@Graci ooof.. I've had it in the bed too, though not recently, since "my" cat has passed. My hubby's cat has taken to sleeping with me (we're temp in separate beds, because we're in a different house) and he's a *very* loud piker. No sleeping through it. Lol

Building a Quantum Computing Lab in - you'll be able to watch over my shoulder while I take on RSA encryption using IBM Quantum Computing Platform. And I do mean literally watch me coding, live, and real-time on a virtual computer inside . And it's all hooked up to IBM. We're gonna change the world Marty! 🤔

Meh. Cat puked at 3am beside the bed...

I'm tired.

I feel like, when people realize they don't need either Daddy, or Me, or any of the other boogeymen they use to justify their lives and choices (that they are the authority to judge their own), they're finally ready to try and make grownup decisions.

People credit and blame gods and monsters for the gods and monsters that dwell within.

You cannot master what you won't own up to.

@Ellis564 May want to hold off on the COVID, since there's a new bivalent coming next month. :)

If your answer to gun violence or any other problem is, "Pray to God for him to intervene," you have no place in .

Leave governance to those of us who comprehend reality and actually want to solve problems.

@chromogirl I have been *trying* to get my husband to watch Schitt's Creek, but he finds it too cringy. I keep trying to get him to hold on til it gets better, but he's being very resistant. lol

But yes, I agree with you! I watch West Wing usually at least annually, because it's the best show ever made. lol

Late, late meeting last night for a convention I help run. Didn't get done til 11pm. I'm kinda dragging today. Oof.

@chromogirl I do that all the time with my hubby. Most of the shows we watch together, I've already watched a least one season. Lol

I've decided to put a name to my personal philosophy: refrigeratarianism. It basically consists of random moments of meditation while holding the refrigerator door open and staring blankly inside.

@yadayadayada @SECRET_ASIAN_MAN it's also a product of free accounts not being able to send DMs.

Today a trans friend of mine held on for a hug longer than she usually does. She then began to cry into my shoulder and choked “Thank you that you at least try to understand me”.

It broke my heart. I just want to scream “People are suffering! People you love are suffering! Stop buying into the rhetoric that dehumanizes good people!”.

Good morning, CoSo! I have a ton to do today. Dragging myself out of my cozy bed is first. Oof.

How us your day looking?

I've been online since before the net was public. Long before AOL, when it was mostly libraries and just a few colleges.

I remember when the net was "empty" and people could only be found in pockets of communities that were built around commonalities and curiosity. When if there were more than 10 people on at one time in the same online space, it was a real party. 🎉🤣

I've been a participant, a moderator, and an OP when that stood for operator, not original poster 🤣

At the ortho, about to get a needle to the knee. Second of a 3 shot series. Whee.

My lovelies, it's 2023, we are not making ourselves smaller so someone else can feel big. That's a very 1900's thing and we're a couple decades past that.
We can respect boundaries without devaluing ourselves to fit someone's misconceptions about us.
