USPS: “We’re broke, stamps need to go up another 20¢.” Also USPS: My package went Providence → Springfield → Providence → Springfield, adding roughly 175 completely unnecessary miles on a tour of New England to its journey. Have we considered just… sending shit toward its destination?
SPS tracking history showing a package accepted in North Kingstown, Rhode Island on Sept. 29, then traveling Providence, RI → Springfield, MA → Providence, RI → Springfield, MA before departing Springfield on Oct. 1. Despite the back-and-forth routing, USPS lists it as “In Transit, Arriving On Time” with expected delivery Oct. 2.

I wanted to tag them but I guess Rollo is too cool for BlueSky 😆

My postage printer is developing a personality and I don’t like it. I like my Rollo printer for the most part, but the self-congratulatory label wasting could go. I bought this thing to print postage, not to watch it stroke its own ego every time it updates.
A white printed label on a wooden surface reads, “Update Complete! They said I couldn’t get better. They were wrong,” followed by checkmarks for faster performance, security updates, and various fixes and improvements.

At least yours are dancing. Mine formed a multidisciplinary care team and apparently their only patient is Satan. Hopefully the DJ cuts the music sooner than later. 💛

I’m working on it. Turns out “there really should be a tool for that” is a dangerous sentence around me 😆 It’s already correcting my mistakes and a little unnerving.

I’ve been a little quiet lately. Buried in a project that has evolved a few times and has become my fav project yet. #MS has a way of reminding you that your brain isn’t always playing on the same difficulty level so I set out to build something to eliminate some friction. 🤓 🧡

The garmin vivosmart 5 isn’t a watch has a small screen though. The Polar Loop doesn’t have a screen and doesn’t have a subscription. But yeah, that space in the market is pretty slim.

They are good at buying up good product ecosystems, trying to fold them into one of their existing services, pissing off all the existing users and ultimately running it into the ground.

Mia had a service training session today. After 45 min she snuck away to find a cool, quiet place to nap under the shrubs. I do the same thing when the #MS fatigue hits. Although, I try to avoid the whole crawling under the shrubs part 😆
Tan-and-white Staffordshire Terrier passed out asleep under arborvitae shrubs after service dog training, stretched out on cool dirt/gravel in the shade with eyes closed and looking completely exhausted.

Yeah, having to self diagnose sucks. Because when you finally do get an appointment, you have to pretend you don’t already know what the problem is so the guy getting paid to figure it out doesn’t have his fragile ego hurt 🤓

Should have wished for a pseudo pregnancy instead 🙊 Wonder if that’s a new buzz classification in some dumb medical magazine. I was told the same thing a few months ago when everything was just bang out of order. Took a solid 2 week to clear up and go back to my broken normal.

It use to be “Ugh here comes the fatigue, time to call it a day”. To “Ugh here come the fatigue” followed by projectile vomiting before I can even sit down”. Fun stuff 🙈

Haven’t been on much the last few weeks. Been working on getting beehives ready. Cleaning, painting setting level pads for them. Still a lot to do but it’s taking a lot longer than it use to. The MS decided it wanted the main character role in this saga. 🙄

By analyzing levels of the protein sNfL in blood serum, researchers at @ucl.ac.uk have identified two distinct subtypes of multiple sclerosis (MS), which appear to progress at different rates and begin in different brain regions. #MultipleSclerosisResearch #MSResearch
Research Discovery: Multiple sclerosis may have two distinct subtypes.Diseases Affected: Multiple sclerosis (MS).Key Findings: By comparing a blood-based biomarker (a protein called sNfL) and MRI scans and using AI modeling, scientists have identified two separate biological patterns for MS, based on the stage at which the protein is detected in the blood serum. What’s Next? If this discovery is validated in further studies, it could help doctors provide more customized treatment for patients, depending on which subtype of MS they have and the stage of its progression.

Interesting take on Gen-X physiology — feels accurate. Grew up unsupervised taking apart TVs, VCRs, Atari, kitchen appliances… then got yelled at/hit with a belt, wooden spoon, or that wooden beach chair arm that every house seemed to have. Wouldn't trade it for anything 😂 youtu.be/G5YmIqYSqA0

I also have issues with temp regulation. It gets to be so annoying. For me (we all are different) a quick hot shower usually resets it for awhile. But sadly that’s about all that helps.
