2023.06.04 12:49 Humble_Novice Violent Republican Charged in Connection with Drive-By Shootings at Homes of New Mexico Lawmakers
Article: Here
A failed political candidate has been indicted on federal charges including election interference in connection with a series of drive-by shootings at the homes of state and local lawmakers in Albuquerque, according to a grand jury indictment that was unsealed Wednesday.
The indictment filed in U.S. District Court in Albuquerque takes aim at former Republican candidate Solomon Peña and two alleged accomplices with additional conspiracy and weapons-related charges in connection with the shootings in December 2022 and January of this year on the homes of four Democratic officials, including the current state House speaker.
The attacks came amid a surge of threats and acts of intimidation against election workers and public officials across the country after former President Donald Trump and his allies spread false claims about the outcome of the 2020 presidential election.
U.S. Attorney Alexander Uballez highlighted that the shootings targeted the homes of two county commissioners shortly after their certification of the 2022 election.
"Peña targeted several of these public officials because, in their official capacity, they certified the election, which he lost," Uballez said at a news conference. "In America, voters pick their leaders and would-be leaders don't get to pick which voters they heed, which rules apply to them or which laws to follow."
The shootings began Dec. 4, when eight rounds were fired at the home of Bernalillo County Commissioner Adriann Barboa.
Barboa said Pena had confronted her at her home shortly after the November election.
"He said, 'I want results now,' and he was definitely aggressive," Barboa said. She said that in December, she came home from Christmas shopping and found evidence of gunfire.
"My home was shot right through my front door, four times, out my back window, right through my living room and kitchen, right where I had been playing, only hours before, with my brand-new grandbaby," Barboa said.
Days later, state Rep. Javier Martínez's home was targeted. On Dec. 11, more than a dozen rounds were fired at the home of Bernalillo County Commissioner Debbie O'Malley, police said. Martínez became the Democratic state House speaker in January.
The final related shooting, targeting state Sen. Linda Lopez's home, unfolded in the midnight hour of Jan. 3. Police said more than a dozen shots were fired, including three Lopez said passed through the bedroom of her sleeping daughter. The girl was reportedly awoken by debris dropping onto her bed.
The new indictment outlines smartphone communications including text messages by Peña in the days following the Nov. 8, 2022, election that pinpoint the locations of officials' homes, allege election-rigging and confide to a political ally about plans to "press the attack."
Text messages in the indictment show the 40-year-old candidate bristling with outrage as Bernalillo County commissions certified the results of the midterm election and his own overwhelming defeat as a candidate for a seat in the state House of Representatives. Federal authorities say Peña hired others to conduct the shootings and carried out at least one shooting himself.
Hours before the first shooting on Dec. 4, 2022, Peña texted a Republican political ally, who also lost a bid for state representative, to say "we have to act. I'm continuing my study of election rigging. The enemy will eventually break."
Amid the shootings, Peña later texted one of several unnamed conspirators in the indictment to say, "It is our duty as Statesmen and Patriots, to stop the oligarchs from taking over our country."

