Cat likes these pillows.

Looks like trapped chests exist again.

@gnomon It's probably easier to just learn how to use a torch.

@gnomon Is there an optimal toasting time to bread mass? This might warrant investigation.

@gnomon Maybe a load cell? Bagels are heavier.

@gnomon If I increase the setting it burns my bagels.

@gnomon hot bread

Toasters should have one setting. That setting should produce toast.

DST confuses my cat.

Roaster part didn't arrive yesterday so I'm spending all day today roasting tiny batches of coffee for orders. USPS tracking says they'll deliver the part for the big roaster tomorrow.

When you go to the polls Tuesday, remember that alt-right is just another way of saying wrong.

Tried the demo for the new Tetris game. I enjoyed it, found the VR mode enhanced the experience. The cat, however, is not a fan.

This is such an odd trend in junk email.

I think I want a hanging chair for my library.

Persistent cold call scam person: People can't find your web site!

Me (in my head): And yet you managed to find it just fine.

Me (in real life): *hangs up phone*

@Satsuma There was also a tube of hot paste and a packet of sesame oil to add.

Some of the food on Korea Air flights is complicated. For one of the meals I was asked if I'd had it before and when I said no I got a big leaflet with step by step instructions on how to assemble the food from the ingredients presented on the tray. That was neat, though challenging in the limited amount of space in an economy seat.

In case any of you wanted to know what infrared gas burners looks like, here's a picture. My larger roaster has two of these running down the length of the drum. They're considerably less polluting than the more common atmospheric burners, but you need to read farther ahead on your roasting plan because it takes a while between changing the burner setting and seeing the impact of that change.
