Went to the zoo while high.
Sibling wanted to go to the zoo, so we rented an electric cart for my husband and the three of us went out. I decided as weed is legal here to do that as well
Turns out physical activity sucks less when high and there’s animals to look at also
I find that animals seem more like oddly shaped people when I’m high.
Cocaine.
Honestly, I don’t see what all the fuss is about. To me it feels like coffee, but it only lasts 15 minutes, tastes like shit, and costs upwards of a testicle and a half where I am. And no, I’m not looking for anyone to try and change my mind on that.
because its too difficult to do coffee off sexy body parts.
You’re only saying that because you haven’t seen me brew coffee with my buttcheeks.
Do you percolate
You will when you see it!
I’m percolating right now
pix or it didn’t happen
[also its’ 2024 so you have access to AI. Get [pardon the pun] cracking]
May I ask out of curiosity what led to the decision that this was a good idea?
Basically, it was in front of me, and I’ve got an unfortunate amount of experience kicking stimulant habits (I was an Adderall kid), so I figured I wasn’t at any particular risk of getting addicted. I tried it a few more times after that and came to the same conclusion, so at this point I don’t think I’ve touched the stuff in over a year.
Also I was drunk every time someone offered it to me.
Why not? Sometimes people like to try new things.
Username checks out
I’ve never tried cocaine in any form, just have never had any interest in it.
Some drugs are fun
I’m inclined to ask, are you sure you got true concentrated cocaine? I don’t encourage cocaine, but it sounds like you got scammed with something the seller could more easily get their hands on.
Yeah I was gonna say… either dude drinks cocaine coffee daily or it was some shitty cocaine
It was probably shitty coke, but there was at least one time where my buddy said “yo this is some good stuff” and it still didn’t do it for me. Who knows if it actually was good stuff, though.
Made hassleback potatoes.
sounds like a lot of work
worth it though
Tiling a floor
How did it go?
It was only a small hallway (3,5m2) but it went better than I’d hoped. I’m really proud, even though I’ll always see the imperfections too.
So great success
You should be proud of yourself! We tiled our kitchen backsplash. Everyone says it looks great, but i only see the one tile that’s upside down.
Yeah that’s the thing. I think in the end the pride prevails, as others fall to spot it.
Anyway good job, it’s great picking up skills!
I used pentagons. It went terribly
Oh good God. On your first try? RIP
Did a jewelry workshop and crafted myself a silver ring that looked dope af. That was enjoyable.
Bought an ebike. I’ve wanted one for over 10 years, and finally the circumstances were right for me to justify it.
Preserved and framed a 1500-piece puzzle I completed
Bought a book on programming. Have been doing hobby coding for a few decades. Going to dive into a larger project so trying to learn some better practices
What book was it ?
Design Patterns by Eric Freeman and Elisabeth Robson
I really got a lot from Clean Code and Working Effectively With Legacy Systems
Read clean code during an internship and it helped me transition from hacker to engineer.
Moved out of my parents house to live by myself.
Made a wattle and daub wall. It’s surprisingly hard to get right.
What was hard about it? Also what was the wall for?
Well apparently a few things that nobody actually bothered to write down is what kind of mud of need, how hard you need to force it into the wood, how much fiber you need to add.
I mean, it’s kinda like those old cookbooks that just say “keep in medium oven until done”. Everyone just sort of assumes you have the Knack.
Its partly because I do reenactment, and partly because I want a shed that I made myself. This is mostly a test to see how long it will survive in the rainy Netherlands.
I finally hacked my 3ds, using the tools at https://3ds.hacks.guide. It was surprisingly easy, and gives you access to
- homebrew!
- emulators!
- online play for most games! (see: Pretendo Network)
- custom home screen themes!
I waited until Nintendo shut down their servers 'cause I was worried about bans, but now there’s no excuse. Go liberate your 3ds, it takes less than an hour.
Called a tax professional.
How did it go? I need to do that but I’ve been putting it off for a year.
Not the person you asked, but in my experience: in the worst case you end up paying more for something that was rather simple, but in the best case they find some nice savings.
That being said, if you have the money and just don’t like doing taxes, it’s pretty fantastic to just send someone your papers and wait.
Thanks. Don’t know why in so nervous about it. I’ve always done it myself but i lost my mom last year and i have no idea how to handle her house stuff. I got a recommendation and now I’m just trying to work up the courage to call.
It is pretty nice. I’d much rather work a day of overtime at my job, and let them handle the paperwork.
Took Dilaudid.

Had this really weird extreme pain in my side, felt like I had ruptured something. Ended up in the ER Tuesday. :(
Doc says that it’s kind of like appendicitis, but because it’s on the left side instead of the right they call it “Epiploic Appendagitis”.
Nobody seems to know why it happens, just that it hurts like fuck and isn’t dangerous.
Treatment is massive painkillers.
Sorry to hear that, hope it gets better soon!
I functioned for most of today without painkillers, so that was good, but man, I am DONE for the day.
Answered this question
Hey my son’s name is Bort too!
I hit a major setback, thought it was going to ruin me, but instead of just accepting the failure and sliding back years in my efforts, I called some friends for support. They both independently told me that I was catastrophizing and not to give up but try assuming I would just sail past the problem and keep going. So I did, and sure enough I recovered really fast and I’m back on track again.
