How many fucking letters can I use? I’m sick of editing this shit, just fucking accept the bio, damn.
I really like toads. Specifically Fowler toads. They look grumpy all the time, in a good way.
Marmots also rule hard.
I like a lot of bugs, but a recent focus of mine, as I found one in my shower and didn’t know they lived in my state, is a bristletail. They’re like a shrimp that does backflips for some reason. They’re one of the older bugs out their, and I think possibly related to sea scorpions, but I’ll have to recheck that particular knowledge base when I get the motivation next.
My day is about to get hectic. I’m building a house, and left a room intact from an old build to qualify as a remodel for tax and appraisal purposes. I was getting ready to install some tile so I can put a toilet in, and the salvaged room floor collapsed. After ripping out the subfloor, I found that a porch attached to the house was hollow and filled with dirt, which rotted the wooden sill plate on the foundation. So I have to Jack the house up to replace the boards and then build a new floor.
Any advice I get on the fix seems to come from flippers. I don’t want landlord repairs, I want permanent fixes. I’m not selling this shit. No ten year fixes. 50 year fixes.
At least it happened before I finished it and moved in.
That’s what I thought it was until right now
That’s a caveat I inform people of beforehand. I am really into movies, but I have very discriminate taste, so I don’t watch very often because movies are generally dogshit. All my friends know, I will watch anything with them, but I’m going to talk mad shit the entire time. This is a really fun group activity in most cases, and often helps less informed people see through the bullshit that is modern media, but sometimes there’s someone who doesn’t get it, or needs to hyperfocus on the screen.
That signifies to me:
This person doesn’t understand the point of hanging out in a group
This person falls for blatant marketing
We will probably not be good friends
I may be missing something here
You’re supposed to vaguely imply the existence of those, not just give away secrets in public bruh
It replaces paying for Spotify because its possible to download Spotify premium. Best of both worlds. Use Spotify or YouTube to find stuff, send it to a seedbox, load it later at home.
Biggest downside is most phones don’t have SD card slots anymore.

Could be a picture of all of them sitting in cardboard boxes
I mean, I like the picture, bit you could have a cat a squirrel a coyote and a horse all doing this and say all animals are the same. It’s kind of just how quadrupeds stretch.
Not wanting unnecessary “features“ that are just thinly veiled spyware that overcomplicate every aspect of driving is not a boomer opinion. Wanting buttons you can feel without looking for instead of a giant screen that has automatic updates and needs to have access to your cellphone for basic functionality is not a boomer opinion.
Knowing that tacking voice activation onto every ‘smart’ device, including vehicles, is just an excuse for companies to record everything you say for their shitty marketing isn’t a boomer opinion.
In my experience doing tech work, boomers love that shit and fall for all of it, and it all fucks up in some way much more quickly than should be allowed.
If we want to get conservatives on board with environmental protections, we should just start a conspiracy that the perceived rise in trans people, gays, and autistics is due to plastic ester groups in the environment. Then tell them that these groups are represented in the media so much now because the petrolium companies don’t want us to see it as a problem when the science breaks.
Brb, gotta go convince some trumpers single use plastic is making their kids gay.
Semi pro chiming in here: the infographic took an idea and ran the wrong way with it. Women are more sensitive to color, but it has to do with the context. They pick up more subtle colors without direct comparison. Its not that men can’t see the difference between lavender and piriwinkle when they’re next to each other, they’re just more likely to think their the same color if viewed sepparately.
It’s also worth noting that around age 35, both sexes lenses have yellowed enough that there’s no notable difference.
Pretty solid list, but I would add a bedroom category. Also I feel like I wash blankets more often than every two.months, but I have a sweaty girlfriend.
Nail clippers it is.
Most of the grass i have is different from my neighbors, so I would assume it’s some kind of native saw grass. The blades are significantly wider and more coarse.
I don’t know what bind weed is, but I like dandelions okay. You kind of have to, you’re never going to win against them.
Just tell yourself bees like them.
Where im at, if I didn’t mow until June my lawn would be three feet tall and i’d have several tickets. Still, I don’t mow until may, and then just the front for another few weeks.
You want biodiversity? Don’t weed, don’t spread any pesticides or growth chemicals, and don’t let the natural grass go so long it chokes out the other plants. And the real key, is don’t do any of those things for years. From the street, my yard looks like a yard. It’s a different color than the neighbors, but it’s still green. Up close, it’s a salad. More violets, Moss, clover, flowers, wild lettuce, and a hundred things I can’t identify than grass. Its full of bees, caterpillars, beetles, butterflies, and stick bugs.
I got my neighbor on board, and we’re single handedly keeping fireflies alive in the city. I started seeing bugs I haven’t seen since I was a kid.
As an added bonus, since it’s a smaller proportion grass, I don’t have to mow half as often to keep it looking ‘nice’.
I’m not an ecologist, but I feel like it’s a solid step in the right direction.
Glad to hear it. I may have made an ass of myself on here a few times, but a few patient hexbears showed me what I needed to get it. If you defederated, I’d have to make an account and convince the mods I know better now.
Well yeah fuck that guy and this program and it’s implications, but this particular issue doesn’t sound too unexpected considering the scope of the procedure.
I’m all for the science, but you know this is going to be some directly streamed ads hellspace we’ll never escape from if it comes to fruition.
Here’s a good rule for this sort of thing to move forward: No implants before right to privacy and freedom from advertising.
They’re large flippered dog like creatures that take over docks and harbors.
