In other news, I got nostr:npub1v5ufyh4lkeslgxxcclg8f0hzazhaw7rsrhvfquxzm2fk64c72hps45n0v5 connected to #nostr this morning. Simply brilliant.

Me: I’m out of time to plan my day before I start work. I’ll take a break at some point and plan what I need to do.
Also me: Cool—I don’t have anything written down that I need to do today!
Ohhh… I thought you were trying to write a haiku and got the meter wrong.
Your brain was asking for more rest.
You can make choices that make doing the right thing easier.
Walking five miles on a treadmill is hard. That's over an hour of walking! If you get tired or bored and want to pack it in, you can stop at any time. There’s no cost. Just step off the treadmill.
Even walking around a track doesn’t take much commitment. You might feel an obligation to finish the lap you’re on, but there’s no reason you need to finish all 20 laps. If you want to quit after 17 or 11 or 5, you can.
But if you spend that initial burst of energy hiking 2.5 miles out, you’re committed. You can’t quit. You’ve got to keep going. The easiest thing you can do is finish what you set out to do.

The wife and I were discussing this last night. All motion is relative.

Our son is walking around the house, singing, “when money is controlled, money is corrupted!”
I’m doing something right.
Thanks! Try again? I just got a test to go through.
Can we hang out at 88K for a few days? I want Back to the Future memes.
Watched Mission: Impossible: Rogue Nation with my oldest today (her first viewing). That may be my favorite Mission. The cinematography is simply brilliant. The opera, the chase through foggy London at night… beautiful. Great banter, just the right amount of humor. (Also, in our head canon, Hunley is still Jack Ryan.)

I also realized (morning of) that I need a short-sleeved dress shirt.
I was! I tracked down the exact tie used in the movie. Need better sunglasses and shoes, probably in that order.
I also need better boots for Pike.
People living with the “unintended”consequences of making shoplifting not a crime… 4 years ago? It’s ridiculous. People walk into stores, shove merchandise into their bags, and walk out, all while the security guard stands there watching. More and more stores are putting more and more items into locked cases. Want work gloves, underwear, or mouthwash? Find an associate with a key first. Or just shop on Amazon.
In January, she’ll get to preside over the senate meeting where the electoral college votes are ratified (same meeting as Jan 6 2021) and Trump officially becomes the next president. It’s not the first time it’s happened (happens any time an incumbent VP runs and loses). Definitely a salt-in-the-wound moment.
So we’ll see her at least one more time.
In other news, California voted to:
- make shoplifting illegal again
- block state rent controls
- not inflate the cost of labor
We’re watching election night coverage. Every time they show a race (55%-44%), our son is adding the numbers together (“99!”). His idea to practice his Maths. I approve.
GM! It’s going to be an emotional day today. Lots of people will be high-strung. Lots of fear, anger, hope and celebration will be circulating. Stay calm and focus on what you can control, just like any other day.
