My main purpose in building my bot was to have my tweets on a platform not controlled by a weirdo billionaire. I figured I'd boost the evergreen tweets I want preserved, so that there's some continuity.
But it dawned on me last year that the earliest evergreen tweet I really want preserved came two years into my time on Twitter, and my bot is posting in real time. So I guess I'm kind of playing the long game here.

Wow. One of my banks was disconnected from YNAB without me noticing back in October and I have been budgeting based on incomplete data ever since. I just corrected it and now there's a flood of new data that has completely screwed up all my budgets.
Uggggh.

As soon as I posted this, I vividly recalled having this exact same realization back in 2015 when I upgraded my Surface Pro 1 from 8 to 10.
The more things change the more they stay the same, huh?

My Surface Book came with Windows 10, but it received the upgrade to Windows 11 at some point. Ever since then there's been a number of minor things that just weren't working right.
Those all seemed to get fixed when I did a clean reinstall of Windows 11, but it's wild to me that the old conventional wisdom of always doing a clean install rather than an upgrade still holds as true today as it did in the days of Windows 98.

I've owned a PS5 controller for use as a PC peripheral for years now, but using it with a PS5 is a surprising experience. The vibration feels a lot different and I had no idea games could add resistance to the shoulder triggers. That's a wild feeling if you're not expecting it.

Alright, enough of this. I'm implementing a 1-for-1 politics-to-cats post policy. Henceforth, any post I make about politics will incur a debt of one cat-related post to be fulfilled at my discretion.
This one has been very skittish, way more than her brother, but she's been coming out of her shell recently and playing more and exploring the house and she's just generally adorable.

I see people confidently saying Trump won the popular vote, and while it's true it's trending that way, nobody has called that. It also looked like Trump was going to win the popular vote in 2016 at first. It took a couple of days for the numbers to be confirmed. I imagine it'll take longer this year.
I'd prefer for us to have those numbers before jumping to that conclusion.

Checking the weather forecast in the major cities of swing states is probably not a healthy thing for me to be doing. I don't even know if that's a predictor of voter turnout anymore, what with early and mail-in voting.

Storm surge really freaks me out to think about. When you think about how massive and powerful the ocean is, it puts into perspective how scary-powerful the winds have to be to, like, physically push it uphill.
Normally you need the gravitational pull of the actual goddamn moon to do that. And the moon doesn't even do it that much by comparison.

I don't know what the zeitgeist is relating to sour beers. Maybe there isn't even one. Maybe they've been as popular now as they've ever been and I've only just started noticing them.
But I did start noticing them recently, to the point now that if I see a sour listed on a restaurant's tap list, that's almost always what I'll get.

I understand why analogies were removed from the SAT, but I always liked them. Convoluted analogies to me are like butter to a slightly stale slice of bread

Gears of War had a feature where you could speed up reload time if you tapped the reload button again at the exact right moment. It was so satisfying.
Every now and again, I'll manage to get my laptop into the laptop compartment of my messenger bag on the first try, and it feels basically the same as that.
