Thinking of what custom license plate to get on the RS 5. VITAMIN-R won't fit so I might just go with MALK.

A screen grab from
The Simpsons of a milk container except it's labelled malk. Now with Vitamin R

Nabbed this new old stock clock radio that has a DETACHABLE tape deck. Take your waking tunes on the go!! Love it!

A black clock radio with blue and white accents and red clock digits. There are 2 round knobs for tuning and volume and several buttons for adjusting the time and alarm. There is a detachable tape deck on the right side that says STEREO in large white letters.

When William Hung was rejected by the American Idol judges, he responded with "I already gave my best and I have no regrets at all." Fantastic mindset. Legend.

This art installation near building 7 is pretty slick.

An outdoor art exhibit consists of a dozen vertical poles. Attached to each pole are some panels that when viewed at the correct angle, makes a large brown 7

I like unique cars: cars that you see on the road and go "oh wow, I haven't seen one of those before / in a while!" I'd say Cybertrucks are the only exception except they aren't unique anymore. I see 5+ a day...

Why is it so hard to do things outside of work? Like, I need to find a new primary care physician and I'd rather eat glass. Where's the personal assistant SAAS?

What's the current definition of "vibe coding" anyway? I always thought it meant "I have little experience and I'm not really sure what I'm doing, so I'll trust the LLM and spend no time reviewing its output and hope for the best."

I've had chronic chest and back pain for 2 years with no definitive answers from doctors or physical therapists. Spent thousands on misdiagnoses. I'm gonna be pissed if what I did today fixed it, which was lying down on the floor with a $2 dog toy ball under my shoulder, and felt something release.
