What's on your mind? (2025) - good way to start... even if a bit early... :-)

I think fingers have to be warm enough to work on a phone fingerprint ID , but there are apps that work in cold weather.

I like their little ‘buzzes’ they make and then curl up tighter. The roomate and the 15+# black cat (he’s now 17+#) snore in unison sometimes. It’s cute, but annoying.:thinking:

What’s on my mind right now is cake, which is almost always the case.

You and Sunshine both – there isn’t much left of the chocolate cake I made yesterday (one big piece or two small pieces). My girl just tore through that chocolate cake, but I’m glad to see her eat and gain back some of the weight she lost.

Thanks. Here’s what my android has:

But after adding my wife and using that “show on lock screen” option, her contact page now lists her in the Group: Emergency Contacts, but she doesn’t show on the lock screen. I’ll do some googling…

I’m not sure if it’s temp or what, but I can tell you that it will not work if the finger isn’t alive.

At my brother’s funeral, before the service, when the family went to view the body, we tried unlocking his iPhone using his thumb.

Didn’t work.

Are you sure he used his thumb? I use a different finger.

That’s a good point! So do I.

Yes. When my fingers are cold they don’t even work in some apps. Then I use my IPencil.

Do they go yellow or blue/black in cold weather or water?

It truly takes a unique talent to trip over a bathroom carpet at 4AM & slide into the lever that opens the small waste metal basket, resulting in a 7’’ long bruise in the exact shape of the lever.

I’m special like that :smiley: :woozy_face:

Thank you both :slight_smile:

I bruise like a banana (I almost wrote tomato bahahaha), and shit doesn’t heal as quickly as it used to. But hey — at least I didn’t break anything, save for a small nick in the drywall from the basket :roll_eyes:

Whew. I’m also a person with a talent for bruising so I feel your pain.

I bruise so easily now (due to blood thinners). Frustrating as hell because I don’t remember what the hell I did to cause a bruise on my stomach, my right arm near the wrist, my right hip, my left shin… The only one I can name is where they took blood recently in my left elbow area.

I’m like a toddler who doesn’t seem to understand the concept of space. I swear I still occasionally bodycheck the corner of the kitchen counter with my hip, despite having lived in the same house for well over a decade.

I also managed to acquire a really nasty one on the inside of my left ankle once while getting out of the car to deliver groceries to a client, and closing it just a little too quickly.

Major talent :roll_eyes:

What about those bruises that look like someone stabbed you with a pen? Like, just a tiny circle on the inside or outside of my forearm? Unless my PIC is poking me randomly at night, I haven’t a clue how those even happen :thinking: :woman_shrugging:t2:
