That's life you go around and share many subscriptions with friends/family, we're sharing our plex with Nathan, my older sister Tina, I think we got my older brother Jim & his wife Tamera on it too, our friends Andrew Lamb and Donna out in Logan Utah atm (they plan to move into Emmett Idaho here soon maybe due to a poor landlord at their current place.), and Edrick our friend whom moved away we will barely see him now sadly but we got him on it too. (I honestly hate adulthood, and evilly await the children whom act so care free and like it's not a big deal to finally see IT IS A BIG DEAL and they can't really ignore it. twisted ) I could never begin to explain my sleep schedule when I was that young for two reasons; A.) I mainly try to forget that young as it includes my time when I was five and witnessed my mother's death, and B.) both parents whom could explain how it was are now both gone from my life & I don't remember so it's a lost schedule now. (What I can and do recall is rough nights to sleep when I did learn fully my mother was gone gone.) Ngl it feels like almost everyone (least that I know.) has at one time skipped a class or many classes for any reason. {Obviously though becoming a delinquent due to mean teachers and me acting out against those teachers since they were treating me like s**t, it's kind of obvious I'd know many class skippers. sweatdrop The humorous thing is on zodiac games my knight squad from Black Clover was the Black Bulls which earned a "yeah I see it." from me, Travis & Regina both whom knows what I been through in life, & many friends and I'm proud of it for honestly I'll always be a proud misfit to some degree. *I do regret a few bits like going too far cause I was having a bad day, so I did things like get other delinquents to car jack the meanest teacher's car and crash it into a ditch far out of town one late night, or cause some other delinquents not my group I was with jumped me alone or me in the group I'd go too far by maybe breaking an arm or a leg if not both of some of the attackers.} All the same when it came to skipping classes I mainly was skipping due to rude teachers and peers in the classroom but every once in a while I had skipped classes due to irl issues, my friend Andrew Lamb was the same or he skipped simply cause I skipped, Derek skipped due to teachers hating on his family members thus they all hated him or his family members were dumb and got hurt so he left school a lot to check in on them all (his family members were all bad alcoholics & drug abusers so life dealt him shitty cards from the start and he was always good friend of mine even before high school when we all hit delinquent teens.), Forest skipped cause he was best pals with Derek due to his own parents were like Derek's parents/older siblings, Brian Patakey skipped cause he just didn't like the school, and finally Austin Thompson whom sadly was sent to the delinquent school by Mr. Carter the a*****e principal we all had simply because he was my best friend and his parents had no care about protecting him ever (damn bastards.) but once a while we got to sneak him out of that hell hole together as a team. [We had others, but I don't recall their names mainly as my main few I was always with most where the ones I named off just now.] And aye we quiet kids were always the freakiest ones, and I'm glad to have shown my school peers that they need to fear our kind and not mess with them as my actions alone made any bully of other quiet kids stop bullying them altogether as they feared what would happen. I'm glad to have emotions and not be broken well... broken in the ways of not having any emotion we'd need to be concerned about it all. sweatdrop (I'm 100% broken in other ways. 3nodding ) Teenager cats are fun as they're stuck in acting like they're a baby but also wanting to be the adult cat they're suppose to be & that's why you really have to love them. xd (We males in general love to be gross at times, and gross has many meanings to others. razz )

Queen Spazzy Don't ask how long it took me to finally find a search term that would reliably turn up images for Suzie from Mairimashita! Iruma-kun. It's been a loooong time. Honest I'd never ask for I know it takes quite a while anymore to find a will work gif of any for image sharing on gaia now it feels. (Got to love Suzie, she's one of my favorite Mairimashita! Iruma-kun characters of the many. The Anime has a lot of great characters both for good guys and the bad guys.) We had some baby birds that hatched a few weeks ago that were nested in our gutters and now they're at the age of learning to fly about, so I'm getting to watch them trying to learn to fly now out the front window I'm near.

