I have about 5 pounds of bicentennial quarters.

Works every time!

My doctor usually prescribes Oxycodone when I have a stone/stones, but I’m just not an opiate guy. It makes me feel more sweaty and nauseous and despair. There is a prescription NSAID called Ketorlac that works much better for this kind of thing in my opinion. One of the effects of long term use is kidney damage, so you need to take enough but not too much for too long. FYI if you’re looking for something to think about next time you get one.

I also found a wireless TENS unit called a Hollywog that just sticks to your back. It’s a little plate and doesn’t have any external wires. It hangs on by the electrode pads and you control it with a phone app over Bluetooth. This thing is great to use while your back is winding and wringing and you are stuck in a reloading agony loop. It kind of helps make it possible to focus on something for a minute without being distracted by the pain.

We really like Sky Valley too.

I do like both of those things.

I never really thought this through all the way this until fairly recently, and it’s not just this instance in particular, but Nancy comics are pretty good.

It’s crazy that this is the kind of shit we’re counting on now. It used to be the Guardrails and then it was the Wheels of Justice grinding exceedingly fine and now it’s Maybe Something Good Will Happen at the Last Minute

I stopped watching TV when I was six months old Because it was so boring and stupid And started reading books And going to recitals And art galleries

I don’t go to recitals anymore Because my hearing is too sensitive And I don’t go to art galleries anymore Because there are people there And I can’t deal with people Because they don’t understand me

I stay home Reading books that are beneath me And working on my work Which no one understands

I am sensitive I am a sensitive artist

I loved Shadow of Mordor. Shadow of War didn’t really feel like a good continuation of it.

I like anything that hurts Teams

We don’t want Human Sam. We want Robot Sam.

There is definitely some getting used to it and I can’t ever get careless, but it is a lot of fun and he loves it. To him it’s like I’m some super fitness maniac who runs 10mph the whole time we’re out.

I’ve been pretty happy with Gitea for small projects. I had to learn how to use it for because a client was already using it and wanted to upgrade to a more recent version. I was brought in just to make sure that it would work without introducing disaster, and that was my introduction to it. It’s nearly completely brainless to run as a docker container and it seems to work just fine.

I have something similar to this but not quite as involved as this one. It’s called a Walkydog and it’s just a post that sticks out from the side of my bike that has a very short leash on it. The post sticks out far enough that my dog’s legs won’t get tangled up in the wheels and the leash is on a spring, so he doesn’t get yanked around. We have a mutual understanding on how to behave around squirrels and other dogs and he knows I’ll ride slow and steady. He’s really pretty good with it. I take him with me to go pick up my kids from school and we all ride bikes back home together.

I wonder how these arguments are going to go someday when we have weapons that can just emit a field that instantly gives people cancer or vibrates their hearts to death or erases a person’s memory. The MAGAs will all argue that is their right to leave out beacons that covers a certain radius and will just run around chuckling “you triggered? you mad bro? you got sudden bone cancer or an exploded heart bro? can’t remember your kids? cry more ahahaha” and Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas will say of course these are fine, erasing peoples minds and having them drop to the ground when they encounter certain frequencies are just what the founding fathers intended (but keep those things a long fucking way away from us, of course)

I am working on getting my XBox controller to work with a Raspberry Pi/Astroberry setup to control my telescope.
