High-end luxury breakfast with rare ingredients that only the wealthy can afford topped with exotic fruit.

The frustration of solving CAPTCHAs, let me count the ways:
— pick out the “motorbuses” when some of the trucks are counted as buses.
— pick out the trains when some of the pics are too close up to tell if it’s the side of a train or bus.
— pick out the fire hydrants when there are mailboxes that are counted as hydrants.
— pick out traffic lights. Do I count the housings and the ones so far in the distance that I can’t really tell what I’m looking at?
— pick out the storefronts when I don’t know what little stores look like on the other side of the world.
— when I know I’ve scored 100% but have to do 3 screens regardless.
— CAPTCHA not at all suitable for the visually impaired.
— I still have to solve these things when I have 2-factor authentication turned on.
— CAPTCHA protecting something of life and death importance, like a music streaming service.

I still get a lot of news and unfiltered reading by means of RSS (the feeds) and Telegram messenger.
To get RSS feeds on desktop, the Thunderbird e-mail app and Vivaldi browser have a feed reader you can set up, or there are stand-alone apps. On mobile, there are apps, but I find many barely work.
Telegram is available for everything.
They keep me in the reading. Good ways to get things direct.
Direct e-mail subscriptions also good, but I get buried in that.

JJ, my sofa buddy as I watch Dark Shadows on PlutoTV channel.

Chick-fil-A’s advertising on PlutoTV channel is running the diversity spectrum. They do leave the usual one out.
I can at least smile in amusement at the consistency. 😬
They need to bring back that lemon pie with the meringue topping.

An important part of my recovery therapy.

I like this. In short, whatever method you use to sign up (online, for example), you should be able to unsubscribe just as easily.
I helped two friends get rid of subscriptions to the Greensboro News and Record a couple of years ago. It was Byzantine.
I like that some credit cards have a unique number generator with ability to switch the number off and on. PayPal is also an option. Unauthorized rebills get declined.

Treat after physical therapy.

Five weeks after knee surgery, and look at this. I can ride a bike.
Today was my first street ride. Previously, I only rode the bike on a trainer. My physical therapist coached me yesterday on how to handle it safely getting on and off and street riding. It worked.
This bicycle has made my physical therapy a big success. 🚴