2023.06.04 12:11 Thick_Mick_Chick Windows to the Soul:Shiloh's Final Battle
It'd been a busy week. She'd practically begged the clock to go faster at work this afternoon, knowing full well she had the weekend off. Being a police dispatcher? You needed those "mental health breaks" that so many sing virtues about. It'd been a rough mental health week, for sure.
Tish recognized the number on the caller I.D. lt was Ol Shiloh. He'd been a paratrooper in Vietnam, and he came back stateside without so much of a scratch on him physically. Mentally? He saw "gooks" (Ol Shiloh's completely politically incorrect term for the Viet Cong as well as the eponymous Charlie) at the bottom of the basement stairs and in the shower waiting for him to enter the bathroom. As a little girl, Tish knew Ol Shiloh had a good heart but a feeble mind. His visual and auditory hallucinations made him the laughing stock of many of Eerie's child residents who pointed, snickered, and rolled their finger at the side of their temple, indicating he was crazier than a shithouse rat. Ol Shiloh sounded legitimately scared when he called, though. This was not an emotion Tish was familiar with. Nothing rattled Ol Shiloh even with his advanced case of post-traumatic stress disorder. He'd known Tish's parents, and? Oddities aside? Ol Shiloh was a good man. So? Speaking to him had never presented a challenge until today, and, Oh, what a challenge it was...
"Eerie 911. Will this be police, fire, or medical?" Tish had picked up on the 2nd ring. "Ginny? Ginny Lynn? Is that you? " The normally loquacious Shiloh queried. "Shiloh? Hey! Is everything okay?" Tish inquired. Tish was the nickname given to her by her boyfriend, Craig, who Ginny never called by that name. His nickname was Gomez. They were the local Halloween decorating contest champions and adored everything scary, thus the nicknames given to each: Gomez and Morticia from Addams family fame. "Naw, Ginny girl. Ain't okay at all." Ol Shiloh was not himself. "What's happening?" Tish's mounting concern was palpable. "Nothing right now. It was last night." Ol Shiloh spoke, barely above a whisper. Remaining ever so patient, Tish replied, "What happened last night, Shiloh? You don't sound like yourself, and it's worrying me." "Ginny, don't you worry your pretty lil head about me. Harry & Virginia did a fine job raising you. Guess it didn't take in your lil sister, considering she turned out to be the town doorknob. Everybody's had a turn at that girl." Granted, Ol Shiloh was never known to mince his words, but this was strong even for him. What was even worse? He wasn't wrong. Time to get him reigned back in. "Well, I don't think you called to talk to me about my sister's promiscuity. What's going on with you, Shiloh?" Tish was sensing his reluctance to just "spit it out. " It was as if he was having 2nd thoughts about placing the call to begin with. "I had visitors last night." Shiloh barely spoke above a whisper. "Visitors?" Tish queried. Ol Shiloh never had visitors. Hell, he'd been living all by himself every sense Rose died. His saintly wife was married to him 50 years, only a month before she passed away from a fatal heart attack. To say Ol Shiloh was lost? That was an understatement. Shiloh was nothing without Rose. He met her in August of 68, right after he came back stateside from Vietnam in May of that same year. It was love at 1st sight for Ol Shiloh, but Rose needed convincing. She mistakenly thought Shiloh was "a Mama's boy" because he worshipped the ground Rose walked on. He was not. He was simply in love for the 1st and last time. Tish was really surprised with how well Ol Shiloh was able to pull through the 2nd roughest time in his life with the aid of Eerie's townsfolk. And? As Elton John famously quoted? When it comes to Ol Shiloh? I'm still standing. This? This was different. This was not the Shiloh she'd known for the last 53 years of her life. "Ginny, they were kids. Well, they looked like kids, but..." Ol Shiloh trailed off. He shut down again. "Looked like kids? What made you think they weren't kids, Shiloh?" Tish was nervous and ancy. This felt wrong. Something was off. "There were 2 of them. A boy, dark hair, pale skin, and probably about 12 years old. He had a lil girl with him about 7, also dark hair & pale skin." Shiloh was intrepid. Tish quietly listened as Gomez and some of the other deputies were laughing in the office behind her. She gave them a scornful look, and the guys piped down. "They'd knocked at my front door about an hour after the sun went down. I didn't have the porch light on. The screen door was shut and locked, but the wooden door was open. I turned the porch light on so I could see them better. They were both looking down at their feet. The boy whispered something but I couldn't hear, so I asked him to speak up," Shiloh let the flood gates burst forward. "Sir? May we use your phone? We've gotten lost and are scared. We need to call our mother. Please, let us in." The dark-haired boy requested. "I've not seen you kids around here before in my life. Who's your parents?" Shiloh knew everyone in Eerie, Indiana, but he'd never seen these odd looking kids. "Sir? Please, let us in. We need to call our mother. She'll be so worried." The dark-haired boy practically recited word for word what he'd already previously said, which really riled Shiloh up. "Boy, you deaf?", I asked, "Who's your folks?" Shiloh continued to give Tish the play by play. "Sir? Please. We are cold. We are hungry and we are scared. Please, let us in." The dark-haired boy sounded rehearsed and mechanical. "NO! There's something not right here." Ol Shiloh didn't survive a hot tour in the jungle because he didn't have good instincts. "Sir, please, if you could just let us in." The little dark-haired girl then chimed in. Ol Shiloh knew instinctively not to trust these 2 but found himself being drawn to them paradoxically. His hand reached for the storm door to open it even though every fiber in his being told him not to. "What the hell are you kids cause you ain't human?!" Ol Shiloh was more nervous now than when he was a tunnel rat. Both children looked up and to Shiloh simultaneously. What he saw scared him worse than any night he'd spent in jungle. Their eyes were black, not just the pupil. The Iris, cornea, and pupil were all black but not just any black. The deepest black, pure obsidian. The answers to all of the galaxy's most burning questions were in those pitch black bottomless depth eyes. "Shiloh Svengaard, let us IN!" both children stared into Shiloh's pale milky blue eyes as he stared back into their black ones. "NO. NO, NOW GO AWAY!" Shiloh slammed the wooden door and locked it. He watched as the black eyed children walked to the end of his driveway and onto James Dean Boulevard. They went off into the night and Ol Shiloh didn't see them anymore. "So, you thought they'd return?" Tish was a tad overwhelmed. Ol Shiloh had audio and visual hallucinations but it was always fellow soldiers, the Viet Cong or the North Vietnamese Army. It sure as hell wasn't black eyed tweens. "Ginny girl, I don't think they'll return. I know it. They're coming for me. I know they are." Delusions of persecution certainly isn't anything new to Tish when it came to Ol Shiloh but this was different. Shiloh was full of doubt and self defeat. Never in his life had Ol Shiloh backed down from a fight. This? This was uncharted territory. "Want Don to swing by on patrol tonight? Craig and I are having a lil evening out so he won't be on. Don would be glad to do it, Shiloh. Really." Comforting and reassuring Ol Shiloh was Tish's main concern at the moment. "Yeah, Ginny Girl. Have Don cruise by my place if he would. Maybe a patrol car will keep these evil fucking little bastards away from me and my house. Best part of those lil sons a bitches dripped down their Mama's leg when she was getting pregnant with 'em!" Ol Shiloh always had a way with words. "Okay. I'll tell him but remember to use the non emergency line next time, Shiloh. Can't tie 911 up with non emergent calls." Tish gently scolded. "Fuck that non emergency number, Ginny girl! It prompts me to press 1 for English and 2 for the ESPENOIL (pronounced ESPN OIL) and bullshit! I just call 911 and get ahold of you!" Shiloh wasn't about to call an automated line. That just wasn't how he did things. Tish was the one that could handle his problems. She was the good sister. "Okay, okay, Shiloh. I'll tell Don. You just take it from me. Rose wouldn't want to see you like this." Tish was truly concerned. "Ginny girl, my Rosie can't see anything anymore." And with that? He hung up the phone. The guys were still hanging out in the office, albeit much quieter. "Sorry 'bout that. We didn't know you were on the phone. We wouldn't have been telling jokes if we knew you were on the phone." Gomez sheepishly looked down at the table where he was seated with 2 other deputies, Don & Bubba. "It wouldn't have mattered. Ol Shiloh was ranting so much he didn't even hear you guys." Tish dismissed. "Ol Shiloh? What put a hair across his ass?" Don asked. "He said 2 kids came by last night about an hour after dark, wanting to be let in the house. He was uncharacteristically afraid. He said they just kept repeating to let them in so they could call their mother. He felt something was off, something wasn't right." Tish trailed off. "Kids? Whose kids?" Gomez spoke up. "He didn't know. He even asked the kids who their parents were but they just kept asking to come in the house." Tish replied. "Anyway, he said when he really got scared was when both kids looked up at him and their eyes were black. Their eyes were completely black." Tish kept relaying everything Ol Shiloh told her. Gomez, Don & Bubba looked at her as if she'd grown a 2nd head. "I'm just telling you what he said." Tish defended. "When he saw those black eyes? He panicked, slammed and locked the wooden door and told them to go away. They did." Tish finished. "So what does Lt. Dan want us to do with a couple of kids with colored contacts pranking the local crazy Vietnam Vet?" Don sighed. "I offered for you to swing by his place on patrol tonight. He was pleased with that." Tish informed. "FFS. Fine. Bubba and I can swing by a few times tonight as long as it shuts that old crazy bastard up." Don resigned to his fate. "You know, Don? No one will ever accuse you of being too caring." Tish just rolled her eyes. "BTW? What was the joke you guys were laughing at?" Tish suddenly remembered. "There was a young Indian warrior who asked the tribe's chief one day how he decided on all of the babies' names when they were born since he was given the honor of naming all of the children"... Bubba began. "He said, "My son, if there is an eagle flying over when a child is being born? I call that child Eagle Flying Over. If there is snow gently falling when a child is being born? I call that child Snow Gently Falling, but tell me, Two Dogs Fucking, why do you ask?" Bubba finished to a 2nd round of uproarious laughter. "For Christ's sake, Bubba. You ain't got a lick of sense!" Gomez wiped a tear of laughter from his eye and proceeded to leave he and Don in charge while he and Tish left for the day.
They got into the SUV and headed towards the Blue Bayou Creole restaurant. Most quaint and quirky hometowns have that one little restaurant everyone loves. The Blue Bayou was Eerie, Indiana's version. The seafood buffet on Friday nights were always a hit. As much as Tish & Gomez were home bodies? They did enjoy an occasional night at the Blue Bayou.
Bubba and Don drank coffee and told more dirty jokes. Swinging by Ol Shiloh's place a few times tonight will help break up the monotony. Poor ol bastard didn't mean any harm. He was just messed up in the head. Kids with all black eyes? What the hell was that all about, anyway?
Ol Shiloh really wanted to believe Tish. He really did. He knew, deep down inside, if Ginny, Craig and the boys at Eerie PD couldn't help him? No one could. Well, he has his shot gun on the rack, but who would threaten to shoot children? He saw enough of that shit cleaning out villages of their denizens back in jungle. He never intended to live that kind of hell, again. Strange looking kids or not, they still at least looked like kids. He just couldn't bring himself to shoot a child.
He was nodding off in his recliner. The sun was dipping below the horizon.
Tish & Gomez sat and ate and caught up with the day's activities. "Ol Shiloh was really that scared, huh?" Gomez asked Tish in a low voice so others couldn't overhear. "Yeah. Yeah, he was. It was unsettling." Tish was clearly still bothered. "I'll remind Don later on tonight when I check in, I promise." Gomez reassured. "Please, do. I've never heard fear in his voice before. It's really got me shook." Tish slowly relaxed and let the stress melt away as she took another spoonful of gumbo. "Consider it done." Gomez smiled and began eating as well.
Was it a knock? He couldn't be sure. The house was dark but Shiloh knew his own home. He slowly got up from the recliner and proceeded to the door. Could it be? He hoped not. Even as much as he knew those little demons were going to return? He had really hoped he'd be wrong. One quick look through the glass of the wooden door proved he was not. There they were: same dark-haired pale boy and girl but there was something different this time. There was a 3rd party out there but the darkness prevented him from making out who it was. This 3rd party was taller and bigger, clearly an adult but that was the only clear thing.
"Please, Shiloh, let us in. We're cold. We're hungry. Our mother is worried." Both children said in unison. The 3rd party waited in the wings. "I don't know you little mother fuckers so how did you know my name?" Shiloh raged. He was still scared but more angry now.
"Rosie told us." Both children simultaneously chirped happily.
Wait, what? Rosie? Rosie as in my Rosie? The Rosie I cruelly lost just 4 January's ago? "ROSIE? What the hell you mean Rosie?" Ol Shiloh thought that he'd lost what little mind he had left. Just then? Something happened that flipped Ol Shiloh's world upside down.
"Shiloh Shenandoah? Is that you, my love?" Rosie. It was Rosie. Bigger than shit, it was his beloved wife of over 50 years. How, though? It couldn't be. He saw her on the slab in the morgue when he had to identify her. It couldn't be. She was 4 years in the ground! Yet, there she stood behind the black eyed children looking at him with the same set of obsidian black eyes.
"Rosie? That can't be you. You died a month after our 50th wedding anniversary! You've been gone 4 years!" Ol Shiloh's mind was reeling and he didn't know what to do.
"Don't you love me, anymore, my dear? I thought you'd be so happy to see me." Rosie smiled a smile that would have otherwise been beautiful if it weren't sitting below 2 pitch black eyes.
"Don't ask silly questions, Rosie. You're the only one for me. You always have been. You always will be." Shiloh was opening the screen door. The dark-haired pale children grabbed the storm door from the other side and pulled, Rosie with her sinister grin and black eyes moved forward.
"Let us in, Shiloh." The children and Rosie crossed the threshold and, immediately afterwards? Shiloh let out a scream coming from the death throws. As painful as it was? At least the ripping out of his throat by the children's mouths was, mercifully, quick.
"Bubba! You are one redneck, peckerwood cracker!" Don rolled his eyes as he drove along at a steady pace patrolling. "You know I'm right! You just don't want to admit it!" Bubba was getting equally irritated with Don in his response. Don's wife, Allison, was, indeed, Tish's little sister. She was also "the town doorknob" as Old Shiloh not so eloquently called her. She was well known to everyone as Eerie's town slut even though she married Don 10 years ago. Guess it's true what the song says, you can't turn a ho into a housewife.
"Dude, I know you love her but she's always gonna be the town whore, Man" Bubba tried backpedaling at least some.
"Will you shut up? Will you just shut the fuck up? I'm tired of hearing this shit!" Don lost it and blew up on Bubba. Bubba, in turn, shut down and stopped speaking.
They rolled onto James Dean Boulevard and proceeded to Ol Shiloh's place. It was dark, lonely and isolated. Shiloh was never one for neighbors, but something seemed even more off. Something just didn't seem right. Isn't that what Tish described earlier when Shiloh spoke to her on the phone? She said she heard fear. They'd never known Ol Shiloh to be fearful. Today? All of that changed.
Don & Bubba slowly crept up Shiloh's long driveway. Don tried rolling the spotlight on the cruiser up onto Shiloh's front porch. It was still a weak beam of light but was getting brighter. "What the fuck?" Don hit the brakes. "What is it?" Bubba looked at Don like he was absolutely crazy. "The door is open. Actually? Both of them are." Don shone the spotlight onto the open screen and wooden doors. They could tell both doors were open but could see nothing else due to the darkness.
"I don't like this, Bubba." Don was intrepid and softly pressed on the accelerator.
"Don, should we call Tish & Gomez? I mean, I know it's their night out but..." Bubba trailed off.
They sat in the driveway next to Ol Shiloh's porch. Other than both front doors being open? They couldn't see a thing.
Don and Bubba slowly approached the porch, guns drawn. It was dark but something was lying just inside the open front doors. As they advanced? It was boots. Jump boots that had a high polish shine. Those boots were connected to legs. Shiloh's legs.
"Jesus Christ, call for a bus!" Don yelled for Bubba to radio in for an ambulance.
Shiloh laid at the entrance to his home, flat on his back, staring with dead cold wide open eyes straight to and through the ceiling. A look of abject horror plastered all over his face. His throat was ripped out almost to his spinal cord.
"Oh, God, I'm gonna puke!" Bubba ran back outside where the evening's coffee went all over the sidewalk.
"Call the coroner, too. This is gonna be a God damn circus!" Don didn't attempt to get a pulse considering Shiloh's carotid arteries and jugular veins had been viciously ripped out.
Bubba wiped his mouth and started calling all of the necessary people. Don stood next to Shiloh with his hands holding his head in disbelief.
"Our 1st kill was a success." The dark-haired pale boy said to the creature that looked like Rosie.
"It was this time. We must improve. We must refine. If we don't evolve? We wither and die. What would the point be to just stop at the 1st kill? The colony could never advance if we never pursued other avenues to further our agenda." The creature that looked like Rosie opined.
The dark-haired pale boy and girl nodded in sync with everything the creature that looked like Rosie said. Is this how their occupation of Terra was really going to commence? Given everything the Alliance taught them? They thought the humans would be more violent and aggressive. Perhaps? The distant study of the Terrestrials proved incorrect in practice in comparison to theory. Perhaps the Terrestrials will gladly cease resistance when they realize just how futile it will be.

