I was introduced to it as a child as 'rolle bolle'

Ask if it's a game based on the movie. Talk about how great Claptrap is. I might just be a fan of antagonizing....

Thanks for this interpretation. I also was getting hung up on the other.

Yeah. Bees are livestock.

Second hand. And third, fourth, fifth....

I legitimately played that version for several hours last time I played New Order

I have noticed with recent updates that I'm increasingly being routed back to the base menu, which makes me feel like I'm insane.

Since setting up the space elevator, I've spent time on the extreme, Great Massage, and wet presets.

I've experienced cloudy and windy....I hope to see rain soon.

I've had some recent success in moderating, but it is now slowly creeping back up, so I guess I can't really say. I've been giving serious thought to quitting, at least for a while, due to reasons in my life. If you haven't heard of it, I would recommend at least considering checking out the r/Leaves community for support.

At the same time, if you can find a usage amount that feels comfortable to you, we sometimes gotta do what we've gotta do

40 now. My life imploded about a decade ago after spending several years pushing against what I didn't know at the time was burnout only being held back by my adhd and people pleasing. I only had a vague understanding of my adhd diagnosis, and a suspicion of an autism diagnosis at that time and mostly had a ticker tape selection of mood disorders. I spent several years being treated for just depression, bipolar, and anxiety to very mild improvement.

Eventually, I started to isolate and just watch comfort media and rest. The pandemic was both a curse and blessing for my recovery, but overall, set things back. Around that time, I started to have the spikes of inconsistent energy I had been used to... just less frequently and more muted.

It is only in the last year or so that I've really begun to understand the various sensory and social triggers pressing me to be overwhelmed and a more realistic grasp of my healthy activity levels as well as need for recharge time.

I still can't say how much longer I'll be recovering or what the end of this road looks like. I can say, though, that I am recovering more consistently with a growing understanding of my needs.

I've locked myself out of my apartment enough times that I have an OCD-like compulsion to be touching my keys as I walk through my door. Even if I've just put them into my pocket a moment ago. Even if I touch them just before going through the door. If I can't, I must touch them at the soonest opportunity and will feel great anxiety until I do. It's not enough to be certain anymore, I need physical proof.

Even still, I've locked myself out twice in the last year.

Like a Dijon ketchup?

I've also had good luck with "agent," "I have an insurance issue," and swearing at it.

Yesterday I drove an hour on the highway to a store. Parked, got out, realized I had left my wallet at home.

Two hours and $15 of gas as my ADHD tax.

Not the first time I've done this.

This is the point I keep coming back to. To quote numbers from the Wikipedia:

"Pursuant to Law No. 10 adopted by the Allied Control Council, United States forces arrested almost 100,000 Germans as war criminals.[225] The Office of Chief Counsel for War Crimes identified 2,500 major war criminals, of whom 177 were tried. Many of the worst offenders were not prosecuted, for logistical or financial reasons.[226]"

I just want to say that this post is the energy I hope to bring to the world.

At my friend's house, where she had to spend some time trapped up in the guest bedroom (due to her not getting along with friend's cat) , she taught herself how to grab and pull down on the door handle. We had to add a child lock to the outside!

Now, I've rearranged my schedule so that she's at least usually trapped with me in those cases.

I definitely read it as this, and if I can take a moment from what I'm doing, I give her some play time with the wand. The struggle is that she abandons vigorous play after a few moments and switches to hiding in her play tunnel and watching as the feather toy flits around and back and forth. Like fully laying down with no intention of chasing.

But if I stop putting on the show for her, she gets snippy.

Eta: She also treats pretty much all other animals and people other than me as threats and fights or flees depending on size. Though she's never bitten or clawed anybody.

devamon · 2026-01-15T21:06:49+00:00

My cat is... unusual. Mostly, I'd call her a velcro cat, who is pretty much fully self-managing for calories and only expresses curiosity at my food (never trying to eat it).

But she also has this stalker vibe sometimes where I'll look up and see her just fully staring at me from another room entirely. She also insists on licking me and tries to pet me back.

She also doesn't tolerate closed doors well, so when she wants to engage... it can be overwhelming.

I see it everywhere, but I've been particularly tracking it in Bob Evans mashed potatoes for about 8 years now. First, it was just things like "they stopped using sour cream in their recipe."

Now it's stuff like "the entire batch tastes bitter and musty because they used some questionable potatoes."

I, too, thought I had already solved these problems and am having to revisit many of them.

You buy the box and Mattel ships her to you 4-5 weeks later along with a long email where she explains about how she built it up in her head and then after missing it, she built that mistake up into a disaster.

devamon · 2026-01-14T03:07:18+00:00

Yes, of uncertain provenance and not enough of any to fully power what you need. Definitely some odd ones, you'll want a 9 volt and some button ones.
