Sat Aug 4 09:15:05 EDT 2018 Slept from midnight to eight. Woke briefly around four. High of ninety and sunny today. Goals: - A D&D thing Done. - Clean apartment Some. Watered plants, vacuumed, tidied. For fuck's sake: https://www.reddit.com/r/Roku/comments/7dier5/issue_with_pbs_channel/ > I had doubleclick.net ad server blocked on my router. This causes the PBS app to crash. I whitelisted the ROKU from blocked sites and PBS app now works again. https://daily.jstor.org/the-toadmen-masters-of-equine-magic/?utm_source=marketing&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=twitter > A strange initiation ritual involving a toad was required for members of a secret caste of nineteenth-century horse mystics. > In the folklore of East Anglia (eastern England), a man who performed this rite became a “Toadman,” a kind of witch known for having a powerful affinity with horses. A Toadman could calm a raging horse, or turn a tame one wild, so that no one else could calm it. > Becoming a Toadman would have been an appealing prospect to the typical nineteenth-century East Anglian ploughman. As skilled laborers, ploughmen were a notch above farmhands, but they lacked the clout of the landowners. A good ploughman was always in demand, but a bad one quickly became a figure of gossip. With a position like that, at once rewarding and tenuous, a little supernatural help could hardly go amiss. Lots of Ennie wins this year for the crew. I really should go to Gencon one year. Watched a few episodes of Legion. Aubrey Plaza is always fun. Lunch: coffee, macaroni and tomato Dinner: Chinese
