Maybe I’ll finally listen to the last few episodes of Savor this week. I could use some comforting familiar voices.

If you are wondering how I’m doing 36 hours after my dad died (well, almost 48 now but it was closer to 36 when this happened…), I got out of the shower this morning and only then did I realize I forgot towels.

NW Indiana is literally a disaster. Multiple counties have declared disasters. I’m safe, my power is back on. Almost everyone I know still has power out.

Got a permit for that manta ray?
A girl swimming with a dolphin, a manta ray, and a sea turtle in a pool. The text reads: Your kid broke the animals out of the aquarium again. You didn't know, because you were distracted on your phone. Put your phone away and watch your kids closely at the pool.

So let me get this straight. There’s a website called HuggingFace which has over 2 million AI models. And there is this program called Heretic that removes safety guidelines from AI models so they always do what you tell them to and claims to have already uncensored 1000+ models?

It’s interesting that social media apps have added reminders to use alt text for images. Threads needs a reminder to not use the spoiler tag unnecessarily. It’s annoying and not kind to people with screen readers or anyone who has trouble tapping the screen extra times to uncover the text.

One of the power company crew asked me “how was the ride?” The whole house shook. My ears popped a dozen times or more. For a couple minutes after the worst had passed, the whole house made terrible groaning noises. I could hear water sloshing, presumably from the water softener and water heater.

The guy who turned my power back on was outside my back door and I’m pretty sure he heard me yell “woohoo” when he turned it on! 🤣 I went outside and thanked the crew profusely. And then I slept. And slept. 💯

They had to come to our door and ask us about interior damage before they tried to turn our power back on. They also had to disconnect our neighbors’ houses because they no longer have circuit breakers. Their houses are totaled.

The power company got our electricity back on about 4:30pm yesterday. I’d been sleeping terribly because my UPS for my CPAP machine ran out the first night. Gotta look into portable power stations.

So when a tornado hits your house (Thursday night) the cool new place to hang out is in your electric car. We are fine. My neighbors’ houses are not livable. Most of the damage to my house is exterior, except a massively long crack inside on one wall where the ceiling tried to lift off.

Just recorded the last You Like the Worst Stuff. Our series finale after 15 years, almost 20 for two hosts on another show before this! A fun episode with lots of laughs, predictions about where gaming is going, why it's time to hang it up, favorite guests, in-jokes & how the show(s) even started!

@vogelbomb.bsky.social @anneyreese.bsky.social coincidentally we’ve been planning on stopping our podcast at episode 600 since late last year. We recorded our final episode tonight. But of course we were just hobbyists and only had tens of listeners.
