Maybe I'm petty, but right now I'm lauging at every car company who bought in to standardizing to Tesla's supercharging program.

When somebody wants me to do something for them, I will accept, happily or unhappily, being coaxed, cajoled, wheedled, bribed (in any legal manner), shamed, appeals made to my baser instincts, appeals made to my higher motives, and various emotional outbursts.
I will not, however, accept being threatened or blackmailed. If I get any hint of that, I am out. I will walk away. If I am already in an agreement I will quit. Threats are completely unacceptable to me.

You can't tell someone

vote for someone who
will hurt them.
The joy when you can start celebrating May the Fourth a few days early by ordering new Lego stuff. I'm a happy nerd.
Dangit.
Got busy with a work thing and missed a 
. Oh well.
Came in to find my office building completely without power. Thankfully the backup generator to my server room kicked on and the servers are okay. Now just restoring work systems.
Ron Howard directs a documentary on Jim Henson. I'm gonna make snacks and get extra tissues handy.
If you're a public servant, and you're afraid of the public response to your "service", then maybe you're not really serving the pubic.
Starting my Monday off with a realization that I have zero fuck left in my stores. I seem to have run out and failed to restock.
This site is funded solely by the people who use it. Zero corpo eddies go into this place. Be a choom and support if you can.
Starting a little early today to do some Galactic Seasons content.
Then continuing with the Republic Trooper story line.
We're $60 away from the next giveaway for St. Jude Play Live.
Come join the most Positive Sith Lord on Twitch.
To celebrate the day, I am playing the 1979 Theatrical Release version of "Alien". That is, after spending 30 minutes fixing my PS4. Only reason I still have it is that it plays Blu-Ray disks.
"But that's what my client wants."
Really? YOU'RE the lawyer. Basically, the grown up in this situation. Your client, while certainly in line to express their desires, is not in charge here. Don't let your client run amok then just shrug your shoulders.
"I didn't like the previous outcome" is not a basis to ask for a new trial. No lawyer worthy of the title should ever submit that.
IMO, not enough lawyers get punished severely enough for such garbage to even being to discourage it.

It's amazing how much e-mail I used to get on the daily from my previous work code. But now that I'm fully on my new code, with my old equipment turned in, I was able to be removed from 2 distribution lists.
I went from my day starting with 100+ unread...to 8.
When I think about you I flag myself.
Up, at work, and dealing with a significant lack of sleep. But I'm here, doing my thing, and working through the difficulties. Also, I find moving helps with the physical pain, so there will be more of that.
