OH GOD BEAR




I don't want to photo it all, but I bought a fuckton of fishing tackle. Got a tackle bag since we're either on a boat or walkin around, some new planos, offset worm hooks, rubber worms, smaller weights (bullet, egg, cannonball, slim), an assortment of jerkbaits, and a few different types of trout bait.

My partner and I had talked about fishing for a while, last time we went was 2019 for obvious reasons but that was ocean fishing and what we were doin didn't need much tackle. Well now we decided to do some lake fishin cause one of roommates gets too sea sick to do ocean fishin and we wanted to include everyone, so I needed to gear up. Went last weekend, caught nothing but it was a super nice day so A+ anyway. Gonna do some surf fishin this weekend, see if we can land some legal halibut.

These are so great! I have the full set and some add-ons like an extra Columbia tile piece. Great conversation pieces; back when the kids had people over, they’d often end up poring over the books and googling stuff to learn more.

My Fire Stick was rebooting a lot and there was so much menu lag. Amazon released a new FS last week so I grabbed it.

Honestly the remote alone was worth most of the 40 bux. It can control the rest of the TV, which hitherto was the original tv remote with buttons that were getting janky. Also has app shortcuts and menus are smoother and I can switch much quicker between services. It took me 45 minute solid minutes to pick something to watch.


One remote to rule them all was the dream. I loving hate having to hunt remotes down.

Was that the original fire stick you replaced? I've got an original where the remote doesn't do any tv stuff, then some version 2's that control power and volume, then some 4k's that do the same. The 4ks recently received the new menu upgrade which they said would be gradually rolled out to the older versions throughout this year, but the original version 1s are getting pretty laggy. Just wondering if that's what you had.

I bought a door.

This door!

Not that specific door, but one just like it!

It doesn't go anywhere at the moment, but it's replacing my front door that I assume was originally installed when the place was built back in the 50s.

That was never in question. Whether you'd want to celebrate that with your front door is another issue.

Thankfully the answer to that is that of course you would.

I think it's from like 2016 or 2017? Its remote only controlled the Fire Stick.

Perhaps the fact that you are making a sword is what causes you to give off “paranoid loner” vibes. correlation doesn’t equal causation tho

A couple of Patagonia Nano Puff jackets.
In these two colors:


I like them both, but I'll probably send one back because I live in Texas right now and have too many jackets and coats already. Just not sure which to keep. I wanted the Kelp Forest one, but I've got so much green already probably.

Oh and a big bunch of Japanese records arrived today. Noice. City pop stuff and some Inoue Yosui.

I have 3 pairs of Arc'teryx Perimeter pants (2 in the same color), and 2 other Arc'teryx pants so I can cycle through them between wash cycles. If you want to keep both Patagonia jackets, you should do so.

Affectedly dropping five terminal "g"s in four sentences is the text equivalent of wearing a loud Hawaiian shirt I think. You're a chilled out beach bro who doesn't care what anyone thinks of you, so much so that you meticulously ensure you never end a word with g so that everyone knows that you're simply too chill to even finish spelling your words. Sorry to pick on you. Stuff like this and Scottish twitter is a major pet peeve of mine. Affecting an accent in written English just gets me riled up.

I bought a big stainless steel saute pan so that I can take it from the stovetop to a hot oven. That's one thing I don't trust my nonstick for. Also for super high stove temps. It's supposedly the best way to cook steaks, I'm excited to try it out.
