My latest video got more views on PeerTube than anything else I uploaded there this year (3 things from my initial dump have more views). Here it is again for those of you interested in how I decide how I want to roast coffees.

My sister made bat cookies.

Bought another couple tons of coffee today. More of the same I already have from Costa Rica, Colombia, and Guatemala, then additionally some coffees from Kenya, Papua New Guinea, Indonesia (Sulawesi), Brazil, and Peru. Odds are good that I'll still need another 1-2 tons before the end of the year.

I set a wallpaper on my phone that's a little larger than the screen and have just noticed that when I tilt the phone, the image scrolls.

There's a very large difference between having the right to do a thing and doing the right thing.

Thinking of naming my next program after my cat.

1.5 hours until tacos.

Just had an employee resign, which is just as well because their next shift was going to start with a conversation to find out why I shouldn't fire them.

Went home for lunch and got #cat hugs.

There was a black cat on my apparently evicted neighbor's porch. I hope it wasn't theirs.

I put out an update on the coffee roasting book I'm writing. If you're subscribed to the mailing list, you'll have already received this. Otherwise, you can also read it at https://tinyletter.com/roastingbook/letters/roasting-book-update

There's a house next to mine that hasn't had anybody living in it for ages. Tonight there's a camping in its front yard. We greeted each other as I walked past.

Newborn cats instinctively know to go left to collect the morph ball.

Might end up finishing a 6th episode of Roast Profile Development before the end of the month. After that it might be a new series, but I'd like to put that one out all at once for easy binge watching.

Today grass got put back in between the sidewalk and the street. There's still concrete barriers at the cross street so no access to my driveway, which is probably just as well because it looks like the entire contents of my next door neighbor's house has spilled into it. They didn't last long, but I won't miss having diapers left on my porch (wtf neighbors).

Everybody I've shown this to was surprised that THIS was the part that broke.

This is the thing I repaired today.
