Saying farewell to my millitary trainer for his kind help and wonderful training style during these 18 days , I will miss him for a long time  !

[Grim Portent]

Decided to try going off my sleep aid medication to see how I fare without it these days. Been past the time it takes to leave the system for a few weeks and the results are meh. I sleep less, am constantly tired and directionless, as opposed to when I'm on the meds, sleep more, am constantly tired but also able to focus on things for longer.

'Course I haven't tried this while also not having my SSRI in my system, so how I'd be completely sober is still an unknown. Probably not good mind you.


In similar but worse news, my brother has been without his ADHD meds for a while now, due to supply chain issues caused by the company that makes the pill's patent expiring, and whoooo boy is he not doing well. Withdrawal aside, his ADHD is rather bad and he'd gotten used to being able to think clearly with his meds, so going back to unmedicated thought processes has been rough on him to the point he's on medical leave from his job.


Finally, I've been painting a big ass dragon miniature for a while, and got to the point of gluing on the wings to finish him up. One wing went on perfectly fine, no issues at all. The other has steadfastly refused to attach, and now is covered in scabby glue that is proving hard to shift so I can try again with a clean slate. A dragon with one wing missing is hardly visually complete, but at the moment I'm feeling too drained to try and fix the damn thing.

[Loud Whispers]

Maybe dragon with no wings?

[scriver]

One winged angel

[Schmaven]

A dragon that narrowly won a fight against another dragon might have lost a wing in the process too. 

I once got frustrated making a model of the Bismarck battleship, so I just started sprinkling small parts on the deck to look like rubble from the naval battle.

Some of the old-school pewter Battletech models are a pain like that, a lot of ball joints that just don't work with super glue good.

My reseen Marauder and dark age Black Knight have disassembled themselves pretty often.  Doesn't help that that Marauder is really top heavy too.  A Legionaire with spindly ball jointed arms I kinda gave up on.

On other forum, two rampant flooders simultaneously said to admin: "If we are not allowed to argue and insult each other, then we'd rather leave." They didn't leave. Neither did admin ban them. Mothefuckers.

Marauders have ALWAYS been a nightmare, those bloody arms. I ended up getting a tiny drill and adding a pin I could socket well into the shoulder base, even that didn't last more than a couple of play sessions. mind you, glue's better these days, so that approach might work slightly better now.

One of the only art galleries here that had 1. Free admission and 2. Young artists from the university, well, it was gutted and turned into a hair salon... C'mon, man...

[scriver]

You mean like closed down or like "too many hair style artists showed up and took over"

[delphonso]

If only. I mean shut down.

[Frumple]

My mom's actually been involved a couple times with trying to open and maintain local art galleries. It's... not easy, and as near as I've noticed they're even more likely to shut down than normal business ventures, which themselves have a tremendous attrition rate.

Passion sees those things spring up but logistics knock them back down sooner or later, often sooner.

[King Zultan]

It's always a shame to hear about something like that getting shut down.

These days I am struggling with my adv anced mathematics , it is quite difficult ! During the whole lesson , I am feeling sleepy and dizzy , not only because I am not good at my Mathematics during my middle school time ,but also for the teacher's tone is slow and soft , I could not get through with my lesson and write down my notes very well .
Maybe I should learn it by myself , with some Math lesson videos online .

[hector13]

That reminds me of sociology lessons I had at university. The lecturer was very monotone, and it was the first class I had in the morning, so I tended to fall asleep during it.

Thank goodness for PowerPoint slides being uploaded, else I wouldn’t have had any notes from the class.
