    So grateful it was just lint. It's an 11 Pro which isn't old, definitely not new, but I have been trying to not be on the OMG HAVE TO UPGRADE NOW train that so many people are on.
    I have a 12 Pro and I do not think I have ever used the plug. I have a wireless charger in my den (where I work), on my bedside and my car has one built in. Before I went wireless I used to clean out the port with vinyl toothpicks, they worked great.

    Less learned - clean your damn charging ports people!
    I had that same issue with my last iPhone (a 7, just upgraded to 13), and had the same solution. Battery life still sucked, but at least it charged like new.

    My last lab, Olive, ate like a cat. You'd feed her in the morning, and the next day, there was a really good chance that breakfast from the day before was still there. Now Rocinante, complete opposite. We had to buy some of those slow feeder bowls because that dog has no control.
    My Pit/Lab mix eats like the late Olive. Some days I don't think he eats at all.

    Can't get pictures at the moment (they're on my phone, which is syncing,) but Imajica arrived yesterday.

    This book is MASSIVE! I took some pictures comparing it to CD's IT and Imajica is actually a tad thicker. I'm not familiar with the story (never read any Barker before) so I don't have any opinion to how well the art matches the story, but the purple slipcase is amazing. Just absolutely beautiful.

    Things seem to be returning to normal, it's just a super slow process. I am glad it wasn't anymore more serious.
    Me too. I think goat DNA got mixed in with Lab DNA somewhere in the evolutionary process. They'll eat anything.
