It's in f-ing Australia. They have spiders so damn big there you can here them physically make a thunking sound when they launch themselves at your face only to end up in the wastebasket you used to catch them. Those asshole launchers team up and teach the Hunter spiders that trick, you will see people getting launched into the sun. Along with koalas. Making this exact noise as they are yeeted past New Zealand.

There is a level of shock involved in news of this nature. She had always just been and it's hard to think that that is no longer the case. She was one of those people that you kind of knew even if you didn't exactly hang out in an officially open capacity. We may be names on a screen but we are still a family. Her last post. I hope she got her wish.

I dared to open the windows to get some fresh air through here and some chud is smoking pot somewhere which is getting into my apartment. The building is non-smoking so there's two party fouls going on and they both smell like skunk ass.

I don't really do specific music for cleaning. If there's nothing on for general background noise, I might turn to the soundscapes channel on TV or a lofi channel on youtube just for something. Marathons of 'Hoarding: Buried Alive' playing in the background make me feel better about whatever stupid mess I'm fighting with though. I may have just dealt with an entire army of invasive cat toys the kitten has scattered around the room like land mines waiting for an unsuspecting foot to find them but at least I don't use a 5 gallon bucket in a hallway as a toilet.

Dried lavender as a carpet deodorizer and a cinnamon clove spray in the back of the bookcases by the wall. When I build the shelves, I don't put backs on them so I'm able to get behind them for a more thorough cleaning just by removing all the books in that particular section. I have a pet human skull named Toothless George that can do the gatekeeping just fine.

If it makes you feel better, you don't have to remove all shelved books/items twice a year to clean on and around them to keep the spiders away.

I have my own library. I think it's nearing 3,500 books with a healthy collection of comics as well. It's no living on the top of a building stuffed full of books but I wouldn't mind that. Actually the last time I was there I only bought two books too. I only stopped briefly because it was threatening to rain and they had the latest Dresden novella and the final volume of 'Jujitsu Kaisen'. The last time I was at my favorite used bookstore, however, I got ~30 books because....books.

Please. If they can survive me showing up, your two tiny books about poisoning and murder mean nothing.

Attention Bellatoria. Don't call it 'Ultimate Pepperoni' unless the pepperoni in question has to be overlapped in order to fit on the little personal pizza. It's a LITTLE pizza, it shouldn't be that hard to include more than 8 tiny circles.

My apartment flooded last night. I'm soooo tired and the whole place is an absolute disaster. I was so close to getting everything put away from the bedroom closet shelves breaking too. I need to win the lotto.

Blue food coloring in general doesn't break down at all. Fun story - I solved the case of who/what destroyed the bathroom at WS after seeing the aftermath for 0.01 seconds. It was the person who ate the piece with the biggest buttercream BLUE rose on Chris' Happy Vasectomy cake. Kind of surprised they didn't need an inflatable pillow on their work chair after that bomb went off.

^^^ Me: I need to buckle down and balance all my ledgers/pay the bills before I go forth and buy more stuff. Also Me: HOLY CRAP! CHEWY HAS THOSE RUBBER LIZARD THINGS THAT BABY KITTEN LOVES TO DECAPITATE! *buys 6 of them.

It was 'Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom with Marlin Perkins'. You have to say the whole thing or it doesn't count! Also, the tv weighed like 600 pounds and had a pull knob to turn on. You had to wait for the tubes to warm up and the screen started with a tiny dot in the center that slowly got bigger.

Moved so we can continue to push the 'When I was YOUR age' scenarios that make us feel young again. Ovaltine. That is all.
