My Dad is a Buddhist, so I have some knowledge and respect for that philosophy/faith.
But yes, he was a hippy too.
And I think he would agree that this question is poorly formed at least. But then I’ve never heard my Dad talk about chakras either.
I blocked it because I browse all and every day dozens of communities were being created. And I don’t need porn communities here really. I just didn’t want to miss out on the non-porn NSFW content, comics like Oglaf.
Edit: Shit I just remembered it was actually because assholes kept posting SFW pics of celebs causing their NSFW communities to show up.
Two of our four cats often show up in the bathroom when we are showering so we can wet them down with our hands when we get out.
They get all excited for a quick bath from mommy or daddy.
Games have been around the $50-$70 mark my entire life.
It’s a sad reality, but I expect prices of major mainstream games to go up, regardless of tariffs.
Yeah, 2nd edition d&d was far, far more brutal than 5e.
I should’ve given the full context - when I was a kid watching the news with my parents it was likely late in the Carter administration, or early in Reagan’s. So yeah, fully agreed.
And this is why the Left can’t win.
It’s too obsessed with purity and infighting to focus on the true enemy.
The fascists, on the other hand, focus on the true enemy, then focus on purity and infighting!
I should’ve put a /s at the end. The joke was too good.
The gish gallop has gone mainstream.
What we needed, twenty to forty years ago at the bare minimum, were journalists who were willing to shut that shit down.
I remember being a child watching the news with my parents and seeing an oil company defender accusing the scientists of chasing profits.
Like what the fuck? How did that not end immediately with “And who is currently profiting?” is and always has been beyond me.
…I’m not sure that’s a great example of the gish gallop. Technically.
My point was that we now report the untrue claims rather than saying, from the start, “This candidate said something completely false and not worth repeating.”
For clicks, views, the algorithm, for profit. Nope. It was all to game the system in order to destroy it.
Sorry, this probably isn’t coherent but I’m tired and tipsy, and I’ve chosen to hit save.
Fenn better not be your root password.
You get to grieve there with your family. The weird people leave with your old dog (sob), after everyone gets to give their respects, and then it’s just you and your remaining family.
It’s a funeral. And I’m so lucky to have this because we don’t get charged for that extra service - the boss considers us family for that. The hospital went corporate and that touch won’t last but I appreciate his efforts there for us.
I’m glad you’ve had good experiences in waiting rooms! Mine were mixed and now I honestly never have to deal with any of it because she does.
And I completely agree on the latter. We have that done and it’s so much … better? To have that closure, with all the other pets able to be present and see/smell them and say goodbye.
Just replying again since my wife got home.
She said what actually happens is that when the pet is in the exam room, the customer is brought to the room. I just didn’t know the whole process post-covid. You were right!
Typically the owner is in their car outside so they can still inquire and be brought inside as needed.
That may be a Fear Free clinic. If it isn’t, that certification may be worth them looking into.
My wife works at a certified Fear Free clinic. Customers are only allowed in the building when their animals are being put down. (A greeter goes out to retrieve animals from the cars and return them after the appointment.)
Animals are happy to be there, because it doesn’t smell like fear any longer. There’s no waiting room with other animals. Just the staff who are happy to see them.
It is a real game changer.
First there were truck nuts…
Boneappletea?
The word is candelabra. :)
Hour by hour, my job evolved from taking calls from clients who owed us money, to then answering questions from agents who weren’t as skilled at it as I was.
In the process of being promoted, I was asked to join a daily meeting of over 100 people talking about the issues affecting our department.
Once in a great while, something came up in that meeting that gave me the heads up to prevent chaos in our department and stress to members.
There’s a whole shitload of cogs turning in modern corporations. There’s also a huge danger of people leaving and nobody understanding why the cogs are there.
