Mouse Trap

I hate having to pay for Disney+ to get Hulu. What the fuck is a grown-ass man supposed to do with Disney+? And don't bring up Star Wars or MCU, I said "grown-ass".

TIL Barq's Root Beer has caffeine

And I'm not even really that crazy about root beer, I was just trying to find something different in the non-caffeinated choices. 

oops

I'll even spell it for you

There's an auto repair shop I'll likely have to send my truck to called "Papa's". It's owner is, and most employees are, Hispanic. Talking to myself (don't act like you don't), I accidently called it "Pepe's" (does that make me racist?), and now I'm worried I'll make the same in front of them (which will definitely seem racist).  

Anxiety: You'll never guess the places you'll find it. 



What does it mean? What does "Pepe"  mean?

James 1:2

 

I count it all good when the bad days come 
'Cause I know that You're always working 
And I know that You're still not done 

So I'm gonna lift Your praise through the trial 
Ain't no storm gonna stop my voice 
'Cause I've lived some life 
And I've learned that I can always 
Count it all grace 
Count it all joy

Sure, Jan

Katie O'Brien, the actress/producer, has good judgey face. 


(Not to be confused with Katy O'Brien, the actress/natural artist, whose face looks judgey, but I suspect she's actually judging which is different from having judgey face).

New Tooyl

Tooyl (sometimes toyl) is a very useful toy. 

Today's Tooyl (more tool than toy maybe) is a Q2S ($36 Amazon) tablet Android 14. Wanted something bigger and maybe less precious than my phone, but smaller than the tablet. Went with the 7 inch because that's the size of the Fire tablets I had. Maybe should have gone with 8, maybe not considering the bump on price. Anyway I'm sure I'll get $40 worth of enjoyment out of it. 

It came with battery sure 90%. Then after setup, about a half hour of YouTube, and a couple websites, it was down to 20% in 3 and a half hours. Granted it did take just an hour to get back to 90%.

Let's see how this goes!
