Was that the boba tea place is gone. All appliances stripped. 🙁 oh well, probably would have been more than 235 calories anyhow.

High-quality A final response to the “Tell me why Trump is a fascist”.

http://ift.tt/29I73LA

http://ift.tt/2cNQ0He

I’d prefer to cherry pick that list to focus only on Trump’s policies and statements, and drop the supporter stuff.
He’s certainly got enough ammo against him for his own visibly terrible and stupid actions than to mention what dumbass types do in his name. 

I am thoroughly disenchanted with his opponant… but it is nowhere near an equal run. Even if all of what has been said about Clinton were true (including all of the nutty conspiracy stuff, which I severely doubt), Trump appears to me the most vulgar and hateful creature to have run for office in my lifetime… and that is saying a *lot*, given the last four decades.

Weekend in a nutshell

Working backwards

Strange and Norell, episode 4

Dinner at ihop with van, waffles

Iced tea from a mutant at dd

No more bubble tea at Korean place

Arts fest at Anne Marie gardens

Got 2 tote bags, Poteet creature print, two log pillow puffs, Tettimer star earrings, a lot of fried food. Arranged to set up another Poteet original.

Intended to wake early for waffles, but we dallied until noon. No worries there.

Saturday, we watched Strange and Norell episode 3, and zonked on the couch.

As Allison faded in and out of wakefulness, I watched cute animal videos and youtube miscellany.

Visited target and picked up a skiff-load of Halloween loot, some jammies and tops.

Went to Sandy pony donuts, and got what were possibly the least palatable beverages in the form of bubble tea. I got black tea, She had taro.  Both were bland to flavorlessness,  with few tapioca bubbles and  No sweetness save for what I added after the fact.

Visited ginas cantina with s.I.r.s.

Minor update

Just set my Samsung tablet back to Santa’s workshop for repairs for the second time. Same issue, power. Battery drained and the device wouldn’t charge.

Got a warning for soft stopping at a sign, I’m appreciative of not getting a ticket, my only time to be pulled over since the first week on having my license at 16. That’d be February of 1985. 

Met with a good headhunter today and hopefully will have a line on a fresh gig soon. Nice guy, Patrick, a friend of Mary from knitting, who is a cool lady- knits, plays video games, horseback rider.  Speaking of it amd knitters, fixed another ipad setup at knitting last knight,  general apple tech minors,  but Betty appreciated it, as did Toni, when I fixed hers. Ipads, at least the models I just worked on weigh a ton… I can’t see how folks use those dinner trays as cameras or handheld media consumption. 

I don’t charge the knitters for tech support, maybe if it took me on a long trip out of my way, but if I’m already at the place then I’ll happily give a device a once-over. Betty is bringing her laptop next week,  and I figure that it’s just a case of the thing being old tech that can’t run up to speed.. all she uses it for is email and browsing, near as I have heard. 

I’m about 6 episodes behind on Mr. Robot. I tend to watch what I think Allison will enjoy, which is lately Salem if we’re up to the gore, or misc Netflix otherwise. Very British Problems is amusing and not hard on the gut. 

Played a little fallout 4 nuka world dlc, and that’s pretty adorable. Disappointed that mods aren’t happending on ps4, but the raw play is very satisfying.  I might get the pc version for the mods when it drops to sub $20 or appears in a humble bundle later on down the line.

 I’ve pretty much given up on no mans sky,  but may check it out again if I hear of an amazing patch or something. 

Minecraft continues to be very amusing,  I think I have a version on just about every electronic device I own, except for the fitbit.

In fitbit news, I briefly fell out of the habit of using  it. Back to wearing it now, though my exercise has been limited due to sciatica.  I’m building back up to it, and taking it just to the point of reasonable difficulty and pain. Losing the additional weight again, little by little. Glad it’s cooling down outside. 

Podcasts I currently listen to when I walk or work out are:

  • Tanis
  • Doughboys 
  • Magnus Archives
  • Greater Boston
  • Uncanny County
  • Lore
  • Wolf 359
  • The flop house
  • Ars paradoxica
  • King falls am
  • The bright sessions
  • Harmontown
  • Return Home
  • Dana gould hour
  • Black tapes
  • Archive 81
  • Scoop hound
  • Small town horror
  • The monster hunters
  • Our fair city

Mostly humor, chat, twilight zone / horror type stuff, or clever sci-fi drama.

Reading sooner dead

​IN THE FALL OF 2012 , scientists at the Large Hadron Collider in Geneva, Switzerland, embarked on a new series of high-energy experiments. No one knows exactly what they were attempting to do, but a little after 3 p.m. on a Thursday afternoon came the Big Mistake, and in the blink of an eye, many possible universes all condensed into a single reality. In some of these universes, little had changed; it didn’t make a big difference, for example, which team won the 2011 World Series. In other universes, there were more important divergences: The Gray Emissary, who was carrying gifts of advanced technology, wasn’t shot down at Roswell in 1947; the Black Death didn’t devastate Europe in the fourteenth century; the dinosaurs didn’t die out; Nikola Tesla conquered the world with a robot army, and so on. The Cold War went nuclear in eighty-three percent of the possible universes, and in three percent the French unloaded their entire nuclear arsenal on the town of Peshtigo, Wisconsin, because it had to be done.

 When reality stabilized again, an instant after the Big Mistake, the familiar Earth of the twenty-first century was replaced by one formed from many different realities. The year is now 2162 (or 151, or 32,173, or Six Monkey Slap-Slap, depending on your point of view.
