When you hit middle age you really only have two choices: you can get fat and lazy until you roll over and die, or you can can get off your ass and do something, like maybe ride a bike.
Bluntness
I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

Good News
Well, we've got 28 (F) for a temp and partly cloudy skies. Occasionally the sun pops through, so if the snow is ever heavy enough we might to see a snowbow. Temps are on the rise, though, with a high this afternoon expected to be in the upper 30s (F) and tomorrow's high in the mid 40s (F). Sunday? According to forecasters, that will be another cold one. I suspect this will be an interesting winter.
My new piece of equipment arrived and I spent most of yesterday putting all the parts together. I'm almost finished. One of the things I found amusing was that when I purchased it, some of the complaints were that assembly took a few hours. Gimme a break, people. But then these complaints usually come from people who have never assembled anything. The only mistake I made was in moving my desk. I thought this would give me more space, well, I was proven wrong, so once assembly is complete, I'll be moving the it back. Here's a pic of what it looked like unpacked.
The game of the year awards were held last evening. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 ran away with the awards winning more than any game ever. I love this game, (spoiler) about a mother trying to keep her dead son alive in a painting during the Belle Epoque, and a father who wants to destroy the painting to let their son die. Sandfall Entertainment, which produced the game is an independent studio. Many of the people who worked on it have never worked on a video game before. The classical style music is original. The artwork is amazing.
And yesterday, the Republicans in Indiana told the Orange Anus to shut up. They voted against redistricting. His party knows that if they lose the midterms, he will be impeached a again, and this time America will get rid of not only him, but many of his minions. That's if he's still alive, rumors abound that he's going downhill fast.
For laughs, Kristi Noem walked out of Congressional hearing, exorcised perhaps by a priest and protestors chanting, "the power of Christ compels you!" I wonder if she has any sort of an inkling of what's in store for her, or is she just that stupid. Inkling might be too weak of a word. Just think, she may have spent all that time and money on plastic surgery just to have her face wrinkle to hell in a prison cell.
The Indiana thing was straight up Mafia Boss bullshit. For real. But they told him to eff off. And I can't wait until Cankles croaks. For real. The Dog Killer was humiliated in that hearing (she was unprepared and full of herself) and then lied to get out (they fact-checked as she was going out). My one hope is that all of Cheeto's minions will have their share of pain when he's gone.

Oh, and I love the premise of that game!!
