We had one cat and didn’t expect a second but it was a conversation that we had started and expected that maybe the first cat was alone and sad when we left for work (in the long ago era of 2013, a pre pandemic life). Given that the shelter was locally well respected we took a look and, yeah, it’s risky but that’s the nature of impulse purchases!
A cat. In line at the pet store for kitty litter and saw a literal pile of kittens near the check out. Turns out that the local shelter was having an adoption day and my partner found a black cat that immediately nuzzled into her shoulder and the little kitten motor purred so loud it sounded like snoring. They bonded in that moment and have been best friends for the last 14 years.
Dark MAGA are leash trained and love being subs
Don’t let Americans cook means you don’t know about actual American food like gumbo, sausage gravy, chili, or tri tip (among dozens of other dishes). It’s a sad, bland world without American food.
Ain’t nobody speaking for them dang trees so lend a hand and give em a voice.
Keep hitting until Riddler forgets!
That’s not how predetermination works. Just because there is an explosion does not mean that every particle has a preset location it must reach to enact a grander outcome of the combustion. Atheists don’t suffer from a need to have decisions rendered by an omnipotent being or a universe that is some stand-in for that being. There is no grand plan. The Big Bang was not some kick off for a well thought out schematic.
But the wall is on both sides so it can’t fall. It might slip but nothing catastrophic would happen.
This is how to draw “frustration” for Pictionary.
Mario stops kings. Luigi stops killers.
Other races do this too. I have Chinese friends and family who are deeply racist against anyone not Chinese.
The sun is so bright it hurts the eyes. See the Moon around Earth? It has the reflectivity of charcoal and yet it can light up the dark side of the Earth with how much it reflects. Do you know how reflective Venus is? It’s like having a disco ball in your face and you’re on fire. And now some monkey on Earth is questioning your fashion choices. People, man…
Well yeah. Did you see how he eats oatmeal? Now imagine that messy enthusiasm where it matters. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
If Vietnam had the PR machine of America, Võ Nguyên Giáp would be heralded as one of the greatest military minds of all time. Instead he is begrudgingly accepted as a good strategist who probably beat 3 of the biggest, most powerful militaries in the world with villagers.
The West doesn’t want to admit that a lawyer who was untrained in military doctrine and strategy beat France then the USA then Cambodia then China in a long 40 year fight. To Americans, the Vietnam was a gruesome 20 years. To Vietnam that was the second chapter of a 50 year period where someone tried to conquer them.
But that’s why I want to go back…
Ok, I realize that I’m in the minority, but I want to pay creators for the time they have put into the game and encourage them to continue creating, even if they don’t finish. It just so happens that well wishing doesn’t pay bills and creators are more likely to try, fail, and resign than see the value in their art and retry or hone their craft/product.
I want to give money to artists, authors, musicians - anyone who is willing to spend their time and effort into making the world a little less awful because we live in a society that doesn’t care about art or beauty unless it makes money. And sometimes the best way to tell a person to keep doing what they’re doing is to help them get the basics taken care of and hope their effort is well placed as a result. I want to give them money for early access software. I believe in their vision as much as they did when they started. They have an idea that got them so excited that they did something about it. We need more of those people.
At first he was cool and would wash people’s cars and picking up animal poop from yards. But it turns out he wasn’t helpful. He was gathering materials and was stealing polluted dirt, piles of shit, and anything else he could find into grotesque golems that roam town and do his bidding. It’s unbearable to go to the market for some bread and milk only to discover the waste elemental made of animated shit and cigarette butts is there to get groceries for him. It’s a fucking nightmare and it makes me want to wear anti magic pendants to fuck up his errands - but that leaves behind unanimated filth that has to be moved by us mundanes. It’s so one sided it’s like tyranny.
Authoritarians don’t care about what the hoi polloi think.
