I'm honestly amazed how some people write legibly pretty stuff. wtf. how can it be so easy to write things that people read and it looks nice?!

My penmanship, of all sorts, used to be lovely and then I was attacked by arthritis' in a darkened alley one night and now I can barely write legibly, even to my own eyes lol
I started using all cap when I started science classes, since it was easier to read notes/pre-lab write-ups at a glance. I used cursive for all my GA classes because it made note-taking during lectures much faster.

I just came here to ask if we could all agree to maybe start school after coffee break? Maybe 10-10:30?
Hit snooze a couple times, and forgot it was a school day at some point while staring at the floor. We had to scramble and barely made the bell by driving (we usually walk)
Celebrating the minor victory of remembering to make and pack a lunch, as well as on time drop off. Now I'm sitting parked around the corner, posting about it to https://beaunoise.bandcamp.com/album/buchlaworks-module-ii


Gonna go home and smoke a coffee about it.

Finally (FINALLY) baby fatties are occupying the beach! With their moms, natch.

I believe I have not yet mentioned today how much I love Harbor Seals. They are the best seals! One day I will be able to cuddle one, yes. Without my face being chewed off, yes.
Ringed seals are probably the perfect orbs for BYOB, though.

There are such jobs but they generally don't pay much and sometimes want you to have at least a Master's in the field.

Nice show of force on the Harbor Seal haul-out beach! Pups are getting bigger but still hang about with mom and the males are starting to sidle over for occasional attempts at picking up a female. She's napping while her baby nurses, buddy, back off.
It's fun to watch the pups as the waves move in and out, as they aren't yet used to tides ('help me! oh"). Not as fun as watching 2+-ton marine mammals start up from their sleep and bellow at the sky in outrage because of a sudden downpour, of course, but still amusing.

Helloooo!! I'm awake again, posting from the hospital!
I had my surgery in Monday to fix some stuff in the liver, something went wrong though and I was put to sleep for a while, which turned into three days. So, now it's Wednesday here, I'm awake again, there's some tube in my mouth and I can't talk, but I have my phone and slowly I'm waking up and feeling weird, but not terribly bad. Belly hurts a lot, I assume from the surgery, but I'm waiting in my doctor to drop by and tell me what's going on, the nurse couldn't tell me a lot so far.

I had the most crazy dreams while in artifical coma, I remember that we found out right in this chat that the famous old painter Rembrandt was actually posting in byob and we taught him how to shitpost, there also were images of a baby dog cuddling and I suddenly my mom split into two moms and also there was a famous German TV cook that tried to sell me some weed...
Oh so many things I can barely remember! I wonder how many of those are actually crazy visions of the future :haibrower:

I don't mean to be political but I believe that immigration should start confiscating large suitcases at the border unless the bearer can pass a simple proficiency test and groups found walking four or more abreast on walkways and in stations should be summarily executed.
