For me its not only that. Its just another censorship to move to this american values system being forced on us that its OK to take a life but not make it mindset. its just infuriating. Its unhealthy for the individual and society.Meh I deleted my tumblr just out of protest.And today is Grey Monday, when we all have to sign the Tumblr Anti-Smut Loyalty Oath, after that platform decided to ban naughty images.
Oh, how I wish it were possible to find such material elsewhere online.
I will not go into detail here other than to say this is a massive error on their part, as they are literally committing the act that killed their predecessor and caused tumblr to rise to prominence.
Also, a good 80 percent of my adult comics/blogs are on hiatus until they find a place to land.
I'm finding it worse that it's a clear case of profit margins mattering more than freedom of expression. We're in an era where communication is more important than ever, but gotta get that money, so to hell with it.
I recall also hearing about tumblr's parent company suppressing conversation about net neutrality, for example. Can't be having that. -_-
Also, my legs feel like rubber. Maybe I shouldn't have gotten drunk last night, but meh. I'm in my 30s, I can handle a little debauchery.

Yes, but it got them pulled from the Apple store. In this specific situation, making nice with the megamillion-dollar corporation > maintaining userbase.
Basically, in trying to court the biggest dollar sign, they've overlooked how badly this is going to shoot them in the foot financially when they drive away their userbase. I don't disagree with you, but the powers that be at tumblr weren't thinking of that when they made this call.

It used to be a thing (and you can do non pvp srvers btw) that some alliance scum would come to the horde starting area and kill noobs. So then we high level horde players would have to go in and gank some gankers. That in its way is fun. They started it so they deserve it.
I hardly ever remember horde players doing that kind of thing.
I think there was a gaming survey back in the late 90's ranking the Biggest A-holes in gaming. The alliance apparently won it with flying colors. Despite the fact that it was for an individual not a group.
How... Why... What... But...

With the Xmas date coming closer and closer, I think it's time for my usual plug. :P
It is a listing of Steam games for which I have acquired, perfectly legitimately, mostly through bundles and the like, spare Steam keys for. And, as the keys are spare, they are up for grabs for anyone and everyone who is interested in the same, whether for personal use or to gift on to another. :)
I maintain the list on my profile, and it is always open to all takers, but this time of year I find to be a good time to serve a gentle reminder that it exists, and that it is free of charges, strings, and any other unfortunate tangly bits.
The list has grown to 625 individual games, with some famous names such as ARMA, Bioshock, Borderlands, Dead Rising, Max Payne, Psychonauts, Resident Evil, Saints Rows, Serious Sam, Civilization, Tropico, and X-Com, making an appearance. So, please, consider giving these poor, unplayed games a home this Xmas. ;)

So...girlfriend's job, about a month back, straight up didn't pay her. They made up for it the next paycheck, but we were left scrambling to pay bills on time, and when we tried to complain, payroll had no sympathy. It was a company wide thing.
This week 9 people quit her company. They have less than 20 employees...or whatever it takes to get away with not giving benefits and other crap like that. So it's a huge loss for them. The company is going down. Hard.
She got a new job today. She's starting tomorrow. Less per hour, but more hours and an easier job with a bigger, more professional company, so it all evens out. This one gives benefits eventually, and is less of a drive...it's actually better.
She didn't even give them two weeks.
Them: "I can't believe you didn't even give us two weeks"
Her: "I can't believe you didn't pay me. Remember that?"
I am so proud of her.

I have survived my colonoscopy!
And:
(1) It was far more pleasant than anyone would have you realize. The night before is a nightmare. The day of is, "Here, let us lay some warm blankets on you while you breathe through this tube. OK! We're done! Hope you had a nice nap!"
(2) Everything looks normal! With a father who died of prostate cancer and a brother with pre-cancerous polyps, I'll take it!

What is your purge strategy btw? I'm eating nothing but fruit and beans, and taking insane amounts of Miralax, and I'm still just treading water. Going to see my GI who knows when, and I'm looking for suggestions. :)

Have you ever tried senna leaf tea?
I bought some once from an herb shop because it was randomly placed with the other herbal teas and (a) I hadn't heard of its special properties and (b) didn't want to admit it to the snooty girls behind the counter.Later that week, I brewed a strong cup for my ex, right before he went to work as a night-shift baggage handler at DFW.
The other guys on his crew made fun of him for MONTHS.

