Thank you!

As the doc predicted, the sweet thing barely notices her leg isn't there --- saw her "scratching" her ear with it this morning (I helped her out ofc)

I try! I was feeling pretty down for various reasons, so it's been good to do something nice.

Aw, I'm sorry you lost your mac lover :(

The kitten's name actually came from an autocorrect of "tortie"!

In my mind, you're the one in charge of doing the "cooking" tasks at a fast food place, you're probably well within your right lmao

Lmao I'm sorry, the caffeine was hitting and my reading comprehension failed me --- I saw "fire house" and interpreted that as the sub shop.

Thank you for your very important public service and for keeping your crew fed!

You probably know this since you work in a kitchen, but a buddy recently taught me that the trick for taking the edge off raw onion---e.g. to put on a salad or burger---is to soak the slices in cold water for a few minutes. Keeps the sweetness and flavor, but seriously reduces the sulfuric burn!

Don't these fart-huffing jackasses understand that I actually need to read my e-mails to plan physical meetings with other flesh-based entities?

It's difficult for me to fathom how someone could risk their work getting fucked up by non-deterministic software.

To me, it's not worth the risk or the hassle to set up and babysit a piece of software that might get shit wrong when I can just do it correctly in the first place.

Once, while working a blue collar job, I encountered a person who didn't know the word "citrus".

They tried sounding it out: "sigh-truss" is where they landed.

Ain't No Sunshine by all the fucking bands covering it and fucking it up. Absolutely hate that song.

Truly the Mustang Sally of this era.

This looks awesome! I haven't had boudin in so long, and it never occurred to me to just make my own.

Absolutely nothing wrong with supplementing or replacing drums with samples! I have a friend who's a very accomplished engineer and musician, and they do it for pretty much every project.

Weird microphone tricks (e.g. a 57 on a kick drum) are just stopgap solutions when there are no other options, kinda like replacing a bad kick drum sound --- the most important part is to trust your ears and have fun!
