  1. but did you know that Miss Minutes is also the voice of Twilight Sparkle (and tons of other animated stuff) from My little pony cartoon?
  2. that's awesome! I have 2 foals so far, but best i had was 14 odds in G-race on one of them. if the mare glitch was still working I would def snag a cover. Saving my last 2 Buterin nags to breed with my Finney if he ever gets out of his stuck race.
  3. it looks like a lot of the races are stuck. a stud i want to breed has been in a race since 8am that just sits there in the events page. all the $2.50 raced I want to get into are stuck on the Class IV page in the same way.
  4. oh one more thing I saw on twitter. If you are buying a philly, I would not do it by putting in an offer lower than the asking price right now. Scumbags could see your offer, then breed a foal, then hit the sell button meaning you would have to wait a month before breeding again.
  5. damn, was only able to get 4 covers on my stud (including one of my own) before they pulled it from the listing. better than 3 i guess. Maybe I priced it way too low at .2ETH, but it worked out to net me .33 ETH in the wallet for the 3 breeds, plus got a Z6 Legendary Szabo foal for .13. I might mess around see if i can get some foals out of my mare. Seems like the precedent for ZED fuckups is that they never go back and try to take horses away or anything like that when ETH has been paid
  6. yeah, trying to get a race is tough right now. it might be time get some more servers or something. it feels like they are running this on home PC and forgot to turn off the SETI search. my other horse, Oz and Lbs is still in limbo waiting to get into the stud farm after 2 hours this morning. Oh well, gonna race him a few times.
  7. give it 5-10 mins on seeing a foal. I never even got a successful message, but then saw my money was gone. Then later the foal was in my stable.
  8. there seems to be no limit on filly set yet. I bred mine and it looks like i could breed again. just ran out of money in my wallet.
  9. finally! delivered something earlier than expected. hopefully not a s-show. if anyone is interested i am putting my unraced Z3 Szabo, Giant Stakes https://zed.run/racehorse/1103, in the stud farm at .2ETH. Right now that's the cheapest Z3 out there. Still waiting for the horse to actually appear on the list. just listed it ~5min ago. not sure how long that is going to take.
  10. This. get a lefthanded putter and practice. Then put left-handed in situations where you would yip before. sooner or later your brain will stop choking at those distances.
  11. sweet! someone posts the fastest times at each distance each day on twitter. should see if you made it. maybe it won't last but in first right now.
  12. There exists a wage that would bring in the needed help for all these places. right now, paying that amount would piss off their current employees or take bite out of profits if they had to raise everyone's wage. Then the genie is out of the bottle and the only way to lower wages later is to fire everyone and then hire new people. They are betting on being able to get by with fewer people while the labor pool fills in throughout the rest of the year and they can hire cheaper labor more in line with what they were paying. Plus they get the benefit of crying about it and forcing State gov to cancel benefits for their citizens.
  13. down to the final race sitting with Energy Rush in a tie for 8th place. I have already raced and gotten the max 5 points so should move up with a total of 27 for 9 races. not sure if it's enough to get one of the top 3 spots. Need those above me to whiff on placing 4th - 8th. I'll at least get my entry fee back. These will be awesome when players can have more control over tourneys and stuff like that. anyway, was good to race this donkey with a purpose for once.
  14. After 2 races my donkey Energy Rush is doing pretty well. Got two 6th place finishes ( 3 points each). 6 points is good for 20th so far with about 2/3 of the 100 horse field having at least 1 race. This horse finishes 4th 22% of the time, by far the most finished position, so need some of that consistency to get 6 points in the last race. 6th-20th place get their ETH back basically. only bad part is this donkey races in Class II and free races are hard to come by and there are no $2.50 races either.
  15. don't employers look at people's fb pages? one swim through Justin's would be enough to put him on a watchlist, much less want to provide him employment for your company.
  16. I have a pump that must have slightly expanded or something during icemagedon. It was not leaking or anything when the crew came to replace some cracked plumbing the first time around. Fast forward a month later and a tiny drip is starting. No big deal, we think it's just the collar that needs tightening. It starts leaking at little more so I try to get back on the pool repair schedule. lol. By the time they can come out just to look at it, it's a leak coming from the bottom of the pump. Crap. dude says cracked pump. 4 weeks later and they are finally supposed to come out on Tuesday to fix. - Other shops I called were running 8 weeks. This plus the new AC we just put in yesterday are really making me short the family's medical/food/well being to keep my drug and gambling 'problem' going full tilt. thanks a lot Obama
  17. i mean, surly 1% probably consider this cheap. Who can't find $13K in their couch cushions for a good outdoor TV? https://www.samsung.com/us/televisions-home-theater/tvs/the-terrace/samsung-75-lst9t-the-terrace-full-sun-qled-4k-smart-tv-2021-qn75lst9tafxza/
  18. company listed Jul 6 as date where we no longer had to get permission (HR+legal) to come back in to office. I went back in for the first time in over a year to help train a new hire last week. was planning on going back in for a few days this week, but they are moving all our desks/offices to a new part of the building (for some reason) and probably won't be ready for a while. - They still have the policy that, even if vaccinated, everyone must wear a mask in the office. I was team mask through all this past year when i was out getting stuff, but I don't want to come back to office being fully vaxed and wear a mask all day. Hoping they get that changed. it's a huge multi-national company so policies probably take time to change, but I'll keep WFH until that gets fixed. Even then, I plan to wfh 2-3 times per week (Tue-Thurs) but still waiting to see if the policy gets changed to officially allow that. Currently pre-covid it was 1x per week, which i never really took advantage of since i was new to the company and needed to meet as many people as possible. My commute sucks ass (30-40m each way), but the kids' school is about 3/4 of the way to the office, so have to travel up there anyway.
  19. lol, i am entering in this. I have a horse that loves to finish 4th place.
  20. convo with 10yo daughter "Dad, i feel like i am missing out on experiencing all the different Earths, you know if there are other multiverses. I mean, I'll never get to experience those if i am just in this one" Me: ooookay. well, we can't travel to other multiverses yet, but maybe some day FOMO of multiverses is real, apparently.
  21. i thought some antivax went and protested at a concert or something. looked it up, yeah it was the foo fighters last week.
