    That's exactly what you said that time I picked up that cute twink in the Castro! I'm starting to wonder about you?

    Yeah, but now it's easier with cellphone cameras. You don't have to dress up and hold the same pose for 15 minutes anymore.

    Not sure where to post this, but I need help.  My 12 yr old grandson needs new gaming headphones to connect to his Nintendo Switch.  Open to suggestions.

    Thought these may be a good choice, but I'm out of my league here.   https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=38760

    I don't know anything about those, but I'm not sold on the IEM style for kids, as they're still growing, ears may change, tips can get lost, etc.

    The Steelseries Arctis 3 with Bluetooth is the typical go-to for Switch, b/c it can do wired to switch, and BT to phone, which you have to have if you're doing voice, which is not an elegant solution, but it's what you need to do since the Switch is limited on headphone connection options.

    A bit more than the Monoprice, but d-_-b

    I"m sure Grahame is going to hop in and drop a link to the same along with 7 links expanding on what I said above within 3 minutes of this posting, so see that for more details. :)

  12. Seattle Humane's Rescue Squad - Day of Giving

    in Off Topic

    Thanks, guys! Means a lot.

    Love it @skullguise - These groups do so much good.

    I love this one program that Seattle Humane has. It's called "Mom's Last Litter." If there is a cat or dog that is pregnant, people can sign up and SH will spay her for free if you surrender the kittens/pups. It benefits a lot of lower-income people in the area, and gets some animals to good homes.

    There is also a pet food bank that is mind blowing, having had eyes on some of the other shelters and how they are so often in need. They've also worked with some of the other shelters and clinics in the region to assist in various ways. When they built their new building a few years back, the old building next door had been able to have a lot of the infrastructure donated to some of the other regional shelters. Nice to have some ties to such a cause.

    I've seen you shoot a gun and drive a car, Brent, so I would suggest that you stick with car games because you'll clearly kill way more people that way.

    All long as I'm killing someone, I'm ok.

    I hurt my foot running and didn’t want to lose the gains i’ve made so I went out on the bike today.  i rode my old mountain bike because I figured the extra weight would help.

    1) That's what you get for running

    2) Glad to see you back out on a bike (well, not see you; wouldn't be glad for that)

    3) Heh, that's probably steeper than a lot of road bikes now; IDK what's going on with your handlebars there, but very similar to a 650b-gravel bike these days, I'd imagine.

    Hey everyone,

    For those who don't know, Kristen (kids' mom) has worked at Seattle Humane since it opened its new facility about 2 years ago. They've been largely closed to the public and have had most of their animals in foster care during COVID, but their situation is starting to change and they're now able to take in some more surgeries/surrenders and start helping animals and families in this area again. I've gotten to hear some of the amazing work they've been able to accomplish with keeping/placing/helping out, and I'm pretty happy to be a part of it. We've fostered multiple special needs dogs, and even adopted a mostly-deaf and mostly-blind miniature poodle we fell in love with, but lost this year.

    Seattle Humane 's Rescue Squad is doing a "Day of Giving" fundraiser and I wanted to pass it along if anyone is interested in helping out. I kicked it off with a donation in ZoëBellë's memory, but there are options specifically for dogs/cats/foster/older animals/special needs/etc.

    Thanks for taking a minute to look.

    In for sample pair.

    I tried out the bass adjustment cable at RMAF after VPI mentioned liking it on a pair of his JH customs. I definitely think it has its place, and like Justin, I think it's useful. I know we all want "the most accurate reproduction possible" and blah blah blah. That's going to be subjective, I'd say, unless we were actually the ones recording it, but I'm more into "I just want something that's fun and sounds good" these days, and if you have something that can blur those lines depending on mood, I'm all for it.

    I have been watching Manny's new series.  Maybe I am biased as I know everyone in the videos as clients or friends, but I am super impressed with the concept.

    Just saw one of these pop up in my feed with Matthew McConaughey, which looks like it was episode 2. Will try to check this out; agree about the concept.

    Have a birthday fit for the eighth tallest Mexican! 

    Cheers! :dan:

    Eighth? What happened to that other one that you bumped off for me about 6 years ago to make me 7th? Am I shrinking, or is it just the kids eating chicken nuggets with growth hormones that accellerated their height. Perhaps they needed a little more to get over the "wall"?

    Thanks everyone! Had a pretty good day, even if I wasn't feeling  that great/was trapped (mostly) indoors.

    The fam got me a gift that arrived a day late. They couldn't get the one I've been wanting for years, but I think this should do just fine, and help me get started on a better path.
