I did not see this coming. The son-in-law of the blue and black dress lady was charged with trying to kill his wife.

Ignoring Radioactive Waste for 75 Years
From Missouri Independent
Generations of children who grew up alongside Coldwater Creek have, in recent decades, faced rare cancers, autoimmune disorders and other mysterious illnesses they have come to believe were the result of exposure to its waters and sediment.
This is certainly true of my mom. She grew up around and played in the creek. She has had multiple cancers, autoimmune disease, and other health issues.
Radioactive waste was known to pose a threat to Coldwater Creek as early as 1949, records show. K-65, a residue from the processing of uranium ore, was stored in deteriorating steel drums or left out in the open near the creek at multiple spots, according to government and company reports.
Fuck these people. Fuck them all.
Everyone loves my dog and wants to give him treats. Last night that came back to haunt me. Poor little guy must have had too much and woke me up on five separate occasions to take him out. He seems to be doing better now but boy am I tired.
Tools more than 18,000 years old have been unearthed in Oregon.
Dear Apple - Knock it Off
Dear Apple,
STOP REOPENING APPS AND WINDOWS AFTER A REBOOT FROM A SOFTWARE UPDATE IF YOU DON’T HAVE THE SETTING CHECKED.
For fuck’s sake, this has been going on for far too long and it annoys the shit out of me. If the OS and apps actually behaved properly after a reboot and auto-reopen, I wouldn’t have a problem with it, but they never do so I ultimately have to reboot a second time.
KNOCK IT OFF.
Sincerely, Annoyed Customer.
I never want to use my iPhone as an external webcam on my Mac. I don’t know why every time I accidentally hover over camera settings (on accident) in Teams it prompts me. Leave me alone.
I can’t believe Poop Fiction is a thing but also love that it is.
Matt Langford has a great post on how to verify your domain on Nostr and Bluesky for micro.blog users. This comes in handy if you don’t have access to modify DNS records.
Apple really needs to do something about Siri getting triggered accidentally. It is happening way too often for me, multiple times per week. This is only going to get worse in iOS17 if you drop the “hey” part.
I really do enjoy Nathan Pyle’s Strange Planet comic. It’ll be interesting to see how the animated series on Apple TV Plus pans out.
I really have no interest in Threads. Did people not learn their lessons with the fall of Facebook and even how bad Instagram has become? People actually still trust Meta as a company? Weird.
21 seasons of Mythbusters is on Max. I may not leave the house for a while.
Christian fascists are just making up evidence to get to the Supreme Court now. This is a sham court.
I never got a notification from the state that my plates expired this month. Luckily, I just happened to look at my plate and noticed and was able to renew last week. It looks like I’m getting the new tags int he mail today. Just in time.
If you were around in the 1990s you probably remember destroying your fingers on the PowerCheck meter on Duracell batteries. Did you know there’s a fascinating history behind it, including a patent battle?
Proton Pass has launched. I love Proton’s services and can’t wait to move from Bitwarden to Proton Pass but there’s two things preventing me from moving: Ability to store credit cards and a Safari extension for the Mac. Once it has those two things I think I’m all in.
