Not as such, but we will remind you that technically you weigh a little less now.

It's OK...the missing-tooth/teeth-but-not-all-that-visible club welcomes you. Also... we have a writing clique.

I still see you. Did it get resolved?

I'm not sure this is a consensual picture. 😄

I missed you, too. I'm glad you took some time for you. Please keep doing that. I'm here for political stuff, or tornadoes, or strength training, or just cat pics.

I'm technically in that phase, but I couldn't get used them. Tried them for a week, and had constant headaches, and turned my ankle twice stepping off curbs.

For reference, May 25th was the release date of the first movie, is Glorious May the Twenty-Fifth on the Discworld, and is Towel Day in honor of the late Planet Earth.

Happy May the 4th to all who celebrate. I do not as I'm Star War Orthodox and celebrate on May 25th, as the Lords of Sci-Fi and Fantasy set forth in the holy scriptures.

Yes. And I can't stand the recent addiction of putting burgers, etc. on brioche.

We have those, too. And while they're not technically mandatory, they don't have alternate times available. So when I attend one, when it's over I immediately sign off for a real lunch.

Not too long ago I read an article about a study that said this is actually a thing. Getting worried about, or excited for, an upcoming trip can mess with your immune system. The anticipation--positive or negative--is a form of stress. I hope you feel better quickly.

At least your brain has taste.

Glad it went well. I feel like, right now, you've got enough stressors going on.

I hate this government for giving me a new moon launch, but dropping it into a timeline where I have so little trust in the government that I can't view the Artemis II with anything but suspicion. To the brave woman and men aboard...

I sometimes get this kind of restless leg thing when I'm awake but trying to be still...if my leg sits still for too long, it feels l like there's bean bags in my knee joints. The only thing to do it walk it off. When I was a kid this occasionally made taking tests a nightmare.

A single mother in our local Buy Nothing group asked for a set of D&D dice for their 8yo son, whose friends are getting into D&D. She also thinks it's something they can learn and play together. They're coming over later thinking they're getting a single set of dice. But I'm gonna hook them up.

I don't have a good T-shirt for today's geek holiday. But I have one ready for tomorrow, and it only makes sense one day a year.

I just dropped off Clove to the groomer. And right after I handed her off I got accosted by two very energetic, chubby Yorkies. Who climbed onto their owner's heads before jumping into my arms. Their humans apologized for a solid two minutes, telling me they never do that.

Hope you're fine, quickly.

That's fair. I was more curious about style, but didn't think of the potential for oversharing.

Is your new home in this picture, or is this the view from your home?

Congratulations. I'm sure it'll be a lot of work, but it will be worth it.

I hope wherever this was posted originally, that the advice was simply a list of ways to kill himself that would make him suffer.

💯 Not only are there no misses on this album, but the order is perfect. Just hit play and revel.

That's awful. I've ordered from them more than once. They seem very nice and knowledgeable.

A vote of opposition to Boox. I got a GoColor. The resolution a disappointment but the battery was defective. However, in order to return it as defective they wanted me to do about 6 hours of diagnostic labor to 'prove' it was defective. Their email correspondence was openly hostile.

Condolences. Be sure to ask the pigs forgiveness.

I.e, this administration is so ridiculous that AI—a robot, hive mind that hallucinates—thinks it could only be satire.

Oh no. I'm so sorry. Hugs to you and the pigs, and we'll see Margo in Valhalla.

The irony of insulting the writing of others but publishing this absolute mess of marketing buzzwords combined with sentences that should get you excluded from community college...

Awwww. That's sweet. That's a good habit to keep in the bank. Nothing has earned me more goodwill in my relationship, than making coffee every morning for my wife, even though I don't drink it.

Also, looks like telling the government exactly which drugs I'm on.
