>i hope youve enjoyed the latestation, anons. please, keep enjoying it!!
Neither of those Anons. I very much have! Some of the stuff is a little too wonky for me, but most of it I like. You even have a few of some of my favorite songs!

Don't worry, I'm alive. Sorry was dealing with some PC issues (fuck win11)

I'd kind of like the radio back too.

Because of my complete inability to just let things go. Even if it would be smarter to do so for me and also of no real consequence.

>Why aren't you sleeping tonight?
Sleep is important so I like to get it out of the way first thing in the morning.

I wake up late and unironically go right back to bed after taking care of stuff like bathing and eating.

>>3151 (OP) 
for a few months i was less the lover and more the emotional support dog of rockin robin, though i was too autistic for the emotional manipulation to work. suffice to say it ended with me giving a not so subtle suggestion that their happiness was best found six feet under. 

that aside only real love i thought i felt turned out to be outta convenience. i got my brothers, beer, yuri and late nights. alls good in the world.

What is this, a thinly-veiled deathwish? I don't need others' money either way. I have a will that goes about erasing my existence as much as possible. No funeral, no obituary, no nothing regarding my passing.

>Have you ever encountered love
I guess I have.
>real and genuine
Oh. Then no. Unless you mean my mother loved me. Probably the only one who ever truly has.

>>3182
Not my experience, my first love turned to scorn and my 2nd, and current burns brighter in different ways. I've connected with her physically better than anyone before. But I myself am still in a bit of shock from the loss of my first relationship, it lasted 6 years and felt like a divorce when it ended, it was longer than my parents own marriage. I want to give my current love what she deserves but a part of me still wants to be alone, I'm not sure I'm ready, so in the meantime I'll just treat her well and do my best to take care of myself. 
I haven't connected with her mentally like I probably should, there's still a part of me that's afraid of getting too close after the last time.

>>3202
Anon, I'm unsure if you've tried this yet so forgive me if it's redundant. But it sounds like you still love her and want to save your marriage if she's willing. Protect yourself first, prepare for having to leave before making this ultimatum to her. But once you're ready you have to, it's not healthy for you, her, or the kids to be dysfunctional for years more. 
When you're ready, if I were you, I would ask her point blank, "What is wrong, why aren't you present with me? Is it something I can help with or change? Is it something you need support with and I can help you change? Is it something I did and need to work on? Is it some combination of any of these reasons? I want to make this work and will put in the work and love you if you still love me, but I won't stick around if you don't want to walk the path of life with me anymore."
She may genuinely just need the shock of reality to jar her from whatever her haze is, and you putting the situation to words might help, or it won't, either way there will be no more uncomfortable silence. Be brave anon, and godspeed!

20 gauge is absolutely viable, with the right setup.
I think .410 handguns are a bit of a meme. I love my Circuit Judge to death though, and highly recommend it. It is made by Rossi, so there isn't the same concern about Taurus quality control. If you have 800 USD lying around, highly recommend getting one.

Maybe I should just 3D print my own firearms. It's getting to the point where our own infrastructure is sketchy.

Also, there's an unofficial firearms registry already, I don't want to make it easier for them.

>>3694
Those .410/45 Colt handguns are all rifled for legal compliance and pattern extremely poorly with most loads as a result.  Shot cups do not function correctly when spun and you end up with random pellet flinging.  The Judge etc., are universally worse patterning than any real shotgun while also not having comparable power to decent pistol rounds. Buckshot flies better from these meme guns, but Federal 4 pellet 000 buck is only flinging 210 grains at an optimistic 850 ft/s. That's giving you about 337 lbf of energy.  That's less energy than poor quality 9x19mm ball and it's less than half the energy of a spicy .357 magnum.

Lol, aptly-named.  :D

>>3668

This was on the island of Saint Croix. 

Nah, none of them were anywhere from a place like this. We're contractors, so we travel around a bit, but I doubt any of them had seen anything like that in their lives. 

At least, not all of them.

Check out water spouts

Working midnights made me forget that 10 pm is late for normal people. I fucking hate my job.

>>3747
What is your job, Anon? I worked midnights for nearly a year, and it about killed me. Had to give that up.

No one is willing to do the needful of walking away from big tech and degoogling (plus deamazoning, demicrosofting...) their lives. But all other video hosts are either terrible in UI, slow as molasses, overloaded with politislop and "freeze peach" scummy scams (looking at you, gab and minds), or in most cases all three.

Maybe it's time for the ultra-rare few who do care, to go back to pre-pootube Internet of web2 and web1, and even earlier. If you can live without your let's plays, amateur true crime documentaries, lore icebergs, vtubers and other goonerbaiters of lonely losers into "donating/superchatting/tier3subbing" to thots who hate their audience, and so on.

>>3099 (OP) 
my younger cat died around may, i got them to give my first one company, it was hard to see them go, but the first one is still there and I need to be there too.

I have to take this moment to tell everyone, please anons if you have a kitty and you notice any strange change in behavior, even if it minor, even if it's kitty becoming more grumble-some, or if you notice them walking a bit funny, PLEASE take then to the vet immediately. Because when whatever manifests, it's going to be too late and it'll happen to quick for you to do anything about it.

More passed on yitty yat photos. A tribute to my sister. She lived into her 20s in the early 2020s until a few years ago. She kept me sane at so many moments and was my best friend, miss you girl.

>>3742
Thanks for sharing these, Anon. She was a pretty kot.

>>3742
She had nice eyes.

I'm playing Morrowind again lately. This game is fabulous.

My combination of choice for hosting is this:
>12oz glass
>Add 5 or so ice cubes
>Add 1 1/2 or 2 shots of Jim Beam peach whiskey
>Fill with Arizona Arnold Palmer 1/2 and 1/2
>Stir well
It's such a smooth drink you have to be careful not to overdo it, especially if you serve out of a punch bowl or pitcher

not a drinker but recently had a sip of hot wine (no idea what wine, it was red) and quite liked it. Might experiment with heating drinks. Wish I had someone to drink with.

>not a drinker
Same, but a hot toddy or warm brandy can be very comfy in the wintertime.

bottom shelf cask tawny/port, cheaper than water, decent percentage (20% - 35%), decent amount (2+ litres)
otherwise i drink gin & vermoth at a 1:1 ratio, and a baker's dozen olives for good measure

Usually rum and coke like OP or some variation or combo like it (Whiskey, Lemonade). I usually have it along with strong cider, I can get it fairly cheap where I am, good to get drunk with.
I've not had a drink in all of November, really looking forward to my next drink tbh.
