What has happened to small coffee? Last week I got a bag of coffee and a drip $24 (Amaya). This week a different place (Verve) $28. Beans are $$$ now? And what happened to a free drip when you buy coffee? – at The Woodlands, TX

My dad finally got a chemex, burr grinder, and some beans. He's been telling me my coffee tastes so much better, for years, I've been saying: burr grinder, chemex, fresh beans. 👏

What is this relic? Square monitors look so weird now.
A few years ago, I honked at someone who walked at a cross walk when i was turning left, i was irrationally mad. Later, I realized I was the dummy. I still worry about that person being mad at me.
When I’m in the shower I always hear my phone beep. But when I get out, I have no new messages. Is this the new pocket vibrating thing from decades ago?
I ordered wings from a new spot tonight, took a chance on tikka masala. Tasted like spicy pumpkin pie. Bleh
After getting used to an M1 Air for a few months as my “on the go” machine. Just got back on my T490 to connect to my Fluke. Holy wow I missed 1920x1080. Makes me want to go back to Lenovo.
Only on Twitter can we watch a man worth $200 billion negotiate with a man worth $500 million about saving $12 a month.

On my car’s auto stop/start I just hit 1 gallon saved. Took me 3,177 miles since I decided to see if it’s worth it being on. Don’t think it’s worth it for me.
It’s past 6am. I woke up at 3:15 for some reason. I should start running again. It’s been a year or more.

For some reason I felt taller today when I was in the shower. Did I grow?
