If you're going to the shows and want to help a guy out, I got the shirt with the tour dates (there's only one of those) and left it in a car - my wife had a minor emergency so I had to rush home, and the last few minutes before the car arrived and I could get out I was only focused on that. And the driver never returned my lost item message.

So: I posted some videos here that I think are pretty cool, and I did two good deeds that night (gave an extra ticket to a stranger for free, and a teenager with a Hum shirt let me cut in the Merch line bc I'm disabled and couldn't physically stand in the line, I found out he was a drummer so I bought him one of the used drumsticks the merch table sells) so hopefully I have some positive karma in the Failure world.

If you feel like helping, I'll cover the shirt and shipping of course. Plus a little extra for being cool.

Thanks!

When I was like 14 I found all my dad's books from when he was a kid. I don't think he ever read a single one of them, but there was some rad stuff in there: hardback Vonnegut and Fitzgerald series, stuff I devoured. But there was one book I've been trying to remember for 30 years...

The novel was about a man living and/or traveling alone in the Rockies and Southwest US. I think there was a lot of Utah, and maybe some Mormon talk (but it definitely wasn't religious propaganda at all).

He hunts an animal and eats its testicles, that stuck with me. Lol.

That's really all I have. My assumption is it was published when my Dad was of age to read it, so I'm guessing, like, 1960s, but it could be decades earlier for all I know. It's not a kids' book, it's a proper novel, but the kind of thing an adventurous teen would dig, and if it were a prominent author (like London or someone) I would have remembered, I ended up an English major so, yeah.

Thanks everyone!

My hair is to my shoulders. It's natural all the way through. And that's all I want. But everywhere I go, I give the stylist explicit directions (must touch my shoulders, I want it completely natural above that) and then they chop it to chin length and then cut in layers and it takes me another effing year to get my hair back.

So to anyone that understands: I just need my long hair trimmed to look clean, and evened up in the back. Maybe cut some greys. That's the entire haircut.

People ask me all the time if I was in a band: that's how I want to look. Retired guitar player. Lol.

If you know anyone, or are the person, who can understand that I want my hair to stay long and I don't want any styling, please hit me up. I don't care if you're still in beauty school and wanna make a few bucks on a housecall even. Just someone who can work he scissors and respects my gosh darn wishes.

Thank you.

Anyone wanna share? If there's more than one, I'm looking for SF.

Like it says, need a watch repair and don't know who to...trust? Anyone have any good experiences?

Never in my life have off-the-rack clothes worked on me, and body has only gotten less compliant.

Going to a wedding in September, it's cocktail attire: so there's wiggle room enough for some flair, to let my personality show through.

I think I want a mandarin collar, if that would exempt any like, classic Italian tailors...which I'd also like to hear about, tbh.

And of course, if I pay a grand for the suit I'm gonna feel bad. So who's that leave, Indochino?

Absolute classic, some of the best of the '00s DC scene. Available on the Q and not U Bandcamp.

A few days ago an option appeared when the screen saver was up: pressing the main action button on the screensaver screen now brings up an option to switch to an AI screen saver something or other. Didn't bother with a screenshot bc if it's happening to me, it's gotta be universal.

I've spent years developing the muscle memory of "grab triangle, press OK" when the screensaver is up, and I hate all things AI, but now I keep popping into the stupid AI option.

I've looked through all the settings, googled, checked r/....can't find anyone discussing this. Can it be disabled without manipulating the device?

FWIW my Shield Pro is completely "stock," I've never fiddled with it or "sideloaded" (I don't even really know that means lol) anything. For me it's just a dumb device for watching stuff.

Yeah, I can press a different button. But there's still a thing I hate sitting there. Can this option be removed?

I've been disabled for almost 9 years, a few ups but mostly downs, and I'm finally accepting that an electric wheelchair will really enhance my life, get me out more, etc. But I don't know where to start. I've had a crappy non-electric Drive chair for about 4-5 years, but it's junk and falling apart and due to disabilities I can't wheel myself around manually. Can I get some community help?

Here's what you need to know:

- I'm 6' and 275 pounds, so I need a strong chair, but am not obese (waist on my Levi's is 38), so I don't need a wider or XL option.

- I plan on using this for long days (museums, tourism) so, big/better/more batteries are welcome

- I live in downtown SF, so there are hills. I won't try any of the extreme ones, but I live on a medium one, so if it can handle my weight and the hills I'm stoked. I do see some electric chairs climbing my hill, with varying degrees of capability. And I'm heavy. So I'm worried I might be out of luck with most hills.

- Money is...not really a problem, but nobody here is rich, so, something the common person could afford would be ideal!

Thanks everyone! I'm lost looking around, having a hard time telling junk from quality, and don't wanna make a bad decision. Love to my fellow chaired people!

So I'm spinning a record and decide to get some breakfast. Found a croissant in the kitchen - cool. I bring it to where I sit, about 10-12 feet from my deck, and eat my croissant.

Ten minutes later I get up to change the record and...there's a giant flake of croissant, like a half-inch on both sides, just sitting on the deck about a half inch from the platter.

What the effing eff.

How can I beat dust when I can't even beat...bread?? Lol. I feel as if the gods of vinyl have frowned upon me today.
