In the last few months:
- Tumblr purged adult content (and a bunch of stuff it misindentified).
- Flickr purged free storage above a limit of 1000 photos/account.
- Myspace deleted 12 years' worth of music.

And Google+ only has two weeks left before Google pulls its plug.

Utility work was happening. There was a thing that they were scheduled to do in my house next week but as long as they were already there I just let them take care of that early.

One of the rubber strips on the bottom of the laptop has fallen most of the way off. I own glue that's appropriate for fixing that but it's not where I left it.

moderation, subtoot 

Given how tiny this instance is I don't have to do a lot of moderating, but if you go out of your way to @ me with your trash account I won't hesitate to full suspend.

The grocery store I went to today had various sub-headings in the cat food aisle. The happy kitty section featured the saddest looking cat models. I picked a bag from the meow section.

I should probably buy cat food tonight. She has enough that it would be fine if I held off until tomorrow but I don't want to feed her in the morning and have her noticing that there's no more cat food left.

I keep telling people, "you know, I really shouldn't have admin access on that account," but nobody ever goes in and revokes this stuff when I'm done.

Got removed from a trello board that I'm no longer participating on. This is good and proper and I wish this sort of thing happened more often because I have way more access to stuff than is appropriate.

My two largest flat screwdrivers placed on opposite sides and overlapping in the middle works. That's good as I'd rather not have to buy another tool just for opening the giant vat of soap.

The lid on the 5 gallon dishwasher soap has changed. It now wants the world's largest phillips screwdriver to open instead of having a place where I can just use a giant flat screwdriver as a chisel and hammer out an opening. Sadly, I don't own the world's largest phillips screwdriver and my largest flat screwdriver is still a bit too small to fit.

Why do I not have any music on my phone? There's plenty of space to put some on.

Need to stay late tonight. Short staffed so I need to be available to work the bar but there are wholesale orders that need to get roasted.

New French Roast tastes the same as the old French Roast when brewed on its own, works completely differently in blends.

Did catgirl maintenance last night. Her super fluffy tail needed a minor adjustment. (Yes, in addition to a real live cat there's also a full scale model catgirl in the house. I don't post pics because I don't want you lewding my catgirl.)

If you can get a really nice PC for the price of your phone, that phone should be on par with the technology in the squishy critter phone.

Dear phone makers,

Nobody wants phones with a crease down the middle of the screen. We want Ranka's squishy critter phone instead.
