True, although correlation does not always equal causation.

Ummm, all computer systems have an algorithm …

Maria Brink and In This Moment

I went from original iPhone SE to 13 mini. I kept using the SE until it was no longer updated, although it still gets security updates from time to time. The 13 mini is a little larger, but not 6.5“ larger. I’m dreading the day that they stop supporting it, modern phones are so huge. I did read about a guy that doesn’t have a phone, just an Apple Watch, I might think about that.

No. Can you?

I use Evolution on desktop, and don’t have an email app on my phone. Email is for longer texts that require thought, and a proper keyboard. If it’s urgent, text me or call.

Yes, I’m old.

Dog poo bags. I was thinking about this the other day. Future archaeologists will dig up landfill and find all these plastic bags full of dog poop, which won’t have broken down because it’s wrapped in plastic. What was the significance of dog poop to this ancient civilisation? Why was their dog poo preserved? What benefit does the dog poo give in the afterlife? And will it still smell after being wrapped in plastic for a thousand years?

I also choose this man’s ex wife.

Where would the poo go? The only thing I can think of is that it would back up until it comes out your mouth. (Although I can think of a few people that talk shit, maybe that’s what happened).

I don’t think welding would work. You’d have to stitch it shut and wait for the flesh to grow together, which might take a few weeks. I don’t know if cauterisation would count as welding, and I don’t know if the seam would be strong enough to resist the back pressure. If it tears open due to said pressure, there’s also the risk of infection due to foreign matter entering the bloodstream.

Why don’t you start with a cork or a butt plug and see how well it works after the first twelve hours? Then if you like the result, apply superglue for a quick fix.

Check out Cryochamber on Bandcamp, there’s a lot of dark ambient that might suit you.

No, fuck that shit. Although I have been known to use the words clarinet, oboe, saxophone, spanner, and oompa-loompa in public.

For some reason this cartoon comes to mind:

Check your local ordinances.

Is it legal? Probably. Is it appropriate? Probably not. Are you able to approach your neighbour and provide your feedback? Many problems can be solved by communication.

As a punk from the 1970s, I can tell you most definitely that skinheads and punks are different groups and listen to different music.

And yet you didn’t tell the tale! Are you ok? Do you feel comfortable talking about it?

Not all at the same time:

• Broken both ankles at once
• Bitten by a snake, twice (two different snakes)
• In (temporary) remission from myeloma, an incurable blood cancer

• Y.O.D.A. - YODA (Weird Al)
