@Link-Hero oof someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed

@Zuljaras ah the best method to experience the world! Biting. It's quite cute when the animal is small and can't hurt you.

I'm sure he'll get used to you two in no time. Do try to learn his behavior so you can know when to stop handling though.

@Link-Hero Nah I get you. We all have our pet peeves. Mine notably being text walls

@Zuljaras What do you feed the hedgehoge?

@BruceCM Haha, like I said, definitely not the worst. The prizewinner there was a bout of who-knows-what when I was in college.

@Apportal You just need to conscript a modified Roomba with extendable arms, delivered by drone, and control it remotely via a camera. Problem solved.

On a serious note, sweaty masks aren't fun. Not usually a situation I deal with in my case, but that would get old and VERY unpleasant lol. Hang in there! We're required to wear them at work, though we're allowed to remove them in our own desk space (as we're spaced far enough apart) as long as someone isn't visiting. I'm a software developer, so it's relatively easy for me to work from home on occasion.

@Tyranexx If it gets too hard I just think of the doctors/nurses who have to wear them 8 hours a day. I don't mind them on their own honestly. I usually eat a peppermint so I can have a nice cinnamon smell to work through.

One day of heat wave left! 😅

@Apportal I don't really mind them either, though it's rare that I'm in them continuously for more than an hour or two. I'm appreciating my own CO² + masks as a face warmer in these cooler temps. XD I agree; mad props to medical personnel and all others who have to wear masks for eight or more hours a day.

Good call on the peppermint lol. I need to do something about my morning coffee breath after that drowns out my minty toothpaste.

@Tyranexx I'm happy to hear that you are feeling better! Worst part for me is that I can't even play or watch movies/ series much while I'm feeling sick unlike most people, specially with that kind of sickness. I simply need to feel comfortable in order to relax and even common colds tend to annoy me enough to affect that.

On another topic directed for everyone, I know I'm late since I got my Switch this year but I'm loving BOTW. It's hyping me up for Age of Calamity, despite of not being that being of a fan of Musou games

I had an Unicornetto some days ago. It's like a regular cornetto ice cream but really colorful and strawberry flavored.

@roy130390 Thanks! How down I get really depends on the illness. With this, other than Monday evening (when I had the slight fever) I could still function somewhat normally. I even gamed a little on my Switch Monday, but not for very long. Took it easy on exercising for a few days just to be on the safe side. I've definitely had illnesses where all I wanted to do was curl up under some blankets and sleep, but that thankfully doesn't occur often.

I only picked up my Switch this past holiday season, so I'm still playing catch-up lol. Hoping to get around to BotW soon and am playing through the excellent Super Mario Odyssey now. Those who are whining about the Switch "drought" aren't considering those of us who didn't grab a Switch at launch. XD Plus, it's not like the eShop lacks games.

@Vinny delicious delicious food coloring

@Vinny I have a local ice cream store called “Weldons”. Their strawberry ice cream is the best

Don't forget about the saturated fats. Yum!

@Apportal Mmm, that sounds good. One of my favorite local ice cream shops closed due to the lockdown, unfortunately.

I can't stop watching this. XD haha Unfortunately, I only found it on fb. Tio Choko thrust, belt buckle dance. I think it's worth the jump. Watch with sound.

My iPod arrived much earlier than expected, which is absolutely wonderful.

It basically spent its entire first day downloading music... 21gb to be exact. So it’s basically already completely full (I bought the 32gb model, and the OS takes a sizable chunk of that). Which is fine, I intend to use it mostly for music.

I did install Plants vs Zombies and Stardew Valley to have something to play on it, of course. But I probably won’t do that a lot, since the battery seems to drain relatively quickly.

I had it engraved. Because that’s something I always wanted to try~

@Eel If there wasn't any blood on the iPod, I'd send that s**t right back

thankfully this delivery was only post-worthy in a positive way, because the delivery estimate was from the 7th to the 15th.

Edit: here take a look at my motivational piece of obsolete technology!

(by the way the video you posted just shows a warning)

@Eel Ah! That's pretty aweseome! Your iPod, that is. I like that you censored dangerous to go alone XD

Yeah, regarding the video, it didn't embed because of restrictions, but there is a link on it to "watch on facebook". If it violates anything, otherwise, let me know, and I can remove it.

I really like the color options they have for these. It's a bit of a weird blue though, my camera doesn't seem to like focusing on it.

The video itself is ok don't worry.
