if you've got one of the many "loud sudden noises push brain's murder button" issues your elderly dad/roommate buying a new pair of (same litter) puppies to terribly neglect after you explicitly told him not to will slam that button every waking hour.

Bird in the Bush, Kenneth Rexroth, 1955

Remembering the exact taste and smell of the local hockey rink's canteen air while I ate fries and gravy with ketchup and drank fountain coke. Remembering the past feels like dreaming a different person's life. It's like crawling through a hole in the wall and driving John Malkovich around.

One of my greatest regrets in life is never buying one of these and trying to pull it off. Maybe I'll trying this winter.

I used to think this was offensive rich people opulence (cigars are dirty! tubs are clean! so inefficient!) but now that I'm old and shitty smoking in the tub has to be the best feeling. Marlboro Lights in a Best Western tub has to feel just as good.

The tub is my favourite pain killer, muscle relaxant, and mood stabilizer. Adding a pack of Sampoerna Classics to that would be amazing.

I love military surplus. Good enough outdoors stuff that's cheap. Why's all these bastards got nazi coffee and rhodesia flags? I don't remember military surplus places being so fashy in the '90s. Weird dudes with problems used to run them all.

I have put the alligator clips away because every time I look at them "zippy zappy time for nappy" pops in my head.

I have a 12v battery charging next to me and the urge to grab the alligator clips and jump something that is not a battery is compelling.

Entrevista con el vampiro is narrated by Alejandro Vargas-Lugo who's the spanish voice of Grim!

Oh shit, there's audiobooks included with Spotify premium? Gonna listen to stories I already know read in languages I lost my Duolingo streak in ages ago

Truly love the number of people I've met that have been like "Well I went to a Catholic school as a kid, which is to say I'm not Catholic" like damn Catholic schools really out here doing the exact opposite of missionary work.

Replaced the battery on my UPS for the first time in 10 years. Instead of lasting seconds and screaming at me when something else is on the circuit it'll now last 30 minutes. And the old battery is a little leaky.

I've had a lithium battery that'd fit in the UPS for a year (it's 12v; I use it for old bike lights). I won't use it in the UPS. Lead-Acid/Nickel/etc will just leak and don't freak out as they age. Lithium will burn my house down.
