I finished Penguin last night. (Still haven’t finished Dark S3, but I’ve had friends staying with me for the last five days, and we decided to watch Penguin together since they don’t have HBO.)

Holy shit, that was so freaking good. Best DC anything I’ve seen since Dark Knight. I absolutely loved the ending so much, to the point where I’m lowkey hoping they don’t make a season 2, cause the ending was just perfect.

Overall it was just a phenomenal show. Zero complaints at all.

I liked how Oswald took care of any loose ends before his brand new start.

For some damn reason, my smartphone strains my eyes. Monitors and TV don't do this.

I have been watching some Dan Harmon rants. He is pretty funny.

what's the opposite of gate keeping?

you get weirdos who think they own something and nobody else can join in unless x, y, and z is met but you have even weirder people who don't want to be part of anything. instead of being proud of something it's like nah fuck that i don't want to offend anyone!!

it's just as fucking annoying but that's me 🤷‍♂️

Yeah fuck that indeed

HAPPAY FRIDAY!

I hope they survived

Happy friday guys. Anyone any plans? I'm probably gonna chill at a friend's; exhausted af. Wanna hit the gym but my body is all fucked up atm. Better to rest me thinks.



Cold showers are cold now so that's a plus.

Happy Friday all. It's cold as fook here!

None at all. Had to take the car in for a service, well, he picked it up for us so that saved freezing my arse off, which was nice..

Other than that, might watch that Substance film later, or try Stalker 2 again. It's a bit shite on veteran difficulty though. Everything's a bullet sponge 🧽

Standing in line at the Montreal Forum in the freezing cold at 3 AM for some Van Halen tickets in 1984 were the good old days!

NOT! 😋

That online queue thing is shit.

I used to sit outside the ticket shop from about midnight. Me and my friends would skateboard down to the city at midnight then sit outside the shop until it opened. It was fun but times have changed! It’s all online now and I’m too old to be sitting about the streets for hours.

We’d do the same when the actual show was about to happen. Get down to the venue at midnight and try be first in the line to get to the front of the crowd. That was even longer maybe about 18 hours. We made a whole day of it.

To be young, skipping school, have no job or a care in the world.

This stupid mail forwarding service I use will not let me use the slow, USPS shipping.

Since I am gone on a trip next week, I was going to use that and put my mail on hold.

So, I am going to let it sit in their warehouse instead. I am not going to risk a UPS delivery while I am gone.

My cat hasn't got hyperthyroidism, he has stage 2 kidney disease and hypertension. The hypertension has caused him to become blind.

He is on medication to reverse the blindness hopefully. He is walking in to objects and falling off of objects.

Fuck vets, fuck them until their arseholes fall out!

poor kitty :( hope everything works out for you.

vets are money robbing bastards. my cat was £50 just to test her urine (nothing wrong with her. typical). that didn't include the £40 just to see her for them to say oh you should get a urine test done. £90 gone.

my other cat was £460 to basically shave her and give her tablets. i had no idea what was happening but they made it out like she could die so yeah of course i'm gonna cough up the money to help her. turns out there was fuck all wrong with her....well she did need shaved because she was covered in glue. but i thought she had been poisoned and the vet was like we need to put her under, shave her, bath her, inject this, give her these tablets.

i mean i get it ... if she had been poisoned then totally worth it but i really think they should've known better. if i wasn't so fucking stupid and ignorant i'd have been able to save so much money. oh well. the main thing is she's safe and healthy.

My heart goes out to you, bro.

Are there any alternatives to the vets in your area? I have no idea how these things work in the UK.

i'm starting to realise that i've gone down the biggest rabbit hole ever.

i've opened so many pokemon packs and it looks like i've hardly made a dent. shit this is one expensive hobby. maybe i had the right idea buying single cards....

oh well too late now but might be more selective in the future which expansions i buy.

They've rinsed us for a grand so far. When we're down to just the tortoise I don't think we will be getting anymore pets again. It's soul destroying being with them when they're euthanised.

i know. having to put my kitties to sleep is one of the hardest things i've ever had to do in my life. it was the kindest thing for them but it was fucking awful.

for years i didn't want anymore pets but i missed having them. i dread the day when i need to say goodbye to these 3 little monsters. i wouldn't trade my time with them for anything in the world but when their time comes then that's it. no more pets for me. it's too difficult.

Man that's right shit. I hope he gets his eye sight back!

And I'm with you on the vets thing. I swear some of them aren't even vets! We've had some right winners in the past.

Aye been there so many times too! The worst is the blood test, what is it now? £260? Maybe more and even then it's a hit or miss most times.

After my old boy had to be out to sleep last month I was so pissed at the cost and everything that happend I actually looked into becoming a vet

Yeah, they didn't make that easy or viable if your a bit older.

I wanted to at least get on the ladder and help others who couldn't afford it as I think quite a few vets take the utter piss when it comes to pet care, it's borderline evil.

Never say never! I was in the same boat and said the exact same thing after I lost one of the best cats I've ever had, never known a character like him, only had him ten years and he died of cancer, it was right shit.

A couple of years later I had four cats, and a fish. Through no fault of my own, well, one if the cats was, the rest were strays and the goldfish was what my four year old wanted at the time.. even that fish lived for years, 8!

It never works out how you expect.
