I had a great followup pun for a moment but I forgot in the time it took me to hit "reply"



I can't even come up with a substitute pun

A substitutu

Oh forget it

I use ammonia if they need to be dispensed with instantly, and then boric acid around whatever hole they seem to be coming out of, or just sprinkled around the baseboard. Plus the traps. The boric acid sprinkling seems to work best though!

Edited to add- I feel bad using these brutish methods, but we really can't co-exist.
Thanks for this!

I use bait stations (and have to pile things in front of them so the cat doesn't sample them) but a guy I spoke to in pest control said boric acid was the way to go. If you add jelly it will attract them.
Thanks for this!

Somebody unfollowed my blog. Nothing strange, right?
But she also removed all her likes and deleted all her comments.
Just curious... Why? I didn't offend her.
I can't ask because we don't know each other.

If it's important, she's my T's friend

Could she have deleted her account? That'd explain the thing with the likes / deletes

I think that trying to understand the motives of someone else is a futile exercise. I'm sorry that happened though, capt. I know I'd feel pretty low if that happened to me.

Hello who I assume to be my European couchies. Hope you're all doing well this morning.

H and I have a doctors appointment today. My doctor said that they want to test both my hormone levels and his sperm health. I hope it goes well. I hope H is okay. If both he and I have fertility issues, I'll probably stop treatments right now and focus on adoption instead.

Cool, a friend knows a lawyer who might be able to do my will pro bono or sliding scale. My friend is also willing to be my executor. I'm not 30 yet but since I was a teenager witnessing numerous instances of family of origin DRAMA due to no wills, no advanced medical directives with regard to terminal illness etc...I want to make sure my wishes are respected should I die suddenly.

Special day... maintenance has grudgingly agreed to change my lightbulbs. About 2/3s of them have been burnt out since October but I can't do anything about it because I have 12' ceilings. Maintenance is apparently not permitted to do this, they say buy a ladder, but it'd have to be a full sized ladder for me to reach and where the eff am I going to store a full sized ladder in my one bedroom apartment just for changing lightbulbs????

No idea what other tenants do.

But they're changing mine today. They said to call before 7am so the landlord doesn't find out. I'm having the guy change all of them to those 10 year LED ones so that I never have this conflict again. Yeah, I just spent $35 on lightbulbs

Maybe for whatever reason she thought it unethical as a friend of your T's?

No, but according to law, if I die without a will, or a spouse, stuff goes to them and my siblings. And other stuff on if I've no more living siblings etc but I loathe my entire extended family too.

I want stuff to go to my chosen family. The thought of my siblings (except my younger brother) or parents or relatives getting my little assets is disgusting to me.
Thanks for this!

Hugs, okay. Sounds like a reasonable thing to do then - I'm sorry you had to experience so much drama

Lately I'm remembering all the drama when relatives died without wills, entered vegetative states without medical directives as well.

Have wanted to put my affairs in order since a teenager witnessing all that drama.

Somehow lately I'm feeling particularly bitter with the parental units. The best revenge is living well, but if I meet an accident, oh I so KNOW they won't respect my wishes so I better have things done legally.

It would take a 7 foot tall boyfriend on a 5 foot tall table (maybe a chair on top of a table?) to reach these lightbulbs

I've had my tallest friends try and none of them could do it!

Ohh hmm, metric... a 213cm boyfriend, 152cm table

They make a toxic liquid. Google it idk the name. It's brown and sticky. The ants love it and carry it back to their nest. They all gorge on it and die
