Thankful Thursday

Today I am grateful for...
- Cleaning supplies and equipment. Dishwashers and washing machines, of course, but also bottle brushes, soap and other detergents, sponges, and kitchen sinks. I'm one of those weird people who find washing dishes relaxing -- I think it's largely because of the soothing effect of warm water on my hands, although playing Tetris in the dishwasher is probably also a factor.
- Regular polytopes, especially in four dimensions, where there are six of them. (Cf. rabbit holes.)
- The WordPress block editor (Gutenberg). If you want to use WordPress, have minimal skills as a graphic designer, and prefer using Emacs and markup languages offline to any WYSI(approximately)WYG editor, Gutenberg is a good choice. (I realize that most -- maybe almost all -- of my readers will disagree with me on this. I don't want to start a flame war here; let's save that for the comments on the post I intend to write Real Soon Now (TM) about my workflow for GoingSideways.blog/.)
- Speaking of going sideways, knowing about carcinisation makes me very happy.
- Finally getting to the head of the queue for a new battery for Molly (to replace the one that's being recalled because it tends to explode when overcharged). It gets installed next week. It will also have nearly 10% more capacity.
Still waiting for a replacement for my recalled CPAP, a flying car, and a sufficiently versatile, sane WordPress theme.
Flying cars