With the prices of streaming subs these days, it's hardly any wonder people share. Like, if they'd stop increasing the cost all the time, they could probably retain more customers. But nooo, they only worship the mighty dollar, not GOOD BUSINESS SENSE. Like, Netflix enacted some bs "security" thing to cut back on people sharing, and I would wager their consumer base took a serious nosedive with that.
I always felt really guilty skipping my uni classes, even though it was better for my health to skip. Never skipped in my K-12 schooling, though. I'd get inconsolably upset about having to miss school even when I was sick and it was necessary. I liked learning too much. cat_sweatdrop Even the years when I didn't like the teachers, or the teachers were related to one of the kids in my class and would unfairly hold other high-achieving students back from the advanced material they were more than capable of tackling. (Me, it was me, I was the high-achiever that wasn't allowed to read at my actual comprehension level or get too far ahead in math. I despised that teacher so much.)
Eh, we're all broken in one way or another. Some people just don't appreciate the art in the cracks as much as the rest of us. cat_razz
I mean they're literally teenagers, they turned thirteen this spring, they're technically middle-aged men in cat-years. But they still do the whole "I am baby!" thing while also trying to assert that they are strong, independent cats that don't need no (hu)man. They're also convinced they are mighty hunters, but they don't like the outside. (Kiiro isn't a good hunter of anything, except maybe a good place to nap and his brother when he's pissed at him. Shima is... passable. At the very least, he CAN catch a mouse.)
Yeahhh, it takes some serious skills to craft search terms to find the EXACT thing you want if you're after a particular image or obscure/less popular character. I've been honing my skill practically my whole life, and consider myself quite proficient at crafting search queries, but there are still things that take ages to find. =w=;
I LOVE SUZIE!! My beau thinks she's the one I'm most like. Tons of other good characters, too. Opera, Ameri, Asmodeus, Balam-sensei, among many others. Like, there's not a BAD character in the bunch, they're all so good!
I've never watched chicks learn to fly. I like to imagine it's amusing, though. Like, mama bird: Alright, I'm done, get out of here ya freeloaders. Baby birds: NO MAMA, NO! Don't make us leave! Uwaaa- oh, huh, this flying thing is cool, LATER HATERS.

