  • Could you find a link or do you remember the channel name? I think falconry is really awesome and I'd love to see that

  • My experience with the feeling of "being shitty" is when I think of all the bad decisions that lead me to being in the dead end, no skill job I have; thinking about the bills I'm behind on, the chores I'm behind on, the friends who keep reaching out that I haven't responded to, how I'm probably not doing enough for my kid or partner, things like that

    But I really try not to be shitty to other people because for the most part, they're not the cause of my shittiness

  • Here's their website:https://www.hallmarkchannel.com/movies

    They're all fairly similar; I think if you blindly pick one you'll still get what you're looking for

    I haven't watched one in many years, IF I've ever watched one

  • How close have you ever been to a lightning strike, or related situation caused by a lightning strike?

    Jump

  • When I was in my early teens when my family and I heard an extremely close lightning strike. I think we were sitting outside and saw the lightning but didn't see where it hit

    I looked over and realized it had struck a tree a few houses up

    "The tree is on fire!" Mom, Dad, and myself ran downstairs; mom drove us up the road with shovels in the back and Dad and I hopped out

    A couple neighbors showed up just about the same time as us. One had a blanket and was trying to beat it out which was working on the grass but it was fanning the flames that were already starting up the trunk. I had to tell them to stop and encouraged people to throw dirt on the trunk which thankfully worked

    Please don't ask why no one had a fire extinguisher, I was young and I didn't think about it. Or maybe someone brought one but didn't deploy it. I think the immediacy of the situation led people to grab the tools they knew where they were and maybe people didn't think about using an extinguisher on nature?

  • Yes, my father did. He had the same one for many years at one place (nearly a decade, until he was laid off) then another for many, many years (nearly two decades, until he retired)

    I was able to visit the first job as a child and I loved it. It was incredibly cozy. It wasn't decorated with past achievements of what he once was, but some awards and certificates he may have earned in his current life to celebrate his growth. A lot of personalization like family photos, silly pictures, memes (they had memes printed out on paper many decades ago, too!), snacks, projects he was working on, a LOT of computer parts (he worked at a major computer company), a couple nice comfy desk chairs

    Other people had different tastes of course. If you've ever been to college where people live in dorms, it's almost the same feeling. Some are bare and kept to the absolute essentials. Others were absolutely plastered with personal effects

    The company he worked for obviously allowed that freedom and I can't say the same for everywhere, especially if cubicles are shared spaces with an alternate shift

    Those are some very good nostalgic memories for me so I wanted to share, thanks for giving me an opportunity

  • That was still a very heartfelt reply and I appreciated it. I don't think you came off any way at all other than passionate

    Please don't talk down to yourself. Learning new things is inspiring!

    Your comment made me realize I had an id10t whoosh moment here. I didn’t realize wombats actually pooped cubes. What a dummy. Thanks!

    ♥️♥️ Your comment just struck a chord with me so I wanted to ask you to not be so hard on yourself

  • I experimented with a bunch of foods and food-safe strong smelling/tasting things. Even spicy was knocked out which surprised me. I would have thought that would have remained unaffected

    That was one of the few times in life I've really been concerned about my quality of life if the effects were permanent

    Like, I've thought about "what if I lost my sight/hearing/limbs" but taste and smell never really occurred to me. But it was truly life altering and I really considered what I'd do if I didn't get those senses back

  • never gonna run around and desert you

    Jump

  • Oh yeah that was absolutely affected as well. I couldn't taste anything for a few days. I don't remember specifically how long I couldn't taste or smell, this was 4.5 years ago. That was the first time, early 2021. Subsequent bouts have not done that to me (unfortunately I work in an environment where people come in sick and pass it along. I've gotten covid many times and it makes me upset every time)

    But yeah, eating became an even more unpleasant task. I pretty much do it because I have to but I try to make it enjoyable; but when you only have texture to work with then that becomes very difficult

  • never gonna run around and desert you

    Jump

  • I had been a bit sick and I had the realization when I went to sniff some weed and I couldn't smell it. I'd been able to smell earlier in the day and it was a weird realization. I went around and sniffed everything I could hoping to get a whiff

    It was extremely bizarre. I've had muted sense of smell and taste because of a sickness but never an absence of the sense

    Little Big has a video where the main guy skates through a room on these

    If you haven't checked them out, they have some great high production music videos and the music itself is pretty catchy

    They collaborate a lot with some other artists, too, and those videos are worth taking a look at as well

  • That article is unfortunately gone and I couldn't find the link on the archive sites I know

    That second one was a nothing burger really, but I wonder if it's the same (the second link is from April of this year)

  • What is a useful or interesting product under $100 that you wouldn’t normally think to buy?

    Jump

  • Just be careful of the material you get. There are some that degrade over time. That said, I loved playing with bags of rubber bands when I was a kid. I'd stick my hands all the way in the bag and just squish them around. It feels great!

  • To be fair..

    I did the thing where I signed up and got the app and promptly never used it

    I don't particularly like short form content (at all) but I was hoping that there'd be some relevant connection between the platforms

  • I have been under the impression (for a very long time) that habbo was defunct and I guess never decided to revisit that thought. Apparently it's still very much alive! I might need to actually check it out as I don't think I've ever played it

    But you've got my interest piqued!

  • They like moisture. They're crustaceans like crabs and shrimp so they need high humidity at the very least to survive. Bugs also like to find shelter in shade so a big shady place that also happens to be damp is paradise
