I saw this is Boston just last week, my first view of it was the second picture. I mentioned to my partner that it looked like a sex act. I’m so glad I’m not the only one who sees that.

I am not a doctor and if it does get worse you should talk to one.
That said, I usually get a rash a day or two after a Covid vaccination. It’s happened almost every time I get one. I’ve had welts on my forehead and up and down my legs. I have asked my doctor about it because I was very concerned at first. He said as long as it doesn’t happen within 4 hours and I do not have any breathing issues, it’s not a problem. I do have very sensitive skin and break out into hives with a lot of things like fragrances and certain fabrics.
- Comment on Is anyone NOT steaming their Music? 2 weeks ago:
I don’t stream very often, when I do I use Apple Music because I have the discounted package subscription. Even then, I typically only stream specific punk playlists. Otherwise, I listen to the MP3s I ripped from my CDs or downloaded 20 years ago.
I also usually listen to the radio in the car. A local station plays a lot of the stuff I like (Green Day, Social Distortion, Ramones etc) and mixes in new stuff. Plus, I live so close to the southern US border, sometimes they throw in some local Mexican rock band.
- Comment on Is Star Trek Discovery that bad? 3 weeks ago:
It’s not my favorite Trek, but I do like Discovery. That said, your summary is 100% accurate and emphasizes my least favorite parts of the show.

Hover flies are pretty cool to watch. I get them a lot on the flowers of my luffa.

Freeze your excess lemon juice!
My friend brings over fresh lemons from her lemon tree pretty often and they are always delicious. Recently, I juiced and froze a bunch that I knew I couldn’t get through before a 10 day vacation. Now, I have lemon juice cubes that taste just as good as fresh. They also melt quicker than regular ice, so they can be used in cocktails too.
- Comment on what are in you're top 3 favourite games of all time? 2 months ago:
Star Wars Pod Racer Halo Reach Word of Warcraft
Pod racer was the first game I was better than my younger sibling and when I bought my very first CD (Green Day). I spent hours playing that game with my CD on repeat.
Halo Reach was the first Halo game I was really into and first console modern game played. I spent so many hours playing online and IRL with friends.
World of Warcraft is the game I’ve played the longest. I’ve been playing since a few months after launch. Even though I initially thought it was “too cartoony”, it has kept me entertained for decades. Some of my favorite books are from Warcraft lore. I’ve played countless hours with friends, but now I play solo more than anything. I chase achievements, transmogs, and pets.
- Comment on How ‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Used a Murder Mystery to Pay Homage to Shatner, Roddenberry and the Original Series: ‘We Didn’t Have Any Adult Supervision’ 2 months ago:
I loved this episode and I really loved how different Anton Mount’s character was in the holideck.
- Comment on Phonecall campaign to tell MasterCard & Visa to stop censoring adult content 2 months ago:
That makes sense. I wish we had that here, but I’m happy they at least are required by law in my state to tell people about the surcharge.
- Comment on Phonecall campaign to tell MasterCard & Visa to stop censoring adult content 2 months ago:
Recently, I’ve actually found the opposite to be true in the US. Smaller places prefer cash because they can avoid the CC fees that they get charged for every single swipe. Many places have a sign at the register that they add an additional ~3% to the bill to cover fees which it can be avoided by paying in cash. I’ve started using cash over the last year to avoid the additional charges, especially for takeout.
- Comment on What movies have you watched this week? 4 months ago:
American Fiction (2023)
I have wanted to watch it for a while, so I was happy to see the Blu-ray available at my local library. I really enjoyed it, it was a great critique on the publishing industry and how the major ones treat African-American authors. I laughed so many times, good full belly laughs too.
