I see an outlet mysteriously placed on high.

One of the life hacks I’ve been using lately is ChatGPT, to help me navigate non-intuitive websites.
I need that life hack because almost every website is non-intuitive to me, at least at first.
Sometimes I ask ChatGPT for life hacks regarding non-intuitive medical conditions and people, too.
Yesterday, I used life hacks to design an album cover for my live performances at the Lilypad last year.
What life hacks do you see in today’s images?

The Daily Bitch Calendar is one of my long-time life hacks.
Here are some life hacks on YouTube.

Also, when I was watching this on YouTube, I noticed one of my life hacks near the end.

Thanks to all who are here for these life hacks, including YOU!
When the world seems senseless, I especially appreciate a sense of humor.
Yesterday morning, on my way into work, I listened to the late Tom Lehrer, who was an early influence on my sense of humor.
Do you see a sense of humor in my images for today?
.
I love my son’s sense of humor, which came through in his standup comedy and which shows up even when he’s presenting about Category Theory at a Quantum Physics and Logic conference in Bulgaria.
.
I’m very proud.
Thanks to all who have a sense of humor, including YOU!
During these difficult times, I’m working on my album of original songs and thinking about music that has gotten me through difficult times.
When I was a kid, the late Tom Lehrer’s music got me through difficult times.
As I’ve gotten older, Paul Simon, Todd Rundgren, Pat Metheny, and Jacob Collier have helped me get through difficult times.
Do you see music for difficult times in my images for today?

Here’s the Tom Lehrer album that helped me get me through difficult times when I was a little kid:

What’s been your music for difficult times?
Thanks to all who help me get through difficult times, including YOU!
I had a good day yesterday, despite these being bad days for democracy and human rights.
Can you see why yesterday was a good day for me?
.
Uploading this to my YouTube channel yesterday reminded me of a good day last year when I gave a concert of my original songs and donated all the proceeds to ActBlue.
.
What’s a good day for you?
Thanks to all who help me have a good day, including YOU!
Last night, when my busy mind was trying to make sense of all this, I fell asleep listening to somebody making sense about Quantum Physics.
.
Making sense of Quantum Physics seemed to include the realizations that the world (including each of us) is 99.999999999% empty space, nothing ever touches anything else, and things can exist in more than one place simultaneously.
My way of making sense of all this is to blog daily, facilitate therapy groups, and create and share original songs.
.
Making sense of all my songs includes assigning a genre to each tune and I don’t know if they are inspirational, folk, comedy, pop, vocal, children’s music, vocal, or (as ChatGPT suggests) spoken word (?).
While you’re making sense of all this, here are my other images for today.
.
Here’s the YouTube video making sense of Quantum Physics:
.
Sweet dreams!
Thanks to all who are doing their best making sense of all this, including YOU!
In the midst of caring for others, I am doing my best to practice self care.
Part of my self care is creating these blog posts every day. Another part of my self care is not agonizing over what to include in each post.
I would like to extend that self care to not agonizing over anything.
.
Here’s one of my songs about self care, which I am may not include in my live album.
.
How do you practice self care?
Thanks to all who help me with self care, including YOU!
Since I was a small child, I have noticed and appreciated comforting voices.
Yesterday, I saw a new specialist about the discomforting noises I hear in my head when I talk and his comforting voice described another possible diagnosis: Middle Ear Myoclonus.
.
It’s comforting to believe that there is a possible solution to my own voice being less comforting to me.
Let’s see if there are any comforting voices in my blog post for today.
Ahhhhh. The comforting voice of the Daily Bitch.
Here’s what I find on YouTube when I look for “comforting voices”.
.
Thanks to all who have comforting voices, including YOU.
“Every yes is a thousand nos” is a great quote from John Mark Comer.
Whatever I say “yes” to these days — whether it’s writing, composing, promoting, protesting, working, singing, socializing, or relaxing — I am inevitably saying “no” to everything else for a time. And, yes, that sometimes bothers me.
Now I shall say “yes” to some images (and “no” to thousands of other possibilities).
.
Thanks to my husband Michael saying “yes” to housework, I can say “no” to that and “yes” to many other things.
Here’s what I find on YouTube when I search for “every yes is a thousand nos.”
.
Thanks to you for saying “yes” to this post and “no” (temporarily) to a thousand other things!
The most curious thing about the USA is how people reelected Donald Trump as President.
The most curious thing about ChatGPT is how it helps me while I’m waiting for INR results and other things.
The most curious thing about that last paragraph is that “INR” links to the blog post I wrote in 2016 after my heart valve replacement surgery, rather than a simple definition of INR.
What is the most curious thing in this blog post?
.
The most curious thing is the nostalgia I am feeling about this song I wrote last year about EPIC, the hospital’s Electronic Health Record System.
.
The most curious thing is that you are here for these random thoughts, feelings, pictures, and songs I publish every day!
