I think we broke it. It’s saying “can’t find any facts” on everything now..

The trip to the top of the Arch is an unforgettable experience. The echoing sounds of voices and machinery. The repeated adjustments each car makes as it leans then straightens upright again. And once you get to the top, looking out the windows from 630 ft. above the city. It's not to be missed!

The Gateway Arch in St. Louis, MO. This is the capsule that takes you to the top. As a kid, it was one of the first designs that grabbed all my attention in the moment. In the 1970s, this was still fairly futuristic looking. 😆

Current river stages at US flood gauges. Green is good. Red is bad. Purple is really bad. And more rain is coming in the coming days.

Here's a problem that needs to be solved here: I was scrolling through a post listing numbers for suicide, and what did I find right underneath it? An ad for guns. That's just wrong.

On this fine #caturday she told me, loudly and often, to follow her to the kitchen so that she could demand food. You have food, I told her. You have three kinds of food, I said. She tried getting her way with a soul-piercing stare. I didn't give in. She eventually gave up and left to take a nap.

Wait until the Post refugees find out about the Sentient #bodiesofwater . Or the Canadians. Or the attempts to hijack the word cloud with, *ahem*, interesting words. It can become quite the silly place, indeed, but oh so fun!

Best we let people know how silly we are, right up front!!

I was looking for an old post on the dead bird site and ran across this one from 1/30/2023. Present me would like to let past me know that I haven't been disappointed.

The video for this Ring post was hilarious. Mr. Horse Head danced and bobbed, then ran off. Perhaps the worried poster forgot that today is April 1...

Has the Easter Bunny always worn aviator sunglasses at the White House Easter Egg Roll, or is that a nod to "Dark Brandon"?

Just uploaded a video to YouTube and found this new info that must be provided. It's good to see that they're trying to make some sort of effort to identify videos containing AI elements.

I ran across this screen grab from three years ago on the dead bird site. You never know what kind of influence you may have on your students, and it was so heartwarming for Justin to reach out. We went from QBasic to Visual Basic to Java back then, and look at where that humble beginning took him!

I hope you all are having a relaxing #caturday today! It's naptime for furbabies in our house.

My feline fur babies and I are a bit shocked by tonight's Google ad for "Genuine Cat Parts". We wonder what parts of the cat are in the cans, and we agree that absolutely no part of any cat should ever be placed in a can.

My 13-year-old tuxedo cat is starting to get grey fur on her head. Add that to the list of things we have in common.

I don't mind the ads (most of them, anyway). I find they're a good source of amusement. Here's a new one from today. Apparently Google thinks that I'm in the market for a fire truck. I clicked on the ad just to see if it was real. Hmm...what kind of ad rabbit hole will that click take me down?

Lordy, I hate the change to Daylight Savings Time. There's not enough caffeine in the world on a day like this.

Google ads are so confused about who I am. Apparently I want to enroll in a university, get electronics for my bicycle, buy adult diapers, and look into cremation urns. Keep trying, Google ads. You might figure it out eventually.

These ads are an endless source of amusement.

Either:
1) Google thinks this is a dog, or
2) This cat is upset that it's not a service dog

Considering the spouts I'm seeing tonight, this ad that is in my timeline for lubricants seems strangely fitting...

Fun leap day fact:

Leap years occur in all years that are divisible by 4 unless that year also is divisible by 100. But if a year is divisible by 100, then it is a leap year if it also is divisible by 400. That's why 2000 was a leap year, but 2100 will not be one. #math

The ads for the socks-- just feet with ugly ass toes sticking out-- they're back and they won't go away. I've flagged them as inappropriate, flagged them for seeing them before, but they keep coming back.

OH GOD, MAKE THEM STOP!!!!!

Just look at the picture. Once you see it you'll never be able to unsee it again...

Every time I see a picture of House Speaker Mike Johnson he reminds me of Elf on a Shelf. It doesn't help that I think Elf on a Shelf is a creepy looking. It's just a double-dose of visual "yuck" for me..
