Omg, Churu. I'm watching these two and their person suggested I give them a Churu. I don't give them to my cat so I had no idea. I also had no idea what the little spoon was for. The grey girl is insane for them and has very sharp claws. 😆#Cats #BlueskyCats #Catsofbluesky

For those of you using QUICKBOOK ONLINE. QB is not liable in any way for audits due to their faulty AI. It started changing the names on incoming band transactions without authorization. It changed a large auto repair from Motors to MOTEL and left it in automotive repair category. Audit trigger!

We're looking to remodel house. Told the architect I wanted a place dedicated for the cat box. He looked at me like I asked for something obscene. "Can't you just put it in the bathroom?" Yay! Just what I want, a nice 'new' place...with a catbox next to the toilet. Should have dumped him then. #Cats

Why are so many companies trying to trick you into using their services? Just got an official looking form. Looking closely, it's to pay a service to file a "statement of information" (for $243) I have already filed on my own using the simple state web interface.

Ugh, my tablet figured out my age. Now I get nothing but "seniors swear by" garbage ads or workouts for people in chairs. I freaking hate it. It was only on my laptop before.

I work out 6 days a week and am tired of getting ads about beginning workouts in chairs. Turned off weight loss ads in ad choices. Now that's ALL I get. A firehose. Asked google, and oh yeah, if you turn off a type of ad, you'll get more of that type. Lots more.

WTF is up with #QuickBooks? It changed Santa Monica Motors to SM Motel when it put it in QB. The data is correct, it was an interpretation by QB. Motel?!? That caused a bunch of questions around the office.

Wow. Just asked ChatGPT a health question. Answer seemed like BS to me, so I asked chat about that. It admitted it was a lazy, misleading answer. It matched my tone and it thought that was the answer i was looking for! I called it out for lying. It assured me it will be truthful from now on. What?!?

Saw Air last night at the Hollywood Bowl. Great show and whomever designed the set and lighting should win an award. It put the emphasis on the music while delivering a spacey modern yet nostalgic feel. Really cool.

I live near a park and see nannies interacting with children constantly. I see moms interacting mostly with their phones.

I hate getting a new game, then waiting for install and updates only to find the first hour is nearly all cut scenes. Ugh, I hate them and really don't care about the story. Red Dead Redemption 2 is the only one I can remember liking the story parts. #AssasinsCreedShadows

Business insurance co sent over an application. Asked agent why as we’ve had this insurance more than a decade without any claims. He assured me it was no biggie, just a formality. Filled it out, now my insurance is being cancelled because it doesn’t meet their “appetite”🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

A company we are doing consulting work for is holding up last month's payment, $91K, over a missing $1 receipt. ONE DOLLAR. I wonder if quickbooks AI is helping them with their accounting.

I'm confused by the new Cuervo/Instacart ad. Can you order strippers from Instacart now?

Wowza! Just dropped GalaxieGuy off at LAX. As I was whizzing up Sepulveda at 52 mph, a guy on a razor scooter passed me like I was standing still. Crazy dangerous! I almost pulled in front of him as he was very hard to spot. Max legal speed is 15.

Geez. We shipping a computer board to the UK for repair. They got it, it didn't need repair after all. To get it back, we will have to pay a $500 tariff. No money changed hands during this transaction.

Ripley developed a little bump where she got vaccinated. Needle biopsy showed lots of cell types, vet advised removing. She had surgery Monday morning. It was just under the skin, with no attachments. She did lots of snoozing until treat time last night. Also, beans! #Cats #BlueskyCats
