Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
Allow me to give everybody a chance to laugh at me. Here we go. So, remember when I said I needed someone to come over and adjust things on the machine? Well, it appears that more than the machine needed adjusting. For the last week, I’ve been wearing my mask wrong. I don’t know how …

If you came here earlier and noticed that the place had halfway fallen over, that should be fixed now. And for the benefit of anyone else running a WordPress website and also having problems at the moment, here is basically what happened just in case it might help. I woke up this morning to a …
I’m not sure why I would ever use this because Siri on my iPhone and Google Assistant on my smart speaker already provide pretty much the same functionality without needing to open the app, but since I’m sure it’ll come in handy for somebody somewhere someday, it’s probably worth noting that Spotify has its own …

So I’ve found another flaw in that smart laundry system I love to hate. They have these value codes you can buy online and add on to your laundry card so you only have to minimally interact with the laundry card topper upper machine, which works for me, since working with that thing is a …
I am such a goof. I also know I’m totally hooked on Wordle. Last Friday, I went to play Wordle and couldn’t.

I tried to write this yesterday, but a storm came through, and for reasons I need to figure out, my UPS was a little shorter on the U than I expected, so my computer died sooner than I thought and took my post down with it. So here’s take two. *slams the save button* It’s …
This past Tuesday I had to do one of those at home COVID tests, with Aira’s help of course. After I figured out what all the doodle bobs were for, it wasn’t too crazy hard, but of course I would have been screwed if I didn’t have Aira because I wouldn’t be able to look …
So Aira has a promotion where people can get free minutes to do COVID-testing-related things. I guess they’ve had to help a lot of people do at-home rapid antigen tests. I was intrigued by this, because even with someone on a phone directing me, it sounded pretty hard to do. Like, how do I get …
A little while ago, I heard about this new word game called “Wordle”. All I knew about it was that you got one five-letter word a day, and you got 6 guesses and you had to see if you got it right or something. Apparently everybody is playing it. I was intrigued but didn’t get …