{Not going to lie your baby bird learning to fly dialogue is the exact way I would explain it for one of the two I caught learning to fly. rofl (out of what the kids called them I want to think that one was Tweety *the loud chick* which makes me want to say their sibling the kids named Calm was the one that was more "I can do this, it's easy watch." *proceeds to fall s/he has to catch the branch of our shrub by the window to save himself/herself before s/he goes off flying again* "Er-mmm... See... Easy!"} Aye Netflix's choices has me amazed to see the RV group here still uses it. (want to say that may be why they're slow getting their own house but idk. stare ) Honestly it's sad the world runs on the almighty green paper & circles of metallic. [Minus the other colors of papers and the few metals we design differently in other countries & some states. But all the same money makes the world go round the world seems to always believe & make true.] I always felt bad skipping classes, especially due to the fact I was in a family of you never skip classes & my father was a teacher before I was a born and a little when I was a baby. (I'd love to have stayed in school even and not have dropped out, but I dropped out to care for my father with Alzheimer's which I do not regret too much. It just sucks all my ambitious goals got a thousand times rougher to obtain now & almost everyone *if not all of everyone as my mind makes me fear.* of my family members though they will wont say it at all to my face, all seem to think I'm an idiot which is honestly pissing me off a lot. and if half of the earth goes bye bye you can say your thanks to them for why it occurred.) It really blows your sanity around when you know the face but not the name of your searching for character, so you do the dreaded long search of things like "Anime guys with white hair and golden eyes" and read all the names of the anime of the ones whom look similar to the one you are seeking just to see if it's your searched for character. And speaking of blown sanity... the family here that's in the RV is all ugh... So much drama of their own BS causing that I can't seem to enjoy anything in life atm as I got to turn off this, pause that, stop watching this or that, close out of this, and etc. all because those kids are coming into the house and I'm ******** sick of being told it my fault they are doing it when it's the damn kids whom come staring or go doing!!! There are six kids I can at most keep a good eye on a max of half of them closest to me if I'm not busy doing my own thing to keep some sanity somehow so I do not snap and end up pulling a knife on any of them screaming at top of my lungs "I NEED MY INTROVERT BUBBLE NOT ******** BOTHERED, SO ******** OFF NOW OR GET SHANKED!!!" cause thanks to the darkness of my past I'm not sugarplums and gumdrops I'm an angry black bull with a cactus on my back ready to charge when poked too much so you have the horns and the cactus I may fling off of my back towards you when you knock me into the bad sides of my mood. (It's why I do a lot of walking when really angry over confronting people cause I know a full really angry at the time version of me equals bad news for all I'm angry towards & I'm not going to risk getting myself locked up cause I attacked, or more shunned due to attacking or saying the wrong things which with a over religious PITA family it's real easy to say the wrong thing as you could simply say "Sometimes I really question God." and you pissed them off so much to never invite you to life events again. Honestly it's so bad like that it makes me want to stop going to family anything cause I'm sick of always having to really hold back and change myself to appease those many assholes whom didn't even once lift a damn a** to come down and help our father much. Heck my older siblings did more than half of my dad's own cousins, siblings, and his aunts/uncles still alive kicking. I mean even a phone call to check on me and my sanity would have been great to do as something to do!!!) Even worse half my family doesn't know the other half of my family I know & it's always been that way for us all as honestly as idk at least 75% of the whole Gentry/Huff/Pierce/Wood family out there we got along with Travis which is probably why we get along a lot as family members apart from near same age thing. {Heck we may have even more last names of family members we don't know at all, or know very little of as it feels each other reunion we see a new family member we both don't know at all so we learn something new, that or he knows them but I don't and vice versa.) Going to be blunt the more I live around those six children the more like Kalego I feel compared to my what I would say is my normal of Opera. Normal me: Quiet, does my things, will gladly help out, enjoys being thanked, highly introverted, keeps my dark thoughts to self. Grumping cause of those kids me: "F*** off for now!" attitude when busy with another person I'm helping atm, Still will always help even if not in the mood t do so really, "PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR WORK AND NOT WHAT I'M DOING/WATCHING YOU IDIOTS!!!" gets said when I do not stop myself at those grumpy mood times, *Forces Valkyrie the pup and the youngest kids off of me in a kind manner when they're on me*, *behind their back comments on Vince, Mike, and Regina's poorer choices around those kids with zero shits given*, moments of times I'm here all "GO BACK OUT TO THE RV NOW OR DIE!!!", & lastly I'll take thanks but I'm more ungrateful for it as I'll be all "yeah yeah, but you really could/should have ******** done it all yourself really." (So yeah, the grumpy mood me due to the army of kids *let alone maybe just the RV crowd in general* version of me has to be a Kalego imo.)

Me when the army of children ask everyone if they're having fun when I can't do my things all thanks to them all being inside the house.
(Whenever they're inside I now have to stop all of my stuff so they do not watch it. idk whom all out of those six can and can not watch so I'm now just so mike doesn't chew me out I turn it all off if one is inside, so now I'm bored and grump.)

