Five...And a half weeks. Laid off. Oh well, on to the next one!

Week three! Lets keep this ish up 👀

Yesterday we found three more his age. Probably siblings? They don't like people, but aren't bite-y. If we can keep them from running off of the porch, we'll socialize them at least. They'll have food/love/warmth at the very least.

Minion and I think he was an "outcast" because he was probably sick and his mama kicked him out. We tried our best. Feeding him every two hours, making sure he pooped, kept him warm. He wasn't here long, but he was loved to the best of our ability.

We lost the tiny felon, and gained his siblings.

I'm at the point I don't want to come home from work. If you can't at the very least be kind, I'll stay in my camper and eat hamburger helper.

I can think of a certain Cocktail that would help during these trying times, and y'all need to learn how to make/use them when the masked kidnappers come around.

We got the outside Heat Lamp setup early this year, because of a tiny furry felon decided that this was his home now.

We still have to bottle feed him, but he's grooming himself. So that's a plus. Now he won't be cold. Currently snoozing like he's working a hard labor job.

Week two in the bag. Time for rest, and start again on Monday.

Who could ever have imagined when I played a fictional rebel who joined the Resistance to oppose a criminal Authoritarian & wannabe King, it would be happening in real-life?

One week in the bag! Rest up while they let you. Monday is right around the corner.

The last vehicle that I bought was when my daughter was born, almost 20 years ago, and I basically was never allowed to drive it. It'll be nice to get something that's truly mine for a change.

Having to use the only four seater to go to work, and leave behind three people to use a two seater is not ideal.

Here's hoping the upcoming job is long enough that I can at least put down a decent down payment on a used vehicle for myself.

Meltdown on "Truth" Social in 5... 4... 3... 2...

I guess the First Amendment doesn't mean shit.

Appreciate it! I'm doing as much reading as I can on the subject. Hopefully I can convince the fam to go all-in with me LOL

I got a plan to get everyone at home their own hand-held device. Even build a base-station to boost our signal. Right now it's just for "play" and get used to the tech.

Grandmother doesn't like the JANK of building our own meshtastic nodes. Says she wants to wait for us to have some with a "real" case. (T1000-e?)

So I gave her node to my daughter instead, and she's in love with the new-ness.

I think the worst part about having cereal in the morning, is having to wait.

Gotta get rid of that crunch.

Even though I like the jank of having a board inside a home-made case with the antenna popping out the side, I think I'm going to buy something different when funds allow. Something pre-made I can just hand family members and be like "Hold dis."

Got my meshtastic devices working. Seeing a BUNCH of nodes 2+ hops away. Nothing local but us.

Gonna try and build out MY node so I can carry it with me. That way I can map out more nodes, and learn how to use it better.

I think I've got a plan for my addition to the mesh. Going to have to put it on hold because of work and bills.

Got everything working. It looks like a good system. Even the grandparents got it figured out. Lets see how far we can get with this in our little back woods area.

Got my Meshtastic kits in the mail. All excited. Apparently, though, I didn't measure the case I was going to put them in. Whoops!

I got some new toys (Yay hyperfixation!) coming in the mail, and I can't wait to get into it. All I've been doing is reading and watching youtube videos where I Can. Let me tell you. I'm excited, and my family is tired of hearing about it LAWL

Have you ever been glued to your device, refreshing the page to see the location of a package you ordered just a few days ago? Hoping that you can catch the "Delivered: Mailbox" at the exact moment it happens?

Yeah, me either.

I need to spend more time curating my experience here. That OTHER site is just unhinged, horny, and fascist leaning. So hard to leave something you spent a decade on.

Am I divorcing a social media platform....?
