POG PUB 2025-2026: About damn time. For a lot of things. But not everything.

I have all kinds of plans but here are a few things I have printed in my first week. A mounting bracket for M18 batteries. A case to hold things. Another case with custom molded interior to hold the tools that came with the printer. A couple stands for PS5 controllers. I will paint in the logo on those with acrylic. A bank to safely dispose of razor blades. A cable organizer. How much would all this crap cost on amazon? It costs me basically nothing now.

All completely vegan btw

ah, a fellow safety razor using man of culture

wish the bathroom razor slot was still a thing - just shove them in between the walls and let god sort it out

I have a full beard, it's for utility blades.

I have used safety razors. I remember having a big heavy one called maybe barberpole and thin Japanese blades called I think Feather? Hell of a shave.

You know the great poem

A little caulk
A little paint
Makes a carpenter
What he ain't?

Beards are the caulk and paint
of looking like a possums taint

I stressed out and broke everything today. Ate pig sausage. Ate dairy. Got takeout even though I gave it up for Lent. Drank carbonated beverages which I've been trying to trim back on. Lost my temper and called someone on discord a "hideous little troll" and bought both napa cabbage and bok choi as well as three kinds of mushrooms in a bizarre grocery order where I forgot to get the one item that triggered me into ordering groceries and now can't get until tomorrow (rubber gloves for cleaning my bathroom due to a plumbing issue.)

On the flip side, I did not plan on making moo shu this week, but somehow ordered every ingredient that I need, including the hoi sin sauce which is a pantry staple for me. I love moo shu, so that's a small win. And the plumbing issue is resolved now, which is a much bigger win. But it is 7 pm and I am going to bed. I am so over this utter fail of a day.

Vr, your nightmare day sounds like my standard day.

I had a hash brown for breakfast and a McDonald's filet o fish sandwich, fries and diet coke for lunch.

You're on discord!?!? I wouldn't have guessed that.

I hope tomorrow goes better. 😀

VR is going hog wild!!!!!

"hideous little troll"
napa cabbage!
THREE kinds of mushrooms!!!

omfg! slow down there! take it easy! :p <3

i've never had a filet o fish. I should probably get one before I die.

how much was your mcdonalds lunch?

I filled my tank up(on my prius) at shell station for an extra 6 dollars cuz I couldn't be botherd to go to a cheaper gas station.

and idk... maybe I'm a scumbag for this? please world, educate me if I'm wrong. but I don't tip the cashier at the casino. I mean I tip the dealers, chip runners, food servers, porters... but tipping the cashier idk.. just seems like a bridge too far? am I wrong?

My grandson uses discord to voice chat whilst playing video games. I have to turn it off after he leaves or it bings all the time.

I believe it came directly out of the need for high speed voice communications during World of Warcraft endgame raids. I haven't had a need to use it.

Didn't they recently start enforcing age verification via facial scanning? And then it came out that all the data went directly into Peter Thiels laptop? Not the best.

I did fall asleep, yay, but now I'm awake again, boo!

Thank you for the perspective, everyone. I got discord originally for writing discussion and now use it for the occasional werewolf game, when I indulge, plus more writing interactions. So not exactly a high pressure situation and I'm mad at myself for not having more self control than to lose my mind and have a tirade at someone.

I fell asleep almost immediately and the world feels brighter than it did before I got 180 minutes or so of rest. I barely slept at all last night thanks to the aforementioned plumbing problem. But man, I am just so flipping tired of being me today. I fully recognize that there are millions of people with worse situations than having what amounts to too much cabbage and every mushroom in the store, but, full disclosure, I left a lot out of my original post that has been weighing on me lately.

And, filthy, since it IS Lent now, you could actually try a DOUBLE filet-o-fish for a very reasonable price, if you wanted to go hog wild right along with me. It's probably more calories than you eat in a typical day, though, so if you do, I wouldn't plan on playing any poker afterwards. You'll likely want a nap.

The filet-o-fish deals require using the McDonald's app. And only on Friday's during Lent.

Filthy, the filet-o-fish is $2.50, large fries is $1.68 and drink is $1.29

Martin Luther's McD's order: Big Mac, large fries, chocolate shake, cookies

He's not Catholic you see.

actually young filthyvermin, who has quite a bit in common with mark, made the calculation "if you spend x amount on drinks at each meal, and just change to water, you'll be saving 3x a day, 21x a week, that's really gonna add up! and you like water anyway, and it's healthy?!?!? this is a no brainier!"

so 40 years ago now... that's about 30,000x i've saved(cuz I do have drinks sometimes). probably 30k. free car. just for drinking water. and I like water! it's my favorite drink anyway. other drinks are just water contanimated with other crap

Idk wtf going on but every red shouldered hawk in the county is circling above my yard cawing like mad or whatever it is they do. Screech?

Probably either courtship behavior (embarrassing) or territorial dispute (based), I don't know anything abour hawks tho, you'd need atakdog or something.

I wonder what atak is up to. I think we're fb friends. Last I saw he was the King of Bridge or something.

In my neighborhood, crows relentlessly bully the hawks. Serious wimps.

I don't get crows often but the mockingbirds here bully the squirrels. More than once I have seen them chasing a squirrel down a power line.

Mockingbirds don't play about their nests they divebombed (dovebomb?) me regularly at my old apartment bc I had to walk my dog past their designated nesting area. They will actually hit you with their bodies.

I buy big bags of raw in the shell peanuts to feed the crows and blue jays. They love those things. I get a mockingbird occasionally at the birdbath but can't get them hooked on anything I try to feed them. I have a steady stream of red bellied and downy woodpeckers on my suet feeders and cardinals are regular visitors to my feeder. It's great watching the woodpeckers and cardinals feed their babies every year.

My wife is now up to 6 cameras around the yard. The latest is an LTE camera that doesn't need to be in wifi range.

Some birds that won't take anything from a feeder will take mealworms from an open tray.

6 cameras is incredible coverage, is this going into stream deck and then streaming anywhere with AI switching OBS camera angles?

3 different vendors/apps (sigh)

my main phone, that I've had for like 8 months, I've never installed an app on it. gf gets so annoyed that I don't have apps on my phone

in fairness to her, it is pretty annoying

Why? You seem to be a user of social media.