Their eyes were black, not just the pupil. The Iris, cornea, and pupil were all black but not just any black. The deepest black, pure obsidian. The answers to all of the galaxy's most burning questions were in those pitch black bottomless depth eyes. "Shiloh Svengaard, let us IN!" both children stared into Shiloh's pale milky blue eyes as he stared back into their black ones. "NO. NO, NOW GO AWAY!" Shiloh slammed the wooden door and locked it. He watched as the black eyed children walked to the end of his driveway and onto James Dean Boulevard. They went off into the night and Ol Shiloh didn't see them anymore. "So, you thought they'd return?" Tish was a tad overwhelmed. Ol Shiloh had audio and visual hallucinations but it was always fellow soldiers, the Viet Cong or the North Vietnamese Army. It sure as hell wasn't black eyed tweens. "Ginny girl, I don't think they'll return. I know it. They're coming for me. I know they are." Delusions of persecution certainly isn't anything new to Tish when it came to Ol Shiloh but this was different. Shiloh was full of doubt and self defeat. Never in his life had Ol Shiloh backed down from a fight. This? This was uncharted territory. "Want Don to swing by on patrol tonight? Craig and I are having a lil evening out so he won't be on. Don would be glad to do it, Shiloh. Really." Comforting and reassuring Ol Shiloh was Tish's main concern at the moment. "Yeah, Ginny Girl. Have Don cruise by my place if he would. Maybe a patrol car will keep these evil fucking little bastards away from me and my house. Best part of those lil sons a bitches dripped down their Mama's leg when she was getting pregnant with 'em!" Ol Shiloh always had a way with words. "Okay. I'll tell him but remember to use the non emergency line next time, Shiloh. Can't tie 911 up with non emergent calls." Tish gently scolded. "Fuck that non emergency number, Ginny girl! It prompts me to press 1 for English and 2 for the ESPENOIL (pronounced ESPN OIL) and bullshit! I just call 911 and get ahold of you!" Shiloh wasn't about to call an automated line. That just wasn't how he did things. Tish was the one that could handle his problems. She was the good sister. "Okay, okay, Shiloh. I'll tell Don. You just take it from me. Rose wouldn't want to see you like this." Tish was truly concerned. "Ginny girl, my Rosie can't see anything anymore." And with that? He hung up the phone. The guys were still hanging out in the office, albeit much quieter. "Sorry 'bout that. We didn't know you were on the phone. We wouldn't have been telling jokes if we knew you were on the phone." Gomez sheepishly looked down at the table where he was seated with 2 other deputies, Don & Bubba. "It wouldn't have mattered. Ol Shiloh was ranting so much he didn't even hear you guys." Tish dismissed. "Ol Shiloh? What put a hair across his ass?" Don asked. "He said 2 kids came by last night about an hour after dark, wanting to be let in the house. He was uncharacteristically afraid. He said they just kept repeating to let them in so they could call their mother. He felt something was off, something wasn't right." Tish trailed off. "Kids? Whose kids?" Gomez spoke up. "He didn't know. He even asked the kids who their parents were but they just kept asking to come in the house." Tish replied. "Anyway, he said when he really got scared was when both kids looked up at him and their eyes were black. Their eyes were completely black." Tish kept relaying everything Ol Shiloh told her. Gomez, Don & Bubba looked at her as if she'd grown a 2nd head. "I'm just telling you what he said." Tish defended. "When he saw those black eyes? He panicked, slammed and locked the wooden door and told them to go away. They did." Tish finished. "So what does Lt. Dan want us to do with a couple of kids with colored contacts pranking the local crazy Vietnam Vet?" Don sighed. "I offered for you to swing by his place on patrol tonight. He was pleased with that." Tish informed. "FFS. Fine. Bubba and I can swing by a few times tonight as long as it shuts that old crazy bastard up." Don resigned to his fate. "You know, Don? No one will ever accuse you of being too caring." Tish just rolled her eyes. "BTW? What was the joke you guys were laughing at?" Tish suddenly remembered. "There was a young Indian warrior who asked the tribe's chief one day how he decided on all of the babies' names when they were born since he was given the honor of naming all of the children"... Bubba began. "He said, "My son, if there is an eagle flying over when a child is being born? I call that child Eagle Flying Over. If there is snow gently falling when a child is being born? I call that child Snow Gently Falling, but tell me, Two Dogs Fucking, why do you ask?" Bubba finished to a 2nd round of uproarious laughter. "For Christ's sake, Bubba. You ain't got a lick of sense!" Gomez wiped a tear of laughter from his eye and proceeded to leave he and Don in charge while he and Tish left for the day.
They got into the SUV and headed towards the Blue Bayou Creole restaurant. Most quaint and quirky hometowns have that one little restaurant everyone loves. The Blue Bayou was Eerie, Indiana's version. The seafood buffet on Friday nights were always a hit. As much as Tish & Gomez were home bodies? They did enjoy an occasional night at the Blue Bayou.
Bubba and Don drank coffee and told more dirty jokes. Swinging by Ol Shiloh's place a few times tonight will help break up the monotony. Poor ol bastard didn't mean any harm. He was just messed up in the head. Kids with all black eyes? What the hell was that all about, anyway?
Ol Shiloh really wanted to believe Tish. He really did. He knew, deep down inside, if Ginny, Craig and the boys at Eerie PD couldn't help him? No one could. Well, he has his shot gun on the rack, but who would threaten to shoot children? He saw enough of that shit cleaning out villages of their denizens back in jungle. He never intended to live that kind of hell, again. Strange looking kids or not, they still at least looked like kids. He just couldn't bring himself to shoot a child.
He was nodding off in his recliner. The sun was dipping below the horizon.
Tish & Gomez sat and ate and caught up with the day's activities. "Ol Shiloh was really that scared, huh?" Gomez asked Tish in a low voice so others couldn't overhear. "Yeah. Yeah, he was. It was unsettling." Tish was clearly still bothered. "I'll remind Don later on tonight when I check in, I promise." Gomez reassured. "Please, do. I've never heard fear in his voice before. It's really got me shook." Tish slowly relaxed and let the stress melt away as she took another spoonful of gumbo. "Consider it done." Gomez smiled and began eating as well.
Was it a knock? He couldn't be sure. The house was dark but Shiloh knew his own home. He slowly got up from the recliner and proceeded to the door. Could it be? He hoped not. Even as much as he knew those little demons were going to return? He had really hoped he'd be wrong. One quick look through the glass of the wooden door proved he was not. There they were: same dark-haired pale boy and girl but there was something different this time. There was a 3rd party out there but the darkness prevented him from making out who it was. This 3rd party was taller and bigger, clearly an adult but that was the only clear thing.
"Please, Shiloh, let us in. We're cold. We're hungry. Our mother is worried." Both children said in unison. The 3rd party waited in the wings. "I don't know you little mother fuckers so how did you know my name?" Shiloh raged. He was still scared but more angry now.
"Rosie told us." Both children simultaneously chirped happily.
Wait, what? Rosie? Rosie as in my Rosie? The Rosie I cruelly lost just 4 January's ago? "ROSIE? What the hell you mean Rosie?" Ol Shiloh thought that he'd lost what little mind he had left. Just then? Something happened that flipped Ol Shiloh's world upside down.
"Shiloh Shenandoah? Is that you, my love?" Rosie. It was Rosie. Bigger than shit, it was his beloved wife of over 50 years. How, though? It couldn't be. He saw her on the slab in the morgue when he had to identify her. It couldn't be. She was 4 years in the ground! Yet, there she stood behind the black eyed children looking at him with the same set of obsidian black eyes.
"Rosie? That can't be you. You died a month after our 50th wedding anniversary! You've been gone 4 years!" Ol Shiloh's mind was reeling and he didn't know what to do.
"Don't you love me, anymore, my dear? I thought you'd be so happy to see me." Rosie smiled a smile that would have otherwise been beautiful if it weren't sitting below 2 pitch black eyes.
"Don't ask silly questions, Rosie. You're the only one for me. You always have been. You always will be." Shiloh was opening the screen door. The dark-haired pale children grabbed the storm door from the other side and pulled, Rosie with her sinister grin and black eyes moved forward.
"Let us in, Shiloh." The children and Rosie crossed the threshold and, immediately afterwards? Shiloh let out a scream coming from the death throws. As painful as it was? At least the ripping out of his throat by the children's mouths was, mercifully, quick.
"Bubba! You are one redneck, peckerwood cracker!" Don rolled his eyes as he drove along at a steady pace patrolling. "You know I'm right! You just don't want to admit it!" Bubba was getting equally irritated with Don in his response. Don's wife, Allison, was, indeed, Tish's little sister. She was also "the town doorknob" as Old Shiloh not so eloquently called her. She was well known to everyone as Eerie's town slut even though she married Don 10 years ago. Guess it's true what the song says, you can't turn a ho into a housewife.
"Dude, I know you love her but she's always gonna be the town whore, Man" Bubba tried backpedaling at least some.
"Will you shut up? Will you just shut the fuck up? I'm tired of hearing this shit!" Don lost it and blew up on Bubba. Bubba, in turn, shut down and stopped speaking.
They rolled onto James Dean Boulevard and proceeded to Ol Shiloh's place. It was dark, lonely and isolated. Shiloh was never one for neighbors, but something seemed even more off. Something just didn't seem right. Isn't that what Tish described earlier when Shiloh spoke to her on the phone? She said she heard fear. They'd never known Ol Shiloh to be fearful. Today? All of that changed.
Don & Bubba slowly crept up Shiloh's long driveway. Don tried rolling the spotlight on the cruiser up onto Shiloh's front porch. It was still a weak beam of light but was getting brighter. "What the fuck?" Don hit the brakes. "What is it?" Bubba looked at Don like he was absolutely crazy. "The door is open. Actually? Both of them are." Don shone the spotlight onto the open screen and wooden doors. They could tell both doors were open but could see nothing else due to the darkness.
"I don't like this, Bubba." Don was intrepid and softly pressed on the accelerator.
"Don, should we call Tish & Gomez? I mean, I know it's their night out but..." Bubba trailed off.
They sat in the driveway next to Ol Shiloh's porch. Other than both front doors being open? They couldn't see a thing.
Don and Bubba slowly approached the porch, guns drawn. It was dark but something was lying just inside the open front doors. As they advanced? It was boots. Jump boots that had a high polish shine. Those boots were connected to legs. Shiloh's legs.
"Jesus Christ, call for a bus!" Don yelled for Bubba to radio in for an ambulance.
Shiloh laid at the entrance to his home, flat on his back, staring with dead cold wide open eyes straight to and through the ceiling. A look of abject horror plastered all over his face. His throat was ripped out almost to his spinal cord.
"Oh, God, I'm gonna puke!" Bubba ran back outside where the evening's coffee went all over the sidewalk.
"Call the coroner, too. This is gonna be a God damn circus!" Don didn't attempt to get a pulse considering Shiloh's carotid arteries and jugular veins had been viciously ripped out.
Bubba wiped his mouth and started calling all of the necessary people. Don stood next to Shiloh with his hands holding his head in disbelief.
"Our 1st kill was a success." The dark-haired pale boy said to the creature that looked like Rosie.
"It was this time. We must improve. We must refine. If we don't evolve? We wither and die. What would the point be to just stop at the 1st kill? The colony could never advance if we never pursued other avenues to further our agenda." The creature that looked like Rosie opined.
The dark-haired pale boy and girl nodded in sync with everything the creature that looked like Rosie said. Is this how their occupation of Terra was really going to commence? Given everything the Alliance taught them? They thought the humans would be more violent and aggressive. Perhaps? The distant study of the Terrestrials proved incorrect in practice in comparison to theory. Perhaps the Terrestrials will gladly cease resistance when they realize just how futile it will be.
PART 1: The Windows to the Soul: Shiloh's final battle END
2023.06.04 11:59 A_J-thefool A Heart's Memory
I (24M), let's call me J, met M (23) on Bumble. From the beginning, there was something enchanting about her. Despite our conversations being fairly ordinary, I found myself having an incredible time. Whenever she took a while to text back, I eagerly awaited her response. And when her message finally arrived, it brought a smile to my face, making me feel like a complete idiot. I couldn't stop thinking about how genuine, caring, beautiful, and cute she seemed.
After a couple of months of talking, she decided to visit my country for a pre-planned vacation. It felt like fate had intervened. Meeting her in person only intensified my enchantment. She was even more stunning than her pictures. I vividly remember her sweet voice, caring eyes, and alluring perfume. When she hugged me first, my heart skipped a beat. Though I had to send her back to her hotel since I could only meet her at night, I felt both sad that we had to part so soon and grateful for that she met me even if it late.
The next day, I woke up with childlike excitement, eagerly awaiting her arrival. I spent the day waiting for her, buying flowers and a cake to celebrate her upcoming birthday, even though it was still a couple of months away. Finally, she arrived, we shared some cake and we sat on the same bed, sharing random facts about ourselves. She was incredibly honest and open, creating an environment where I felt completely unjudged. Every time she covered her mouth while laughing, it only made me think how cute she was.
We lay down together on the small bed, gazing into each other's eyes. I remember how she asked me to tickle her arms as we cuddled. Eventually, she fell asleep in my arms, and all I could think about was how lucky I was to have met her and how beautiful she looked. Her silky hair felt amazing as I ran my fingers through it. Even in her pajamas, she looked adorable. Every kiss we shared is etched in my memory.
I recall the moment when, caught off guard, I said "I love you." I felt a mix of surprise and fear, but seeing her smile and hold me tighter brought immense relief and happiness. Waking up next to her, knowing it wasn't a dream, filled me with elation. Watching her get ready for our date gave me butterflies, and I felt incredibly special when she allowed me to hold her hand in public, despite her discomfort with public displays of affection. I thought she looked beautiful in every outfit she chose while we shopped.
As the time came for us to return to our hotel, I remember the sadness in her eyes. She sat on my lap, hugging me tightly, asking me to stay a little longer. It was when I was leaving that she uttered the words "I love you" for the first time, and it felt like I was in heaven. After she told me she wasn't sure yet I made the decision to wait until she was ready to officially be my significant other. I remember how I spontaneously canceled my flight and told the taxi to go back to the hotel so I could spend more time with her. Seeing the surprise on her face when I returned warmed my heart, and I cherished every moment, staying up for as long as I could so I would never forget the sensation of her in my arms.
Eventually, the time came for her vacation to end, and she had to return to her home country. I made plans to visit her as soon as I had the opportunity. However, over time, her texts became less frequent, and my heart shattered when she said she couldn't give me the answer I hoped for. Despite that, I promised to wait for her, no matter how long it took. Sadly, our communication dwindled until we practically stopped talking altogether.
Now, after six months, every day brings painful memories. My heart cracks a little more with each recollection. The desire to reach out to her one more time consumes me. I'm losing hope, and the despair grows because deep down, I know I will never be able to forget...

