. Time to teach.
This is important!
Mad Elf is back on the supermarket shelves!
"none" is the exact wrong amount of bacon to be put on a salad.

I am not trying to be a downer. Yet awareness is important.
Hope can be a hinderance.
Not always. But be aware.
“Do not depend on the hope of results. You may have to face the fact your work will be apparently worthless and achieve no result at all, if not perhaps at times bring about its opposite. As you get used to this, you start more and more to concentrate not on the results, but on the value, the rightness and the truth of the work itself.”
~ Thomas Merton
Halloween leftovers, stress, lack of sleep and *points vaguely at the world* THIS has not done wonders for my health.
I was on a good track, but this is after two days
☕
A full night's sleep can make a world of difference.
TFW, you go into the fridge to grab a snack and all that's there is kale.
I need to stock queso fresca and cojito
Again for the people in back.
Democracy is not fragile. It's not an idyllic crystal statue.
It's malleable, it's a work in progress, it's clay on a potter's wheel. Yes, somebody can come along and smash the work we've put into it, but we remember how to make it again.
It can be fixed with time and effort. As long as people are there to do the work, we can fix it.

Doom paralysis is a choice.
It is warm and fuzzy, and allows one to rage instead of take action.
Act locally,
Walk around your neighborhood.
Find just one small need, and solve it locally.
Ask others to help.
Don't ask permission.
Find out what works by talking to the people your helping.
Be flexible, iterate, start over. Repeat.
No grand plan.
No big ideas.
And now, somebody changed/revoked permissions on a production service account.
I can't wait until the weekend
It's been a long held belief of mine that you never grow untill you're uncomfortable.
It's time to grow. And grow a lot.

In just a few days, I'll be back in nature.
Hopefully without access or any electronics past a GPS.
The only thing I'd wish is that I could start a campfire, but there's too many dry leaves around that area to be safe.
