What's on the ceiling?

Finished my class and test early. Still waiting for my sister who was also renewing.

If any fedi peeps playing #GenshinImpact want to link for the current event, my code is UNK9OPBK

Long day tomorrow. I'll be getting my food safety management license renewed (there's a review class for most of the day followed by a test). I have enough employees with the license that I don't technically need to have this (I pay staff to get this), but I'd rather keep it up.

Talkative cat is letting me know all about her exciting day.

@mwlucas As production was finishing up on that episode, then mayor Richard Riordan proposed creating fenced in areas for Los Angeles' homeless.

New coffee from Java is available on the web site now. I still need to design a label for it, but I'm putting that off until tomorrow.

I think I'll go with a blend combining coffees from Indonesia (Sulawesi and Java), Guatemala, and Brazil this time around.

Working on new espresso blends is difficult these days. You have to put your mask on, make the coffee, then take the coffee away someplace where you can be alone before unmasking to take a sip of the coffee, then mask up for the next attempt, repeat until it's right. And since it's espresso, there's a limited amount of time to taste that at its best. I guess it's good for the people who count their steps.

static cat zapped me with a nose boop.

I don't know what she intended to ask, but I got a text from my mother inviting me over after work for an extinct third century religion and fries. Her fries aren't very good so I'll stick to my plan of eating my own food and petting the cat.

(this is still not as good as the time a spammer was pleased to understand that I was in the market for life sized animatronic dinosaurs)

Today's spam includes a message from someone who is confident that their cranes will improve my business. Because of course, when you think of vital equipment in operating a coffee shop, cranes are right up there.

People say fuck whatever group they don't like, but this seems like the wrong strategy. What about withholding sex instead?

Today in breaking the game, I was trying to make some progress toward the Practice Makes Perfect trophy in Deemo Reborn and this happened (there's supposed to be vocals and more sound here):

Got 5 different Biden ads in the mail today. No Trump ads.

The shop has been rolling out pre-packed bags of cookies (13 cookies in the bag for the price of 12) and the labels for that can be challenging. Peanut butter cookies, 10 ingredients, made from scratch just like Grandma would make them, but once you list out the ingredients of the ingredients and their sub-ingredients it looks like some highly engineered thing out of a chemical plant.

@fribbledom Great restraint from the audience there. I LOLd there.