Ahaha, well, it's nice to know I wasn't completely off about the birds. Side note, my boys would have been INCREDIBLY entertained if ever had a bird nest with chicks near us. They love to bird watch.
Considering how expensive when we gave up Netflix a few years ago, I'd say it probably IS contributing to their... lack of movement on a home. We gave up a lot of minor convenience things so we could pay for our move, and I'd think most people would do that, but maybe I'm just insane. And it truly is a shame the world runs on money. I wish people were more amenable to a barter economy. There are plenty of people that would be better off that way. Imagine being able to pay for necessities by offering a service like painting someone's house or ironing their laundry for a set period of time or something. Sure would be nice.
There are far more (and far better) ways of judging a person's intelligence than their schooling. So your family can stuff it, 'cause they're the idiots for thinking like that.
Yes! And sometimes even when you KNOW the character's name you have to slog through a ton of unrelated shite to get to the thing you ACTUALLY want. (This has been my experience with Suzie. Hence the ages it took to figure out the "magic phrase" to find a gif of her reliably.) Thankfully I usually start out knowing at least the game/anime/whatever franchise a character is from when I need to search, so I just start by finding a wiki for the franchise and trawling the character pages until I figure out the character. Still time-consuming, though, especially for things with TONS of characters, like the Fire Emblem games. Even just a single game in the franchise can have DOZENS of characters. ;w;
Your tales of the clan make me REALLY glad I could always abscond to the camper when I lived with my uncle and his kids. Especially when his ex-wife's fam was visiting. Three kids is about my limit, and even that is pushing it half the time. I am incredibly patient and understanding most of the time, but I have my limits. Seems like your family must be as big as my mom's side of the family. Every time I'd go to a celebration where extended family turned up, like graduation parties, I swear I'd only know half the people present, at best. (I'm also related to, like, half of the county where my hometown is and one of the counties next to it in one way or another. Probably a good thing my beau isn't an area native. cat_razz )
And here's another Eggy-sensei for you. c;

I wish I was there to see our cats but my room atm was Regina's office for work the time they were learning to fly. But I bet they would have freaked out seeing the baby bird have to catch the branch of the shrub if they were out here. No doubt from me Netflix was pricey as heck back then we canceled ours in 2022. We got many different kinds of smarts, which in turn means we all got many different levels of ignorant about or just simply not as smart in levels for those smarts. (Naming a few we got book smarts, tech savvy, street smarts, common sense, occult wisdom, paranormal wisdom, otaku wisdom, multi-language wisdom, management knowledge, and etc. there are a lot but I'm not going to go making a long list of them all.) Aye finding a specific gif of a thing for any character when you do know them is the toughest part of all! So many times I found a gif I really wanted but it's not good for sharing on gaia for the one I found so I got to search harder for one or even change my gif up. (But when they do work am I ever so ecstatic about it.) My case is I could survive the army of kids, if they weren't so lack of kinder to say things... them.{{Love the eggy-sensei.}}

Mike: "I don't like using towels after they been used to mop up dog piss cause they still smell like dog piss some."
What I internally said to him as he tells me this in the morning seeing his towel on the floor to mop the dog's pee: "I know, and isn't it just funny how you went and used all of our towels first to mop your dog's pee for the months you've all been here, but now that once it's your towel you say this to me!?"
What I'm probably going to say out in the real world if he let's me even speak about it more: "Minna used it for Valkyrie's pee earlier and I've just been using it honestly with no knowledge it was your towel as it was a towel to mop Val's peeing moments of excitement or Tyla's times of not taking her outside quick enough."
It's a little white lie as Minna only left it there on the floor and I really didn't know it was his towel and went to use it the last time she peed on our floor, but still the facts are they used all of our towels first and now with his personal towel being used he says this to me like it was never suppose to be his and always be ours. (sure he acted like it was fine as he'll just later on go get himself a whole new towel to use. >And he most likely will pull cash just to do that as he's all hoity and toity Alabama man whom shits on us for being Idaho people.< But still the facts are he clearly wanted just our towels used always which screams out he's quite the d**k as he doesn't care about us at all as he's crashing into all of our lives.)
{{TBH I honestly do not care much about my own towel (mainly cause life has crapped all over me many times in the past I no longer give a fick and accept life will keep taking a massive caca on me, as it's seemed to have done this ever since I turned eleven years old.) but he had them all use the other two people's towels as well & not being them idk their own thoughts at all.}}