2023.06.04 11:51 NOV4K88 AirPods Max Died After 2 Years of Use
A couple of days ago, my AirPods Max stopped working all of a sudden, without any sign before that pointing out that something could be wrong. I placed them over my ears, they connected to my iPhone, and then a strange sound (a 1-second-long crackling sound) came from the left earpad, and the headphones disconnected from the iPhone. I tried connecting them manually several times, and they would connect for a split second and then disconnect. And after that, they would refuse to connect again - no matter what I tried (and I tried everything).
First, I tried restarting them and then resetting them (as per Apple's support docs), returning them to their factory settings. Tried charging them for 15 hours. And also, I tried removing the earpads and cleaning out the headband's connectors. Nothing worked.
In the end - here's what's happening now. Once I move them close to my iPhone, I see that prompt to connect the headphones. I tap on 'Next,' and then the instructions say to press the button on the right earpiece for 5 seconds. I keep doing that, and the headphones just won't connect. There's also no way to connect them manually to my iPhone or MacBook. 🤔
Has something like this happened to you? What was the thing that worked when you experienced connectivity issues with your AirPods Max?
Oh, and yeah - there are no Apple Stores in my country, just authorized service shops. I went to one, and the guy there said it's $50 for them just to diagnose a problem. However, repairing them would probably cost $300+, so it's better to buy something new. 🤨

