I had a weird dream that there was a human base on the moon that got blasted into deep space by a nuclear explosion, and then every week they would somehow make it to a new solar system tens of thousands of light-years away.
And their laser guns looked like staple guns from Home Depot.
And there was an alien with caterpillars for eyebrows.
Then I remembered, that was a TV show from the 1970s.

I was told today I would βsell more booksβ if I wasnβt βweird in public.β The thing is, my workbook doesnβt have mass appeal because itβs specifically for people new to the indentification of their #AUDHD. In the AuDHD community Iβm normal. This workbook will never have mass appeal, because it is for specific people and thatβs is okayβI knew that when I started this project. #actuallyaudhd #actuallyautistic #actuallyadhd
Sea drones attacked a Russian reconnaissance ship. Russian ministry of defense confrimed this information.
Russia reported that all unmanned boats were destroyed, the ship continued to function.
However, some sources say that although two drones were destroyed, the third one managed to damage the ship.
Russian Black Sea Fleet probably won't feel safe in the Black Sea anymore.

My cooking challenge for 2023 has been to reduce the amount of dish-washing required for any particular meal, without compromising nutrition too much. For some reason celebrity cookery books seem to skirt this type of topic :)
He had a meltdown. First the car, then the charger, and now I'm pushing him to get the rate information. Why didn't I involve him in any of this?
Because he agonizes, and can't make a decision. He drags it out until forced into a decision by timing, and then he grumbles about it when he makes the decision I knew he was going to make all along. Let's skip all that and just get to the end.
Hubs is not happy. But he likes the car I bought him.

I'm totally in my element, and hubs is feeling railroaded. Another day in my life.
We've talked about an EV for months, we've looked, I knew what he likes. So I bought him one last week. Yesterday I got the plug installed and ordered the charger for the garage - delivered tomorrow. This morning I told him I need the details on the power rate plan we're on; what rates are charged at which time of day.

A man is sitting next to his newborn baby's cot. From the other room his father comes in and lays a hand on his shoulder.
"You've done really well, mate. You'll make a brilliant dad."
The son looks up and smiles with a bit of anxiety in his voice. "Thanks, Dad. I really hope so."
The old man pulls out a small book from his back pocket and hands it to his son. "Now that you're a parent, I'd like you to have this. I studied it for the first year of your life and memorised every single one. I'd love you to use it for my grandson."
The son looks at the cover which is titled 1000 Dad Jokes To Annoy Your Children. He looks up with tears in his eyes. "Dad...I'm honoured."
His dad smiles: "Hello, Honoured. I'm Dad."
