I'm annoyed the tomatoes went from growing good to growing Very Sad
This is on me, and it is my first time planting and I mostly went "eeehhhh I think this is good"
I did my goal, which was get from seed to red tomato.
But now there's fungal infections, end rot, armyworm moths, splitting skin, and general sadness.
I did get enough to make salsa though.
I feel our ancestors spirits because I'm sure they felt the same way about farming.
Driving an automatic truck. My car is a manual fiat 500, and I've been driving it for a while now and getting used to that. Driving a Nissan titan afterwards feels A) weird, B) wrong C) it's too big D) where's the shifter.
I hate it, but because hubs has a truck whenever I drive not my car it's a nightmare that requires adjustment.
You and me both brother, you and me both. Fuck Spain, fuck Cortes, fuck Pizarro, and fuck the catholic church. So much history, so much writing lost to these bastards
It really does break my heart knowing so many codices were destroyed. The ones that survived are the neatest comic books ever made and it's such a tragedy so much art was burned.
HBO never finished Carnivale.
That's not weird. I mean the show is weird as fuck, but your thought isn't.
Doctor Who losing Ncuti Gatwa and facing an uncertain production future.
