I know they are wild animals, but I want to pet one so bad. Why are wild things so cute?

One worry is earthquakes, which can sever or crack gas lines.

I like the Miele I have, but I don't know if you can find one for $500 CAD. It's a great vacuum though.

Displayport already exists and is way better and less expensive. The plug shape is also way better, and doesn't have the annoying tendency to come slightly unplugged.

Not only that, but if you are ever destroyed by a car or something, being married gives you the ability to see them in the hospital and make life decisions for them. I think the default is family, which might be risky in some relationships.

Side note, it's a very good idea for you to get your will and medical powers written up while you are young. You might not be conscious if you get injured, and you may or may not want to be on a ventilator and artificial food for 30 years.

We like being married! Were it not for marriage, it would have been significantly more difficult for us to live together as an international couple.

 

Vision Zero guidelines appear to be working as intended! Fingers crossed that many more cities start adopting these principles.

That's great!

My theory on car/motorcycle deaths is that a lot more people are running blatantly red lights. Not where yellow teases red. Solid red for a minute where people just Hail Mary it through the intersection and then get obliterated.

The solution is more red light cams, automated ticketing cams on buses for cars doing illegal maneuvers in bus and bike lanes, and better enforcement of traffic safety rules.

Simultaneously, slowing down cars with narrower roads, speed humps or bumps, and turning many roads into Canadian-style green streets for bikes and pedestrians eases congestion and makes things safer.

Skip the alcohol and go to a modern laser tag arena with friends. Insanely fun. They somehow got the Halo 2/3 announcer over a massive intercom system, and they have similar games. Feels like a match from when we were kids!

Give it back to the community, cowards.

Please make it a trend to "own the libs"

 

These tortoises can live till 200, and it's not uncommon for them to have children at such an age, even in the wild. Their numbers are growing! :)

The people I hate even more are the ones who wet their hands and then leave. Who the fuck are you even fooling? Everyone watched you not wash your hands, and now you are dribbling shit/piss water all over everything.

You know how bad glitter is? Pretend your hands got dipped in glitter glue. Rinsing ain't gonna get that shit off. You have to scrub with soap.

British tea is way better than our (US) tea, and that's a hill I will die on.

 

A very cool plan. The only part that is annoying is a new 10% sales tax on ebikes on top of the existing 10% sales tax. You'd be better off buying your ebikes out of state at this point. Other than crippling a nascent, ultra-low carbon market in a rapidly heating world, this looks like a great plan.

 

Tonight, I attended a talk on neuroscience and brain research, and there were a lot of interesting links between memories, behavior, and mental health. So I'm doing my own little version of that in this thread. What song do you associate with happy memories, even if it's just a general feeling of happiness? Can you recall one of your oldest ones?

Go your own way, by Fleetwood Mac makes me think of fun car trips with my parents, roughly around 6-8 years old. Nothing terribly specific, though I do associate it closely with one of the city highway on ramps used to go visit relatives, go skiing, or get to the airport. :)

 

The two didn't believe the officers when they were informed that they were wildlife officers and bragged and their illegal hunts, their uncle's illegal hunts, and showed officers an illegal turtle skeleton they had in their bag.

 

Sounds like this might be a good option for people with Juiced bikes.

 

I have a HOB filter that is also probably cooling the water down a bit.

 

We were on Haz 7 on Fori Prime last night, and we easily killed well in excess of 300-600 bugs per diver, multiple bile titans, half a dozen+ chargers, etc.

They just never stopped spawning. We leveled half the city with strategems, arc throwers and flamethrowers and they just kept coming as if the spawners were broken. Are these levels OP for anyone else?

I've played for 160 hours and have never seen anything like this before.

 

Luckily, they are delicious and almost free.

 

Someone's nickname in the competition is literally "The annihilator" lmao.

It actually sounds like a lot of fun, and I'd be interested to see the whole thing.
