But what if? i insulted a jerk; isn’t justice?

I’m warning you- post again in this thread and you’ll be suspended temporarily. You’ve made it quite clear that your purpose in life is to inflict suffering and forment contention, and you will not do either on any of my threads

My morning breaking fast routine, usually includes a bowl of Weet-bix cereal, either Liptons tea cuppa or an Italian espresso but today for some unknown reason arising from deep rem, I’d a particular craving for a ‘Jaffle’ (…simply 2 slices of bread/foll/bun etc crammed full with whatever filling of your hearts desire :grinning: ) toasted/grilled in hinged iron tongs, over hot coals.

Jaffle

P.S
I’ll have to hunt down my old jaffle iron, hiding away in storage somewhere methinks - post haste :yum:

Got caught up on work for a bit so the last two days have been nice and just taking my time fixing some scripts that were broken. Still some stuff doesn’t work, but that’s the joy in solving the puzzles as they come. Thankful for stackexchange and the online api.

The shortcut for scaling B-Bones being changed has led to my projects being saved much more frequently.

Semi-Related: I didn’t expect the geonode/shapekey thing I did to still work after applying the decimate modifier. But it does. Really glad I gave it a try now.

Peanuts!!

I can hear the seeds and nuts crackling onto the wooden planks! Reminds me of sanctuaries where I bought seeds of sunflower to feed the small birds and when I got lucky, a blue bird very similar to a Blue Jay.
Over a decade ago now.

We get the occasional cardinal here, but a few weeks ago I found a feather on my walk path to the shop where I do my work behind the house. I was very grateful as it is a blue jay feather. I’ve got it in my pencil cup now.

Love to see a bluebird up close someday! Never seen one around here, yet.

Crowzy has def got some crunching power! Always leaves a little for others to enjoy though. I’d love to strike up a conversation with that bird! Crows are insanely vocal. I try to put out bird feed all year round and some water too. Parents always bring by their young to feed … I don’t own a cat, ha!

With so many wonderful trees here both deciduous and evergreens, the number of bird species must be close to a couple dozen! My feather collection is always expanding, so too is the number of bird nests! Nests get knocked out of the deciduous trees after winter’s heavy snow and spring winds.

I found a store that sells lava rocks for a good price, usually i have trouble finding them in the first place. Going to look great in a new fishtank or terrarium i am going to set up next year.

The northern lights were out in a big way the last few nights here. I haven’t seen them in years as I live farther south than I used to but these were awesome.

Here, yesterday. More or less 400 km south of you (another continent though…)
Solar storm in progress. I’m just waiting for the asteroid :grimacing:

Wow…
Never seen them in my life at all (until now)

it seems really spectacular…
Is it something you got used with time or everytime is something you give a smile on your face?

I don’t see them very often so yes, it is special. What isn’t shown here is they move a lot and change colors, sometimes rapidly. Quite spectacular.

Man! at barely 10 days old, these little fluff balls have warp factor speed growth spurts :dizzy_face: I mean by comparison they’ve already outgrown their eggys 4 - 5 times, a remnant of which can be seen among assorted detritus of leftover dinners.

…and more often than not whenever I click into the live stream all three are flopped about in meat comas, although gotta say cuteness personified nonetheless :grimacing:

Mid morning visit from Felix, our tiny jumping spider roommate who lives in the kitchen window.

Seen here emerging from the shot glass he gets to ride in, every time he is rescued from the sink area.

I took apart and cleaned out my computer and got it all back together without having to take it apart again because I forgot to attach something.

So now my tab key works again. And my fans are no longer doing their best impression of a jet engine.
