Playing that Kingdom Hearts rhythm game. It's pretty strange, but I guess that's par for the course with this series.

It took some convincing, but I was able to get the cat not to be on my lap while I tried to eat dinner.

Cat bellies make great hand warmers.

Who is the best super hero and why is it Nyamo?

Everybody else can just give up now. This is peak video game fashion.

Tasting production test batches for a medium and dark roast of the new coffee from Bolivia. This is one with pretty low perceived acidity, smooth, easy drinking. I might make this the base of this year's Holiday Blend, but I have a couple more new things to sort out before I move on to figuring that out.

The new dark roast Ethiopian coffee is on brew today. Customers reception has been highly positive so far.

@mhoye Default should be AWOO!

Current cat status

The cat is shoving her face into a mug. I've already consumed the beverage it contained, but she's double checking that there isn't something good for her.

Continuing to work through new coffees. The coffee from Papua New Guinea turned out nicely expressing as a rich, sweet, well balanced medium roast. This will also let me get our Big Island Blend (the PNG is from the world's largest coffee growing island) back out for sale.

The cat thinks I spend too much time at work and not enough time with the cat. She's right, of course, but work pays for the cat food.

The secret to doing good literary analysis of sci fi is understanding that it's a subgenre of erotica.

I should order a pizza for dinner.

There are lots of new coffees expected to hit the shelves soon. My shop has so far resisted having an email mailing list mainly because I hate being on those, but I've convinced myself that I can put one together that I personally would not hate so here's a sign up.

I've done a couple other mailing lists with TinyLetter and am satisfied that they do things like unsubscribe and I won't miss the features of other services that exist for dark patterns I want to avoid.

@Taweret@octodon.social My mom's late cat would move her food into her water dish. She preferred cat food flavored water.

Unloaded a few thousand pounds of coffee. The paperwork somehow still has a dead person as the contact. I should really get my supplier to fix their records on that.

@federicomena Yes. DNS should have known what you meant and it still sounds better than PEBKAC.

Hmm... Should I take my brands.town parody account and turn it into a real life actual brand? I could do that and have the advantage of it not needing to make money.

@mhoye You should share that with Yahoo. They'd be smart to take that deal and Musk might just go for it if they offered.
