So... How was your weekend?

You got to spend some time with your brother. He'll remember that.

Dude I'm like double his age. He's a teenager and I'm not, that's it.
- I'm 40, my siblings are 19 and 23 and 41. They all appreciate hanging out.
- That's unfortunate for you both.
- Sounds like you finally have a chance to be the adult in a room. Could be a fun, new experience for you!

I had a job interview Friday and no one was there to interview me. Apparently HR dropped the ball. It’s 110 outside and I’m homeless and living out of a car atm. We had thunderstorms which meant rolling up the windows. I only have a few bucks left and therefore cannot run the AC because of gas. Once the storms were over it was back to 110 but with nearly 100% humidity and even more sweating. I’m currently stealing WiFi to write this out and I’m hungry AF. So yea, bummer about your 30 minutes.

There are mutual aid communities on lemmy where you might be able to find someone willing to send you some cash through an app. Good luck.
Yeah it was a weird experience.
- Yes that sounds like nothing compared to the hellish experience of being forced to go to comic con.

I had a cookout at my house, had maybe 15 people over, lots of drinking, lots of swimming. I just got a new grill for the party and it was nice to cook on. Today I'm working 12 hours which is annoying but that's life.

Bro here acting like a lil bro with his lil bro

The Left ranked first at the elections in France, so suddenly much, much better than the expected brown/black outcome.

And Labour won a landslide in the UK! Good stuff!
Politics... Too dumb to understand them and honestly don't care to vote about anything. Everyone's corrupt anyways.
- Despite corruption, try looking for which parties spread the least hatred. That's a good start, surely?

Hello,

I see you are a new account, feel free to join !casualconversation@lemm.ee , we have a lot of those threads

It's not a new account. It's a serial ban evader who is on like his 6th account because he keeps getting banned from asklemmy for acting like an incel
- This makes so much sense. This person sounds insufferable on so many levels.
No thank you bot
- Dude did you just call Blaze a bot
- They're not a bot, just a very zealous mod trying to keep traffic and posts happening in some smaller communities.
  
  Most lemmy apps and front ends also identify bot accounts with a bot icon next to the username.

My spouse and I rode our motorcycles from the Midwest to the East Coast over Thursday and Friday. We've spent the weekend hanging out with family and friends that we haven't seen in months. It's been a good time and we'll be here for the rest of the week.

That sounds both cool and terrifying.
- Why terrifying?
- Depends, I guess.
  
  Are they riding fast Moto Guzzis? Really terrifying but also a lot of fun I imagine. Big, slow-ish Harleys? Not that terrifying, also pretty fun and damn cool IMO.

I went to a small (~30 people) festival dedicated to wood carving, because I was asked if a wanted to cook for everyone. Found it very inspiring to get an impression of that very specific sub culture.

Far far too short, though did have a mates birthday so that was fun

Up and down. Depression hit me super hard, slept/read 14-hour days, but despite that, there were some great things.

Took the family out on my little 10' boat and watched the downtown fireworks from the river. We were directly underneath, cardboard shells raining on us! What a rush! None of us has ever seen anything like it.

Been limping along with a shit fridge that barely works. Got a new one from FB for $200! Nicest fridge I've ever had. Going to be a huge project swapping them. Hell, getting it out of the other guy's house was a chore.

And tonight we're hitting Aldi and loading up on food. Can't wait to have a good fridge, freezer and ice maker again.

Congratulations!!!

A working fridge is a great thing!
That sounds interesting enough.

I went to Vienna to see Kraftwerk and it was really great. Vienna itself is a bit shitty though IMO

Pretty good!

I am in parental leave for another two months so I get to play with the little one and stay home.

Congratulations!!

Those times are so great!
- Thank you, friend!

Started GMing a Cyberpunk Red campaign, went to the pool, cleaned my bathtub.

Only understood the second part.

My weekend was interesting. Opened my gaming mouse to swap the left mouse button switch since mine had started doing random double clicks. Discovered the battery was building pressure. Kinda a pain because it's still sitting disassembled while I wait for a new battery, but I'm glad I did find it like that instead of it eventually starting a fire when the package ruptured.

Oh also apparently some spiders successfully mated in my place and the spiderlings hatched on Saturday. I've relaxed my "catch and release, no kill" rule for spiders until further notice, though the one bigger one that showed up last night still got that. Looking around, I don't see any right now. Guessing I've killed like 40 so far. Apparently it'll take them a week or two to starve, assuming they don't catch some of the few bugs in here.

Lol damn, my job is to go to comic conventions and deal with all the weirdos (I don't mean that in a negative way; I'm a fuckin weirdo too) almost every weekend.

I was in South Carolina this weekend, currently staying in a hotel on my way back home. Then next weekend I get to drive back out this same way to Knoxville for a show.

Edited to add: STOP BEING SHITTY, OP. Goddamn you're fuckin insufferable. Why even waste the time on this post if you're not gonna do anything about your life?

Got the air conditioner mounted in the bedroom in time for the heatwave. Now to take a quick afternoon nap and then work on the fence.

It sounds like you're not really interested in how everyone spent their weekend and want to vent instead. But on the off-chance that I've misjudged the situation: the weather was kinda shit, so I spent most of my weekend playing The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles on the Switch. Is good game.

Spent most of today on trains coming back to Germany from my 2 weeks Interrail trip to the UK. Had a great time there. Spent yesterday exploring Bath and climbing up Solsbury Hill in the evening.

My depression has been trolling its way back recently, I was doing good since January... Those two weeks have been hard. Keep crying without knowing why exactly during my visits at my psychologist.

But the weekend wasn't that bad. We went to the municipal pool yesterday, the kid was happy. Today we went to the beach with friends, it was a most beautiful and relaxing day. When we came back, everything started going so wrong, I became super clumsy and almost broke stuff multiple times. Ended up screaming at myself and went to my office in the basement to isolate myself.

I feel bad for my wife and son. They deserve better than what I can offer right now.

Shit, that blows. Sorry to hear that.

Mine's been great! Was playing some old games that I still love

Mine was actually pretty good. I volunteered at a stables on Friday evening. Watered and groomed some horses for a couple hours. Got a haircut on Saturday and my dog got groomed. Spent Sunday playing video games.

Great - long weekend in the US so lots of swimming, bbq, Netflix, and house projects. Appreciated the cool front Friday, but it was too short.

Not good

Same.
