Engineering at its finest. The hatch at the bus was broken and kept slamming against the fire extinguisher while we were in the middle of the road driving. I asked if I could help and the bus driver didn’t really have a choice since it was a danger to him and passengers. I figured I needed to create a barrier that has high friction and capacity to mould itself against the door without harming the frame with what I had in my purse: which was an unused period pad! The pad has a package made of high friction plastic which makes it perfect. 20 minutes in and it is still doing its job 😂🙌🏽.

@tyil i really don't get why they do these shit decisions since one or two years.

der pellmann kann doch froh sein das die ukrainer ihn zurück nach polen und nicht schangheit und an die front gebracht haben!

Sittin on my dad’s farm in the Tall Corn State. Not a single sound but God’s creation. 83 degrees with the cooling winds of the prairie. Resting my soul. Dang it’s been good to unplug for a spell.

All these years of April Fools finally caught up to me, there was NO part of me that believed the old fediverse domain was shutting down, announced 1 April.

Well, silly me, I finally found my account here 3 months later. Big thanks to @sun for making sure I was eventually able to migrate my old account over.

@DCR @Czerion die vögel dankens! ;)

das schlafzimmer ist weitestgehend mückenfrei dank fliegengittern :)

@DCR @Czerion
das ist natürlich blöd. die katze mit kokosfett einreiben ist ja vermutlich leider auch nicht so gut. zumindest wird das nicht für freude bei der katze sorgen, vemute ich :P

@DCR @Czerion danke für die tipps! dieses jahr ists wirklich extrem mit den zecken, besonders den ganz kleinen.

beim auftragen gings mir eher um das DEET zeugs, was zwar ganz wunderbar funktioniert, aber halt synthetisch ist und nicht ganz unbedenklich. das will ich nicht jeden tag draufschmieren :)

ich hab noch gefunden, dass zitroneneukalyptusöl (in zedan ist das wohl auch drin) wohl helfen soll. das probier ich mal kombiniert mit kokosfett. für schwarzkümmel ists ja dieses jahr zu spät, aber ich probiers nächstes jahr mal :)

@cnx i do have a beard!

best i found is lemon eucalyptus oil, i think i'll try that combined with coconut oil. i'm gonna smell like a cocktail xD

does anyone know a good tick repellent? favorably something natural. deet does work but i don't really want to put it on daily for multiple months.

I've ordered a shape sorter thing for the crow. Hopefully it will like it better than my wine, and if it figures it out I'll have it run for US presidentcy 😂

@graf no agenda had a short segment about this, noagendashow.net/listen/1674/t , make of it what you will.

avocados can be very weird if they aren't ripe. they somehow manage to skip right from "not ripe" to "hard AND foul" in a day.

@finlaydag33k @JSkier most suv's have less cargo space than 90s station wagons, most modern trucks have snall beds compared to previous models. that's what i like about that toyota truck, it's no bullshit! :)

of course i don't need it every day, but it would make the occasional transport much more easy.
