What's New....?

I didn’t have such wild differences in temperature, but it did snow a few days ago for me too, blanketed the neighbourhood.

Was around 4 degrees one day, then -6 for March 27th-28th, now we’re back up to 3° and its raining.
I’ve had enough. Its nearly April. Please, no more.

I was walking around in a tshirt outside just a few days ago. Feeling the nice warm sun. Now I’ll wrap myself up in a lot of cloth again. Hopefully we will be back to Warmer weather next week.

Sakura season is in full swing in Tokyo, but damn I wish the bloody weather was more spring-like. Was hoping to actually enjoy a proper hanami again after a two year abstinence…

Some while a go a dear tiger friend of mine introduced me to Persona and therefore, to Teddie.

This compilation now makes me understand how unbearable I used to be when making bear puns at every single chance. But still beary fond of those unbearliveable bearsome days. :B

@UrsamRableckBearmon Get into Persona, become a fan Ursam. One of us! One of us! One of us!

Anyway, I finally managed to catch the stray cat that has been visiting my house for months now and got it to the vet. Doesn’t have a microchip, and isn’t neutered. I put a collar on him before I let him go afterwards. As far as I know, noone on my own street owns him at least. Will need to look a bit further to see if I can find an owner. But if not, I think I may adopt him.

Security around my home would put Fort Knox to shame, after the break in we’ve set up:

  • Central alarm system, triggered by any door or window that is open or broken after security is enabled
  • Front and rear cameras, can be accessed by mobile and have speakers
  • Indoor cameras, same features as above
  • 30 second window before police are automatically contacted, and told where exactly the criminals have gotten into the house with real time footage
  • The security company will dispatch one of their own guys to our property, who will get there before police. If we are away somewhere, they will watch our house for up to 2 weeks
  • Fucking batman smoke bombs on each floor:

So, asking for a friend, what security company is that?

Verisure, I’m pretty sure they operate internationally, Europe at the very least

Not to “scare” you, but I recognized the name… because they very recently (just a few days ago) got into trouble in Sweden due to news coming out that their employees were sharing nude images (caught by the security cams) of their customers.

That is quite disturbing. None of our cameras are in the bedrooms or bathrooms but even still, I’ll certainly be cautious so thanks for bringing this up

I get back from school and open the fridge to find… the face of the enemy.

One of my roommates is responsible… :chicken: :hocho:


Really though, I looked up the program advertised and it seems okay enough. Giving their surplus foods to charities for those in need of it.

We saw Fire Shut Up in My Bones this evening. It was our last opera of the season and it was so strange. Very modern, lots of non opera mixed into it. It was also way too long, but the story is so riveting and dark that it has you on the edge of your seat all through act 1 and act 3. I slept through act 2 so I can’t comment on it except to say it should have been cut out bc I missed it and still fully understand the story anyway. 3 hours with only one 1 intermission :grimacing:. I really don’t have words. I think I loved it and hated it all in one.

Side note: Two or the main performers came down with Covid yesterday and so they were out. A girl who played a small part stepped up big and a local girl filled in for her original part and the guy who filled in last second for the male lead tenor was in New York rehearsing for a totally different show just 15 hours before tonight’s performance. He did great. I would have loved to be able to hear that phone conversation!! He had played the part over a year ago elsewhere. “Hey do you remember the part? Kinda why? Our dude has Covid can you fill in? When? Tomorrow night, we booked you a flight, it leaves in an hour :joy:

How are you holding up @Count.Rushmore ? Hearing left and right Odessa was attacked :frowning:

Hey everyone, so I got really busy the last few weeks. Enough to loose the regular status.

I was able to catch some of what happened on the forum and about the game (happy to know that countrushmore is relatively fine).

Through the “what did you miss” forum mail I saw the april’s fool “roadmap” by Hichkas . Via IOI twitter, saw that a featured contract was released. Just saw the picture, so I’m going to assume it involves the twin/backup of the musicians in Mendoza.

Outside of that, is there anything important that should be known ?
Arcade, freelancer, IOI insider, posts by Travis or Clemens ?

The Berlin Egg Hunt is coming back today, and updates of some sort will be coming at an undefined time in the semi-near-distant future. Aside from that, bupkis.

Nothing new about it. :sweat_smile: But yeah, I have 7 babies (in French). :+1:
They are self-published and poorly sold, so it’s not a big deal. :partying_face:
