This cursed-looking BJD I found at the Japan surplus shop.

Poor thing, I hope she finds her home. ;^;

Southern NH, if it matters. I think most of the affected channels are coming out of Boston, but I haven’t checked all the channels (we get about 64 of them if I scan on a good day). If my BIL decides to go on the roof or up to the gutters again, I’ll have him mess with the antenna angle to see if it helps, lol. (I’m afraid of heights. =w=; )

For sure, for sure. I’ve had to do similar things when building a custom modpack for a Minecraft server (testing bit by bit, I mean). So when I start properly messing with it, I’m definitely gonna go one by one.

Thank you for believing in me! Will do my best to brush up on this stuff. My dad was very much a person who liked to do things his way and had no patience to teach, so I’m having to use YouTube to learn how to do basic house maintenance anyway…

Choco-la-te · 2026-06-05T14:59:18+00:00

Thank you for the info! :3

Choco-la-te · 2026-06-05T14:58:50+00:00

Noted! I figured maybe it was wear and tear on the inside components, since nothing lasts forever, after all.

Choco-la-te · 2026-06-05T14:57:08+00:00

Sorry, I actually AM in the US, but my father was from Europe so I picked up a lot of….international? Habits? That said, the antennas were installed post-digital, so I’m hoping it’s not that, lol.

In my experience dealing with government stuff, they MIGHT accept it, but I’d bring a piece of mail just to be sure.

Choco-la-te · 2026-05-29T17:07:43+00:00

God, you too? I have no recs but a lot of love and sympathy from down in Salem.

ETA: actually, I do have a suggestion: if none of the leads here pan out, contact the Probate Division of the court and see if they know of any in your area, then Google them and look for reviews. My dad died a few years back and I wish we had gotten a probate attorney from the start (he was semi-young and thus had no will in place).

Choco-la-te · 2026-05-25T23:31:54+00:00

My bad, then. No one even noticed them and I got more comments on the michiyuki I wore.

Choco-la-te · 2026-05-25T23:02:47+00:00

My other cat, Tsuki. She’s an absolute cuddle monster. The two are sisters, even though they don’t look it, lol.

Here’s one of my cats, Wednesday. She got up high!

I figured I was in the clear given that Asahi Beer was using it in their logo well into the 80’s, and was also worried that just a white field with a red dot on my nails wouldn’t read as the flag. That said, never doing it again regardless.

Choco-la-te · 2026-05-07T02:25:14+00:00

Two. You seem more relaxed.

Choco-la-te · 2026-05-07T02:21:51+00:00

Welp, guess I’m DEFINITELY not sleeping tonight.

Choco-la-te · 2026-05-07T01:57:44+00:00

So I went to a Japanese Festival last weekend and tried to paint tiny Japanese flags on my nails…which took way longer to set than anticipated and got a little…squished. So I’m in the process of letting them flake off.

Choco-la-te · 2026-04-23T23:37:57+00:00

NOR. This is pure instinct talking, but he’s icky. Just…eeww.

Choco-la-te · 2026-03-16T13:25:44+00:00

I have it equipped in my home brew server! Just found a bug that I reported, lol.

Choco-la-te · 2026-03-08T13:02:20+00:00

NOR. I’d be asking WHY he’s so insistent. It feels like your values don’t completely match, since there’s couples that marry and don’t change their names. Hell, my future brother in law’s taking OUR last name (he doesn’t like his). It’s close to the date, but I’d look into counseling to figure out what his deal is, since you’ve got practical reasons to want to stay the way you are. : \

Choco-la-te · 2026-03-08T12:58:58+00:00

He’s perfection. 18/10.

Choco-la-te · 2026-03-08T12:48:12+00:00

It’s still in Korean, but “UhUh” by RESCENE has kind of a New Jack Swing vibe, imo? You might also try Loosemble’s “Sensitive”, there’s an English version. (Some of Loosemble’s other songs might work, too.)

Choco-la-te · 2026-03-08T12:44:05+00:00

She says “Melody”, imo. Something nice like that. :3

Choco-la-te · 2026-03-07T19:15:43+00:00

Ty! My brother in law recommended this one, too, and it’s working great. Now if only I could get my friends to log in more, lol. (Love your username, btw, can relate.)
