My premature and asymetrical hair loss is finally becoming noticeable. What a lovely physical that will turn into! All the women will lust for my semi-pate!

^ Workout, get relatively big, go full bald, assuming your head isn't oddly shaped. Women love that shit.

Seconded and this is also my plan of attack

I have been reading into lifting and hair loss and have come to the conclusion it may be genetic with some supplementation affecting it negatively.

blisters. And being abroad in a city where your phone provider has no contract for roaming data, meaning google Maps Emergency Service is not available, meaning more blisters when retracing your steps.

Hoods-damned UPS apparently only hires idiots who can't follow simple instructions. (Exceptions being anyone here who might work for them. ) Yesterday afternoon I called to ask them to give the driver special delivery instructions for their 2nd delivery attempt: my front door will be unlocked, just push it open and leave the parcel on the stairs. Simple, yes?

Of course it wasn't done, the driver just attempted to deliver again and since I wasn't there they said "attempt failed." Well of course it failed, dumb fucks, I'm at work. I normally wouldn't be this pissed but those are Xmas gifts for other people...so now they're going to have to deliver to my office and I'll just cross my fingers that I won't get in trouble, since we're not supposed to get personal deliveries at work.

Bah.

Hey lady on Maternity leave at my work...I realize you have a baby now and I realize you want to show your baby off at work because you aren't working, but if you bring your baby in and she/he starts screaming and crying loudly forever...then f*** off, we don't need you here today. I certainly don't need to listen to your offspring's demonic cries permeating into my office from the other end of the building.

Drank too much on my birthday.

Went to see my mother sing with her choir tonight (in the small village where my sister now lives), and several things messed with my groove. First thing, the lighting in the church was so bad that i couldn't get any good pics (and I was really hoping to be able to get some good shots for my mom and her friends).

Secondly, inconsiderate people with their loud and hyperactive children REALLY messed with my groove. I don't really do well in crowds to begin with, but i managed to find myself some space to shoot the performance, free of people jostling me. And then this couple with their 2 moronic kids moved to stand right beside me (on either side of me) and just continued to leave their kids run around the back of the church. I got repeatedly bumped by the mother, the father, and the kids, but since no one else seemed to care i figured I'd just move a bit further over and continue to take my photos. But of course since their kids kept running everywhere, both parents and kids ended up hovering beside me again within minutes. I know it seems trivial, but at least other parents had the good grace to take their young kids outside if they started to get antsy, rather than spoil other people's enjoyment of the singing.

I know it seems trivial, but for some reason the whole thing angered me to a completely irrational level which i don't like. It should have been an nice evening out.

The Loneliest Whale in the World.

In 2004, The New York Times wrote an article about the loneliest whale in the world. Scientists have been tracking her since 1992 and they discovered the problem:

She isn’t like any other baleen whale. Unlike all other whales, she doesn’t have friends. She doesn’t have a family. She doesn’t belong to any tribe, pack or gang. She doesn’t have a lover. She never had one. Her songs come in groups of two to six calls, lasting for five to six seconds each. But her voice is unlike any other baleen whale. It is unique—while the rest of her kind communicate between 12 and 25hz, she sings at 52hz. You see, that’s precisely the problem. No other whales can hear her. Every one of her desperate calls to communicate remains unanswered. Each cry ignored. And, with every lonely song, she becomes sadder and more frustrated, her notes going deeper in despair as the years go by.

Just imagine that massive mammal, floating alone and singing—too big to connect with any of the beings it passes, feeling paradoxically small in the vast stretches of empty, open ocean.

Dawwww what a downer!

The cryptozoologist Oll Lewis speculates that the lonely whale might be “a deformed hybrid between two different species of whale,” or even “the last surviving member of an unknown species.”

Saddest story man. I'm already a sucker for animals and nature. This just makes me want to adopt her and learn to sing to her.

The saddest part is this could be compensated for with a contact microphone, a signal processor, & a speaker, all enclosed in a waterproof box strapped to the whale's head.
