@mur2501 Wow, if we had a rainy season from june till september... that's a lot of school kids going to be very angry because their summer holidays are totally ruined. ;)

@mur2501 The snails will come out of their dens anyway whether it's wet or dry here. A few years ago, during a heatwave, I decided to roam around in my garden near midnight, wielding a flashlight, rubber gloves, and a large bowl.

The catch of the night was quite interesting. Over 50 snails caught, some of which were having kinky sex too. And my rubber gloves were bloody hard to clean afterwards because it was totally covered in slime. Slimer from the Ghostbuster would've been jealous.

Didn't have a lot of trouble with snails for a few weeks after that, heh.

20-25C is my ideal temperature. It's going to be nice the coming weeks. With some small rain the coming weekend, apparently.

When does the rainy season end?

@jmw150 Happy birthday in advance. Now quickly go accomplish stuff!

@merovingian Ahhh, finally some people petted the cat near the end. I was waiting for it.

@mur2501 I'm alright. It's finally getting to have a real summer-y feel this week, after over 2 months of regular rain and not-so-very-warm spring season. Usually May is a perfect sunny month... well the sunny part arrived at the very end of the last week. It'll hover around 20+C the coming 2 weeks at least. Quite a change up from the 12-15C the past month(s).

I suspect my cat will go outside more often the coming time. He usually naps on a stool very near me, but those moments might be reserved for the evenings now.

@Pat Is that counted from roughly 2 weeks after the relaxing? Because those first 2 weeks are still from before the relaxing.

Starting to see little orange flags splattered everywhere in my neighbourhood. I guess the Dutch football team might be in some competition?

@feditips Is there an easy way for an end user to force an update? This seems a bit a bad thing for the fediverse if everything's showing inaccurate numbers.

@thatbrickster Good that they figured out what might have caused it.. now hope they can figure out how to fix it. :D

And man, what an obnoxious site. 'Trending', 'Related articles' and more rubbish like that breaking up that article in many sections. Didn't make it comfortable to read.

@bonifartius Oh gods, the slugs.. the past few months were very rainy (shittiest spring season in a while). Slugs, snails, I hate them with a passion. -.-

I should use the beer in my fridge to make a snail trap with. (The only use for beer imo, I don't drink it. :D)
