Absolutely not a joke! I was eating some granola bar and noticed in the ingredient list. I thought it was some ridiculous labeling thing and had to look it up. The bit you quoted was what I figured it was, but it still sounds absurd on the surface.

When I read the link, I immediately said to myself “Well, I guess it’s just like prune juice.” But that still doesn’t mean it doesn’t seem strange on paper.

They tell you your brain is broken and you’ll never live a normal life without medication?

I was seeing a counselor years back and she made this point to me. “If you had a heart condition that could be treated with medication, would you take it? What makes taking care of your brain different?” I was really the simple bit of logic I needed to hear. Luckily, the meds worked with only a couple minor increases over the years. Medication is absolutely an avenue worth exploring.

If I get more Hiro, I’m happy. I was so excited to see his 5 seconds in Bullet Train.

I went to lemm.ee and still can’t find it. Too bad.

Question: What is your favorite Mexican restaurant around specific city?

Response: Here is a list of all the restaurants in specific city.

I don’t think some polite pushback on that is unwarranted.

Okay, I’m following. So who would you recommend as an email provider?

I mean, that’s going to be a risk you take with any hosted service. I currently self-host my contacts and calendar, but I have no interest in hosting my own email again.

What Zoho plan are you using? I can’t quite tell what the difference between the free and lite tiers is except for IMAP/POP support.

I moved over to Proton earlier this year and have had a good experience so far, but I’m not married to it or anything.

OMG (facepalm)

If STATES existed outside of the United STATES, they would BE part of the United States. It’s right there in the name. We own it.

Do your own research.

Muppet Christmas Carol and Muppet Family Christmas are the only things I’ll still require my kids to watch with us every year. They’re just the best.

I will always upvote The Refreshments. Those two albums are seriously underrated gems.

Her vocal on the chorus is so powerful. The whole performance is heartbreaking and beautiful.

Maintain security by changing passwords every day. Easy.

Lots of loss in my family in the last 10 years or so. As a result things like this are the most devastating for me. These two in particular are just gutting.

Warren Zevon - Keep Me in Your Heart

Harvey Danger - Jack the Lion

Watch out for the icy patch!

I don’t even recall seeing it as a kid in the 80s, but I found it once I had kids and it’s absolutely our favorite to watch as a family. In fact, now that the kids are teenagers, this is probably the only one that will draw them out of their rooms to watch together still.

You can install extensions right from the Chrome Web Store with Edge. I have uBlock Origin in Edge on my work PC.

Right. I never pull the wrong one anymore because fan=fan and light=light. I know it’s a stupid minor thing, but it’s great.

One of my favorite purchases in terms of usefulness, cost, and fun (relative) was these frigging ceiling fan pull chains. I saw them on some “things you didn’t know you needed” list or something. But for less than $10, they have made my life infinitely easier and they do give me a little joy every time I pull on them.
