Rat Luv

I don't know much about soul, and never normally listen to it...but this came up in my recommendations and I can't stop playing it...just utterly STUNNING!

@Yuumo Ichibara I've been thinking about this...and the picture. The bartender might mean 'job'. The monk might mean 'studies'. So maybe this means you CAN mix them...and the jester means have fun while you do both??

So the first one was a secret and I picked up 5 of Wands...the fight card! So that was suggesting possible conflicts...though nothing you coudn't handle! Recheck! I drew: THREE OF CUPS This could be a truce! Maybe the fight is coming to an end and you will find common ground with the people, or circumstances, you thought you were up against. This card's also about community and friendship, so if a rough period comes up, you can count on support from local people even if you didn't expect their help? They're all saying cheers! So I guess, whatever battles you go through (or are going through), kindness and community are just a step away Or maybe a situation you're dreading, because you think you'll just get bogged down with fights with others, will actually be a minor tiff and you'll all get along OK after?

Maybe I'm lucky, I never felt pressured for sex in SL. Maybe the occasional person from Spain saying "SEXO?" Or sometimes I got asked by guests when I was hosting in a club...but if I said "No thanks, I'm just not interested in that" they were usually "OK!" and didn't push it. My friends on SL were all sex-mad lol. Doesn't bother me, just never found it that interesting. Though I jumped on a tentacle bed in a furry castle once. I didn't even know it was a 'thing'... and helped my friend test her new sex poses HD (fully clothed!). I didn't know some of the moves were possible... But back to the question...when I was hosting and SL clubbing a lot, think I would have become burnt out if I hadn't made time to go to a sandbox and build in peace and quiet. It was nice going from being an extrovert, and trying to entertain everyone in the club or have fun with SL club friends, to just being a quiet, anonymous student in a build or language class

Does anyone remember that 'creepy clown' trend a few years ago (I think mostly in America) when suddenly they were appearing everywhere at night, and by the side of the road and running up to cars? That was bonkers...and then people formed mobs to go after them, and some kid dressed as a clown got stabbed

(though it might be funny to reply with 'WHAT THE HELL IS EVEN THAT' man 😜)

THIS 👆 ❤️ I wouldn't even waste your time and energy on them!

Oh no, I meant I go at 7am to avoid the crowds. I went one afternoon in April and it was packed, and a few people were getting angry because half the self-service tills were down...so I decided to just get up early and do it first thing.

This is why I can't understand people who get furious and say the lockdown's trampling on their rights...it's not even a real lockdown! As far as I can see you could get in trouble in May for sitting in an almost empty park with nobody near you...but it's fine to crowd into Starbucks, or go on holiday (so many people from my work have taken flights around Europe this summer...) I just go to the supermarket at 7am, twice a week now, or order from Boots online...crowds and people walking up close are doing my head in

It'd be very easy for me to say "do this one!" or "no, do that one!" when I don't have to face the consequences. Or to give advice that can affect peoples' lives based on drawing a random card from a pack of playing cards. Just want to stress, everything I've said in this thread should be taken with a pinch of salt and was just meant for a bit of fun, I hope I made that clear...I don't have any special hoodoo powers.

Oh thanks! Luv wasabi so will look out for those, hopefully they have some in my local supermarkets!

That pizza sounds great!

Please bring back Piggins. And just for my suggestion (I know you're reading Obi!), please let me have free dibs on Squiggin Piggins

I drew: THREE OF PENTACLES It's the teamwork card! You've got the innkeeper, the monk and the jester (I think it's a jester? or else he got trapped in a curtain ) hanging around, plotting their next move! Actually, is it an innkeeper? It looks like he's polishing a wine glass...¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Anyway, this card shows you're capable of getting things done properly - so whichever option you choose, you'll do it well! The card is also saying "prepare yourself!" so if you haven't already done it, maybe make a list of the pros and cons of each choice... like what you'll need to do, things you might have to give up or change, etc, for each option. So if you choose studies, perhaps think about how you'll look after yourself without a fixed income. If you go for the job, will there be opportunities for you to still study, and if not, will that eventually become frustrating? The card also suggests collaborations with other people, or being part of a cool team If the job and studies are related, taking the job could be a good way to test out what you've learned, to see how well that knowledge works when other people are involved? It's like that old saying, "You can learn more on the job than in class!" (I think that's right?) It's like the three people on this card are the Page of Cups, the Hermit and the Fool, and the Fool's saying, "Yeah, I did a degree in bar management" and the Page is saying "Oh yeah? I do it full time, it's not as easy as you think!" and the Hermit and Fool go along to help him in the bar, and hours later the Fool says "OK, I didn't realise what it's like to clean 1,000 cups in one night - but now I know". (Is there any way you can take the job AND carry on your studies?)

No need to fear! Clowns are pretty chill 😎

I agree! Wish I didn't have to wear shoes at all... That has been one nice thing about this year... I would even go to the supermarket barefoot except for the possible comments and them asking me to leave, or litter on the street...

I've only recently discovered Hawkwind...not bad, IMO! This is my favourite so far, though they changed their name slightly for this release..."I can read your mind like a magazine" ...been a real earworm today

Press conference starts in 2 minutes!!

Ah OK - I got the wrong end of the stick. No, can't argue with that!

Think I'll just say "Yes, of course I have it!" and self-isolate for another 14 days

I remember being at midnight mass (my family's Catholic) when I was 7 or 8 and suddenly getting worried and asking my mum "What if Santa misses us tonight or forgets our street?" My whole family was going "Shh!" and told me if I kept talking he wouldn't come, and my sister pinched me. So I spent the rest of midnight mass in despair, terrified I'd jinxed it

When my dad woke me up at 2am putting the presents in my room 9 I think

Now I'm more scared about the swab up the nose than getting coronavirus
