Lots of R-rated socks at Zaiser’s in Nisswa. 🙈🙉🙊

Benefit of it being -11 °F? Easy to flash freeze a Rafferty’s Veggie Supreme pizza to bring home for Tammy’s sister.

Open Rafferty's pizza box with a loaded veggie pizza sitting on the hood of a car in freezing cold weather outside a candy shop.

I set up a Guestbook for my site copying @jimmitchell who saw it at @alexwolfe site. Thanks to Guestbooks by meadow! The CSS is default. Maybe @mtt will want to Tiny Theme it? 🤩

I could not care less about Tik Tok, and would consider it an upgrade to the Internet for it to be removed from the US, and frankly everywhere else. The fact people care so much is proof of its intentional addictive design.

What you do when you’re Up North and it feels like -24 °F.

Four suits of cards fanned in sequence from Ace to Jack laid on a dark wood table with two players holding hands of cards. Hand of cards fanned out showing 8 of hearts, 7 of clubs, 6 of hearts, ace of spades, king of hearts, 10 of hearts, and 2 of hearts, with a card game in progress on a wooden table. Chess game in progress on a red and dark wood board, with dark and light wooden pieces mid-match, several captured pieces beside the board.

Grand View Lodge on a very cold -7 °F (feels like -22 °F) night.

Two-story log lodge lit up at night in winter with string lights along balcony, flags flying, and a snow-covered brick path to the entrance. Stone-lined path lit by rows of glowing lanterns descending toward a frozen lake through snow-covered trees at dusk

We had a great time solving Granny’s Recipe Rescue at Copper Cat Escape in 48m 18s! We had five “rookie” misses that we caused us to “face palm”. 🤦 We are coming back tomorrow to do another room! Room 60!

Three people smiling indoors, the middle person holding a printed score sheet from an escape room. Three people pose at Copper Cat Escape holding signs reading We Escaped Because of Me and Granny Would Be Proud

I suspect the reason Apple Intelligence mail categories are only supported on the iPhone is at least in part because of the difficulty with synchronizing that state across multiple devices. Feels similar to People identification in Photos at first, but Apple can’t control the backend on email.

I’ve used Sanebox for a decade to defer emails, but now I’m trying Fastmail and I’m realizing how nice it is to be able to individually specify a defer time per email instead of just having two or three options as folders. Downside is I can only defer in the Fastmail clients.