One of my boys today went nutso over some birds that were outside. (Finches, my beau thinks they were.) Eventually had to kick him out of the room with the window he can get into because he was clawing at the screen. So he came to my room to pout and is asleep in a box now.
We cancelled our Netflix sub before even then. Got too rich for us to sustain before we even moved from our studio flat, I think, which would have made it something like 2018.
Heh, yeah, I have many kinds of smarts that can be acquired with reading, but I'm lacking in common sense and street smarts. (Though I'm a paranoid and angry-looking smol, so people don't mess with me all the same.) I'm also lacking in the "remembering names" department (unless the name belongs to a pet; 100% I will remember an animal's name before I remember a human's name), and remembering birthdays (the mental gymnastics I have to do to remember my mom's birthday is astounding), keeping track of dates, knowing even what day of the week it is... I can't be relied upon to remember where a car is parked, either, unless I can associate the space/row number with something mathematical, like nine being the square of three. Oh, and I can get lost finding my way from a wet paper bag. It took me a while to actually KNOW the route to the library, and not just rely on "I know have to pass these businesses on the path, oh, there they are, okay, not lost yet." (There are actually alternative routes that would probably cut down on the time I spend waiting at crosswalks, but I definitely would manage to get myself lost trying to take them, so I take my chances with the intersections with traffic lights.) I also lack "social smarts" on top of it all, don't understand people and can't handle most interactions on my own. So, uh, if it's not something I can learn from a book, I probably have little skill with it. cat_sweatdrop
Oh, I might be able to help with the finding! these days I use Tenor, which has a LOT of GIFs for basically every occasion, and I usually don't have TOO much trouble finding what I'm looking for. It's owned by Google, if I remember correctly, so while it's not quite this side of "good brand," it's at least not the evil known by the name of Meta. I used to swear by Giphy, and I'm sure it's still a great option, and honestly prefer their search and tagging and user systems, buuut their privacy policy and terms of service are, in my opinion, hot garbage (and for a short time they were owned by the evil known by the name of Meta, until a UK court ruling that basically boiled down to "you're creating a monopoly with this acquisition; divest yourself of Giphy immediately" ), so I still refuse to use the service. Gfycat was decent, though I abhorred their insistent use of the webp encoding. Though it's a moot point now since they apparently ceased to exist last autumn. Anyway, yeah, Tenor and Giphy are basically your only options for GIF-hosting sites, but if you're willing to go the long way 'round, you can perform an image search on your preferred search engine (I use duckduckgo) and limit the file type to animated GIFs. (So, for example, I can find Kalego GIFs like so via duckduckgo.) Sometimes I rely on the long way 'round when I can't convince Tenor to bring up the exact thing I'm after, like a GIF of Kakyoin with a cherry.
Wait, so he just grabbed whatever towel, that wasn't his, and just mopped up dog messes without even asking? That's messed up. Like, my fam and my beaus fam both have towels SPECIFICALLY for cleaning up messes like that (really old towels and rags that have stains or holes or are fraying), so I'll always ASK first if a household has a preference on what is used to sop up messes like that. Also, how egotistical do you have to BE to be like "I hate this thing, but it'll be fine for ANYONE THAT IS NOT ME" and not even pause for half a second to consider that other people will hate it too?!! ALSO also, being from Alabama gives him even LESS room to talk, in my opinion. I LIVED in the South, I have BEEN to Alabama, STAYED there, even. Being Alabama born and raised is NOTHING to gloat over. I've never been to Idaho (have only been as far west as Iowa), but I am absolutely certain it is better than Alabama. Slightly less worry, at least, of getting shot for walking over the wrong hill and having skin the wrong color. (I hate the South, can you tell?) Honestly, I think you should just hide ALL the towels and make the bastage buy his own paper towels or whatever to sop up HIS OWN DOG'S messes. (I am... really angry about this. Like, if it were my home, I'd probably have come to blows with the jerk and kicked him right the hell out, family be damned. You just don't treat people like that, ANY person, but ESPECIALLY not those of the household so graciously hosting your a** for months.)

(tbh normally all of us here would, but we're trying to control our kick his a** instincts and it really sucks. xp ) Our two cats far as I seen them when I checked on them today {specially after a thunderstorm cut our power for a bit.} have been sleeping on my bed in my bedroom all day with my young one loving to sleep on my pillow. There are a few smarts I have that honestly would/could land me in prison cause knowing wild people. (But I feel many really have that.) Always good to know of paces to find good gifs. emotion_yatta
