Charlie hung out with me on his leash for a little bit but the moment he heard a loud family coming our way he went straight to the door and noped on back inside. I had to shout for MB* to meet him and remove the leash so I could greet the trick-or-treaters.

Photo of Charlie Danbo the brown striped tiger cat wearing a pickle costume over his black harness and leash. The pickle has a cute smiley face and says yummy world. The opposite side says "I'm kid of a big dill." Charlie is looking off to his left and standing with that left front foot forward. He's on a blacktop driveway with a pileup of yellow and red leaves behind him.

My street gets too much through traffic way over the speed limit. MB* told me how popular the street behind us was for trick or treaters. Oh well. It's a lovely night and I've got a fire going.

OMG Patrick Stewart was a living meme. In a recent episode of "American Dad" he said "make it so." The official X-men pinball machine from Stern has Professor X doing the face palm. Everyone pour out a cup of Earl Grey for our homie.

As a part of a closet clean out I've listed several clothing items on depop. I'm not planning on making beaucoup bucks, but I worry that the people of depop won't recognize the value of some of my more unique pieces. Like designer sample sale items... Or real silk...

My most boomer-coded personal product is the cardboard applicator tampon. The Tampax Classic. And since boomers are in menopause, I think they've been discontinued. They were getting harder to find in stores but since this summer I've been relegated to the store brand plastic applicators. Woe.

I'd noticed that the frequency and length of ads I'd get in a freemium game was affected by my willingness to voluntarily watch an ad for a power-up or a continue. It caused me to rethink how I interacted with those boost opportunities.

No joke. I think this is the most important video I have ever seen about mobile games. This guy breaks down how this game psychologically profiles you, and makes the game harder or easier in order to show you ads

I took down all the decorative aluminum shutters today as step 1 of a repaint project. I had to wait for MB* to help me bc the big ladder solo made me feel unsafe. 1. Lol ew look at the siding under the shutter 2. Not a camera/light trick. The 4 on the right are almost completely bare aluminum!

Photo of an aluminum extension ladder up against white vinyl siding between two windows. The left window still has a black hitter but the right window has a gross dirty spot where the shutter used to be.Eight aluminum decorative window shutters propped up against a fence. The group of four on the right appears to be bare aluminum except for the frame while the four on the left are still mostly black, yet faded.

THE ALGORITHM KNOWS TOO MUCH. I phoned in a pizza order for MB* to pickup for dinner at a local spot. I noticed they have online ordering on their website now and I populated my pizza and wings order, but never submitted it bc of the coupon codes.

One of the AI agents offered me two options of appointments for today and I replied by asking for Option 2. The robot replied with a generic, "It's good to hear from you again!" I show up at the leasing office, a girl there wouldn't let me inside, wouldn't give me a # for the person in charge.

I sent out requests for apartment viewings on Friday and was disappointed that I only got 1 call back... Turns out the rest all use AI agents to send their emails so they went to the promotional inbox among the Old Navy coupons. ๐Ÿคฆ
