I always hope I can someday get my data off the phones I brick. I have a carton of bricks that used to be phones. Hoarding is either my superpower or my Achilles' heel.

"Capacitors are rated for 10,000 hours and the PC ran probably 3+ years straight." Oh shi... My 'new' box I built in 2020... No wonder I'm having random crashes,and glitches. Edit: also, my 'old'

'I feel pretty.' 'I feel pretty, and witty, and Gaaaaaaaaaay!' Thanks!

It is very encouraging, after the dreary, wet winters here, when spring brings all the seedlings out of the soil, and the flowers burst into color.

I very much appreciate your perspective on the article. There are very few people I can ask about such things here. I occasionally run into a Russian emigre here or there when I'm out picking mushrooms

I unschooled my kids, up until puberty, because that's when they needed to learn about things I could not teach them. My eldest became captain of the football team, homecoming king, and VP of every school

Trump's only job is to read his lines. His threats and claims are of null account, because he has no agency. Bibi's hand is working all his parts from within. Trump's only contributions are his garish

Think? I know. When I was a kid the local cops in my village murdered a smuggler, and then suddenly were selling coke from their squad cars. Fuck the police. Nothing but a bigger gang IMHO. Thanks!

Love the contrast of colors in the first pic. My cherry tree is in full bloom, the apple is coming on, all my seeds are sprouting... It's a glorious time for naturists and gardeners. Thanks!

This is why I hate Discord, and won't use it anymore. I encourage you to recall 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off' from back in the 80's and the paperboy. He's always been an inspiration to me of persistence in

I try to stack a bunch of attractants in a single pot, and then live in it's shadows. Thanks!

Is it weird that all my heroes are criminals? Thanks!

Another useful you should know: But I will reblog this so I can find it when I need it. Thanks! Edit: @antisocialist can probably add dozens of great links. Also, I just now found Another Hive service
