Do you have enough cat spit on you?

Idea for a TV show: Quantum Leap except it's Ben Sisko having adventures through time and space in this sequel to DS9.

Tonight's backyard friend is an awesome opossum.

All Clear mode in Tetris Effect has a puzzle where the solution is to take the first line block, drop it in a 5 high gap, rotate it into a 5 wide horizontal gap, then spin it the other way to get it into the four high gap in the bottom, then spin the next block into the horizontal gap, which then leaves a four high for the last piece and yeah, I can do it but those should NOT be valid moves.

@Gargron This is Punk.

Timing on this one is probably too slow for this machine, but this is at least potentially delicious. #ikawa

Part of learning a new roaster is testing its limits. Halted this one at 4:20, fixed 80% fan, 540°F inlet. #ikawa

Cat posture.

My yard used to attract cats.

A couple of the younger ones are playing.

Remember several days ago when there was a giant raccoon in the back yard? Now there are at least 5. It's a raccoon family sniffing around my yard! 😍

(the cat doesn't speak English, but I was raised by a cat so I understand a bit of their language; this was a translation from cat to English)

This morning the cat wanted to speak with me in the kitchen.

"I notice you've put the last of the old bag of cat food in my dish, but there's a brand new unopened bag of cat food available. You should give me some of that."

So I did and she started eating.

The cat likes to lean on my arm.

What's the worst thing about having the street in front of your house destroyed?

Drafted about six pages on how to choose a good machine for learning to roast coffee. It should also be a good read for someone considering opening a roasting company who doesn't know what to look for in a first production roaster. It briefly covers things like controls and instrumentation, a usable trier, batch size, build quality and availability of replacement parts, budget, and training. No mention of specific brands/models because that would be huge and quickly outdated.

Punk is rolling around.
