Don’t go through the motions. You look spastic. #life

Overheard: “In twenty years, there will be no jobs that aren’t tech.” Obviously, someone who knows little about life and tech and treats “tech” as a religion. #character #life

Blocking “senders” is useless when they use disposable email addresses to spam. Apple needs to do something about this. Mail is useless. #apple #spam #mail #failure

Why do I have to block each individual email/sender? Why can’t a block a multi-select at a minimum or a full domain instead? Oh, right Apple wants you to have spam… #apple #email #spam #failure #ios #ipados

But being a “box” the cats want to climb in and I need to fight them off the counter. #baking #sourdough #cat

It fascinating/disappointing that people buy-into paid endorsements. If you have to pay, you aren’t getting the truth. #marketing #failure #human

The Gathering: In case you’re keeping count, I still have 1-4 adults and at least 2-3 kittens to get to the vet for spay/neutering. #feral #cat
