My car hates me - the wireless keyfobs (both) stopped working to unlock the car and my car also doesnt pick it up inside the car. It took me an hour and half to get in my car last night since the cars physical key did not unlock the door even.

Waiting on confirmation of when an auto electrician can come and take a look - I have found a work around with the spare key

Sorry Wyv. We’ve had similarly irritating issues with Kid Redd’s little Mazda 2. Half of them were connected to a failing alternator, the other half were because the stupid battery in the key fob was going flat way faster than it should have been.

Went to Cornell Skop today and had an amazing experience meeting the animals and even got to touch or handle a few.

I was the very last person in a queue to pet a Cheetah and get a picture with it once at a rehabilitation reserve (many years ago). The whole time I’m watching the people in front of me take their turns and watching this Cheetah, and I’m telling you, this Cheetah is not happy. And as it gets closer to my turn I’m getting more and more unsure about doing it, because I can see this kitty is aggravated. So my turn comes and they assure me everything is fine, so I just go kneel next to the Cheetah and smile at the camera for the picture, and the photographer is like “no, you gotta touch the cheetah, go on, pet it” and I’m like “no thanks, I’m fine right here” and then everyone is piling on going just pet the cheetah and so I reach out to pet the cheetah, and it whips around and bites me on the arm. I am still amazed at how calm I stayed, I stared at it, it let go, I looked at the photographer and said “will you just take the picture please?”, smiled for the photos and walked away. And then the staff panic began, because I just got bitten by a cheetah. I knew as soon as the cheetah let go that it hadn’t broken the skin so I wasn’t too concerned, but damn. I don’t do photo ops with wild animals unless they look happy and like they are enjoying the human interaction.
