I think my yard guy is fucking with me. He knows that I tend to sleep in the daytime so he sent me a text that he may be here Sat or Sun to do some tree trimming That made me drag my butt out of bed at a human hour so I would be available Then he didn't show up NGL it was a pretty good troll

Nifty. I bought some blue light/anti glare glasses for computer work (cataract surgery side effect) & they came with a little laser pointer. In blue, of course It feels oddly comforting to be wearing computer glasses again. I now have good near vision & bad far vision, opposite of pre-surgery

I think my blog is getting scraped to teach AI based on the amount of hits & where they're coming from Joke's on them because my blog is so going to poison any LLM that is unlucky enough to consume it. I go full-on stream of consciousness in there, which is kind of scary if you know me Suck it, AI

I can do a final count now. "Project Hail Mary" is out of my local theater & I'm not going to another city to see it again 70mm IMAX - 5 AMC "IMAX" - 2 Digital - 14 Unless it comes back into theaters this is it. I can watch it at home at my leisure but for now I think a break is in order

I've been down to half my dose for 2 weeks now - a fast taper I can still feel when the interval between doses is too long & there's some other physical effects. They all seem to be lessening I'm also more mentally engaged in both the things I like doing & necessary things I made a good choice

No Magic this week. As an experiment I didn't post in the group chat asking who was going. Neither did anyone else I'm dealing with enough in my med changes I'm not going to put myself in unnecessary stressful situations. Not knowing who will be there is stressful I'll have to go soon to socialize

I think it's best if I stop counting how many times I've seen "Project Hail Mary" until it leaves theaters. It's a running joke at the theater now, which I don't mind I have it on my movie server but I'm so not watching it extra times while I'm seeing it multiple times a week at the theater

I came home from watching a movie & scoured the long neglected pieces of my air fryer that I'd left soaking. It's an unfun but necessary job I've avoided. I do still need to scrub the air fryer itself I'm not done with dishes but the sink is empty for the 1st time in too long More applause, please

Not going to my FLGS for Magic tonight because: 1: Would be a 5 person pod 2: 3 of the 4 confirmed are players I prefer to avoid, if possible * That combo is not conducive to me having fun, so why go? * I avoid them b/c they're poor sports, play jank decks, or both

Data centers are A Big Thing right now My idea: No access to the local power grid Sewer/water to the office area only No grandfathering - give them a cutoff date Let them figure out how to generate power and cool the things on their own. That should slow down building them significantly

I finally found someone who didn't like "Project Hail Mary" They seem to be the type to find WWE peak entertainment & velvet Elvis paintings high art, so I'm discounting any movie critique from them My snark guess is that all the big words, math, and science stuff made their head hurt

Got to play Magic after a month gap. A poor sport player was in our pod & played a jank deck (deck w/ unfun style) They were the 1st one killed in each game, sulked, & said they felt targeted No duh. Their deck required us to take them out fast. So we did They won't have learned better from this

I have seen Project Hail Mary far too many times. My current excuse is it's my fill-in movie to use up my AMC A-List weekly slots 70mm IMAX - 5 AMC "IMAX" - 2 Digital - 5 Bootleg - 3? If I have unused slots & it's in theaters I'll watch it If it comes back to 70mm IMAX I'll go again for flex

I can't help but be giddy that Gail Simone reposted my reply to one of her (many) posts, saying that I solved a problem for her I helped Gail! She's probably not going to declare a blood feud against me! Bonus points for a reply to my reply saying it seemed to be the only actually helpful response

Going into week 2 of tapering off the high dose of benzos I've been on for decades. My NP dropped the dose by 1/3 Tbf I've been sporadic about taking the full dose so I kind of pre-gamed the taper on my own So far so good. Some physical symptoms but not enough to concern me It was time to do it

Today was my first day of tapering my anti anxiety meds. I'm supposed to stay on this dose for 2 weeks then drop again The schedule is faster than I expected but I'm able to decide for myself if I feel ready for the next change If all goes well I'll be on half the current dosage within 2 months

I'm going to flex a bit again and see Project Hail Mary on 70mm IMAX again Two reasons 1. Because its beautiful on the full screen 2. Because I can go to 1 of the 15 places in the world that has it in that format
A still from the movie "Project Hail Mary". This shows the planet Erid from about mid planet out to the rings. It's in tones of blues and greens with the rings getting brighter the farther away from the planet they are.

A detail is that this is just off vertical instead of showing them horizontal, as most ringed planets are. The cinematographer decided to do flares and other things vertically instead of the more common horizontal. Unless you know it, you don't realize what's different from so many other space movies.
