You can only drive your own car.
I purchased a new product, did my first unboxing video, hooked it up, recorded some of the steps, was going to do a review, and it didn’t work. At first, it was definitely my fault for connecting it incorrectly, but since then I’ve discovered other issues that I’m working with their support on. It’s a great product and I’m excited to get it working, but bummed that these issues are holding me back both from using it fully as intended and recording the review.
Something melted on the bed. It looks like it was an ice cream sandwich.
Every year, Formula One produces opening titles with all the drivers, and they make them all look serious and hard.
Then in the middle of the 2023 season, there was a driver change…
(Yes, I changed the order for the better punchline. No disrespect to the title contenders intended.)
I will continue to call him Teflon Don until something sticks.
I’m not holding my breath.
As far as these old politicians, I know some think they’re just holding on to power and that’s what it’s all about. But, a big part of the issue is that there isn’t really a system or method to help them out of office. Impeachment is for misconduct, that isn’t the case here. If they don’t see their own inabilities (and those with cognitive declines usually don’t, and too often stubbornly say they’re fine), then what? Outside of waiting until the next election, what can be done? I don’t think there’s a good answer.
Our old house is for sale again. I was in the area and since it’s not currently occupied, I had a quick look around. The current owners changed a number of things, but overall, it’s very similar to when we owned it a couple of years ago. However, I had to keep telling myself, “it’s not my house!” as I briefly walked around on the property. After owning it and living there for over 20 years, it was weird to not act like I owned the place!
We know the current owners and I’m sure they would have had no problem with me being there. That wasn’t the issue. It was just not my thing anymore. But part of me felt like it was. I don’t feel bad about it, it’s just funny how part of me was trying to revert to old ways.

Of all the information a modern automotive dashboard provides, why is temperature even a thing? Also, while it may be A temperature, it is not THE temperature. The temperature inside a metal box in direct sunlight isn’t how it’s properly measured.
Don’t worry. We’re not killing the planet, just ourselves. The planet will recover nicely once most or all of us are wiped out.
Film strikes, music, unions, and the Internet
For several years I’ve been trying to compare the music industry (which has been lousy for artists for a while) and the film industry, which has seemed profitable and working. I was wrong. The issue was that streaming hadn’t hit the film industry fully until recently. Now that it has, we see they’re having the same problem created by the Internet that music and print has had. The one difference is that writers and actors (and directors…) have strong unions but unfortunately the musician’s union lost that kind of strength a long time ago.
(That’s not to say anything bad against the musician’s union, I’m all in favor of it, but unlike film, not every performer or writer is a member nor is required to be except for certain jobs. It’s unlikely your favorite artist is a member, unfortunately. Most people in popular music are on their own, especially starting out.)
