jeffse.bsky.social @jeffse.bsky.social · 30/04/2026I used to have the same recurring dream! The exact class was vague, but always "forgot I was enrolled until the final" and showing up for the final. Terrifying. I earned a Masters in mathematics, so maybe it's a side-effect of graduate school? 000

When having a lunch with anyone who worked at law firm, corp, embassy, *newspaper* I had to document that I'd paid exactly my share of the bill. ("No free lunch" policy.) At some formal event dinners, had to calculate fair-market cost of my serving, and reimburse it 15423123

jeffse.bsky.social @jeffse.bsky.social · 02/12/2025After reading the book Forrest Gump, I can say that it is now the second book I've read where the movie was better. The Princess Bride is the other example. 000

jeffse.bsky.social @jeffse.bsky.social · 25/09/2025I tried the pumpkin spice latte at Starbucks this week and was underwhelmed. It wasn't bad, but it didn't taste like coffee at all. I'll stick to my regular lattes or my new fave, an oatmilk cortado. 000
jeffse.bsky.social @jeffse.bsky.social · 20/09/2025I had no problems getting my Covid-19 vaccine today. I said I was eligible (even if RFK Jr doesn't think so) and it's still covered by insurance. Get yours while you still can! 000

Kruse @kevinmkruse.bsky.social · 15/09/2025If the right *truly* believed Charlie Kirk was a defender of free speech and someone who was fine with dissenting opinions, they wouldn't be engaged in a massive campaign to punish anyone who didn't "mourn him properly." They clearly know all of that is bullshit. Only the media was conned. 375122522765
jeffse.bsky.social @jeffse.bsky.social · 23/08/2025I'll agree to your point that I'm less socially normal than average. I don't know if that was the homeschooling or if I was always that way. 010
jeffse.bsky.social @jeffse.bsky.social · 23/08/2025I'll be a counterexample as someone who was homeschooled for four years, but my reason was probably different than most others: the public schools in Fresno were terrible and couldn't teach me as fast as I was ready to learn. Then I started college at 14 and kept on going. 110
jeffse.bsky.social @jeffse.bsky.social · 30/07/2025Watched "The Goonies" in the movie theater last night with my family and loved it! Even the kids thought it was a good movie (for an oldie). Definitely watching on the big screen was an improvement. 010
jeffse.bsky.social @jeffse.bsky.social · 21/07/2025About 30 years ago, I would check for Atari carts at every thrift store I went to, and found them in maybe 1/3 of them. I don't remember if I ever found something I didn't already have at the time. Pretty amazing to find one today, even if it is a common cartridge. 120

jeffse.bsky.social @jeffse.bsky.social · 23/03/2025Now I remember this game! You snake down trying to snatch the oil with the joystick and retract with the button before the baddies hit your pipe. It's probably been 40 years since I played this. 110

jeffse.bsky.social @jeffse.bsky.social · 16/02/2025I can't listen to videos where every single pause in speech has been edited out. Maybe this is useful because it means the video is 3% faster but to me it's endlessly distracting. Am I just an old fogie for feeling this way? 000
