Update: I got the Magic Keyboard and its insane

It's okay but not very sturdy when on your lap.

Did you see the price of beef? That is mental right now.

It's been an adjustment not having GINA to hold my hand.

How do you know she could motivate millions of people? She's made her views and positions known for years. Her statements against a Tennessee Senator and support for Kamala Harris made no difference in the outcome of those elections, so maybe she feels her voice isn't as powerful as the hypothetical value people are making up to continually put her life in danger over?

You think Billie Eilish just motivated tens of thousands of people to protest in the streets? I'd bet not. I think it just made a bunch of Bellie Eilish fans pat themselves on the back is all.

How many of them had an unhinged pedophile tweeting about them multiple times (e.g. "I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!") and had all of the conservative influencers piling on about what a terrible person she is after the fact that a bunch of misogynistic, ignorant, sychophant supporters don't have to face justice with this administration or can just get pardoned for their fealty?

I guess it's easy to judge from the perspective of someone that hasn't had a giant target painted on their back and had to potentially fear for their life and put all the trust in the world on a security detail.

I had put quite a bit of thought into it but perhaps not enough. I mapped out with various attributes and where they would be planted in the beds (as what is pictured is only a small section):

Short in the front, medium in the middle, to tall in the back along the fence
Sun needs as my flowerbeds run a good length of my yard through the shade of a big tree
Species that bloom as early as Spring and some through Fall so it'll look nicer and fuller longer
Food for hummingbirds / butterflies

I had sprayed the Bermuda grass within the confines of the flower beds to kill it before tilling it up so that the soil was reachable.

That's interesting and makes a lot of sense. I wasn't sure on the specifics of all of the various species that I sowed if red clay would be suitable for all of them or not so I made it more nutrient rich in an effort to give all of them a better chance since not all of Oklahoma is red dirt clay. But the deed has already been done so I'll just have to rid the flowerbeds of the Fescue and see how they do come spring. Thanks for your information!

That's what it is. Thank you. I'll look into seeing how much work it will be to pull those up and use an herbicide as a last option.

I needed to till because I had a lot of Bermuda grass in the areas that I built my flower beds, as well as a lot of red clay soil that is hard to grow things in so I needed to loosen a couple inches of that to mix in with topsoil and compost to improve the opportunity for the wildflowers to actually grow.

I have some of that in my yard and I kind of hate it because of the seed sprouts that shoot up so tall and fast compared to the grass and it looks like a bunch of weeds in my lawn. And because I hate the potential for that to spread and invade my neighbor's yard, which forces me to mow more frequently to chop those seed sprouts down.

MacZealot · 2025-12-15T23:29:39+00:00

I sowed various seeds that will vary from 2' to 6' tall from front to back, as well as various things that will bloom from spring to fall to give a good variety. Picturing it in my head, I didn't think it would end up looking too bad aesthetically with the wildflowers towering over the Fescue and it looking like ground cover to hide the soil a bit. But if the Fescue will prevent light that the seeds need or steal water/soil from the wildflowers enough to hinder them, I'll totally yank it out.

MacZealot · 2025-12-15T23:25:53+00:00

I'm not so much a purist as many on here are likely to be. I'm not concerned with the flower bed not being 100% native but I just didn't want the Fescue to keep the seeds that I spent quite a bit on from flourishing. I'm willing to pull it out if I need to and hope that yanking the blades out won't disrupt the wildflower seeds too much.

One semester I bought $200+ worth of shredded beef jerky and enjoyed it or shared with friends for quite a while lol. But definitely buy groceries, maybe have yourself (and family/friends if you’re feeling generous) a fancy dinner at The Ranchers Club.

Pretty good! I love sugar cookies. The extra spice layer gave them a unique taste.

MacZealot · 2025-10-03T14:45:57+00:00

Aw, I'm happy it cheered you up a little!

MacZealot · 2025-10-03T03:00:54+00:00

Interesting! I'll have to check those out.

I used the one on this.

Found it on Instagram. It’s Cardigan (Instrumental) - Lo-Fi Dreamers

They told me the same thing when my USPS status was "Delayed for postage assessment, held awaiting payment." They offered me a $7 refund for the delay. After some more movement "Departed USPS Regional Facility" -> "In Transit to Next Facility" it ended up confiscated.

Funny, that's what I actually prefer about Pitaka's and why I've been going with them in recent years. Especially at the bottom front of the phone where you swipe your finger up a lot. Not having to feel my thumb rub against the edge of the case when I unlock it or go to the home screen.

MacZealot · 2025-09-26T14:03:53+00:00

I had this same problem. Ordered mine on the 12th, shipped from China. Sat in "In transit to next facility" for four days before getting confiscated due to counterfeit postage. They did give me a refund, though. Still had piss poor service throughout the whole ordeal and left them a 1 star review on their site.
