Thing with buying an avocado is, you have to know that for the next three days, you have to be on your game.

I wonder if the astronauts have been spilling things these first few days back. Like, maybe one of them puts his water bottle into mid-air, and it drops. “Shoot! Right, gravity.”

I just washed down my heart medicine and anti-depressants with a shot of lukewarm espresso, and this is probably as close as I’m ever going to get to the hard-living, self-destructive behavior of an ‘80s punk rocker.

I’ve been doing this Mastodon thang on my phone using Metatext, an app that has served me well for years. But has not been supported for almost as long as I’ve been using it, and now suddenly all images are blurred, and I’m wondering if it’s time to move along to another tool with which to enjoy you all?

@piebob@metasocial.com I’ve put almost 10k miles on my e-bike over the last five years. It’s flattened San Francisco for me. I can get most places faster on the bike than in the car.

Remember they are pushing the entire planet east by 6° tonight, which means you’ll need to change your clocks.

I’m 67 yrs old, and I’m rolling up the cuffs of my jeans, and there’s not a thing my mother can do about it.
