Boop!

Came to the #Fediverse in Nov ‘22. All posts are not my own as I don’t have a thread of creativity…

I’m politically left of center, support our #BlackLivesMatter, #Antifascist and #LGBTQ+ communities. Be kind, considerate and loving.

I post and boost #Politics, #Humor, #Chickens, #Gardening and whatever I feel like, and not necessarily in that order. I’m not afraid to drop a #Pun. I curse sometimes, fair warning. Alt text on all images.

Well, this person had been using one for heat in her living room. I broke down the ramifications of doing so, and BAP I was mansplaing. I’d tried to frame it as helpful advice and genuine concern from a professional (former), but I suppose I failed.

Part of HVAC is Heating and Ventilation. I took my job seriously, as people’s health and safety was in my hands, literally. I guess some folks just believe that since they’ve been doing it for years and they were still healthy, that I am just wrong and should shut up. I did and walked away from the person saddened. When they become ill, they probably won’t even connect the dots. There are so many things that cause cancer these days, so…

I would not suggest lying on the floor in your current condition, at all! 😂 Save that for when you’re recovered.

@PixysJourney @CasualPiDay
I can imagine you both splayed out on the floor cooling off after a long walk! Haha!

I’ve never been a fan of infloor heating/cooling. Heating is ok, but cold floors, not so much. I do like the idea for garages though. Don’t get me started on HVAC, I used to do that for a living in my younger years and I got accused of mansplaining once for expressing concern for someone’s safety for using a kerosene heater inside their home. 😫

@bruce

My brain was so confused by this, really! I did it though and now Amazing Grave will never be the same and that’s… awesome!

@essjax I have yet to do this, but it ain’t over yet!

@luv4music1231 It would appear not. 😂

Give your mom a hug from all of us!

@floreana That “can” actually work, if you don’t mind bending up your pages a bit, which I do not like to do, but hey it can work, sorta! 😁

2025-06-18

@MAJ1 @weirdfolks That’s a mighty fine bit of cake, though I’ve never seen the like before!

Hope you two have a fine evening, mate! 😁🤙

@MAJ1 @weirdfolks @CazimodoCreative So far so good, my friend!

I think I’ll save that adventure for this winter, and yeah I’d read them in publication order as well. It seems the natural way.

@Aileen22 @LDJ It’s good and a little scary that we’re all coming together like this! 😂

Now sing Amazing Grace to the tune of Gilligan's Island.

@bruce Oh, hell! I couldn’t do it, but now… yikes! 😳

@CatsWhoCode Indeed! At least you didn’t walk over to the television before you realized your error. 😂

@CasualPiDay
The cold gets to me as well. Auntie PJ is the opposite, always hot. I can appreciate the desire for a nice warm rock, because the house is always cold!

I’m not certain how many time zones @PixysJourney and I are apart, but it’s nigh on 7 hours. I’m on EST in the US, so… whatever that is. ☺️

@jlperuyero I have to be careful of my reading habit. I get engrossed and have been late for things way too many times. I wouldn’t trust myself with a thickness x font size calculation. I could be late for my own birth!

@UnclePJ that's so amazing. I had done something similar with my phone recently; I was watching TV on it, and then reached for the remote and realized there was no "remote" even close by.

2025-06-18

@CatsWhoCode Oh! Hahahaha! Good going mate!

2025-06-18

@CasualPiDay @PixysJourney In our defense, it wasn’t “technically” off subject. There was reference to furriness levels in the original toot!

It’s been humid here as well. Warmed up and then rained and it’s a bit drizzly out here today as well. I don’t know that we’ve received as much rain this year as you two, but we’ve our fair share. 💦 💦 everywhere!

@felis_catus_domesticus My book collection is quite small, considering those of others. Maybe under 100 physical books and countless ebooks and audio titles. The latter two are certainly less maintenance intensive.
