The FAA @FAANews We estimate that a service restoration for air traffic control will take around 2 weeks but it could be up to 4 weeks. We are hopeful that we will be able to bring the airports back up in a degraded state sooner. Refer to our status page for updates: faa.gov

Discovered that my phone's USB port was acting up, refusing to charge unless cables were held just right. Cracked it open and found evidence of water ingress at some point. Popped the USB module out, flushed it with contact cleaner, put it back together, and it's working fine now

Those Winter Sundays by Robert Hayden Sundays too my father got up early and put his clothes on in the blueblack cold, then with cracked hands that ached from labor in the weekday weather made banked fires blaze. No one ever thanked him. I’d wake and hear the cold splintering, breaking. When the rooms were warm, he’d call, and slowly I would rise and dress, fearing the chronic angers of that house, Speaking indifferently to him, who had driven out the cold and polished my good shoes as well. What did I know, what did I know of love’s austere and lonely offices?

I fixed my camera's squeaky mirror "Canon cough" by injecting it with Walkman oil that may or may not contain trace amounts of estradiol valerate and human blood. This absolutely has to be some sort of tgirl stereotype bingo

And meanwhile I'm using nail polish to fix my Walkman (gotta lock an adjustment screw at a specific position and nail polish works pretty well for that).

After reading up on the Canon AE-1, I've realized that my camera's been suffering from the infamous Canon Cough this whole time. Luckily, I think I'll be able to fix it once I get back to Indiana and have access to my Walkman oil and E shot needles
