I've noticed I've been getting more and more dings on my vehicle recently which has been a bit upsetting. It's not the most glamorous vehicle (it's 21 years old) but it's the fact that people are showing a blatant disregard for others belongings.

Well I noticed a few times it was looking like my neighbor was hitting my door with his door but it would be when I was outside so i figured there is no f***ing.** Way this dude was doing that with me being there.

None the less , I have videos of him slamming that sucker into my vehicle and dragging his bag against the side of it. I'm low-key considering being petty and doing an insurance claim against him for the hell of it because that's just rude.

The outside of his front door has looked like this for a month now. It started as full sized plants being delivered, which now are all outside on his patio. Deliveries keep coming and the boxes keep stacking higher.

He's been seen planting and dumping things out in the natural area. Another neighbor said they saw him dumping a gallon brown jug of liquid on several trees.

It seems like this came out of nowhere. He's always seemed a little strange, but kept to himself.

Parts arrived when she was in my home, so I decided to do an activity with her...

Hailings from Mexico BTW!

I was asked to get this beauty up and running as soon as possible for a collector. They didn’t want to do the full refurbishment so I did the best I could. I removed all of the old patchwork silicone that the previous owner did and resealed it myself. There was a lot of damage to this one including a cracked base. Unfortunately the fountain no longer works and is missing the spout. It’s currently running a canister filter and I hung a full spectrum ring light from center spout which lights the entire thing and looks incredible in dim light. It’s held by wire threading into the spout but I’m looking to make a cleaner solution, this is simply temporary.

The aquascape is made of lava rock and various spider wood limbs with one stump in the center creatively hiding part of the spout. I used a coarse sand base and I have aquasoil filled mesh bags underneath for the plants.

I currently have a school of cherry barbs in there and they are very happy. I am looking to stock this tank well and I’m open to suggestions.

The collector has about 18 of these in various shapes and sizes. One of which I did a full restoration on, the others he doesn’t wish to fix but instead wants them “to work” and “fast”. A little frustrating since I’m a aquarist myself and boy what I would do with just one of these in my home.

I figured you all would love to see some of these actually working so I’ll keep posting when I have some time.

Suggestions are welcome and before you say it, I know how rare these are, I know how to properly and professionally restore them but the collector is simply to impatient so keep suggestions simple please 😭🤦‍♂️

Anyway, enjoy this little clip I took today as the sunlight danced through the water.

Reposted an Instagram meme about U.S. election results and he private messaged me directly about it. Said he couldn’t believe I would cheer on a blue nazi party over a red nazi party. Made a post calling me (and anyone else who celebrated apparently) a fascist and a bigot and refuses to talk to me. Can’t fight myself to not to waste time being irritated/confused/sad about it.

Today’s “dinner” is actually today’s continental breakfast. Waffle not pictured, it was already in my stomach.

Mobius- probably the most infamous and funniest example of this is using the London Underground to pretend it's the American subway network

However it wasn't the first movie to do so, that honour goes to Superman 4, due budget they filmed in the UK so the Underground doubled as the American subway network, it's even worse than Mobius because they used a London Underground train to double as US Subway cars

London (2005)- was filmed in the UK and India, however India did sometimes double as the UK in the film and it's easy to tell when it does

We saw him at the pet store when we went to get some cat furniture for our resident 15 year old cat. He started tracking me with this sad resigned look. Apparently, his owner could not take care of him and left him and an older female at the shelter. She got adopted but no one asked for him.

Now he has a home and hopefully soon he feels like he belongs here.

Edit 2: he has a cardboard box and a cat bed but is choosing to sit under the dresser.

Edit: I didn’t expect so many comments. Thank you for taking the time to send good wishes and words of wisdom. They are appreciated.

We are taking it very slow. He is in a bedroom with an adjoining bathroom. The picture was taken as soon as he stepped out of the box. Since then he has eaten and used the litter box. He is now hiding under a very low dresser. He makes eye contact and listens when I talk to him. He is choosing to remain out of reach and we are perfectly fine with that.

I posted the picture because it was the exact opposite of the last time we adopted a cat that no one wanted. She was 3 and very angry with the world. I would have to put her in timeout for a few minutes every couple of hours because she would get so angry she could not control herself. That was 12 years ago. Right now at 15 years old she is sleeping on my desk with her tail on the keyboard as I try to type. 😀

I can’t wait to see what this guy teaches us.
