I’ll write something here later probably. In the meantime, hi to whoever’s reading this I hope you get a chance to enjoy something kind today :)

  • Oh thank hell it’s not just me. Every so often I retry the man command only to get frustrated having to flip through six walls of text via keyboard for something a 20 second Internet search would have easily refreshed my memory on.

  • She has absolutely taken over your life and she bears that knowledge with glee.

    Those lil peanut cheeks(whiskers?) of hers are killing me though 😭💜

  • Thank you this sums up pretty accurately how I’ve felt lately too.

    Like, we’re effectively a collection of pseudo-countries loosely tied together by a federal delegation spread across a contiguous landmass roughly a third the size of the continent of Asia. Our cross-border infrastructure is a joke, worker protections are nonexistent and to drive several hours/days to the nation’s capitol to protest (which we’re being told does and doesn’t work??) is a level of cost many literally cannot afford.

    In a lot of states we do see grassroots efforts to fight back and improve. That is a better comparison to smaller European countries that have won in fighting against government corruptions, imo. Even Texas recently had a small wave of progressive wins in local races.

    Unfortunately I think a lot of outsiders see “you have guns there!” and as such want us to start an all-out bloodbath. I don’t think it’s wrong for the average citizen to not want to die unnecessarily, and/or only use arms for literal self defense rather than reckless political violence. (inb4 “bUt Ur gubbermint is aLrEadY violent!1! DoN’t WaIt!2!” yeah no duh, see “literal self defense”)

    A good chunk of the 20th and 21st century European revolutions people point to when we ask were largely nonviolent. That’s what we’ve been trying too. Not unarmed, but nonviolent (also corporate property damage doesn’t count as violence).

    Malcolm X, the Black Panthers and of course MLK are solid figurehead examples of American protest that led to some level of success. Protesters during the AIDs crisis too. But it took them years. We’re trying.

  • I feel that. I got COVID (confirmed) back in august and while it screwed up my stomach for 3 weeks my respiratory was fine.

    Forgot to vaxx for flu and got it in November, very literally couldn’t breathe properly for 8 weeks.

    Got a lot of gray hair from COVID though.

    ETA: I did get COVID vaccine when it first came out, and am pro-vax/pro-mask. Just sharing anecdotal experience.

  • Summer, always. I wish it could be summer year-round.

    It’s hot outside, the sun is out for longer, and my seasonal depression can go kick rocks. Natural vitamin D is a hell of a drug. Where I am gets humid too, so my asthma isn’t nearly as bad (dry air triggers it).

    Cold saps my energy and psyche to the point I’m a shell of myself. I also get sick very easily in the cold weather. I just do not function.

    I’ve jokingly been called a lizard but I think I’d genuinely be happy living in a greenhouse/terrarium with a sun lamp, water and a bunch of plants, lol.

  • I take it Shen is suspected of being a furry?

  • The “alt” style helps a lot, actually (ime). I trust metal head-looking dudes over frat boy-looking dudes 1000% but that’s anecdotal

  • Lack of external stimulus (compared to during the day) -> negative bias (old survival instincts) -> ample time to ruminate = fun nighttime anxiety 🫠

  • Economical alternative: bake your own treats, or become friends with someone who likes to bake! (We’re happy to share/give away)

  • “Fire!”

  • I see where you’re coming from but I think OP is wanting to gift the kid’s dad a bonding experience with his son through the toy, specifically.

  • That said, maybe I should see that as the latest kind of zombification? Pure brain rot instead of flesh rot?

    Zombies are sci-fi. Sci-fi, by and large, is social commentary. You’ve hit the nail on the head quite nicely actually.

  • They will know what a primordial pouch is and carry that knowledge as punishment for their crime
