I am a happy tree... The grass is green, the sky is blue, the sun is shining... Why in the heck does software customer support have to be so incredibly frustrating and nearly incompetent. I have literally worked software customer support before... Seriously, it's not hard to not completely suck.

I am wanting to start playing D&D or another TTRPG with friends but all my friends that play TTRPGs are already in their own long campaigns with their long time groups...

How do people aggregate important news items these days. I try to avoid the news cause it’s full of garbage but I find myself in need to know somewhat what’s happening in the world.

New job has posed some fun and some scary challenges. I’m not a sales oriented person. I don’t like selling things to people unless I believe it’s a choice I would make in their shoes. I just quoted an estimate to upgrade a working system to a client who was hesitant at first and I actually won it!

Just had one of those instances I feel like most if not all parents have. Told my kid to go sit on their potty and pee. Kid doesn’t sit but stands near their potty and pees everywhere but their potty. Not a single drop in the proper spot. Massive mess of bodily waste… so gross

What a wild weekend. My daughter turned 2, my entire network and homelab went down all the while I am trying to plan what my future will look like with another kid on the way. Maybe added too much to my plate all at once but I survived

Can we petition for Dr. Pepper to be added to a list of approved Anti-Depressants? I just think it’s more effective than 90% of the crap out there and it would be nice to have it prescribed and covered by insurance.

The new Mango flavour of #brisk iced tea in my personal opinion is not enjoyable. Bring back the blackberry flavour. That is the personal favourite brisk iced tea flavour but it's so hard to find these days...
