The thing about Volvo is that the windows roll down slowly. No one knows why. Maybe it’s for dramatic effect.

Today is all-day at the hospital, just like every 4 weeks. But now the fire alarm is going off (a drill). Needing to evacuate via the stairs in the middle of an hours-long infusion conjures quite a mental image.

The fact that the president visibly loses consciousness basically every day he’s on camera and the press refuses to mention it or falsely describes it as “napping” is a ridiculous phenomenon in a truly ridiculous time.

Today’s design thought: for article redirects, Wikipedia should highlight the relevant text corresponding to the article you thought you were going to. I run into this with historical company names/mergers.

My main man, Zot, turned 18 years old today. 🎂 So many years of adventure. (He’s ready to vote. Are you?)

Not that many years ago, I could go anywhere with like 20 minutes’ notice. Now it’s days of logistics for arranging everything.

Pro tip: Check your Bluesky chat settings. They seem to have shipped a bug today that causes your direct message and group chat permissions to set themselves incorrectly.

Me on hour 7 of Peter’s infusion day: you know, maybe all of my friends should get fax machines; then we could fax each other invites to hang out.

Just went to a private performance/interview with the guitarist from The Presidents of the United States of America, where we learned the real meanings behind “Lump” and “Peaches”. Normal Thursday evening.

Our cat is happy and eating well. Some bureaucracy is finally progressing after requiring 120% pressure this week. A new medical provider did a great job today. Now to catch up on sleeping.

The 18 cents/gal gasoline tax, last changed 33 years ago, is now 56% less than it would have been if it were indexed to inflation. Removing it would save just 2$ for the average fill up and crater the budgets used to maintain roads. By contrast, this admin’s tariffs cost households over 200$/month.

The keyboard in iOS 26 has led to typos in emails, and if you know me at all, you know that I am not a typos in email kind of person.

My husband and I were at a museum exhibit opening when we noticed Jónsi from across the room. He was just walking around like a regular person getting snacks, at his own gallery opening, and no one seemed to notice who he was because the invite declared that the artist would not be giving a talk.
