We need you to hang around here more often! 😆

We can rebuild him. We have the technology. We can make him better than he was. Better, stronger, faster

It was that moment strange feelings began swelling within Mr. Owl…

“You were warned, Mr Owl… Actions have consequences…”

I love that frog tape. I have to help my friend hang a tv this weekend and was all excited to use my frog tape to mark the wall.

As a daily niche subject poster, yes, please participate, even if it’s just something simple. It makes me feel like I’m not just talking to an empty room. Upvotes are fine, but I post to try to get you guys enthused and taking interest in the subject matter.

Much better than that banana taped to the wall.

Hopefully this owl doesn’t end up like that banana… 😮

Oh, that is a good one! 🤣

And I appreciate you reading them! 🦉❤️

I need to use my Subscribed feed more. I’ve been doing All - Top 6 Hour since I’m pretty active, but lately I feel I’m missing a decent bit of what I want to see.

I’d be glad to see it!

Also thinking about it more, it would be cool to see more people write posts on how to get into hobbies, cool beginner projects that are maybe below the poster’s skill level but would make good first projects for people, or instructable type posts. Things anyone could do with little to no experience.

I really like how the origami community was doing theme weeks where we could share different animals we attempted.

Mostly just the ratio of news/politics to fun/hobby posts. It’s stuff I could already find on any other news platform or social media, and there’s seldom discourse about the topics. It’s often just negativity or some type of leftist gatekeeping. I’d rather just go to the AP news page and read it there.

I like seeing everyone’s art, woodworking, 3D prints, origami, nature photos, and all that other good stuff way more. I like learning about you guys and your interests and I think having a small platform allows that, but many of us either forgot how to share things online or are too you to have ever been a part of mailing lists or IRC and the like.

That’s in a tiny font. Don’t pick on me. 😁

I post daily and have a fairly steady amount of up votes and comments. This time of year interaction dies down pretty noticeably. I used to think it was me and I was doing something wrong, but people are just doing spring stuff and not on here as much. They’ll be back. There’s a couple periods a year where it happens. It’s just more noticeable here since we have less people.

Recently married, I try to wear it as often as possible, but realistically it’s about 2/3 the time.

Was married before and had a cheap $20 tungsten one from Amazon. It’s supposed to not irritate skin, but it flared up my mild eczema, so I wasn’t really wanting anything this time around.

I didn’t want anything this time around, but she wanted to get me something since I got her a nice ring set.

Her rings are platinum with blue/green sapphires as the main stones, with some tiny diamonds mostly from her grandmother’s wedding ring. I liked the blueish sapphires, but platinum was way too expensive since I wasn’t sure I could wear it.

I went with titanium this time, as the color seemed closer to platinum and was much cheaper and supposedly better for skin conditions with 3 small inlaid bluish sapphires, coincidentally similar to her father’s ring. She lost both her parents recently before our wedding, so having so many family connections with the rings meant a lot to her.

I think it looks pretty sharp, which is good because this was more than $20 though not outrageous, it was tapping the upper end of what I’d have wanted her to spend on it. So far no skin irritation.

I wear it out and at my regular job. At home is 50/50 since I don’t wear it doing a lot of cleaning chores since I don’t want to trap chemicals or moisture under it and I usually have it off cooking since I wash things as I go. Sometimes I forget to put it on after that, but we have ring keepers in the kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom, so there’s always a set place to stash it where we take them off.

I also won’t be wearing it at the animal clinic. Don’t need to both them with shiny objects or have someone’s toes get caught in it, plus there’s some tough disinfectants and of course random poo and other things I don’t want in the books and crannies.

When you got it, flaunt it…
