Play fireworks compilations on YT to desensitise. My dogs sleep through fireworks. They’ll some times bark but it’s because they hear other dogs barking down the road.

I need to watch things die
From a good safe distance
Vicariously, I live while the whole world dies
You all feel the same, so
Why can’t we just admit it?

Parking lots to leave your car and roll into town on rail or bus via the attached depot.

The US sees an item not referred to by a corporate brand name, and wouldn’t have it.

They’re not alone in it, but their suseptiblity to macro-marketing can only be described as “American level”.

I loved it in the tropics. 40C day, then right on 4pm, BAM!!! It’s 25C, there’s an epic lightning show, 10 mins later it’s gone, the roads are steaming, and a nice balmy 28C night kicks off.,

I’ve had someone recognise I’m a drummer because of the way my leg bounce made the bench move. Apparently my anxiety ticks groove.

Things aren’t so bad if you avoid doom scrolling and comparing yourself to others. Almost any other time was worse to be alive in.

That’s fine. Being the fastest at getting from A to B using just legs is rarely a deal breaker. Though, you’d have probably tried harder if the trophy was called the “Least likely to die in an open field of zombies trophy”.

You’d win plenty of trophies if they made an event for the stuff you’re best at.

“ball of fire”

Haha, no no. You threw down with a gigantic source of cell destroying radiation. The fire did no harm.

It felt worse. Getting a recognition certificate or a white ribbon for coming fourth was a total bummer to my care-factor for participating. Kick a kid while they’re down and they’re not likely to be motivated.

Based on a dogs shape and coat, you can pretty easily determine the breed families in it. It’s important to know since dog breeds are much more diverse due to their history with humans around the world—most have jobs bred into them. So it’s still good to know if your dog has breeding in it that thrives on exercise or fetch jobs or that sort of thing. Most of those little dogs are for hunting small vermin and are savage fuckers, for example.

Cats it’s mostly one size fits all with a random roll on personality stats.

Gets me every time

grab item, close pantry, wonder how many times this has happened before, blank out memory once again, go back to cooking

For me, first immediate issue was,

“Now let me settle in with my comfy computer jeans and leather boots.”

I bet that buttoned collar shirt has never seen Cheetos dust either.

It has its ups and downs

This could be asked of a thousand million other products in the past three years.

But hey, here I am replying to this comment from my AI powered pants zipper, so…

Honestly, if we’re gonna be this bad on our bodies, we may as well just lay down and have monitors above us as the norm. It sounds unhealthy, but only because we’d be admitting to ourselves how unhealthy we’re already being. So we may as well take care of our skeletons over the hours and days and weeks and years of the same shit.

Nine clams?! Yoooooo!!!

And no one seems to do anything about it.

It’s soooo easy to kidnap people in the US right now. Human trafficking rings never had it so easy.
