Anyone else notice the annoying trend on algorithm-based social media where a clip from an older movie is posted where it's not immediately obvious what the movie is, but it's very familiar, with the text something like "I will never forget this scene after all this time" and you have to click through to the replies and find the one person saying "what's the movie???" then click those replies to find the person who knows the movie and is kind enough to post the title. So then the algorithm boosts the post thinking users really want to see what people are saying about it but they're just looking for the title. It's kind of like engagement bait but not quite. It's like nostalgia targeted information bait. I dunno. Anyone? Just me? Anyway that's why I like it here better. You never see that here.
Being a home-owner/mortgage-payer-offerer/bank-servitude-ador sucks because you have to pay close to a grand when the dishwasher that came with the house breaks. But at least I can have as much smashed avo on fancy sourdough toast as I want in peace (which is exactly what I'm doing right now while the dishwasher runs. Delicious!)
Kinda glad we had to go back to a month and a bit of hand-washing before getting this new replacement dishwasher so we could truly experience the difference it makes. Hanging up my rubber dish gloves for good now. Feels amazing!
(Didn't actually wear gloves but you get the metaphor)

Bit of a mess around with the new dishwasher we've been waiting a month to arrive. They called us a few days ago saying there was a problem with the shipment and that the model was discontinued so we had to pick a different one. Luckily there was one we liked in stock with next day delivery. So today my plan is to properly waterproof the area under the sink and install this new dishwasher that just arrived!
