When I was little, my mom used to send me to the store with a note that said to sell me cigarettes, and that they were for her. When I started smoking, I used to reuse the notes to get my own smokes. I got my first fake ID at 13 so I could buy beer.

I’ve got some extended family visiting for the week, and the weather is supposed to be great, so I’m gonna be doing a lot of outdoor cooking. Brisket, ribs, pulled pork, smoked turkey drumsticks, a bacon-wrapped smoked meatloaf, plus a ton of sides. Might grill some fish if we get lucky and manage to catch some in the crick. The pool is finally warm enough to swim in without freezing to death, which means we can play some water volleyball. On Thursday we’re gonna go see a free concert by a Lady Gaga cover band. I don’t go back to work until Friday, so I’ll have plenty of time to hang out with loved ones I don’t see as often as I’d like. It’s gonna be a pretty great week for me, all in all.

I was on reddit every day for damn near 20 years, and if I’m being 100% honest, the fediverse is 10,000% better. The only problem is that not enough people interact. I’ve never seen a post with more than like 200 comments. It feels a bit empty here. But, on the other hand, 200 decent comments is better than 2000 shitty ones.
Once this place gets a few more users, it’s gonna be the GOAT.
