I had a sign in my yard that said "support trans kids" someone peeled into my driveway, leaving huge ruts in the gravel/mud, and stole the sign one day when I wasn't home. That's when I decided to not voice my opinion openly like that anymore.

I will never express my opinions in places where I can be easily identified unless I am among people I know and trust. I will vote and keep my leftist ideology to myself amongst strangers irl. I rather like living without being bothered.

Part of my job is keeping all of the endpoints my work manages up to date with patch compliance. I've had to create exceptions for the past two windows 11 updates because they won't run on most machines for no reason. It's been a pain in the ass. I can't just add the machines to the exception list without doing basic troubleshooting because "procedure" and I've spent so much time doing absolutely unnecessary shit.

I also have a seatbelts on or I stop driving rule. A lot of people don't want rides from me after I enforce that rule. Like, I'm responsible for their lives as the driver. If they die because they aren't wearing their seatbelts while I was driving, it's my fault for not making them buckle up. I even have seatbelts for my dogs because I want them to be as safe as I am. Passengers lives' are in your hands when you drive. It's really scary if you actually think about it in depth.

Horses are great, but so much work and money. Had them growing up and loved it so much. I can't afford my own horse right now, so I volunteer at a stables (watering and grooming and just helping out in general) and it's enough for me at the moment. I get riding lessons when I can afford them, but it's not on a consistent schedule like the volunteering.
I totally recommend that people get involved with horses in some way if they have the desire. There's a bond between humans and horses that's primal. It runs deeper than any other connection I've experienced. I feel closer to horses than any other creature. Just being in their presence is therapeutic.
Just make sure to stay safe if you aren't experienced with them and have someone teach you what you meed to know to not get stomped or kicked to death. I consider myself as experienced with interacting and being around them and all that, but there are still times where I have close calls.

Honestly.
I have no idea when most events took place in the past (almost 5) years without looking it up.
The pandemic absolutely destroyed my concept of time.
It was free, too. Neighbor was getting rid of it and let me have it.

I got jumped by 3 raccoons last year. Got scratched and had to get rabies shots. I leave a fresh duck egg out every night and the raccoons leave me and my trash alone now. I can't imagine trying to strike a deal with 100 of the fuckers.
She's the best lol

A site of your top 10 fave memes of all time.
I've been chronically ill my whole life. My job was very accommodating while I searched for actual answers. This is the first job I've had where I can actually take time to care for myself without getting in trouble. Anyway, I finally got an answer to what my illness is after desperately searching for 20 years. I have lupus, specifically SLE. I always suspected it, but rheumatologists never took me seriously until now. I have to make a 2 hour trip, one way, to see my doctor, but it's worth it. I sat down with my boss after getting my diagnosis and discussed how the disease could potentially impact my life and working ability. I discussed every important aspect of it so my boss and I are on the same page. He was so supportive and kind and I cried because it is so amazing to be supported like that in the workplace. I truly hope the rest of you can find/have an employer like mine.
She was upset with me at first because she just wanted to graze. Then she got into it when she started trotting around lol
I got a diagnosis today after trying to figure out what's wrong with me for twenty years. My grandmother died at a relatively young age of lupus complications and she had to end her whole career at 36 because she was so sick. I'm 27, and I am terrified I'm going to end up like her. Her quality of life was absolutely awful for the entire time I knew her. I don't want that for myself.
My friend and I want to play modded Minecraft together. We used to use Hamachi when we both had windows machines. Now Hamachi just isn't working. We can connect and communicate on the LAN we made, but I can't connect to the direct connection. There aren't any error messages that help. It just says it couldn't connect. I have a steamdeck and my friend has a Windows desktop. I've done research about it and I am thoroughly lost on what to do. We want to try to do this for free or hella cheap. Has anyone here encountered this issue and found a workaround or anything?

She isn't even close to be fully broken and I knew the risks going into it lol. I got back on after she threw me and we finished the session on a good note. Getting more protective gear to prevent injuries like the ones I'm currently dealing with, since I expect to be thrown again during the training process.
Got thrown out of the saddle by a horse today and got mildly fucked up. I want to invest in more protective gear than just a helmet but there's so many options. I want elbow pads and wrist guards definitely because of the bad scrapes and sprains I got. And maybe some kind of vest to protect me from any gut punches the horn of the saddle will give me if the horse tries to throw me again. My stomach has some nice big bruises from the horn.
He's always trying to see my phone. Gives off "you got any games on your phone?" energy. He splashes me when I give him water and tries to steal the end of the hose. He also demands pets as soon as I enter the barn.
She gets offended when I make her listen to me, but we're still buds. She gets excited to see me because she knows I take her outside to graze when I'm there lol
Getting therapy for the emotional damage from being unlawfully fired from a job almost two years ago. There's 3 months left in the statute of limitations. My therapist really thinks I should go after my former employer for this shit. Idk if I should. I am employed at an amazing place rn and can't really afford time off, but I also want justice for myself and anyone else who got the same treatment I did. What do y'all think?
Considering painting several murals over time. In my bedroom, my home office, and my dining room. I'm kinda okay at art and love to paint. I'm better at abstract or cartoony shit.
Just watched my sick pet duck have a seizure and die while swimming, so I'm really fucked up mentally and want to get my mind off of it.
Want to write a novel-length story and I want to post it somewhere as I write for others to see and enjoy and critique. Idk where to post it though. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
