    Your pointless thoughts & observations

    Not very many people enjoy going to the bathroom. There are certain things that make it unpleasant.

    Toilet paper isn’t always readily available. Sometimes you have to go elsewhere to find a bathroom. Sometimes you have to wait in line to use the toilet.

    Even when you can find a bathroom, there may be other people in the room trying to use the toilet at the same time.

    In order to deal with these situations, you need a device that can help you. This device should have everything you need to successfully relieve yourself.

    If you can find a device that includes these features, it will make your life easier. It will make that time spent in the bathroom a lot more pleasant.

    One of my favorite things to think about is how our bodies have to give us dopamine every time we take a shit because otherwise nobody would want to do it.

    I shook the grill a bit, and it ended up running off. BUT it left a bunch of tiny pink rat babies in there in a big disgusting nest. I used some sticks to put the nest on the ground, and now there are several pink mutant babies squirming around in my backyard. I am not a bad person, but I don't know what else I could have done. the big rat is gone, and so it is up to mother nature now to decide. we get a lot of turkey vultures around here, which will no doubt know what to do.

    but FFS, now my grilling plan is ruined because no way in hell am I using that thing now.

    I would have recommended option f (grill the rats for memorial day hotdogs), but it seems you went with good ole option g (treat the crows to a really good memorial day meal).

    Haha! I don’t want to go into too much detail because the whole story is actually personal and a bit sad but one of our family members that we visited lives alone, is legally blind and has problems making it to the toilet on time. We discovered black trails in and out of the bathroom and across the apartment. Also, when we were there, the baby had a MASSIVE blow out and that got all all over the floors and my wife’s shoes, clothes, etc. Baby was covered head to toe in shit and screaming like crazy and when I was cleaning/changing her, MIL picked that moment to try and mind meld with the baby to calm her down and made it impossible for me to clean her. I had to let her know twice that she was so close to the baby that her collar and ponytail were in danger of getting shit on them. She was also in my way making it impossible for me to clean the baby’s ass. Meanwhile, the baby’s changing pad was precariously slipping around in the kitchen table and when MIL almost pulled her off the edge I said “don’t pull the baby!” Out of caution and she snapped back “you’re pulling the baby!” Which wasn’t physically possible because she had her hands on the baby and my hands were full of shitty baby wipes . It was terrible  


    MIL left Wednesday and I’ve been replaying all of the worst moments in my head on repeat over and over, trying to figure out what the fuck the issue was. I think it really just comes down to control issues. My assumption now is that she feels threatened by me because she isn’t in complete control of her only grandchild. Thus, any polite request I make is interpreted as a threat. Now she wants to come visit every month and my wife is too intimidated to tell her no. I’m fucking done.

    Edit:  I've been spending the past five days with my sister getting viciously criticized for everything I say, do, or don't do, so I'm kinda doing a similar thing in my head now that it's over.

    I got a job offer from my first choice workplace.  Things in my life have been working out so well for me that I'm starting to get paranoid.  There's gotta be something bad at some point, there always is! :psyduck:

    This thread is making me wanna do shrumes again.  My one experience was way overdosed for a first time and it made for an incredibly weird time so I didn't look back for a long while.  I really miss how introspective and abstract it was while also keeping me hyperaware and grounded to my body.  It was a little too much for a teenager to handle.

    I missed my fucking fedex delivery yet again, and yet again they are making it impossible for me to get it from them.  I'm going to be spending the rest of my day paying penance for missing my delivery because they want to abuse their power over my package as much as they can.  They keep telling me the seller won't let me take my package without a signature, even though the seller denies he ever specified this.  I'm about to go out of state for a week and I might not even be able to get this before I leave.  I've had it with buying shit online.  Fun fact, FedEx is actually short for Fedifragous Excrement, and personally I'm Fed up with their Explanations.

    I’ve considered this and I usually try this strategy but it is really really really really difficult to on this trip because she has insulted my dead father twice… once in front of other family members at a dinner table, after which I humbly said “my dad wasn’t all bad and I loved him”. Following that (which happened after the cucumber incident, for the record), things progressively got worse, I assume primarily because I challenged her by standing up for myself when I got my feelings hurt. Given that, it feels like I have been killing her with kindness by being passively agreeable… to no avail, obviously.

    I'm glad I took the high road and just didn't respond, but BOY did I wanna go off on this fucking idiot.

    I left her my number on a dating site months ago. I assumed she wasn't interested. Then she suddenly messages me out of the blue "hey it's xxxx from dating site, how's your day going?"

    So we did the getting to know you thing for a week and a half, sending each other several paragraphs daily.

    When I suggested we meet for a drink, I get hit with that...

    :psyduck:

    Yeah, that's dumb.  She's definitely into you but is too "responsible" to do anything more than texting.  What a loser.

    got this email from my kids teacher (I substituted dashes for my kids name), and immediately cracked up laughing:

    I wanted to inform you of an incident today while the students were on the carpet waiting for dismissal. Another student said that --- said "suck big butt", then this student repeated it to another student. I talked to --- and he said that he only said the word "butt" because his was itching, he said he doesn't know why he said it out loud. --- is such a good kid I just wanted to bring this to your attention. All students involved were reminded of appropriate talk at school. 

    Stop making him listen to so much boc

    Can we change the Big Brain reaction to someone more influential, like Kant or Hegel?  I don't think Schopenhauer is the most appropriate choice considering that his most notable contribution to philosophy is the simplification of Kant's philosophy.

    Deleting Social Media

    I strongly recommend deleting the accounts as well instead of just the apps.  Even if Sugarmount still keeps your data, leaving the account open is a vulnerability, and other strange imps can exploit it and access your information or use your account to work their mischief.

    But for the sake of contributing to the present heap of encouragement, I also deleted all social accounts a few months before the pandemic and haven't noticed any increased loneliness as a result (though this could be because of all the loneliness caused by other circumstances).  But don't get your hopes up, because it also hasnt inspired any reading either.  There are plenty of other distractions out there.
