A wild update appears!

I’m still alive. My mother is obsessed with what everyone else is doing (including the cats), so I don’t get a huge amount of online time. There’s also been...

It got much deeper than that, but no way I was going to brave it for a picture.

I have an Instagram. It does not have much on it yet, but we shall see.

Crass Commercialism to follow:

I have no income and am unable to work. I have been plugging away at various “click for cash” apps and sites to try to pay for my medications. Of all I have tried, SwagBucks is by far my favorite. You get points for answering quizzes, completing surveys*, searches, and watching videos. The individual payouts look small, but on SwagBucks, 1 point = 1 penny. All other programs 10 points = 1 penny, sooo...

Best of all, you do not have to have a smart phone. There are apps, but these apps are not required to gain and spend points. You can exchange points for gift cards or cash (PayPal), and the cash out amounts are quite reasonable. Set yourself a goal of 100 points per day, and that’s roughly $30 per month.

If you sign up using my referral link, we both get a bonus.

*For surveys, unless you lie, you’re going to have a hard time qualifying. I’m too honest for my own good, so I keep trying until I get credit for my daily poll.

OH NO IMADE A NOISE I WAS NOT EXPECTING

[has-feelings-deactivated2022032]

A funny thing about introducing a new queen into a hive that has lost its queen (or one that you’ve killed because her brood was too fighty). 

You have to introduce the new queen into the hive with these special queen cages that are stopped up with candy, and are open enough to let the hive smell the new queen, but not open enough that they can get in there and kill her.

Because they will kill her. 

When you first put the new queen in she smells like an intruder, but by the time it takes the bees to eat through the candy and free the queen, the queen’s pheromones will have had time to work and the hive will have gotten used to her.

From the outside this kinda seems like: 

“Yeh, we were all going to murder you to death before, but we’re full of candy now, so we’re cool. Oh yeh, and how about you be the new queen and stuff. Yeh, that’s cool too.”

beekeeping is really weird

Listen, strange bee queens lyin’ in cages distributin’ candy is no basis for a system of government.

In the course of late-night youtubing, I ended up watching a bunch of bath bomb videos. And, like, the concept is cool and I totally want to try one, but the dye spreading through the water freaked me out. I’m guessing it’s because of the number of times I’ve had a horrible skin reaction to bath products, but I was totally cool with the few that weren’t dyed. Just...

[chronicillnesshelp]

every healthy person who recommends yoga and vitamin supplements to a person with an incurable illness owes me 10$ pay up uglies

[mylittleghostbunny-deactivated2]

And if they recommend veganism, they have to give 50$.

[nezumiko]

$100 if they say “you just have to have a positive attitude”

[malsmomforever]

$200 if they say “going gluten free really works! You should just try that!”

[aerylon]

The fine is $1,000 if they tell you to”Just go for a walk!  It’ll cure what ails you.”

$2,000 if you use any sort of mobility device.

[iopele]

$100,000 fine for smiling condescendingly and saying “that’s not actually a real condition”

this goes up to $10mil if the speaker is a specialist you’ve waited 6 months to see, who doesn’t take your insurance so you had to pay the outrageous fee up front and out of pocket, who then follows up that statement with “try not to sleep so much and don’t let things bother you”

[fuzipenguin]

Another $100,000 for the specialist that says ‘You’re just hypersensitive to what is happening in your body so you make every little twinge a big thing. Just rest and have plenty of fluids and try not to stress too much’, which came after the statement of ‘I don’t like treating Lyme disease patients; they’re so whiny.”

what society needs to understand is that friendship and romance are not ranks, tiers, or levels. they are not above or below each other. romance is not a promotion. friendship is not a demotion. romance is not “more than” being friends with someone. friendship and romance are concepts that exist on equal terms, side by side. sometimes they happen to coincide. other times they never intersect at all. how relationships are classified is up to the individuals involved but like?? neither is inherently more or less valuable is the thing

the red eyeshine of the alligator occurs when light enters its eyes, passes through the rods (light receptors) and cones (color receptors) of the retina, strikes a membrane behind the retina called a tapeatum, and is then reflected back through the eye to the light source. most of the animals with eyeshine are, like alligators, night hunters who must make use of limited light. photos by larry lynch and david moynahan

I have aimed a flashlight across the water and seen this. It’s eerie (and VERY bright orange/red) but these photos make it look way cooler.
