does anyone else in PDX never see Weather.app say its foggy when its foggy? like we could be in the middle of a dense fog advisory, but it says “mostly cloudy”? its like this for me every time. what is up w that.
TECH CEOS: it’s wrong to be the arbiter of what you read or consume, and that’s why we will continue to allow nazis and eugenicists to post and monetize content on our platform
ALSO TECH CEOS: porn? here??? absolutely not
speaking of “stop emailing me” why why WHYYY are there so many more marketing emails in the year of our lord 2023?? why am i on the mailing list of random restaurants i went to in SF once, multiple years ago??? leave me alone 😭
i am begging brands to stop copying Spotify Wrapped. i promise you that i don’t need a year-end retrospective on the reddits i’ve posted, the jiras i’ve ticketed, the games i’ve steamed, or the doors i’ve dashed. stop emailing me

EXT. CENTRAL PARK OUTSKIRTS — NIGHT
New York One anchor CHARLOTTE DENNON reports on a SANTA sighting in Central Park, allowing MICHAEL HOBBS to read aloud from SANTA’S list. JOVIE starts to sing “SANTA CLAUS Is Coming to Town” to raise Christmas spirit as EXTRAS slowly join in. ON-SITE NYPD OFFICERS nervously reach for tear gas cannisters as they prepare to declare an UNLAWFUL ASSEMBLY.
started doing advent of code early this month and, yet again, fell off after only a few days. i can’t remember who said it or when i saw it, but someone said it “feels like homework” to them and i agree 100%. its just not fun for me, i guess 🤷
vacation, day one! i’m off for two weeks, so i want to do much more cooking than i’ve been doing lately. i thought i’d get some breakfast sausage for egg sandos but then i saw these preformed banh mi meatballs at New Seasons, so… that, a runny egg, american cheese, grunions, and spicy mayo. so good
just made some eggnog snickerdoodles for a cookie swap tomorrow and it’s taking everything in my power not to eat one right now but i should probably test one to make sure they’re good right? right?
my manager mentioned me being on PTO next week for the holidays and i’d completely forgotten that i took the whole week lol. last day of work for the whole year 😌
you could say i’ve garnered a certain reputation at work, especially in our food channel
some people still seem to think Threads is relevant, but i’m seeing VERY few posts about Kissinger burning in hell over there
not the best pic (our kitchen lighting is kinda fucked rn) but my local HMart had some good looking presliced A5 miyazaki short rib, so i blowtorched it and made gyudon with a cured egg yolk, real pickled wasabi, and grunions 😋
feeling truly #blessed to have been invited to this traditional holiday meal 😌
finally decided to get a new gaming PC after building my last one, like… six years ago? going from an RTX 1080 to an RTX 4090 is going to feel incredible
Mr. Fischoeder from “Bob’s Burgers” just shouted “foods before dudes!!!” and no phrase has ever resonated with me quite so much
i just finished Loki and it was fun but, damn, i don’t know how anybody keeps up with all the MCU shit. absolutely the most confusingly tangled web of media ever
i love going to uwajimaya, but i wish they had a more central location in the portland metro, especially since it now takes me 30 minutes to get there at basically all hours of the day
i just noticed my rice cooker’s clock didn’t need to be reset… zojirushi is DST-aware??? why
