Dimensional weight if it’s strangely sized. Essentially at certain tiers of package size, it’ll rate as what they expect something that size will weigh regardless of actual weight. Not sure if this has been updated recently.

Had the HandyPak. Felt like such a goddamn high-tech boss with this thing.

Finally got around to submitting claims for Sansa for this year: $4100. Hoping my stupid insurance doesn't fuck me on this... Thankfully she didn't throw up during any of this ordeal, since fucking vomiting is a pre-existing condition apparently...

Picture might not be the actual dog; article says pictured is "one of the dogs owned by the family" which is of course very useful.

That thing hit I think 73dbz, which is kind of nuts. But yeah, since it was seemingly just trees, didn't really see anything about it. This is about the best I could find: https://bloomingtonian.com/2026/06/18/significant-tornado-damages-northern-monroe-county-closes-i-69/

Yeah, it’s remote. I’d try and rent the house, pretty sure I’d have to write a check right now if I sold it. Parents are taking me around house hunting this weekend while I’m there just to try to give me something to be excited about. And yeah, they’d just have me stay with them while I found...

I managed a 15min walk around the block the past three days. I don’t know if it helped. Was at least able to cook and make dinner today and ate it all. Therapist and my parents both brought up potentially moving again. I still don’t like the idea but I’m not sure what I want really matters...

About fucking time.

The meds seem to have done nothing so far except give me some low level nausea. Now with the break up, I can’t get out of bed, I can’t even get myself to log into EQ. Monday I had to force myself to eat a single piece of bread and it took everything not to just throw it up. Yesterday was half a...

He's working it because he has to. Family business and all. He's basically stuck with it and can't really get out of it at this point.

I feel like such an asshole. I was basically the only good part of his days. Now I feel like I’m just ripping his happiness away, even if he says he’ll be fine and that he’s just happy that I’m in his life at all. I wanted it to work so badly, but it just isn’t. It hurts so fucking much every...

We ended up breaking it off today. Though, I guess it was me that decided it, even though he knows that was eventually going to be the outcome anyway. We didn't even really get to try. We hadn't seen each other for three months. His work schedule just made it that much harder. Even during...

Nowhere near there, unfortunately. I do still have some strays I've been feeding on the porch, though they're very skittish and probably not going to be caught. The one tortie people in the neighborhood have been trying to catch for a couple years with no luck. She appears to have just had a...

I failed at not being back on meds again. I really didn't want to, but it's hard for me to keep arguing against it when over and over I can't seem to just get better through my own efforts. I at least argued for the citalopram and not the prozac that was recommended, since I've at least been...

Ended up getting back to citalopram. Feel like a fucking failure. I'm fucking tired.

My butt here using a 24” from 2012 and a 23” that randomly came in the mail from Amazon in 2018. Sometimes wonder if I’m missing out, but I guess I’ve never felt I had a problem with my picture quality and would rather ride these things out until they die.

Have kind of self-destructed over the past couple of weeks. Have already just been feeling down and in a rut and still struggling to find a point to anything. Then losing my cat Sansa just sent things straight to hell. Hadn't showered in a couple of weeks, wasted 6 home delivery meals I'd had...

My Minas Tirith has arrived at my mom’s house. Will be a long wait until Christmas. My brother is going to be getting the Sagrada Familia as his Christmas set. Looks awesome. https://www.lego.com/en-us/aboutus/news/2026/june/lego-architecture-sagrada-fam-lia-set-unveiled?locale=en-us

It's sucked. While I've had pets before over the years, this is the first one that I've actually had to live daily with the loss. Furlough passed at a time when my whole family happened to be back together (I was in college, brother was living in his own place now, parents were both overseas...

Yeah, but min-maxing doesn't taste as good as a tub of rainbow chip frosting.

The super soaker arms race got quickly out of control in my family between my brother and I. Upgrading to this was fucking awesome. I could have sworn there was one that came out at some point that was like a sniper super soaker with a little bipod stand or something on it.

Does it count if my mom bought it for me for Christmas this year? I do technically have to wait for it.

You playing on Frostreaver?

I didn't even use mine that hard. 1.5-3 hours, 3-4 times a week at like 1.2-1.6 speed. Well below what these things were rated for. 99% just seem to be cheap trash, unfortunately.

Yeah, I had the standing desk/treadmill combo. Sadly, it seems the market for the under desk treadmills is pure fucking Chinese garbage, so it's hit or miss if you get one that's not going to shit the bed. The first one I bought lasted about 10 months before the motor started dying. The...

It's going to be really hard coming home and opening the door and not having Sansa be there brushing up against everything. I'd only been at my job for a little bit, but my coworkers already all knew her and loved her when she would show up on camera during the dev weekly on Thursday tapping me...

The steroids gave her some relief, and at least bought some time. But the last test came in tonight for the toxoplasmosis. It was negative as well, so we still don’t know what’s wrong with her. So it’s time. We’re going to say goodbye to her tomorrow.

Not going to make a decision today. Vet asked if I just wanted to try a steroid combo. I know this route usually just kind of buys a couple better days before it just goes to shit again. But maybe it can buy enough time for the rest of the blood work to come back. Maybe one of those results...

Called the vet and explained the situation from this morning. Some of the tests had come back, but nothing showed anything that could give an answer. The options at this point were try to take her over an hour away to a specialist ER and see if they can figure out what's going on or let her...

She's in so much pain. I don't know what to do. I took her to the vet again yesterday. She can't walk at all. She tries to get up sometimes and immediately collapses. She peed herself on the way to the vet yesterday and hasn't used the bathroom since. I fed her with a syringe this morning...

This morning has been bad. She can hardly walk at all, anymore. She takes a couple of steps and then just collapses and lays there shaking. I noticed her back right leg is hurting her, too. I tried to see if I could move her appointment today up, but they have no slots. Just trying to keep...

Well, good news is her X-rays are normal. Bad is that I’d have to find some place to do a CT/MRI to determine if she has soft tissue damage. She also could have arthritis (she just turned 10 this month). At least getting some more pain meds for her tonight. Going to keep the appointment tomorrow...

Sansa is having a rough couple of months. Had a bad cold that I took her to the vet for in March. In April, she broke a tooth and had to get a dental to get it removed. A couple weeks ago, noticed the pupils in her eyes were completely mismatched and weren’t reacting to light, so took her to the...

There’s a black foot cushion under my desk. My black cat loves to sleep on this damn thing and blends right into it. The amount of times I accidentally bonk her with my feet makes me sad, but she keeps on coming back.

So glad you found her. I would have lost my kind. Fingers crossed she’s okay!

Funny the other day I was wishing my family had kept our set of these. Really sad about it now.

House was a new construction, but seeing how they had apparently barely even connected the vent hose to the dryer, who knows what other shortcuts they took. I'll try to gently snake it anyway just to make sure, but also seems like I was just dumb here.

Ordered the kit, but in the meantime pulled the dryer out, ran it while disconnected from the vent and it's blowing out the back just fine. Vacuumed inside the lint trap as deep as I could and in through the vent in the back as much as possible. Took my leaf blower and very gently pulsed it in...

The outer vent is in the attic above my basement exit, so I have no way to access it myself (I'd need a big ass ladder and I sure as shit don't want to do that myself). I imagine it's some form of plastic. Would have to go at it from the inside.