2023.06.04 11:43 _justbeingnosy_ creepy behaviour or am i reading into it?
so i (17f) have an anxiety disorder and i can’t be by myself, because of this i spend a lot of time with family friends. at least once a week i go over to a specific family friends house, and ‘derek’ (fake name) is usually the one taking care of me/spending time with me. derek does have a daughter a year older than me that i’m really good friends with but she’s usually working when i go over so i only see her from time to time. i’m not sure of his precise age but he’s at least in his late 50s.
now, derek is trusted by my mom but i’ve always had a slightly uncomfortable feeling when i’m around him ever since i’ve know him, but i just put it down to me being an anxious person.
even before i started going over there, some of his behaviour was starting to unsettle me. he would make jokes about getting in the shower with me or my sister (19) and helping us wash our backs (??) if we were showering when he came over to our house to fix stuff, at a wedding he told me i ‘cleaned up nice’ and when he hugged me, his hand was pretty low on my back, not low enough to touch something, but low enough that i wasn’t sure if he was going to.
now i see him at least once a week, the comments and touches have increased and i don’t know if i’m blowing it out of proportion.
i was having a serious conversation with him about my anxiety and how i get scared when my heart rate gets high and he cut in, asking me what i would do if a boy wanted to have sex with me and i was a bit taken back but i just made a joke about having a defibrillator on hand. i brought a dress from a charity shop and he kept incessantly calling it a ‘sexy, slinky’ dress even though it was a pretty regular dress. he’s definitely made other sexual references that i can’t remember now but they all gave me an uneasy feeling. if i go over with my mid drift out, he always touches it and makes a ‘playful’ comment about how i can’t have my mid drift out and not expect it to me touched (i’ve literally started going out of my way to make sure my belly is covered when i go over). he tickles me sometimes and has ‘playfully’ slapped my bum like once or twice, and last time his hand was on my ankle/lower calf like rubbing it (??) i can’t remember why it was there in the first place, but i started feeling uneasy when he was rubbing it but not when he just had his hand on it so i must’ve pointed at something on my leg (??idk i really can’t remember) - bare in mind that he also acts this way with his own daughter, so i don’t know if this is just how he acts and i’m not used to it?? he’s called himself my (self proclaimed) ‘adoptive father’.
he’s had…opportunities to do something bad to me, but he doesn’t. he drives me places, just him and i in the car, he sits with me at his house and at mine (again, just us) and nothing further than what i’ve described ever happens. he’s helped me through panic attacks but i just always have this underlying slight unease with him when i think about spending time with him, even though i do it every week.
i can’t talk to my mom about this, mainly because if i’m taking everything the wrong way, derek and his family will be incredibly offended, i won’t be able to see his daughter or wife who i’m friends with, derek will stop helping us out with stuff that breaks in our house and also i won’t have anywhere to go that day of the week. i just don’t know what dot do, if i’m overthinking it and reading into it too much or what… idk just need some advice
if you read all of that, thank you! if you didn’t- TL;DR: i rely on family friend ‘derek’ to look after me one day a week and he consistently makes inappropriate comments and touches that make me uncomfortable, even though he acts that way with his daughter.

