  • They definitely need clearer labels

  • I accidentally used a clothes washing pod once, and it made the clean dishes taste so awful that they all had yo go straight back in the dishwasher. Then again, I have to hand-wash any plastics, as just one wash in the machine taints them for me. It's why I've switched to mostly glass food storage.

  • I recently cleared mine off and the cat was so grateful for his new seat.

  • We don't deserve cats

    Jump

  • When my first child was born, we only had one cat. He was very attentive during pregnancy then left a dead mouse as a gift right by the crib. He was a mouser when he was young, but hadn't hunted in a few years, so it was obvious that he understood there was a new "kitten" to take care of.

    When he was gone and we had one of the cats we have now, I had my second child. Now this cat had never hunted so much ad a spider, but she caught her only prey to date, another mouse, and left it beside a gift bag of baby stuff I had from work.

    I could have definitely done without dead mice, but I was pretty touched that they understood and wanted to do something "nice" for the babies.

  • What were you surprised to learn wasn't actually normal?

    Jump

  • Synesthesia. I was about 20 before I learned it has a name and not everyone has strong colour associations for numbers and letters, or sees a visible map of time in their head, or has music take shape. It never occurred to me to question it because it's always been my norm.

  • I'm sorry you went through that. I hope things continue to get better and better.

  • Thanks for the reminder to take my allergy meds!

  • MAGA influencer and Fox News guest indicted on child sex abuse charges

    Jump

  • Once again, it's a right winger doing this heinous shit.

    I relistened to a podcast episode about Sound Of Freedom movie the other day, and they were saying it suits the right wing narrative to believe child abuse is shady organisations using shipping containers. That way, it distracts them from the fact that most children are suffering because of a member of their family or someone in a position of authority (e.g. church leader). They get to feel righteous without having to look at the real causes or challenge the conservative ideals of the traditional family and religion.

  • How screwed are you?

    Jump

  • Westeros. So pretty screwed unless it's Dorne or maybe Highgarden.

  • TIL RFK Jr. is married to Cheryl Hines who plays Larry David's wife in Curb Your Enthusiasm

  • All of the above

  • Cod liver oil embraced amid Texas measles outbreak; doctors fight misinfo

    Jump

  • So this is fun: actual snake oil (the type made by Chinese railway workers) probably had some medicinal benefits. However, white "doctors" co-opted this for their medicine shows; it contained no snake and was just mineral oil, so this is where the term has its origins.

    Maintenance Phase podcast did a great episode on medicine shows.

  • Me turning the tap right a micrometer to then burn to ashes

    Jump

  • We have these in Europe. Ours is from Ikea and the button is at 38c. I've also seen them in holiday places in Spain. They work really well.

  • Charley

    Jump

  • We were always told to pull our toes up for calf cramps and it does work really well. It's just that doing it can feel quite painful at first until the relief comes.

  • Societal Fears

    Jump

  • It started in the 80s but I think it's heyday was the 90s. I remember reading things in the 90s in the tabloids my nan bought that haunted me for ages afterwards. The pain I could have saved if I'd know it was all bullshit.

  • Societal Fears

    Jump

  • Since this comic is about societal fears, there was also the Satanic Panic

  • Podcasts

    Jump

  • Off Menu. James Acaster and Ed Gamble have a guest in to discuss their dream menu. I started listening to guests I know and like at first, but then I listened to them all. Some of the guests I didn't know turned out to be brilliant anyway.

  • The radiator hammock was his favourite present

    Jump

  • It's from above and he has an ottoman pushed underneath with cushions on. The hammock is suspended but he was a bit unsure at first so it helped him to get up.
