What does your pup do for relaxation? If it involves fiction (movies, theatre, etc.), music, or books what kind(s) do they like best?

dw_maintenanceGood morning, afternoon, and evening!
We're doing some database and other light server maintenance this weekend (upgrading the version of MySQL we use in particular, but also probably doing some CDN work.)
I expect all of this to be pretty invisible except for some small "couple of minute" blips as we switch between machines, but there's a chance you will notice something untoward. I'll keep an eye on comments as per usual.
Ta for now!

Studying for the Bar, in the Bar
Oct. 22nd, 2025 08:23 pmtake_that posting in milliways_bar Phoenix is in the bar, at a table with his nose in a book. Next to it is a notebook, in which he occasionally scribbles a sentence or two.
Anyone passing by might notice that he's clean shaven, and has switched out his tracksuit for a sweater and jeans.
An even keener eye might notice that the book he's reading is a textbook for this year's bar exam.
Slowly but surely, Phoenix is getting his life back on track.

AWS outage
Oct. 20th, 2025 10:11 amalierak posting in dw_maintenanceDW is seeing some issues due to today's Amazon outage. For right now it looks like the site is loading, but it may be slow. Some of our processes like notifications and journal search don't appear to be running and can't be started due to rate limiting or capacity issues. DW could go down later if Amazon isn't able to improve things soon, but our services should return to normal when Amazon has cleared up the outage.
Edit: all services are running as of 16:12 CDT, but there is definitely still a backlog of notifications to get through.
Edit 2: and at 18:20 CDT everything's been running normally for about the last hour.

What are your pup's sleeping habits? Can they nod off anywhere? Do they sleep lightly or like the dead? What's their bedroom or sleeping quarters like? etc.
