Not entirely sure what the kid is making with his friends in Roblox Studio, but a a flaming toilet is involved.

I think I have heard “Never gonna give you up” more times in the 2 weeks since school let out than I have in the entire history of the Rick Roll up to that point.

Ad for a restaurant: “Why drive? We deliver!”
Me:
- It gets me out of the house.
- I know my car can make it there and back on the electric battery. I have no idea what your delivery drivers are using.
- You have a Pokéstop in your building.

The kid has taken a midi of Pachelbel’s Canon and used a sample of the Roblox player-hurts sound for every instrument. “Canon in Oof,” he calls it.
“Oof remixes” seem to be a thing among this set.

Grocery & takeout run yesterday, first since Tuesday’s CA “reopening”
Grocery & takeout run yesterday, first since Tuesday’s CA “reopening” (i.e. no more restrictions on what can be open or what capacity, masks only required if unvaccinated, but venues can still have their own requirements if they want to.) Most people are still masking indoors, even in the mall (I forgot which entrance the restaurant was next to).
Holding out hope that in this area at least, people are taking it slow this time instead of throwing caution to the wind again.
Telling Firefox to open Lagrange for Gemini links
Response to a question about telling Firefox to open Lagrange for Gemini links
I don’t remember exactly how I set that up, but I’ll see if I can configure a fresh profile and write it down this time!
What I remember: I either pasted a gemini: url into the Firefox URL bar or clicked on an actual hyperlink to a gemini: url and it asked what application to open it with.
Firefox also has a per-website security setting on whether a website is allowed to open links in other protocols.
Yeah, that’s basically it. Paste the URL into Firefox, choose the application (either from the list or from the file picker), and check the “always…” box. Then gemini: links in web pages will open the confirmation box and you can click always-allow per site.
(It won’t work on Mastodon, unfortunately, because Mastodon doesn’t turn gemini: URLs into links.)
I’ll write this up on the #gemini capsule too!

Here it is: opening #gemini links in your preferred client from Firefox.

Went for a hike at a nature preserve that I haven’t been to in ages. That was destressing, but also dehydrating.
On the way home I stopped at a grocery store that I also haven’t been to in ages, unless you count curbside pickup. That…was re-stressing.
You want dessert for your dessert???
Kid goes to the kitchen after dinner.
“What are you looking for?”
“Dessert.”
“Did you forget we have cake?”
“No.”

This kid…
Found these two together at a Pokemon Go gym. Seemed appropriate.

“Hi, I loved your article on [subject I’ve never written about] at [link to tag archive and/or a blog post on another subject entirely that might have included two words separated by a half-dozen paragraphs that could conceivably have matched a search vaguely related to the subject they are talking about]. I really think my article at [spammy site] would be a big help to your readers!”
Anita Donut
Yeah, I could use one too, but it turns out they don’t have any at this time of day.
Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve had a donut since last March. I used to only have them when someone brought a box in at work, or occasionally I’d stop by a donut shop on the way to work. Neither of those have happened for a while.
Where’s the, uh, euphemism?
Thinking about the multiple levels of euphemism in the term “bath tissue,” which is tissue, but not something you would use in the bath.
