I learned about an expensive headset brand today. Their website was fun, their product is exactly what I want, and they have a 5-year warranty. The headsets come with spare ear pads. Never heard about them before today. I somehow trust they're worth the price.

(Still ended up just buying new foam pads for my current $30 headset, but I was tempted.)

Psalm for the Wild-built. It was so sweet and gentle.

I have the red star (no laurels). It came attached to a really warm hat at a thrift store.

They're pretty sweet, but also salty. Very tasty, like frozen sugar free Gatorade. (because real sugar+sick kid=bathroom sadness)

Pedialyte (electrolyte drink aimed at sick kids) comes in freezer tubes and they're awesome when you're over-hot and dehydrated.

Joke's on them, I have a 15-year mortgage on my condo. (Lower interest rate than a 30-year mortgage, USA, ymmv)

I thought the USPS was funded through usage fees/stamps.

We gave away computer parts on Craigslist a few months ago. It was a no-stress transaction and the receiver was a sweet old-school computer person building a basic machine for his kids to play Minecraft. Would do again.

From a "giving tech support" POV, nano is the best editor. Have you ever tried walking a non-techie through editing a config file on the command line, over the phone, no screen share? Nano is your friend. (I swear, this very expensive software I used to support got its sysadmins by picking whoever was absent the day the the client site figured out someone had to do it.)

That's for the best.

(I'll describe it in case you're serious:

spoilerYou know those Asian squat toilets, a fancy hole in the floor? First shot is of one of those with a toilet seat suspended over it like a swing. Second shot is outside the stall, angled along the stalls. We see the feet of someone swinging out of the stall, like they're enjoying the toilet swing. A brown turd-shaped object rolls out from under the stall door. A hand with holding toilet paper reaches out and picks up the turd, pulling it back into the stall.
