ok, here's a story for ya.

recently one of the aboriginal women at work tells me she went on a trip to see some family out in the country.

now she's a city girl so she was blown away when her cousins see a wombat that had been collected by a car, dead on the side of the road and start to slow down. she tells me that she was wondering what they were doing when they started to pull over.

then they get out, run over to it and start dragging it back to put in the vehicle and that's when she asked what they were doing. when they tell her it was to eat she was like, what the hell? i'm not going to fucking eat that and neither are you. we live in the modern world, put it back. so after an argument, reluctantly they left it where it lay.

it's not like they were in the middle of the wilderness either, they lived in town. there was like a KFC, mcdonalds, food at the pub, a caffee or two, and other food outlets.

she thinks they were actually going to cook it up, and believe me wombats are not small either so it probably would quite a few people. about the size of a lawn mower, can get slightly bigger.

Yeah well, a few year ago I hit this partridge with my Jeep.

Stoped, picked it up and had it for lunch in my uncleanable "bakes everything dish".

It was just a little ripped in the middle, man.

Still good.

 

It bent my radio antena

i don't know, i wouldn't change anything then. it has something to do with the rating, if a submission has around a 1 to 2 star rating with 10-12 votes it gets removed. maybes its fivestar or voting api but thats just a guess from what i can find online

in that dashboard i mentioned before. you should have a button called modules, that should give you a list. checking the page source, fivestar is whats installed. so you should have a fivestar in that list, next to it possibly a preference button, explore, just don't save anything. cause i don't know this program
