And what's even more ironic is that it takes LOTS of money. I've tried throwing money at politicians and other organizations but that's also like pissing into the sea. You have to have SERIOUS money before you can even get into the room, much less have people pay attention to what you say.

You're not some grand warrior for justice, you're just a random person venting his frustrations on the internet. There's some value in that, call it catharsis if you like but it's not 'work' nor has it any meaning outside of it.

Ow, browser tabs is one of the few things I'm OCD about lol Having to re-navigate to websites potentially a few times is definitely a drawback to that though.
Mr. Otaku Posted November 20, 2020 Posted November 20, 2020 So i just burned my dinner... That pisses me off SO MUCH! FUCK!! Now i gotta make do with cup noodles. It doesn't happen often but it sucks when you put effort into something only to make bullshit mistakes and fuck the whole thing up at the end. Moral of the story, always keep an eye on the stove when your food is on it.

"Why must dust and dirt exist?" i often say out loud when cleaning the house. Annoying shit. Fuck i just realized that i sound like a housewife... Great...
KoolHndLuke Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Obvious whores that double down on the safe opinion quick panning for approval and likes and showing no originality, taste, or even much thought. I would pity you poor fools except for the fact that you happily trash other ppl's lives for a few lousy points in a game where your turn is right around the corner.
Guest Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Getting a discord advertised for your hobby, joining it super enthusiastic, and realizing the clique there is already set and isn't about to include any extra, or they don't like you, or they just ignore your attempts at socializing. Leaves you ruminating about yourself, if you said something wrong, or if you're just downright boring/uninteresting

But, if you resign yourself to just do your own thing and try not to give a fuck what anybody thinks, you might be a little happier and people will notice.

Ernest Lemmingway Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Lame stream media and hypocritical politicians all screaming we need to lock everything down again "for six weeks" (like two weeks, which turned into nine months?) while they don't follow their own rules. The upside is a lot of people--including law enforcement and state attorney generals--are defying these insane restrictions and are no longer afraid. I'm still unhappy with people who don't observe the precautions (less the masks, more everything else) but the CDC, Fauci, and others are ignoring the realities of mental health and economics. So people get sick with a disease with a disease with a >99% survival rate; better that folks get sick for a little while than our economy collapses, suicides go through the roof, and we shred our civil liberties for the illusion of safety.

Kendo 2 Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 A great horned owl has decided that my hay barn is the perfect place to roost. The mess they make (runny bird shit any seagull would ne proud of and the waxy owl pellets they barf up) outweighs any rat/mouse catching they do. It's one owl so there's no mate BUT I don't want another one showing up; this is the time of year they pair off and they stay together for life. Anyway, making an owl leave is a pain in the ass and I'm NOT going to kill it...so that means bird repellent on every beam in the barn. So much for fishing tomorrow.

Is there some way to make a more appropriate location on your property as well? Perhaps more towards the edge of your primary property (before woods etc) Then perhaps it will move to that location instead once you use the repellent. ? Then you can help keep the mice under control naturally. I believe you allow feral cats (fixed) to be there as well to control it (if I remember correctly you stated that in the past) This will be another aid if move. Otherwise it might move further away and not be so much of a benefit. I don't have many owls around where I live so I don't know much about it. Pigeons for christ sake is my problem. Many use https://www.homedepot.com/p/Bird-B-Gone-Enviro-Spike-10-ft-x-5-in-Stainless-Steel-Bird-Spikes-100516567/204626790 or similar product. Not sure if the above would be useful for you as well as repellent. Might last longer than the repellent. Then again depending on the size of the bird.. it might just rip it off ... some OWLs can be quite big. Not pigeon size It took years to get rid of our pigeon issue on my mother's home. (Turn of century with dormers and such.) Lots of roosting places that pigeons love. They still try to nest.. in the gutters and such. Which of course block and clog them. Our gutters run into dedicated drains that go to the extra large catch basin. No water run off here. Apparently that is what was done back then. Kind of cool but... complete shit if birds nest and crap clog it. Update: I just checked out the bird... https://owlcation.com/stem/The-Great-Horned-Owl Shit... you really need to get it out of your barn for more than just ... well its shit... That is one nasty bird if provoked.
Kendo 2 Posted November 22, 2020 Posted November 22, 2020 I stopped using poisons when I started finding dead dead varmints; coons, skunks, occasionally coyotes. My guess is the rats and mice were getting poisoned, wandering off to find water before they died and the varmints ate them. Cats are better anyway. They only go after what's around the barn. When I first bought my place the original wooden barn was still standing (sorta) and turkey vultures had set up shop. The whole interior was rotten and covered in years of vulture shit. I built a small fire out of cut railroad ties and the creosote smoke drove them out. The next day I used a front end loader and tore the barn down. I replaced it with a pole barn on a concrete slab and this FUCKING owl is the first predator bird in probably 15 years to roost there. My neighbors shoot every crow they see so that's probably why the owl moved in; no crows to harass it now.

I know some don't like them but I have relatives that live in the country have a farm and don't ever remember them killing all crows.. If I am not mistaken, they only rarely kill something .. and only if it becomes a major nuisance. I remember once at my grandmothers when I was young my Uncle taking a .. cotton mouth across the field to release it after it was found near the house. Like you , they fixed the problem. Some washout occurred under the concrete and it liked to get under it and warm itself on the concrete. Yea, If I am not mistaken that Horned Owl can take off with your feral cats if he hangs around. Not to mention if I am correct, they are very territorial and it is dangerous to mess around near their nest. Yea, something like that needs to move elsewhere. Good luck getting him/her to move.

All coyotes are 'red wolves', all bobcats eat calves, crows carry bird flu, etc. BUT the dumbasses will still shoot feral hogs and leave the carcass wherever it drops. Feral hogs carry a passive form of rabies that won't kill them, just anything they attack or anything that eats them. So they shoot a rabid hog and then the varmints eat it...and they get rabies. I'm not certain but the rabid coon that showed up at my place a few months ago caught it from somewhere. The kids where I live run coon dogs every weekend and they haven't reported any rabid coons to the game warden.
