everyone: computers are the future they can do anything

me: computers are my idiot baby children and they cannot be trusted

well everyone i have caught up on the pokemon news, taken up my shield, and joined sobble defense squad

@InspectorCaracal I MEAN IT'S RANDOM EGGS YOU HATCH AND ONLY THEN DO YOU FIGURE OUT WHAT RARE CHICKEN BREEDS YOU GOT OR WHATEVS, IT'S LIKE.... THE ULTIMATE UNBOXING

IRL VERSION OF MYSTERY TOYS IN LITTLE CAPSULES

BIRD GATCHAPON. how can i not love it

(plus i mean shipping eggs less stressful to critters/eventual critters than shipping chicks, also less expensive, win-win)

@InspectorCaracal if i ever get to that point (or honestly, if my sister gets a farm, so i can be Bad Decisions Shoulder Devil), i think the better way to do it by far is to buy the eggs then hatch them

also because at this place i remember that sold many fancy rare chicken breeds, guinea fowl, etc. they offered a box of like

"we forgot to label all of these! it's a grab bag! lucky dip of random rare birds y'all!"

THAT IS EXTREMELY DELIGHTFUL TO ME

honestly i find it buckwild that you can just like. ship animals. in the mail. you can just do that with some of em?

i can get on amazon and just order a box of ladybugs or whatever! they let you do that! they actually let you do that in real life

re:Unboxing—Jessica’s Hen 

@Sapphicgiraffic@snouts.online that is very understandable, chickens are resource-intensive

the ultimate dream i think is to like

have a friendly pal nearby that has chickens

you go over, you pet the chickens, you get some nice fresh eggs because "oh my god please take some there are SO MANY", and you don't even have to deal with chicken poop! win-win

Unboxing—Jessica’s Hen 

@Sapphicgiraffic@snouts.online ............this is an example of me being like terminally cishet, i was like "hen unboxing? omg chickens?? did you do that thing where you can just like ORDER A BOX OF CHICKS is it baby peepers time????????????"

today on i really need a button for "i swear to god this is not l'appel du vide, it's me having a senior moment"

@AlphaEspy no worries, i yoinked it from the first post you did and then edited LOL

i'll deffo spend some time playing around with this, thank you!

@AlphaEspy cheers, i can probably munge this about! (if nothing else my dad, who knows german + does amateur astrophotography, will enjoy it lol)

i guess i'm looking for something that'll show me a graph of trends in barometric pressure? basically so i can go "ah shit, THAT'S why my shoulder's yelling, it's because things took a sharp downturn" lol

heyo masto folks

does anyone know of a website that lets you look up, per (US) zip code, a barometric pressure forecast and retrospective?

like maybe "here's what it is now, in the middle of the past 3 days, and predictions for next 3 days" or something?

i feel like this sort of graph display + prediction MUST be around somewhere because it's such common weather data, but i just can't google-fu it

especially not with my shoulder hurting lol

but also i may be a little strange in comparison but i genuinely find rough english just... really charming a lot of times

other people may make fun of it when it's obviously someone's second language but i just find it absolutely fucking delightful

like someone is obviously taking such great care doing *me* the service of catering to *my* language preference, and when english is such a fucking nonsense language to boot

i have all the patience in the world for that!!!

i will say though there's something that i find endlessly charming, in that asian sellers often address you as "sweetie" and so forth to indicate the vibe they're going for, even in things like customer service

and as a southerner this is delightful

a random dude calling me sweetie? BANNED. ILLEGAL. TO BE REBUFFED WITH EXTREME PREJUDICE.

a lolita fashion seller addressing me as 'sweetie' around language barrier? BEAUTIFUL. BLESSED. LOVELY.

i know the answer is very reasonably "since it's all custom it's taking awhile, here's an update" in all honesty but still

want lacey :( want frills :( where frill :(

i feel bad bothering the customer service lady because she is SO sweet
