January 2019 was rough. I had two deaths in the family ten days apart and it just went on from there. My life didn't get back to normal until around April. This year has started off completely different.

On Monday we were able to finally buy the house behind us for dirt cheap. It was run down and hadn't been lived in for seven years. Papers signed it's ours. We thought the next step was to get a demolition crew to come out and take it down. Apparently the city had already scheduled plus paid a crew two weeks ago for that. I came home two hours ago and it's all gone. We didn't have to pay for it!! I'm so happy and now I'm gonna go buy some more turtles.

Oh cool.

Wish I could have pet turtles. I used to live near a creek full of them.

I love all my pets but the turtles are the most fun to watch. I mostly have different box turtles, three spotted turtles and one big yellow foot tortoise roaming around in the backyard. We made pathways along the parameter of the fence with tiny little obstacle courses for exercise. Watching them clamoring over rocks and tunnels is pretty funny. Now that we have more space I can start adding ponds. You can DM me if you want suggestions on what type goes well with different environments. ♥️

My cold ended at least 3 days ago. So why does my nose feel so thick? It's stuffed to the point where I have to blow it for 3 minutes straight. Then I can breathe fine again until it slowly starts to congest again. Literally everything else is back to normal.

Bf is always telling me to close the shades because people might be able to see me. I'm always walking around nude because I really didn't think anyone could see. Now I'm probably on the internet somewhere.



Close the shades and the landlord across the street will have to drop the rent....

It turns out that my idea of humane pest removal was way off, hence the reason they all laughed at me when I called around. In my mind I thought they would capture the cute little mice and relocate them to a beautiful prairie filled with wild flowers. So I kept saying "..when you release them..." they'd laugh and cut me off. No it means they will be captured and humanely euthanized. I was not ready for that.

I'm not keeping my shades closed. I like the natural light and when I get home I relax by taking off all my clothes. If people see me walking around naked that's tough luck for them, they shouldn't be looking into my apartment in the first place!!

I tried that gender swapping feature on Snapchat, and I’m not happy with the result. Not that I looked bad, it’s just that I’ve always felt that, if I had been born as a guy, I’d have ended up being the type to join a biker “club”. The filter didn’t really convey that.

I just received an email from Chaturbate. I'd asked them if we are allowed to use characters (whether it be cartoon, 2d, 3d) in place of ourselves in a live stream because I would dead ass do it.

They said yes. As long as I don't portray the character as under-aged.

They said yes :thinking: :spin:

I ended up catching a mouse in a somewhat humane way.

I used a sticky trap. Then once the mouse landed in it I put it in a box, poured coconut oil on it to loosen it from the trap, then set it free in the outdoors.

The mouse was a bit freaked out cause it thought I was going to kill it, and it did not like being stuck (and that sticky glue is heavy duty) but it’s better than those traps chopping its head off

Aww this is SO cool

At first when you mentioned sticky traps I cringed, because most people simply throw the trap and the trapped mouse into the garbage. A very bad way to die. But your idea is fantastic

Every once in a while I'm flying I'll watch a movie we thought was good in the 80s and I can't believe how shitty stuff was. Granted, I was a kid, and had no taste, but still.

Hey Bahuba, you've visited just about everywhere, you know anyone in China? Are they being affected by the coronavirus? I suspect it's worst than they say.

Hey Bahuba, you've visited just about everywhere, you know anyone in China? Are they being affected by the coronavirus? I suspect it's worst than they say.

I actually am struggling with this right now. I have dozens of "professional friends" in China, people I've gotten drunk with, talked life with, joked with, done very late nights with. But they are not real friends per se; and Chinese culture, though it is similar to Western culture in a business setting, is different when in a private setting.

So I've been wanting to do the Western thing and reach out and say "I'm here for you, I support you, is there anything you need, what can I do, etc" but I don't know the way to talk to someone from Chinese culture who is under extreme duress but can't really admit to it, for fear of presenting a negative face. I'm worried my concern would appear disingenuous. Then reading this, I now worry I'm over thinking it. Luckily I don't have any friends in Wuhan, but I have friends in Kunming, Jiangsu, Shanghai, Beijing, and Guangdong. So I've thought myself into a corner - I haven't written anyone, which is probably worse, because I might offend them.

This coronavirus is starting to look like California is the main area of concern right now in USA. UGHHH. I've been saving up money, a mask, cleaning supplies, and food in case I need to chill at home for a month. Working in close contact with people is going to end for me and I will have no source of income if it gets bad. I'm nervous and hope it gets contained. Think we are at 20 positive in Cali and 8400 being monitored here. I nonstop check it daily. N95 and N99 masks are sold out online which says a lot.

They said on the news "don't worry if you are healthy you will be fine." Okay but if your immune system is crap you don't address that issue to the public. It's an instant issue. I'm so worried. loll.

I ordered landscaping rocks for my yard and didn't realize that when delivered they would be dumped at the edge of the driveway. Like the dump truck unloaded and then peeled out into the sunset. LMAO I had not thought this through at all. But luckily a neighbor had rented an excavator and moved them to the backyard this morning. Like we don't even have a wheelbarrow! When we first moved here no one on the block really talked to each other. It feels nice to see that start to change.

Yeah, they normally won’t go into driveways unless you sign a waiver. Your typical driveway is built very thin, and isn’t intended for vehicles of such weight. They don’t want to be on the hook for a cracked driveway.

That makes sense. Unfortunately they didn't stick around long enough to explain that. One guy knocked on the door for a signature while the other did the dumping. I'll be more prepared next time.

Alright, serious question for the blues here…

So, a bit of backstory… today at work, one of the techs from our side of the shop (let’s call him K) stopped a relatively new tech from “the other side” (who we’ll call M) and asked him if he wanted to see a magic trick. So M said yes, and K started positioning his hands, then stopped and said he needed to take some measurements. So he grabbed a tape measure - one of those 50’ ones with a metal case, and took a measurement from the bridge of M’s nose down, then held it out parallel to the floor, looked at the measurement, locked the tape measure, and then let the heavy end go so it swung like a pendulum to hit M in his balls, and everyone laughed their asses off.

Which, I laughed as well, but it makes me wonder…

Now, I’ve more or less been told that if I hit someone in their balls for any reason which isn’t purely defensive, I’m a horrible person for doing it. Not that it’s something I do, but that aside. I also get it’s a “bro code” violation to do this; a notion further reinforced by the media, for example…


https://youtu.be/1LxDWSYgiUc

So… is it an agonizing, horrific thing that’s blasphemous in a sense to do to each other, or is it a big funny? Because deeds and words aren’t telling me the same story here, and it’s leaving me a little confused.

It is both... much like The Three Stooges poking each other in the eye. From the description, it sounds like the "magic trick" is actually thought out and results in there being little kinetic energy at the point/moment of impact, so M was not in danger of being actually injured from the stunt. Since it involves a piece of metal, it is less humiliating than it would have been if K had used his hand and slapped or grabbed M's scrotum.
