For some reason Lady and the Tramp reminded my mother of The King and I. So I had to watch both in the same week for the first time, and it was a very weird experience lol

Edit: I just looked them up and they were made four years apart! I assumed the Disney movie was made in the 80s because I saw it in the 90s lol

I’ve been patiently waiting for moths pondering orbs

It does feel like there’s a new wave of change, I have no idea if it’s due to new reddit refugees or general discontent. But yes, there does seem to be a lot more down voting, more quarrelsome comments, less cohesion within some communities.

There’s also been a few posts sprinkled across instances discussing some accounts that do nothing but down vote. No comments, no posts, just down votes

You’re right. Broken neck during delivery, caused by excessive force from the doctor.

Absolutely horrifying

To be fair, I am also a millennial, but most of my friends were surprised when I told them about that correction I received from the younger generation. I guess that says more about my friends than millennials overall lol

I’ve heard from Gen Z that ending a text response with a period is passive aggressive. So “cool” may have seemed glib on its own, but the punctuation might be giving an additional, if unintentional, tone

Add that any products grown for trade are sitting unwanted in fields, or for aid rotting in warehouses because the government canceled the contracts for them. Food is often held in special warehouses where the oxygen is pumped out, but there aren’t enough of those to hold all the excess that was expected to be sent elsewhere

It’s a colossal mess, with an incredible amount of waste

I’m glad this was the ruling. But will it stand up to appeal? In the 80s federal funding for highways was withheld unless the state complied with the new minimum age for drinking alcohol.

Edit: it was only 10% of the allocated funds, so maybe there is a chance

Uhhh… that thing where people glue little strands of hair to their forehead in an arc

Do you mean styling baby hairs?

I have a hard time believing they didn’t know of and weren’t complicit in the attack on Iran. They just diverted an arms shipment from Ukraine to Israel that specifically are claimed to counter Iranian drones

Edit: I saw it was to Israel on the BBC I think, but this article says otherwise

My cats are fed in separate rooms for the same reason. I put a little collar activated flap on one door so the picky one could eat without my youngin sniping her food. He’s still trying to figure out how to get in that room, I’m a little surprised he hasn’t tried to brute force it yet lol

I never understood why anyone local drove through it. Tourists I can understand, but it’s a drive it once and “holy cow that was a bad idea” experience

I’m 5’3 (160cm) and feel like I am invisible to trucks when I’m in a parking lot. It also feels like they’ve doubled their height (or more) over the last ten-15 years

High pH is basic btw. I’m assuming you meant low pH with the reference to soda

My acid reflux has nothing to do with acidic or basic foods, and everything to do with the ratio of fat I’ve eaten or how many alcoholic drinks I’ve had in an evening. Beer is about a hundred times less acidic than soda (for reference) and soda doesn’t set my reflux off

My point is that human bodies are weird and we react in weird ways to food. That’s why we have to trial foods

Maybe you can use a reloadable visa card?

That is something my mother said to me a lot. Along with, “I brought you into this world, and I can take you out of it”. It’s fucked up, because it’s not like anyone chooses to be born. These are not normal things for a parent to say by any means. It’s emotional abuse.

You deserve better than that! It’s not easy cutting ties with family, but life is a lot easier when you’re not dealing with such a toxic, resentful human in your life.

They’re not extremely similar to MSI, but you might like Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (the band)

That’s fair! I am fully covered by the VA so I don’t have a real idea of what things cost. And I’m also on an immune suppressant, so vaccines like the MMR aren’t things I can safely get unless I stop the medication in advance.

Some veterans were given an additional MMR vaccine in bootcamp. I don’t know if there was a cutoff for people born after '88 though. Regardless, it’s still good to get a titer if you’re worried your immune system has lost some strength against measels