The narrators of the WoT audiobooks are really starting to annoy me; their pronunciations sound like every time is the first time they're reading Jordan's invented words. Like how would you say 'gleeman', as a citizen of Jordan's fantasyland? Probably after the third time you said it, the A would become that vague-vowel upside-down E sound that so many English vowels become in the course of everyday use, so you'd say 'gleemən'. But the narrators say gleeman. Every. Single. Time.
Also, weird emphaseses (emphasi?) and more awkward pronunciations:
Demandred: Dee-mon-dred, rather than Deh-man-dred
Salidar: Sal-ee-dar, rather than Salədar
Trakand: Trak-and or Trak-ond, rather than Trakənd
I think after I finish book 5 I'm gonna have to take a break from WoT, which makes me sad bc I'm a completionist and I wanted to read them straight thru...but it's getting to be too much.

So, by doctor's orders:
(1) 6 days of 1 capful a night (15 mg) Miralax just to loosen things up a bit(2) Start fasting the night before. I started at 8:30 pm, post-Miralax
(3) During your day of fasting, at noon, take FOUR 5 mg tablets of bisacodyl (Fleet). At 5:00 pm, drink a liter of Gatorade with EIGHT capfuls (136 mg) or Miralax. At 3:00 am, drink another liter of Miralax with another seven capfuls of Miralax (119 mg).
If THAT doesn't clear your gut, I don't know what will...

senna leaf. Pah. That's for babies.
You wanna prove how tough you are, you drink senna root.
Yes, it is actually called Caribbean drano.
Yes, it works like its nickname.
Yes, it causes debilitating pain and cramps if you drink too much. Not a few women have said men who want to know what awful menstrual cramps are like should drink senna root.
No, you can't buy it in America anymore, because we're all wusses. Also, see above.
My grandmother did nothing but smile when making me drink it as a child. Because don't you know children need to be cleaned out once a month? They don't, but good luck telling a Caribbean grandma that.

I'm super regular. I drink a lot, mostly black coffee, unsweetened tea, and water, and eat lots of fiber. The meat I eat is mostly poultry and occasionally fish, unless I'm eating out at a restaurant.
Sadly even with that I've had weight and BP issues. :-(
My problem is sheer volume. I get really f&$!ing hungry. Also I need to exercise more.

So the stupid [lengthy string of very bad words redacted] woman at the management company that leases us our house, after all the crap we went through earlier this month arguing with her over the validity of our claim for a reduction in rent for the days we had to stay in a hotel while the electrical work was done last month...
NEVER SENT IN THE PAPERWORK TO THE FINANCIAL OFFICE THAT SHE WAS (A) APPROVING OUR CLAIM, or (B) WAIVING THE LATE FEES AND PERMITTING A LATE PAYMENT (BECAUSE SHE JACKED US AROUND FOR DAYS WHILE WE WAITED TO PAY).
and, fabulously, the employees in the part of the financial office where we *pay*, and the part of the financial office where things go to collections/legal, DON'T SHARE INFORMATION unless she makes it so.
So she told the employee to whom we make our payment (yes, you have to make every rent payment, every month, over the phone), BUT SHE LET COLLECTIONS/LEGAL THINK WE WEREN'T PAYING.
So I got a Notice to Vacate in the mail today.
And I called up this evening, hopping mad, politely explained to the nice lady on the other end that, while I was hopping mad and had a grievance, I understood that she was not to blame, so I would do my very best to modulate my tone of voice with her, and she was very helpful and told me to disregard the notice. But told me that, eventually, she would need something in writing from the [lengthy string of very bad words redacted] person.

The top piece is a kind of corset called 'stays'. They are made with reeds in them and are from the 18th century. It took me many many many hours to sew it. But it does wonders for your figure. Even more then the average corset, which just cinches your waist.
This cinches your waist and puts boobs on a platter ;)If you look at this picture You can see why. The reeds all need their own tunnels for a snug fit, and you cant sew that with a machine. You need to do that by hand. You can see them very well in this picture as its sewn with white thread.