i was having a serious conversation with him about my anxiety and how i get scared when my heart rate gets high and he cut in, asking me what i would do if a boy wanted to have sex with me and i was a bit taken back but i just made a joke about having a defibrillator on hand. i brought a dress from a charity shop and he kept incessantly calling it a ‘sexy, slinky’ dress even though it was a pretty regular dress. he’s definitely made other sexual references that i can’t remember now but they all gave me an uneasy feeling. if i go over with my mid drift out, he always touches it and makes a ‘playful’ comment about how i can’t have my mid drift out and not expect it to me touched (i’ve literally started going out of my way to make sure my belly is covered when i go over). he tickles me sometimes and has ‘playfully’ slapped my bum like once or twice, and last time his hand was on my ankle/lower calf like rubbing it (??) i can’t remember why it was there in the first place, but i started feeling uneasy when he was rubbing it but not when he just had his hand on it so i must’ve pointed at something on my leg (??idk i really can’t remember) - bare in mind that he also acts this way with his own daughter, so i don’t know if this is just how he acts and i’m not used to it?? he’s called himself my (self proclaimed) ‘adoptive father’.
he’s had…opportunities to do something bad to me, but he doesn’t. he drives me places, just him and i in the car, he sits with me at his house and at mine (again, just us) and nothing further than what i’ve described ever happens. he’s helped me through panic attacks but i just always have this underlying slight unease with him when i think about spending time with him, even though i do it every week.
i can’t talk to my mom about this, mainly because if i’m taking everything the wrong way, derek and his family will be incredibly offended, i won’t be able to see his daughter or wife who i’m friends with, derek will stop helping us out with stuff that breaks in our house and also i won’t have anywhere to go that day of the week. i just don’t know what dot do, if i’m overthinking it and reading into it too much or what… idk just need some advice
if you read all of that, thank you! if you didn’t- TL;DR: i rely on family friend ‘derek’ to look after me one day a week and he consistently makes inappropriate comments and touches that make me uncomfortable, even though he acts that way with his daughter.

now, derek is trusted by my mom but i’ve always had a slightly uncomfortable feeling when i’m around him ever since i’ve know him, but i just put it down to me being an anxious person.

