The only reason I kept it was for Star Wars things, but that's been mean and lean of late, so there's no point. I'll just do a one month sign up if anything worthy pops up in the future

No, Australian AUD, so always the number is higher than in US, but relevantly crazy for Australia pricing, most streamers are similar pricing to be fair. It's more the jump I'm trying to justify. At this rate we'll be looking at $500+ a year by 2032. If only my salary increased at that rate 😁

It astounds me just how regularly I forget that all furniture that I can afford to buy, arrives as a flat pack. I see the assembled image and say to myself "oh yes, send me that" and then that goddamn flat box arrives. I doubt I'll ever remember. Oh well, whats one more weekend of back pain eh?!

He paints a beautiful coyote wife in the window, and two adorable coyote kids running around in the yard. He tries to enter this new coyote life, but it is inaccessible to him

Haha all good. It's a long standing joke in archaeology that people call us geologists and paleontologists. Also, most common questions asked on public digs - thinking they're the 1st to ever ask "found any aliens?" "found any gold?" One time I had found gold & said yes and they just stared at me
