Waking up to reports that Republicans are outraged at Xbox. Apparently Microsoft is allowing energy saving settings. Not sure if Republicans are waiting for a gas powered setting?
Seems like Republicans can be outraged by anything. Except for storming the capitol.
Always great to wake up to a republican self ownβor teabag.
Well, it's a good thing I spent the afternoon splitting wood. We are getting 6 to 12 inches of snow tomorrow with more this next weekend. And no warm days to split more. I have about 20 banana boxes of firewood in the shed if I run low. And 11 boxes in the house. That's a week worth.
That's what I started the season with. Two tiers. I stacked the second so high you can't see the first one. It's only 6 feet high.

This is amazing. NASA commissioned a microgravity compatible espresso machine for the International Space Station (to make ISSpresso, obviously), and to stop the astronaut having to drink espresso from a closed container with a straw, a bunch of NASA volunteers designed the Space Cup, so the crema bubbles could be seen and the coffee smelled even in microgravity. And I've just been sent one in the post. That's Samantha Cristoforetti drinking from it in the ISS cupola. #ISS #Space #Coffee

So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
