Call your landlord to deal with it?

It went way under the bushes and, well, I’ll omit the upsetting details but it really could not move well.
But, someone must’ve called a private animal control company, who was able to trap him and take him away to be put out of his misery. It was SUPER upsetting to watch, but I kept watching since I had a better view of him from my balcony and it was dark out and I was worried that the guy would lose him and we’d have a very sick raccoon in our backyard the whole night.

The poor thing.

It turns out that in a week of election chaos and covid getting really bad in my state, “suffering animal” was the thing that broke me and sent me into crying fits. :frowning:

Watching a being suffer is already incredibly saddening, let alone when your reserves are so low. :heart: I’m glad someone was able to trap it and not leave it to suffer.

My apple is too cold to eat.

Mine is too!! I had to set it down because the cold was making my fingers ache and burn a bit.

So rude of our fruit. How are we supposed to eat it if it’s not automatically at the perfect temperature already? Just because I forgot to get it out of the fridge yesterday…

I tried to do some light stretches, and I still can’t do a basic quad stretch - not because my quad is too tight, but because the bits behind my knee complain at being folded in

It’s like the bits are a seat belt that doesn’t retract properly

Whom do I have to petition to get the term “house hacking” canceled?

It is not clever or novel to reduce expenses/increase income by taking in boarders, being a boarder/renter, or sharing house/being in a co-living situation. This is a centuries old model that was particularly dominant for urban areas.

Shared housing, renting, or being a landlord is literally the opposite of a ‘hack.’

Oh gosh yes. IMO it’s yet another example of something that is normal in certain demographics given a twee label to appease the bougie sensibility.

Hmph. Fucking pandemic. There’s a huge celebration going on in the street, on one of the main streets that runs through my neighborhood. I can hear it. But I’m getting reports that while everyone’s masked, it is PACKED and that’s not a thing I am doing now even masked.

Applied for a new credit card 3 weeks ago and still haven’t received the cards, already requested cards be resent once six days ago

Apparently there is a big block party type thing happening near out downtown, but covid and being high risk means I can’t join.
Boooooo

Listening to the celebration from my back porch. According to my neighbor, it was as crowded as Pride. So, that’s a hard no. I feel you.

The place we got takeout from tonight was all out of Chinga Tu Pelo beer.

They called and asked if we wanted to replace it with something else and I responded, “No… it was supposed to be symbolic.”

That is too bad. Pancreatic cancer is very tough to beat.

I suspect that they may have Ken Jennings now host Jeopardy.

Returning a $5 item to Target has cost me $25 because Husband felt the need to check out the video game section.

I really can’t wait until I can run my own errands again.

That would be sending my wife to the grocery store.
