Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
I know I have written before about a kid picking on her virtual assistant, but I’ve seen another version of this, and this one seems even worse, in a strange way. Here’s the ad in question…almost. Apparently this ad was made for the Super Bowl, and we got a slightly abbreviated one. In ours, she …

Man, I’m getting forgetful. I’ve said it before, but it just keeps getting chucked in my face. The other day I wrote about some people who thought the world was ending. When I was looking around for something else, I found this post with nearly an identical title, from nearly 10 years ago to the …
No, I don’t have a death wish. Let me explain. First, imagine singing the “I want a hippopotamus for Christmas” song, but pronouncing Coronavirus like “Corin avris”. That’s how one of our screen-readers pronounces Coronavirus. Steve and I have gotten so used to pronouncing it that way that we have to make sure we say …
A while back, I said that I was having anxiety-filled COVID dreams. I am having less of those, but I have noticed that my dreams have changed. I guess they would be new-age COVID dreams. Now, they’re less terrifying and more sad. They point out all the little things that I miss, or think might …

I had never heard of the Holderness Family, but this will be my second video of theirs I’m posting today, and they have many many many many more. These people are hilarious. But this video needs to be the anthem for 2020. It is perfect. Even before the MURDER HORNETS! and the Coronavirus, Steve and …
I saw this article about masks causing communication problems for people with hearing loss, and I thought I would pass it on. I expected lip-reading would be a problem, but I hadn’t considered facial expressions, which was a total duh moment. I think this article does a good job of explaining the problem and giving …
