Conserve your A/C usage this summer, though.

Is anyone even left to check anyway?

I mean, yeah. But getting a couple of tubes inside them snipped was pretty easy.

I was going to say, if we’re talking old man we’ll need to flip the green circles.

I showed the gal I’m seeing that the painters painting the exterior building of my apartment complex painted over my deck railing. This was her contribution.

I fully switched to my ereader the last time I moved. I need a book smell candle.

I literally never watch shorts. I’ve selected the option to show less shorts on my computer, I select the not interested option on each individual video on my TV when the row of them shows up, and they still constantly come back.

I think a lot of people convolute introversion with social anxiety.

My social life vastly improved when I switched to working remotely. When I wasn’t, I was burning all my social energy at work and nights and weekends I’d go into hermit mode. Now I’m sitting on my social charger all day and have the energy to hang out with my friends after work/on weekends. Lots of them don’t believe I’m introverted.

A bartender friend coined the term “closet extrovert” to describe me and I don’t hate it.

As a naturally introverted person, working remotely has vastly improved my social life, well-being, and productivity.

I used to burn all my social energy at the office, and when nights and weekends came around, I’d go into hermit mode to recover. Work drained me. Now I’m sitting on my social charger all day while I’m working, and I actually have the energy to see my friends after work and have much better balance in my life.

I’m fortunate to work for a company that let everyone decide what works best for them when RTO mandates started going around, and they get better work from me because of it. This CEO can get fucked.

Isn’t this just a hero?

 
 
 
 
 

I have a Snap Grip Luxe on the back of my Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition, which has wireless Qi charging but is not magnetic. On phones, the Snap Grip allows for passthrough wireless charging, so when I mounted it, I held my Kindle up to a wireless charging stand until I found the spot where it started charging, marked the top of the back with some tape, and mounted it roughly where I thought the charging coil might be (though there's some uncertainty because I don't know exactly where the charging hardware is inside my stand). It doesn't work.

It's possible this feature just doesn't work with the Kindle, but I have a new Kindle arriving soon and will have another shot at this, so I was curious if there was some way I can precisely locate and mark where the charging coil is on the back of my new Kindle to at least eliminate that factor. Any ideas?
