I finally saw a Baltimore Oriole (bird) in real life at my feeder. Its was beautiful and vibrant and now I need to find another cool bird to look at.
have you already seen a scarlet tanager or rose breasted grosbeak?

Grosbeak yes, Tanager no. But it is on the list.

Wenonah Itasca canoe in Kevlar, a canoe that you can transport your life and another person and their life at a blazing clip and the boat barely weighs over 50 pounds for bring 19.5 feet.
I have the hull in a heavier layup so I am happy but I dream of having the kevlar ultralight version.

For me with gaming (both playing and dev), a Steam Deck. Never wanted anything more in my life, seeing people have them and barely use them hurts. But I'm on long-term sick leave and live paycheck to paycheck, not able to save anything and it doesn't look like that'll change anytime soon.
And it's more than just wanting a cool thing, all I have is a shitty laptop from 2010 that barely plays 1080p video, and a TV I found outside that gets so warm that it's hard to sit in front of for longer than two hours at a time. The laptop has no battery so it has to be used with the charger connected all the time and it's too heavy to comfortably use anywhere but at a desk. I also have back and knee problems and having something like a Steam Deck would allow me to play and develop in bed or on my sofa and save me some pain.wrote last edited by [email protected]Oh man that sucks
Can I ask you how old are you and why are you on sick leave? Your family can't help you?

Exchange diary, please don't make me explain
Fine, it's a thing underground idols and idol otaku do sometimes. It's a journal that is written in by the idol, then passed to the otaku when she sees him at the next show. He then writes in it and that the next show he attends he gives it back to her, and so on.
That sounds very nice.

As an old and broken skateboarder, I would love nothing more than a pump track within driving distance.
There are some great parks, but nothing with enough flow that I can just carve around to work up a sweat without have to push or climb a ramp to drop in all the time.
I have a backyard that i don't use and i often think about how hard it could be to build one. The more i think about it, the more i realise that the answer is: very.

Were you diagnosed with something at that time?
Oh I've been suffering suicidal ideation and depression since like age 7. 2015 is just when the Trump catastrophe made landfall.

Have you tried killing time with some hobbies?
Yeah, but hobbies cost money and SSDI is barely enough to scrape on by.

Age 7, that's very early. My son is 6 and a half. I'd be heartbroken if I found out he had those kinds of thoughts.
I'm sorry you have had to and are still going through that. I really hope the best for you. The world really isn't offering much positivity right now for people suffering from depression and such illnesses, and it hasn't been for some time.
Love you. Take care.
