A kid out there supposedly beat/broke Tetris the other day (something not achieved by a human before). I've played similar games for a period of time, and you can't stop sensing that motion in front of your eyes for awhile. I wonder how long it was before the world stopped moving, or since he's a competitive player, does it ever?

I occasionally utilize a VPN to access content not allowed in this country. It's always amusing when I remember it's on because I get a whole new weird slew of ads in a foreign language on other sites.

Without explaining it, I got a daily Far Side calendar for a family that's unfamiliar with it. I'm interested to see the reviews.

I'd like to think this year will be better, but the Magic 8 ball hasn't been giving me much reassurance.

One last waltz before the New Year. How did 2023 go for everybody?

On its 56th trip around Jupiter today, Juno will get its closest look at Io yet, passing about 1,500 km away.

Hmm, I think I need to work today.

We've made the trip up and down I-90 so many times that it's a rarity to stop by a gas station that we've never been to before. Sometimes I'll think we're at a new one, then I'll walk inside and be like, oh yeah, we've been here before.

I was in the back of a liquor store checking out their selection of Minnesota beers to bring some home with me. From the back, I heard what sounded like someone, a boss or something, really laying into an employee.

"What are you doing? How could you do something so stupid? What were you thinking!?"

I made my selection and approached the front with a little apprehension. Turns out it was just the lone worker watching the Gophers game.

Still don’t know what Boxing Day is but I’m okay with that.
