Let him do his thing, and then you get him out. No messing with him for laughs.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I was out catching Pokemon on my walk yesterday evening and came across this little fellow: [link]

Taken with my new Samsung S7 Edge, which replaced my 2nd Note7 (which did not blow up), which had replaced my 1st Note7 (which also did not blow up).

I'm impressed by how well it corrected for the low light level in a shady area darkening further as the sun set. I can see more detail in the picture than I could see in person when I took the snap.

I love my Samsung S7 Edge!

Always Anti-fascist!

Misunderstandings happen, Gud, give yourself a break. It's not okay with me that you appear to live in your own house like the all-thumbs trainee at Pizza Hut. Kind of reminds me of "My Cat From Hell" also. Oftentimes, the assertive cat stops going after the timid cat once the timid cat acts as though he has some right to be in the space.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I held on to my Note3 as long as I did because it had a removable battery. When the LG V20 is released in a couple weeks I will be checking it out in the store and trying to decide if I want to do a trade-in for it, just because it does offer a removable battery.

That's...not a Pokemon, right?

He declined to join my squad.

Cute, though.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Yup, me too. My usual MO is to come here, start what I think is going to be a supportive post, realize that it's 80% me whining about what a fuck up I am, stop, edit out about 70% of that shit, and then hit post.

Wait...we're supposed to edit that shit out???

I think most of us manage a fair balance of supportiveness and venting about our own lives, and it all works out!

I'm considering going back to Samsung for my next phone. I love my pure Android Nexus, but the camera is SO SO SHITTY and apparently the one on the Pixel isn't a huge improvement.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Okay! Moving date is definitely confirmed for next Wednesday. It's all happening in one day, which will be shitty while it happens, but then it will be over.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

So my MIL is staying here tonight so she can help me get the little guy into the car tomorrow night. (Gary's away on business.) Assume the usual pros and cons of this arrangement. :)
