I will say anecdotally, my wife has aggressively kissed my dog since she was a puppy. The dog aldo knows we don’t like face licks and will boop my wife on the cheek with her nose repeatedly.

And to answer your question, people are into what they’re into, I just don’t get feet.

A good friend of mine regularly answers the phone like this.

My best friend and I always answer eathother’s calls with “Marco”.

This was one of the first things I remember someone teaching me as a small child and then again (correcting some) when I started martial arts. I attribute never breaking any bones as a kid to this.

Knowing how to fall is an important life skill that should not be reserved for people who partake in dangerous activities.

Technically about a train robbery.

The comment above yours laid out the details in this bill which include automatic increases adjusting with the median national income. I think that’s about as good as it could get coming from the federal government You could loby your local/ state government for additional adjustments based on COL, something i could see happening in NY, California or other high COL places. At least I could have seen in the pre-weasel reality, but who knows on this hellsphere.

I believe arlo cameras have an option to keep all recording in house. I think still connected through your wifi.

I could be wrong but I think you have that backwards.

It was an AI video generator from openAI backed by Disney but open AI decided to shutter it (we can discuss why, ie the reasons they gave and the real reason but thats not this comment) which caused Disney to pull support for openAI being that video creation is what they were after.

Party Down is one of the best little known shows to have existed, and it had such an amazing cast!

Funny I had the exact same thoughts on frostee.

I also prefer IBC (their black cherry soda is pretty tasty too) as the most accessible brand but if I can get my hands on it my favorite is from red hare brewing company. Unfortunately I think they may not exist any more.

Agreed the HFCS aren’t worth it, might as well have a coke.

What is your preferred?

I could definitely be wrong about the gender divide, its just something I’ve noticed in my own life.

I do remember and I loved them. My child now has a subscription. Its very different these days but in many ways a lot better. They are made to be more reusable with activities and such and they have more specific age brackets for different content. Pretty great.

I’m an avid root beed drinker and I wish I could agree the HFCS v cane was the defining difference between good and bad root beer I find there are still some that use cane sugar and are still not great. These are on whole better than any of the HFCS ones but still not created equal. Unfortunately I’m not sure what it is that makes the big difference, but I do find smaller batch companies that do still use other root oils and extracts to be the best. You may also be able to find birch beer in the EU and I find that more akin to OG rootbeer flavors.

Also a note on OP’s family experience, I find in America the devide on people who like it and don’t also seems to fall along gender lines. I can think of maybe 4 women in my life that can even stand the taste of root beer.

The rambunctious one wants to go in and out, porch to lap regularly, like several times an hr. If I just leave the door open for her to freely come and go as she pleases she will not go out unless I get up and walk to the door with her. The old man will come and rub his one and only tooth on you when he wants affection or is very hungry. The rambunctious one can be a bit of a shoulder cat which I love, except she doesn’t know how to get down without clawing the shit out of me even if im sitting in a chair.

I was considering one just the other day as my main phone for all of the reasons tou stated. You can treat it as a dumb phone if you want sure but it certainly isn’t.

Same. Plenty of “mix tape” CDs but no tapes. Unless you count the one I stole from my aunt. Also not sure if I can count a word processing machine as a type writer. I’ve used a real typewriter but just for fun.

Oh! I can also slow my heart rate, but I don’t hold my breath, I just beath slowly and… will it.

Same. If there’s a fair amount of particular types of ants I can smell them still but not which corner of the yard has fire ants anymore.

Lightning hit the ground right in front of the car i was in. Honestly no clue how close it was for too bright.

I’ve seen some trees get hit. My neighbors’ just a couple years ago. It caught fire on the inside which was pretty cool. It was a huge old oak, just kinda went out on its own and they cut it down a couple weeks later.

I went to high-school with a guy who was struck. He was in a coma. I was in school with him after, I think he was a junior at 19. His goatee grew in stripes of orange to red.
