The world is just…not a great place right now (in my opinion, with my viewpoints of humanity and our existence in the universe) but one can always count on John Oliver for a great laugh. 📺

Even though “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver” makes me want to scream at times, it also makes me laugh.

🎮 Fired up the Switch to take a stroll down memory lane; showing my age but I remember playing the original Final Fantasy on the NES, back in the day. 🤣

I’m enjoying the remake, the quality of life improvements (such as being able to save anywhere) make it feel a little bit more modern. 📷

Finished up my taxes on my lunch break and realized this is the first time since I started filing taxes I didn’t wait until April to file. 🫨

I now own a single share of Nintendo stock…for no reason, other than the 12 year old me is happy to own a tiny piece of one of my favorite companies. 🤣🎮

📚 There is a phrase from a book I read in my adolescence that’s just been bouncing around in my head the past few weeks:

People are stupid. They can be made to believe any lie because either they want to believe it's true or because they are afraid it's true.

Wizard's First Rule - chapter 36, page 397

Locally speaking, I always understood this to be true but it’s rather remarkable and horrifying to see it happen before your eyes…

One can never ever trust FedEx when they give delivery dates / times. #burnedEveryTime

Saw this online somewhere today and it absolutely hit a chord in me; any time I walk on a university campus, with every passing year, I feel older and older. 🤣

Good grief, filling out taxes is just rough (unless you like that sort of thing 🤪) but at least Fidelity is fast to answer messages and phones. 🤣

Safely back in the States (though, are any of us really safe) but last Friday we were in Quebec for Winter Carnival. 🇨🇦🇫🇷🥶

Ambassador Bridge. 📍

New insurance is finally active and I was able to price medication for AHDH; on my old insurance, it was $10 for a ninety day supply…with my new insurance it’s $863. 😭

Healthcare in ’Murica. 😱

We’re #1!!! 😡 #sarcasm

Yea…completely forgot there was a big sports event today… 🤣

Everything seems to be getting more expensive, even a family subscription of Office 365. ☹️ At least one can get three months free when buying the subscription through Costco. 😂

The DMV might be the 7th circle of Hell, polling is still out on that question. 😵‍💫

There is something rather satisfying about doing a “pave / nuke” on your Mac, my M2 Air is blazing fast again…and I can once again use WiFi! 🎉🛜

OMG…just listened to what is apparently the last episode of @coreint. 😭 I’m going to miss @manton and @danielpunkass talk about tech and the indie web, it’s been one of my favorite ways to relax on a Sunday with a cup of coffee. ☕️🎧