Just looking for Coromon and the games in the title and Paypal (my region is EU), nothing else. If you offer a huge list of games or anything that's not in the title or on my wishlist you might get blocked for not having basic reading comprehension
I know Coromon is in a pricy build your own bundle rn so could do multiple smaller games for it but no ridiculous offers please
https://www.fanatical.com/en/pick-and-mix/diamond-collection-build-your-own-bundle
Only interested in Paypal offers and games in the title don't comment if you don't have either to offer. For AAA games I'm only taking Paypal offers, not trades Any comments with lists of random games I likely already own will be ignored and possibly blocked. My region is EU, if you are outside of EU you have to cover Paypal fees. I do not have a set price for anything, if you ask "how much for" you'll be asked if you have a price in mind.

Does anyone know what accessories are possible to mount to the "small" Dewalt trimmer.
The guys in the hardware shop had no idea and i am having a hard time finding something online, so i am now trying a more trustworthy source.
I only need it for my own garden, so didn't think to get the flexvolt version. Did i make a huge mistake getting the small one?

2023.06.04 10:46 flowerlegoheaded Gusto ko na ng sariling bahay.
TLDR: I'm tired of living in a small house, sleeping with 3 people in a bedroom, and not having privacy.
Ever since my parents got married 28 years ago, they've been living with my grandparents. My older brother (28) and I (23) have lived here our whole lives.
The main reason why my mom chose to stay with her parents was because none of her siblings could live with them. Their oldest has been working abroad since he was 19. The two other siblings have moved out with their own families.
When my brother and I were kids, siguro okay pa yung space sa bahay kasi we were still kids and could just stay in one room with our parents. Pero hanggang ngayon, we still have to sleep in one room.
The house had only 2 bedrooms originally, but another one was built a few years back for me because I was becoming a "dalaga" na. However, my lola always wanted to sleep in my bedroom because she didn't want to sleep in the same room with my lolo anymore, for reasons I do not know. So 1 for my lolo, 1 for my parents and brother, and 1 for me and my lola. Being in my room, she would always go through my things. She would go through my bags. She would go through my wallet. She would try to see what's inside my parcels. She would go through my documents. I felt like I have no right to ask her to stop doing it thought, kasi nga naman bahay niya to. So I just chose to move back to my parent's room.
But even in my parent's room, wala pa rin kaming privacy. She would open our door without knocking. She would get mad if the door was locked. She would go inside to get things. Even my mom doesn't know what to say anymore.
Sobrang uncomfortable na rin to sleep in one room with my parents and brother because we could all see what one is doing. Masikip. Walang privacy.
Recently, my brother and his fiancé have secured a lot for a house na and I'm really happy for him, though around 2-3 years pa before he could move out. I know he's been very uncomfortable na rin.
Ako naman, I just graduated last year and although may work na, 'di pa rin naman sapat to get my own place or one for my family. But I know I will be able to after working hard for a few more years.
I have so much more to say about this pero ito na lang muna... I just wanted to rant because I'm just really tired of this set up.

2023.06.04 10:39 BrandonJoseph10 My Honest Thoughts On Online Companion Services In Bangkok And Pattaya
Hello Fellow Peeps,
Over the past few weeks, my DM is flooded by messages asking for my recommendations on ahem ahem, for a lack of better word, companion services that are available online.
Some of the folks were disappointed with the online companions they hired. They turned out to be totally old, decrepit, and at times, some ladies were totally different from the pictures.
I've been dabbling in this "rent online gf" thing for more than a decade in Thailand, so, I decided to give my honest opinion about the girls from the most popular online services.
I've blown away hundreds of thousands of baht (without getting broke) on these companions so you can say I know what I'm talking about.
I'll specifically name the women's screen names that you should keep away from. The reasons are two - they've bad attitude and second, they don't look like in the pictures.
I'll begin with the most widely used portal - Smooci
I've been using smooci since 2019, the year of it's launch. And I probably had 100-110 women from that site. It was good back then. But today it has become a cesspool of decrepit and rundown females.
They either have gotten old or there are some bad seeds there that can make your time miserable.
Here are the women in smooci to avoid. These are all the screen names in their profile -
Also, in smooci, all the reviews and ratings are manipulated.
Almost all the females have photoshopped or old pics. Choosing a girl online is not about choosing the best, it's like voting, choosing the least worse politician for the president.
The rest of the females that I had from smooci were nice. Being polite, a please, a thank you, and not jumping on them like a caveman Neanderthal will earn you browny points.
But the key to having a good time is to have low expectations in the looks department.
Bangkok Escort Dot Com
This is the oldest, and as far as my knowledge goes, the first online companion portal in Thailand.
I have been a heavy user of this site, and it's my back up plan if I don't get a companion that I am looking for.
Almost all the ladies I had from this site were a cut above in the services department.
The lady who handles the communication, Maya, is a gem. She asks relevant questions, that can go into deep details and recommends you a girl. Do listen to her.
She's also very quick and responsive over the email.
However, there's a catch. Priya is also associated with this site.
Absolute Angels Bangkok Dot Com
Well, I've mixed opinions about this agency because I've had both best and worst companions from this site. They've got pretty girls. But yes, the pics are heavily photoshopped.
Plus, about 90% of the girls in that site are not available.
The person, Angie, with whom you'll communicate with if you choose to use the site, has a temper. She doesn't like questions.
My pick from the site is Rita. But mind you, she is in the business from 2014. So, she's certainly not 25 as her profile says. Also, her English is non-existent at best. Only hab, no hab, same same.
But she is total delight when she opens up between the sheets.
Ying, Alice, Nina, and Ray are also good lays. Avoid the rest of them, especially the VIP ones (more on it later).
Luxury Thai Models Dot Com
If you can't shell out 8-10K thb for 3-4 hours of companionship, then avoid this site. However, this is the second best site in Thailand that I've used.
I've used their models belonging to both the categories - VIP and Platinum, and was never disappointed, except once when an hour into the act, her period started. (strange)
You can blindly pick any girl belonging to VIP category, especially Jessica, Pinky, and Rita. These are classy women, speak great english, and boy-o-boy, don't they know how to press a man's buttons!
In the platinum category Lisa and Olivia are my favorites.
BKK Escort Service Dot Com
My favorite, now this site is a notch above than luxury thai models. However, this site appeals to people who like fair skinned Thai women.
Their primary clienteles are Arabs and Indians, who pay premium for fair skinned females. And that's the reason why they've priced themselves too high to ween out the time wasters.
Expensive, but never disappointing. This agency is quite new to scene post covid. So, I've used them not many times, at max 7 as far as I can remember. Do eenie minnie mee mow, and take your pick.
The guy Michael whom you'll interact with knows these ladies inside out.
But there's only one problem. Not all the girls are available every day.
The girls in the site are sort of those car models or bike models, so many of them are always busy.
You can either do advanced booking or Michael will give you a list of available girls if you're looking for prompt booking.
But if you are staying in a run down hotel, these ladies might refuse.
Don't Hire Girls Marked As VIP
Well here's the thing. VIP models need a lot of pampering. In my experience, the agency will refuse a VIP girl booking if you want to have 2-3 hours of fun.
These girls generally go for longer bookings, especially 6 hours and above.
It's because they're looking for a nice time. They want shopping, they want fine dining, and they also like to chit chat.
So, on top of paying premium to them, you'll also have to spend on entertaining them.
Now don't get me wrong if i say don't hire them. I'm the one who likes a good lay more than spending time with the girl in a restaurant or eating sushi or talking how much her mom weighs.
If you're into "finding deep connection" kind of experience, then please go for it. But I think no woman in this world deserves so much of your money, time, and attention.
What About Other Agencies
Now there are tons of online agencies in Bangkok. New bangkok escort, escortsbkk, pure bangkok escorts, bkk massage etc. If you pay 1500 baht extra, the girls will hop on to a taxi and come to pattaya right at your hotel or condo's door step.
Here's what I've learned, if you're hiring online, there's always an element of uncertainty. There's always a risk of not getting what you're paying for.
But there's one thing that you can't take away, there's security. If you don't like the girl, then pay them 1000 thb as cancellation fees and off they go.
There's no drama, there's no tantrums. Plus, you've the agency to rely upon if something goes wrong.
I'd rather recommend always calling the agency and talk to the operator if you're hiring from the agency the first time.
By speaking with them you'll get the vibe of what the agency is all about and if they're acting honest.
However, I've been disappointed more by freelancers and bar girls rather than from the girls online.
They might look a bit different, but they won't rob you of your peace and sleep.
Now guys who were messaging me, please stop flooding my DM. It's a humble polite request. Thank you.
And no, I don't have any experience in Thai cupid, Thai friendly, or tinder.

