Thursday This n That

I'm enjoying being back on Twitter/X.  I'm reading a lot of interesting stuff that FB isn't showing me.  FB has been a real pain in the ass since the election, putting all sorts of crap I don't care about in my feed and hiding the stuff I've said I actually do want to see.  I've resorted to going to individual pages to see what I'm missing, which is kind of a pain, but necessary.  X doesn't do that.  So yay.

Speaking of hiding stuff, I think FB has shadowbanned me.  I hardly ever get responses to anything I post on my own page... loads of spammy stuff on my marketing posts in Groups, but not on my own page.  :shrug:  I gotta be me.  Of course, I'm not getting a ton of reactions to my X posts either, but I haven't been active on there in 8 years, so I'm not surprised.

Coffee is good. It makes it so I can do thinky things.

I was out of tea and my throat's been scratchy, so I zipped over to the Dollar General to pick some up.  They didn't have a wide selection - green tea, iced tea, Lipton.  I ended up getting the Lipton.  100 packets for like $6/$7 - 4 packs of 25 in little sleeves and wrapped in gold foil.  Ooo, fancy.  I was pretty excited.  It has to be better than Great Value tea, right?  Nope.  It seems like every other teabag tastes like mulch.  I could've gone out and grazed in the yard for free.  Derp.

Editing's coming along.  I'm averaging about 6 pages a day, which is depressing but it's my own damn fault for writing the book in the wrong POV.  Ultra-derp.

This morning, we heard a flock of snow geese going over headed south.  This makes me happy.

I don't know if I've ever mentioned Funky Chicken.  He's a neighbor's rooster and he does not crow right.  It's kind of sad and pathetic.  Well, Neighbor got him a buddy.  The new rooster crows correctly.  We now have the two of them crowing back and forth, like they're trying to teach each other how do it right.  ROFL

Okay, that ought to be about it today.  Have a good one wherever you are and whatever you're doing.  Hasta la bye-bye.

  1. I try to hunt your posts down to like them so hopefully they'll show up more in my feed. I agree with FB though why they've decided my stuff isn't work showing, I don't know. I don't get political--as a rule--over there. Heck, there are times it won't even show comments on my posts. 😝 Coffee is great. I have a new meme for doing the things with coffee. Tea is tea. Or mulch. 😆 Yay for bird life--geese and funny roosters. And yay for editing.

    It's Thursday. I should be looking for the writing prompt to get some new words.

    Speaking of words, I keep forgetting to actually think about adding scenes to the books I'm compiling because I'm enjoying being back with this particular band of Wolves. And Hannah.

    There's finally frost on the pumpkin and we're on Day 2 of having the heater on. My heating pad died at 2 a.m. LG is going to Walgreens today to replace both of ours as his died early in the week.

    Speaking of birds, the crows like it when Jake doesn't finish his kibble. They like it. And yes, I've been known to toss a cupful out even when there are no leftovers.

    Not much else going on around here. I have things to do but the coffee isn't kicking in. I just want a nap.

    Have a great day! Later, tater.
