lydamorehouse I'm currently in another screen waiting for my podcast co-host to show up.
Willow (our cat) is in the hallway, just outside of the room I record in, meowing at me for attention. Meanwhile, I have no idea if I'm in the right place because some time ago my co-host got irritated that I never seemed to remember when we were recording and asked if he could access my Google calendar, so we could sync up. Good idea! Only, I used to always attach the Zoom link to my calendar notification. Now, it and the alarm to remind me to show up are gone.
Not a huge problem, just a small irritation.
Last night I slept for crap because I decided in my infinite wisdom that it was a good time to catch up on John Oliver and, thus, I spent much of the night last night waking up in a heightened sense of existential dread.
Should be an interesting show today!

Which is too bad, I used to have a blog using hmmm, blogger? I wonder if there is anyway to recover that data. I tried the wayback machine a couple of times, but it doesn't seem to have anything from it.
Lemmy is all abuzz that Oliver mentioned Mastodon and Pixelfed in his last show. I did end up watching either yesterday morning or this morning.
On how many different platforms can we chat today? :)

Yeah, I caught up on Oliver's social media episode and Trump 2.0. That last one nearly did me in, though. It's good to be informed, but also stressful AF these days.
Ad, you'll see that I cut & paste some of my thoughts about the book into Patreon. Speaking of multiple platforms, sometiems it's weary-making to create new content for every different place.
