Mine is there strictly to cover the fraction of a second it takes my solar to take over in the event of a mains flicker or loss... and it's saved me from that dozens of times.

    Not speaking on the community, or topic, or ethics or any thing other than the emblem, so take this commentary in the spirit it is intended...

    Don't be surprised if you have a non-zero number of people looking to capture the Avatar to restore their honor.

    It's a common practice in BFE, and BFE adjacent places to put lost hubcaps, wheels, tires, hats, etc on tree branches or fence posts in the thought that if someone comes looking for it, they can easily spot if and retrieve it. Seldom does it ever get retrieved.

    I think I'm finally old enough, and mature enough, to admit that aquariums aren't for me... I love them, love the ambiance, the esthetic....everything about them but the fucking maintenance...

    Morning Kiddo (fedinsfw.app)
     

    Morning kiddo,

    Thanks for thinking of me today, even though we can't be together. I understand life is tough, and schedules conflict, but I need you to know how proud of you I am. Even though times are hard, and the world is scary, your perseverance knows no bounds, and I'm so proud of you for that. You have found your joy, and even though the world constantly tries to snuff that joy, you keep smiling (at least you'd better be 😜). You always lit up the room when you'd come in to see me and I'll be forever grateful for the joy you've given me, watching you grow into the fine human being you've become.

    I won't take up any more of your time; I know you're busy today with your own stuff. Just know that for every time you think of me, I've thought of you more. Even on the days the world is too crazy and it's all too much, I believe in you and I know you'll do great things.

    Thanks for letting me be your Dad...even if only for a minute.
