Sugar free tonic, I assume? ;)

Swap them out for cheapie eBay numbers when the time comes.

QuietComfort headphones, these puppies are closing in on 8 years old.

Please to report my QCs did not die. Worked out it was probably the cable, after being able to get some sound through with jiggling it. $7 replacement cable arrived today and we’re back to regularly scheduled programming. 😎

For the fungus gnat fighters, I got these sticky sheets in the post today and cut them up into traps approximately the same dimension as these Bunnings ones.

Works out to like 8¢/trap (or less) instead of $1.29/trap. Being able to make dozens means you can get way more coverage. Also customised the size to be wider for my larger plants, and want to experiment with different shapes just for fun.

They seem to be working, too, in just a few hours many have already caught gnats.

Now we’re talking.

I fortunately clocked and blocked him immediately. The folks he’s managed to bait into his subsequent smear campaign (including this defender) are now learning a lesson of their own, lol.

The good news is the more he escalates the less I care – he comes across as absolutely nutso which makes him way easier to clock.

This guy could be textbook reading materials for the course.

On the subject of things that should really be taught in school, one of my top requests would be Identification and Management of Narcissists.

I’ve recently had someone go into defend me against a narcissist abuser in my life, and all the defender has managed to do is become a target himself and escalate the narcissist’s rage towards me.

Oh dear, my QuietComfort headphones have died overnight. I was just thinking yesterday they’re on the way to 8 years old… great innings.

Doing a little DIY project (currently at the what-have-I-done panic stage) and noticed the little pack of sandpaper I have from a “variety” shop is priced at $1.50. Must have bought it in the 80s for it to have been that price.

I believe it’s this story.

Treating a BIBLICAL fungus gnat plague right now. This warmth and humidity has clearly horned them up.

Chookas!

We talking mindfully paced handfuls, or just tipping it straight in to your gaping maw?

Working as a freelancer for a while made me realise just how often people consider accumulating accounts owed as legitimate cash flow management strategy. If they want extended payment terms we can talk about it, but waiting until the owed party gets angry enough to finally cough up is a cunt move.

I’m a very regular edible consumer. For me, it’s 45 minutes after dosing to start feeling the effects, 90 minutes to actually feel stoned, and a few hours before it starts wearing off. Quite a different experience to inhaled THC. My regular dose is between 5mg to 10mg, definitely feel toasted but it’s comfortable and pleasant.

If I got your script I would start at a third of a gummy and see how I felt, before increasing if needed over different sessions on following days.

If you end up accepting less, perhaps you could ask for a clear path towards the figure you asked for. Wouldn’t want to give them false belief that the issue is over and dealt with. ;)

Those that walk their dog in this heat should be launched into the sun, and the dog should be the one to press the button.

On the contrary, this belongs on the highlight reel. In super slow motion.
