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 meant being bothered as in strangers harassing me for my beliefs lol. I live in a grossly red part of my state and I keep a low profile out of what I feel is necessity
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.
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.
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
I'll call the orcas

Omg that makes me so happy. I love my spoders. I moved into my house 2 years ago and so far, I've had 5 different spiders. One male and four females. They all die eventually, but I love watching them grow.
She was upset with me at first because she just wanted to graze. Then she got into it when she started trotting around lol
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.
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
Can I get the link too? The book looks interesting
