Good to see you around, Pleco @Farmer Pleco!

How's the soil these days? Full of loam, I hope.
The soil is looking great, I've been fertilizing each crop three times. I've ruined the water table for the next 100 years. How have you been Amy?

Welcome back! How have the beet fields been treating you?
Thanks you, I wish I could harvest beets but that's the big leagues. Those beet harvesters costs hundreds of thousands of dollars and the bank won't accept the number of likes I have as collateral for a loan.

Are the Masterclass HITs still around?

Doing those were a lot of fun and its cool to see advertisements for the actual classes pop up every once in a while.

PM SAJ @SAJ as I believe he figured out how to pawn his MTC Trophies...If you can't pawn 'em, they are still trophies, which are typically shiny. Shiny things can be collateral :wink:

You know what really sucks?

Having to pay for uncapped internet raising my damn bill. So I don't get an installation fee but since my deal was expiring I had to find a new one and to keep my same internet speed..I paid 10 extra dollars for basic cable..no equipment fees..

So in all my comcast bill goes from 100 to 129 for a 3 year deal.

We have internet through Spectrum and pay $89.99 plus tax a month. That's internet only.

just stuck my finger in human excrement and my carpal tunnel or whatever it is is starting to hurt again, so I'm probably not going to be able to work much longer. Today is going exactly as planned :finger:

I pay 250 a month, but that's internet, plus every channel they got. Wife loves her shows

there really isn't any fix for that unfortunately (outside of surgery), your probably going to want to go see a doctor and have outpatient surgery on it. Like with everything, never trust a stranger on the internet. But my advice make a doctors appt and see what your options are.

it just started yesterday but it was so bad I couldn't grasp anything and my upper arm was hot to the touch (which I didn't even know was something that could happen), but I don't have a PCP so my only option is to go to an urgent care. The closest urgent care that takes my insurance is over an hour away though :(
