general non-furry discussion / Re: T G I F What are you doing this weekend?

When all else fails go to youtube. I had no idea there was a thing called a 'trap adapter'. And had no idea there was supposed to be a 1/4 inch slope to all drain pipes. The entire under the sink system is about to be replaced. It's not going to help the in wall drainage problem. That's a 1950's till now issue. Will help the leaking that happens when it does clog.

Looks like I'm getting a plumber for this job. No idea how my father in  law got this to work. I can't. Tighten two threaded ends together without a flange. Perhaps the plumber will have a fix for my 1950's always clogging inside the wall drain pipes as well.

Again with putting up with bad management. This guy stops me. Gives me this over the top, absolutely ridiculous reason why what I'm doing wont work. Tells me a self adjusting part will stay up and allow the next piece to turn sideways. That is not how it works. This part is self adjusting. It closes itself then adjusts to the next piece.  But everything he says is right.  So I had to stop what I've been doing for the past eight years. Ever sense this machine was installed. According to the operator's manual.  How the machine was made to work. And do it his way. This is the same guy who told me plastic sewer pipes expand when they get wet. You have no idea how disappointing it is to work with someone like this.  To let you know just what this guy is like. He told a new employee he was  wrong for calling in. He has to come in and be told whether or not he's sick enough not to be there.  He got a three day suspension for that stunt.

Fixing the pipes under my bathroom sink. Clogged and sprang a leak. Making a 'proofing box'. Because I keep my house on the cool side threw winter I need a warm spot to proof bread dough. Nothing fancy. Be a cardboard box with space enough for a lamp and a bowl for the bread dough.

Pasta with Spinach and instead of the usual white meat chicken we normally use, we used chicken hearts. Would not reccomend not very good dark meat and just not that good in general.

The best thing about being a bird is that you can fly up to all the places you're not allowed to go.

Been thinking about this place lately, and I just wanted to pop by and say hi! As always in my life, a lot has changed since my last message. I'm still working in humanitarian aid, but I've moved up to our HQ in Switzerland. I'm steadily getting better at French and building a new life in Europe. My three cats are here with me, and although getting them to Switzerland from Uganda was one of the biggest travel nightmares I've ever gone through, I'm so glad to be reunited with them again.

Am still birb. (Chirp.) Am still very into the furry VR community. I've been to two cons in VR recently, Furality Aqua and Furality Luma Festival, and both were absolutely beautiful and amazing experiences. Somehow, after all these years, I've still never been to a real-life furry con and have barely met any furries IRL. But I'm going to fix that in May, as I'm flying across the Atlantic to come spend a week with some close furry friends I've met through Twitch and VR. I'm more excited than I've been for anything in a long time.

I hope you floofs are all doing well.

anime / Re: Beastars on Netflix

That whole episode with Jack was deep. He wanted to die because he couldn't cry for his best friend. If you take this manga apart and view it's content in pieces each piece was a work of art. Unfortunately each piece is a portion of a separate work of art. Jumbled together. What we all ended up with is more like viewing the bottom of a trash can.  Another story line that had no impact. How both predator and prey first agreed to live together. How did that change to the social system they have now? The could have left all this out and spent more time on the actual story line.  The manga was chuck full of filler material.

I figured more would come of Jack the Labrador since he was so smart too.  I figured he would use his brain to solve some big issue in the end.
NOPE

I liked his character and was distraught at the concept of him killing him self using those onions.
