I’m so glad he’s doing well and safe! And his bartender.

This needs more attention.

For possible dietary requirements, look into wet food with pumpkin, squash, or sweet potatoes. It helps their digestive track and microbacterial gut health.

It’s doing wonders for my Kitty’s chronic diarrhea.

Oh wow. That takes me back. There used to be a Windows 3.1 program that would attempt to make MIDIs from MP3s. It worked best with soft and quiet songs, not overly loud ones.

If you want a particular song transcribed, it might be best to find someone to help.

Purr-sonalized!

Lol. We rarely did get breaks. But we had a slow lull between 2 and 4. Best damn K.P. burgers I’ve ever had. :)

I remember working at a restaurant once that was open on Christmas. We were expected to be working for at least 12 hours, but we had two 30 minute breaks and a 1 hour lunch.

One dude brought in a 6 pack of Red bulls, but he was clearly high AF as well. Not sure on what (we suspected speed or something as he was flying), but he chugged those RBs throughout the shift.

By noon he was in an ambulance on the way to the ER.

I can hear the frantic flapping of that paw through the air. The sound of one paw grasping.

If you can find Japanese Makita brand products (I.E., from Japan), they have actual quality.

Living the dream!

Archie’s a polydactyly!!! Now he can really jam on that guitar!!! Imagine a guitarist having more than 4 fingers and a thumb…

…

Off to YouTube!!!

Noooooo!

Friend rescue chonk!!

Oof! Dark Yojimbo… Yeah. :O I remember him being a beast. I think I remember using Anima or the three Sisters to help.

Good luck!

High, watching a Mr. Plinkett review of the Titanic, and scrolling through here.

Enjoy FFX again! Love it a lot. :)

Hard poached eggs topped with cheddar cheese.

I also use ketchup as an additive in cabbage rolls, sloppy joes, or chili, barbecue sauce.

Meat loaf, Japanese omelet rice.

For me, it’s a lack of meaningful contact with my family on the other side of the country.

Facebook and other social media sources are turning into just giant vanity “me me me!” and shit posting. Nothing more meaningful came out of it… So I abandoned it.

It’s hard to keep track of so many different media outlets as well, and got tiring. Especially with a lot of doom scrolling posts… Such a downer.

Hate to do what you said you didn’t want to hear, but it’s the truth.

There are lots of girls or women who love gaming. Not just girly casual games, either. We just don’t make it publicly known. You may have known a few more girl gamers, but they wouldn’t ever dare tell you or be open about it.

A girl gamer, even back then, is someone who is ridiculed, made fun of, picked on and bullied to no end. You learn to stop making your hobbies public, especially if you don’t want to be destroyed psychologically. That means lying about your hobbies.

It is more openly accepted for guys to play games, but not for girls. We’re supposed to be playing with dolls, playing house, and learning how to raise children, not goofing off. Not to mention, personal tastes and interests and how they were brought up.

It’s like asking how many boys play with dolls, or make believe with girly interests.

Your fact may stand from your perspective, and you may have known a lot of non gamers as that’s how they grew up, but keep in mind that the potential for being bullied or accused of using your gender to garner attention really forces us to remain behind closed doors for protection.

Just because you don’t see it, doesn’t mean it isn’t happening.

It’s just unfortunate that you seem to only be noticing the superficial layer to this.

Admittedly, it is getting better, but it’s still not a world where one can be so public about “masculine-centric” hobbies, not just gaming.

Expand your circle of friends and you may find more. :)

Asking here is a good way to see how many other females there really are. We’re more comfortable talking here, behind some layer of anonymity.

Might not be dumb, but I learned programming to create things and learn how things worked. Started with entering in hundreds of lines of BASIC printed in magazines, including debugging font typos.

Then learned MUF, or Multi-User Forth, a stack-based text language for creating text based dungeons, and managed to stop some malicious users spying and people’s privacy in the server.

Every so often, I pick up a new language to test it to see if it does cool stuff or help me further learn more about how things function.

Data would look hilarious. I bet her would pick up on this obscure human tradition and attempt it.
