A really good distilling setup, or an embroidery machine, or a hen house upgrade, or a sublimation printer and T-shirt press, or a fancy wine fridge (stocked)... I have a lot of favorite hobbies.

Yeah. And I spent a while posting prolifically to them, but without comments, and without new posts, it's kinda pointless. I want to see OTHER people's content.

I'm glad you've got your routine and cat! Cats are amazing partners in sad. Make sure you allow yourself just to exist in the complexity of your grief for a while though, there's no timeline you have to stick to to 'get over it'.

I'm sorry, that's awful. How are you doing with it all?

[–] Lennnny@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

11am, I'm a lazy fuck.

US, I just got to offer stage with a company and the PTO was 10 days... I'm originally from the UK, and previously worked with startups from other countries, so this is shocking to me. More infuriating was the response from my friend group when I complained about it. "Yeah that's pretty standard" and I'm like "ok but it's also shit?"

[–] Lennnny@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Absolutely nada. I must've walked 100 miles looking. The Great Morel shows zero reports around my area (Knoxville) so I just assume the morels skipped us this year.

Was it in various Wetherspoons? If so, could have been me.

Bouncers apparently do

There was no queue for the men's. I respect queues, which is why I used the men's - I didn't want to have to join it.

Various Wetherspoons in England, because I hated queuing for the girls loo, so I'd just run into the men's. Apparently they don't like when you do that.

 

Until now this would have been a stupid question - this is my home. But we're in a strange timeline. My background is I was born in the UK, met first husband, married, got green card, that went tits up, divorced, met husband 2, found forever love, married, naturalized in 2021. Have my passport and everything.

It's my dad's birthday, and he lives in the UK. I want to go back and celebrate, but I'm nervous about reentry into the US. I naturalized during the Biden presidency, and I am a Democrat, I feel nervous that I have a target on my back. I have a home and pets here. Am I ridiculous for worrying or should I be cautious about leaving right now?

 

I've got a great life, I am not trying to avoid tomorrow or whatever, but I just really like staying awake when I'm absolutely balls ass tired. It's kinda addicting, like the sleepier you are, the more insanely good the sleep will be. So I find myself struggling, on purpose, to stay awake. I force myself to read books, or watch shows, or go on Lemmy... and I only just realized it's because I love feeling sleepy.

So uhh, anyone else got this?

 

Ahoy foragers! I know it's been a cold quiet winter, but we're standing at the base camp of a very fruitful season of foraging! I saw the other day that a morel had been spotted in Georgia, and I did some crunching of data soon to be published on my soon to be published website, and have it on good authority that next week might be our first promising window for morels!

I've never eaten one, have no idea how they taste, and am on one hell of a mission to find one this season.

 

She's a proper part of the family now! After two failed attempts, she's landed at her forever home. She seems to know it too - she waits at the top of the stairs when it gets to bedtime and screams until we go up and tuck her in with us.

 

I am obsessed with entering competitions, and I've won quite a few by now (I got free tickets to the same music festival seven years in a row due to my dedication). I love hearing stories of what others win and how they use their winnings.

 

For me, ramps and morels! I know we still have a couple of months, but I'm already prepping my knowledge and researching my locations.

It happens if I try to upload an unedited photo from my camera roll. If I crop it, even by a tiny amount, it lets me upload. It's a really frustrating issue because I have to edit every photo before uploading.

She belonged to a neighbor, but the neighbor moved away and left her. He said he'd be back Thanksgiving weekend to try and get her, but now he's ignoring my texts, and he'd already mentioned 'at this point you can just have her' in a previous conversation.

It's getting into below freezing temperatures here, so we built a little cat ramp up to the second story and now she lives in the house with us. I'm hesitant to say she's ours just yet, but it's looking a lot like that's not up to us anymore 🤣

Edit: Neighbor replied this morning... it's official! 😭😻
