My Wife’s Father. I don’t care for him even if he has changed following a letter she wrote to him saying she’d be out of his life if he didn’t. In the past he beat her Mom and put my Wife through constant guilt trips. He honestly has changed a lot since the letter and he does very well with his grand daughter, but I just wanted to be home with my wife and daughter after working 70 hours out of state on a retrofit job. My Wife’s mother and step father will be visiting new years weekend. I just want it to be my family, but my Wife needs the help watching our daughter while I’m gone for work, so I just put up with it like any decent human would.

Skank For Christmas - Reel Big Fish. Their Happy Skalidays album is great. I make it a yearly thing.

When I shop on Amazon and see the obvious China companies that sell the same product but have the strangest names. Definitely avoid those products. If I see a.company only ships via fedex, I avoid doing business with that company. Dang, I know I have more just can’t think of them right now with morning brain.

Edit: I avoid many major brands too. I belive them to be selling because of the name alone rather than having a quality product anymore. Dr Scholls is one of those,

Especially with Microsoft Teams. Teams is such a powerful application for businesses. It’s a pain in the ass to use on my work iPhone. ID love to have MS Phone again. They were well built and I never had any software or battery issues.

Home Rennovision on YT always seems to have good videos. I’m dumb with home stuff, but Jeff seems to dumb ot down enough and sct professional enough that, I believe his methods and practices are good and valid.

My employer gives a $75 voucher for boots per year. Would be great if I could find a solution to make them last that long. I should probably invest in an anti-static mat I can put at my US general box since it’s my desk/standing desk lol.

I’m ready to go to a foot dr whenever I can find the time. I work 10 hr days (sometimes 12-14 hrs when I’m on the road for work). Most if not all on concrete. I’ve tried Keen boots, Sketches, Timberland Pros, etc. Different insoles as well. They all fail way too quickly. I think it’s my feet. I’ve spent well over $400 this year on boots and insoles alone. I’m thinking of trying the Timberland Pro Mudsill boots as my last resort since they have built-in arch support, which is what I think I need. I feel a tearing on the middle of my feet after a long day’s work, which I believe is the plantar fascitis thing.

I quit smoking in 2017, but I quit nicotine all together in 2018. Since 2009 I swapped to vape cigs and more modern vape devices. Swapped back and forth back to smoking a couple times due to being fed up with bad quality with vape devices and constant maintenance. Eventually I said to help with it all in 2018 and put everything away and stopped using it, cold turkey. Had a few cigarettes a few months ago as a social smoker thing. Glad I quit and never gonna go back. It was a long journey, but hella worth it.

Funnily enough, under this post in my feed, is a post that says Lemmy.World and Sh.itjust.works are DOWN. Lol

This is relevant to Issue 1 being voted on in Ohio. The issue will change voting on ammendments to go from a simple majority to 60% along with other stuff that’s bad.

People have signs in their yard that say “Vote Yes…Protect the 2nd Ammendment”. This state vote issue has nothing to do with the 2nd Ammendment and its the weirdest take to me right now.

Legit Street Cars, Primitive Technology, Ghost Town Living, Donut (their older stuff is better than newer), Colin Furze (older stuff also better than new, but newer stuff is bigger, more expensive projects as his channel has grown), Blackmail Studio and Wristwatch Revival. Those are the YT channels I’m constantly watching (along with Critical Role, but excluded due to length of episodes).

Edit: Oh and SpyroPyro does some awesome stuff with Lasers.
