Today I got a text message referencing a photo of a screen showing a video of me from someone who works with someone I've worked on education projects with who wanted to know if they knew me. Apparently I came across as a cool roasting teacher, but the video also had my cat in the background which I'm pretty sure makes me seem cooler. (at the very least, my cat thinks I'm cool)

I know that's structurally awful. I'm not editing it.

We had a lot of bare faces over the past few days (we were keeping a tally to plan for what kind of disposable mask supply we might need), but now that the mask ordinance is in effect people are wearing their masks and not throwing tantrums. Better late than never, I guess.

There's one of those boxes that tries to sell the local newspaper in front of my shop. I think it only has the front section of a paper from I don't know how many weeks ago for display purposes only. I hope nobody tries to buy that. They'd be disappointed.

Got another order for coffee I roasted today. If the post office hadn't cut their lobby hours I'd've just packed that and dropped it off after work, but since I can't do that it doesn't make sense to bother filling any more orders until Monday.

At some point I'd kind of like to try sticking some screen casting software on the prototype and live stream a roasting shift.

Sent the prototype roast cam back. They're going to put some cooling on it to make it work better and send it back. The mounting holes aren't problematic.

Someone wanted me to send them something by UPS, but the UPS web site didn't want to take my money so I'm spending a couple dollars less and using USPS as usual instead.

Fediverse pro tip: just post cats. Everybody likes cats.

At the end of his battle with the Pah-wraiths, Captain Benjamin Lafayette Sisko fell into the fire caves and vanished. He woke to find himself trapped in the past, facing mirror images that were not his own, and driven by the prophets to change history for the better. And so, the Sisko finds himself leaping from life to life, striving to put right what once went wrong, and hoping each time that his next leap will be the leap home.

Which stage would the CONTACTLESS PICKUP ZONE be in a Sonic the Hedgehog game?

reading about cats in Islam and absolutely losing my mind about how one of the Prophet's companions is known as Abu Hurairah, which means "father of a kitten". imagine loving cats so much that history remembers you as "Cat Dad". what an icon

The Internet is made of cats. Sometimes they want to shove your database off the shelf.

The city is going to be requiring people to wear masks starting Monday. I expect the courts (with a judge I would have voted against had he not been running unopposed) will say the city can't do that, but as a business I can say we're requiring that for entry (don't like it? Phone order with contactless pickup for you or take your manufactured outrage to one of my competitors). We did a tally today and it looks like about 1/3 of customers were bare faced.

This morning the cat followed me into the kitchen for breakfast and was surprised that there was already food in the dish that she could start eating without waiting for me to fill the food dish.
