why isn't there a raccoon thread all up in here yet

Guys it has been quite some time and I know this forum isn't very active but I think it is important that everyone acknowledge the greatness of this raccoon in St. Paul Minnesota. https://mashable.com/2018/06/13/mpr-raccoon-climbing-building/?…

I'd still very much like to hear from anyone who has any suggestions for this trip. The trip is in the end of May.

Hi guys, Thanks for the updates! It's good to hear from you all. Alistair, tell me more about learning sign language with your daughter. My wife, who has a hearing impairment, has always resisted learning sign language, but we've learned …

We're getting older and eating more boring breakfasts now, Anne. The boringest of breakfasts.

Yeah I noticed that my sauce was much more thick and opaque than most that I see, but the description says rich so I went rich. Francesinha poveira is the first one on the list this month, a variant but much much different than what I just had. Tho…

I recently picked up my guitar again and restrung it and started playing more regularly, and in fact for the first time in my life I bought a capo entirely so I could start learning Jason Molina songs ('cause the tabs I found for my 2 favorite …

When the site was updated several years before we all shuffled off and away, probably my best post ever (about my highschool friend Eric, who fled to Mexico with his invalid mother when convicted of sex crimes) disappeared, so fuckit. Fuck it all. I…

I've been struggling with quitting smoking since my eldest was born nearly 18 years ago. I bought some ecigarette gear nearly a year ago and was able to pretty quickly stop smoking. I have had 2 cigarettes in 2015, one of them after midnight at…

Dumb Parent Tricks
I'm sorry I dropped the ball on replying to this. My boys kind of retreat into their own thing a lot and it can be hard to engage them too. I've just been trying to take it back by talking to them a lot, but for them to not resent the intr…

Thanks! I made the DNS change yesterday afternoon before I left work. Everything looks good on the new host? No issues to report?

By the way, Z, in preparation for this, I just noticed that the DNS for thenewmiddle.net was still pointing to your servers so I redirected it to mine. Let me know if there are any subdomains or MX or other records you still needed. All I've go…

Hey guys I'm probably going to be transferring the hosting from the AWS instance over to a new host that will be shared between this site and some of my other sites at some point this weekend. Just FYI in case you see any issues

What are you reading at the moment?
davy: I sort of dug The Passage--really liked the idea and the setup but I think that partway through it kind of got cinematic, but in a bad way? Like, I started noticing more and more action movie tropes. Like I said though, the idea and maybe the …

Hi davy, I read The Martian and it was great. I haven't read The Passage. I'll check that out and the others you mentioned.

We're getting old, and sometimes we go to shows by ourselves.
Right on, Nick. I'm 44. I haven't been to a show in a year maybe? But it's not a pain for me to be at a show alone. It's mostly a pain to get there, since I'm in the south suburbs and most of the shows I want to see are on …

Where were we: 2015 music thread
Feeling ambivalent guys, do I want to check out the new Gandalfs or not? I'm listening to GY!BE now and as for Sufjan, my wife's super nice and really earnest little cousin likes it enough for both of us I think.

That Mystery Team movie is sitting in a Netflix envelope on my coffee table at home right now, waiting for Mindy and I to watch it tonight. So that's why I put it on my queue :)