Here are the women in smooci to avoid. These are all the screen names in their profile -
- Julia - Her photos are from 2015. I never hired her, my friend did. He had to cut short the booking.
- Priya - Heavily photoshopped, now she has bad wrinkles. Bad breath too. But she is compliant. Will take any form pose or shape you want.
- Vivian - Bad behavior and totally disastrous
- Mimee - Fat, dense bush, and doesn't provide the services mentioned in the profile
- Nadia - Very old pics. Also, she has a bit of temper. Can't take humor in a humorous way
- Baro - Heavily photoshopped pics. You'll be disappointed when she shows up. Plus, the silicon tits are too hard. She needs a replacement, soon. But she is a great lay if you ignore these.
- Orange - Her profile age says she's 37. But she is at least 45.
- Sand - Disastrous.
- Callista - She plays with her phone all the time. Doesn't speak even basic English.
- Malin - Hire only if you're into grannies
- Bania - Arrogant and bad attitude. Also, if you hire her for more than two hours, she asks for food and beer.
- Jnet - She has an air about herself. Treats you like a peasant and always glued to the phone.
Also, in smooci, all the reviews and ratings are manipulated.

Now don't get me wrong if i say don't hire them. I'm the one who likes a good lay more than spending time with the girl in a restaurant or eating sushi or talking how much her mom weighs.
If you're into "finding deep connection" kind of experience, then please go for it. But I think no woman in this world deserves so much of your money, time, and attention.
What About Other Agencies
Now there are tons of online agencies in Bangkok. New bangkok escort, escortsbkk, pure bangkok escorts, bkk massage etc. If you pay 1500 baht extra, the girls will hop on to a taxi and come to pattaya right at your hotel or condo's door step.
Here's what I've learned, if you're hiring online, there's always an element of uncertainty. There's always a risk of not getting what you're paying for.
But there's one thing that you can't take away, there's security. If you don't like the girl, then pay them 1000 thb as cancellation fees and off they go.
There's no drama, there's no tantrums. Plus, you've the agency to rely upon if something goes wrong.
I'd rather recommend always calling the agency and talk to the operator if you're hiring from the agency the first time.
By speaking with them you'll get the vibe of what the agency is all about and if they're acting honest.
However, I've been disappointed more by freelancers and bar girls rather than from the girls online.
They might look a bit different, but they won't rob you of your peace and sleep.
Now guys who were messaging me, please stop flooding my DM. It's a humble polite request. Thank you.
And no, I don't have any experience in Thai cupid, Thai friendly, or tinder.
2023.06.04 10:34 Wonderful-Pudding820 AITA?
When I was seven, I had to quit sport due to a medical condition I had developed. As I was temporarily doing less exercise while looking for a new sport to try, my mother started commenting on my body even when it wasn't necessary. She's the type of mother that wouldn't buy sweets or snacks so that I didn't get "fat" but she bought them for my sister and hid them. At school I was the only one who had fruit as a snack every single day and I was even bullied for this. I'm telling you, I didn't know what pringles tasted like until 2 months ago when I went out with one of my friends and she let me have one because she knew my mother would have checked how much money I had left and the receipts from shops, so it was impossible for me to secretly buy food. But because of her, I developed binge eating and became really fat over the years. She took me to the first nutritionist when I was eight, and that completely traumatised me, but she wouldn't listen. She continued forcing me into several diets and even cut off calories from them. So, when this morning I was having breakfast, she told me: "Why won't you stop eating? You've already had two strawberries this morning, you should be fine until lunch". When I told her to stop, she replied that she does all of this because she loves me. I said: "No, you don't love me and it can clearly be seen. You were never there for me and made me go through the craziest shit ever, so leave." She went on the balcony to smoke a cigarette and I could clearly see that she was crying, but at this point I didn't even care anymore. I don't love her or see her as my mother. So, am I the asshole?

2023.06.04 10:12 OkieDokieAlky8743 I'm convinced IC forces bad ratings
In 3.5 years doing this now it's like clock work. I'll go long stretches, sometimes months with no blemishes to my rating. Not a single poor rating. Then in one week I'll get slammed with them non stop. I shop the same way everyday. I message to start the order, I communicate through our, I do what I'm supposed to do. This week alone I've gotten 6 poor ratings including a 2 star and a 1 star without a single negative feedback or missing item reported. I refuse to believe this just happens naturally. At the very least IC throws you customers with a history of giving out bad ratings.

2023.06.04 09:44 Bentwingbandit Squeaky gear on the extruder.
The gear opposite the one mounted on the motor squeaks. Started on my last print. Not sure if these things need lubricant or not. N3 printer is 9 months old. I hit it with a drop of lithium grease and it stopped for a few minutes but started back up again. Should I take it down to clean and lube and reassemble? Should it be replaced? If so is just the gear replaced or the whole unit a field replaceable unit minus the motor?

2023.06.04 09:34 psikon01 [USA-CA] [H] SGPC K49 ITX Case, InWin Chopin Pro Case w/ 200W PSU [W] Local cash
Timestamps
Local Cash in Oakland, CA
| Item | Price | Description |
|---|---|---|
| SGPC K49 ITX Case (w/ PCIE 3.0 riser cable) | $50 | Bought in May 2022. Couple screws are kinda stripped in that they won't stop turning (one of the motherboard standoffs and one of a side panel), but they still keep the parts together. PCIE 3.0 riser cable (bought separately) and all accessories that came with the case included. |
| InWin Chopin Pro Case (w/ included 200W 80+ Gold PSU) | $60 | Bought in August 2021. Built in it a couple times, works fine. I did lose the screws that held the USB and audio ports in place so I am using the included 2.5" SSD screws instead (There are still 6 left, plenty to mount any 2.5" drives in the case. Pictures in timestamps). Also swapped the original PSU fan with a Noctua NF-A4x10 FLX fan for noise. |
