So, I lost my job in 2025 and took a year off from work. I’d gotten kicked out of the employee payroll system, which is how I got my W-2s. I’d signed up for electronic documents only, so I wasn’t able to get my 2025 W-2, and they never mailed it to me.

Instead of reaching out to my former employer, I just…didn’t file.

Basically, how fucked am I? How do I resolve this? I still don’t have the W-2. I see you can reach out to the IRS if you don’t get your W-2 from your employer, but it’s a little late for that, and I don’t want to tip them off that I didn’t file taxes. Help?

My nephew is really into Needohs right now and asked for them for his birthday. I’m overwhelmed trying to find them, looking at resellers, trying to figure out if they’re fake or not…

Can someone point me in the right direction to find legit ones, ideally not for $40 a piece. What stores tend to carry them? I know they sell out quickly. Thank you!

Once again Radio Margaritaville has a version of a song I can’t find anywhere else.

It’s an updated live version of Morris’ Nightmare, it has the lyrics:

“Now up in the city everybody’s on their cell
Not much else to do when it feels like winter fell
Ice skate
Or maybe hibernate”

“We’re checking in on Morris, got a new trophy wife
[can’t remember these]
Has she seen the surgeon’s knife?”

Anyone know where to find this one?

EDIT: Found it - played during most shows in the 2013 tour. Austin, TX 5/3/13 version is great.
I miss Jimmy.

Over a decade ago, I liked to scrapbook. I never completed a single book, but I enjoyed it, until I didn’t have time or a printer anymore. My bin of scrapbooking supplies followed me from move to move, never being touched, stored in the basement and spare bedroom. I was so sure I’d come back to it someday, and then I’d have all the supplies ready to go!

Today I finally realized that if they’ve been sitting untouched for 10+ years, it’s time for them to go to someone who will use them now. I gave them away on Facebook.

I also started getting rid of my gardening supplies. Several years ago, I started gardening as a way to save money on produce. It turns out that growing vegetables is harder than it sounds, and the past couple of years, I didn’t even bother. My planters sat overgrown with weeds.

Again, I was sure that this would be the year I’d get back to it…or maybe next year….and then I realized something. I never got back into it because I hate gardening. I have no desire to stand in the summer sun watering and weeding and fertilizing and battling pests.

So my planters and all my gardening supplies will be on the curb soon, too.

Neither of these things made much of a dent in unfucking my overall habitat, but it’s nice to finally admit to myself that I don’t enjoy the same things I used to, I guess.

I started working as a window clerk (on my own, post training) 2 weeks ago and I feel like I just keep fucking things up. Random stuff. I know it’s early on and it’s a new job, but I keep beating myself up.

My coworkers aren’t that helpful and they get irritated when I ask questions. Sometimes I’m totally alone while they’re on break if our postmaster isn’t there and I have to struggle through and try to figure out how to do things on my own. I feel like I’m going to get fired.

I want to go back to training where it was safe. It’s not even a hard job, I don’t know why I’m so bad at it.

We are working on replacing the front drivers side CV axle.

Old axle was removed with difficulty. When we went to put the new axle in, the clip got stuck and the axle isn’t in all the way and refuses to come out to readjust. Help please. Tried a slide hammer with CV axle removal attachment.

I love him but he’s a lazy boy. We do R+ and some days he’s really great and forward but most days he’s much more whoa than go. He often finds tricks to get out of work.

I think his new one is pretending to pre-spook. Like he’ll stop and raise his head and perk his ears as though something has alarmed him. When he does that, I always let him stop and look for several seconds so he can decide it’s okay. To avoid an actual spook.

I can’t say for sure that he doesn’t see or hear or smell something of course, but suspiciously, once we’re done work and cooling down he never does it even if he was doing it minutes before.

Thoughts? Is he fucking with me?

Why can’t I just clean my house? It’s not that hard but it’s somehow impossible. I’m so frustrated. I’ve tried all the tips and I want to give up.
