Same. They also told me his neighbor was a prick, and when he pissed him off King would line up small rocks on is lawn and drive over them with his lawnmower to launch them towards the neighbor’s house. Can’t comment on the veracity, but it somehow feels like something he would do imo.
I have never used any dryer sheets etc, and have tried to move away from the dryer entirely. The dryer itself is the biggest avoidable source of wear and tear, heat and unnecessary mechanical agitation. If I am early enough in doing my laundry on Saturday I hang it up, I only use the dryer now if I was late and need them dried before work on Monday.
Fun fact, not only was that the original pronunciation, but the earliest known written joke about the name is a play on urine, not anus.
I went the other way. Never separated for ages, then I got some nice wool socks for work. I don’t care about colors running, but I do want to minimize wear on my delicate clothes, and need to use more expensive detergent for the wool. So now I do my whites on a more delicate cycle. And I’m suddenly finding my flimsy cheap-ass home socks and boxers that used to disintegrate in no time are lasting waayyyyy longer.
I think the point was when you use the distress code, it loads a fresh profile and wipes the old one, not to have the two layers both present. If they have possession of the phone and the data is there to be found, they probably will find it. The key is to wipe it all, while making it look like nothing got removed.
It is true that diet is directly responsible for the vast majority of weight regulation, but exercise is just as important in an indirect manner. 99% of the time you aren’t going to burn enough calories to make a significant difference, but regular exercise has significant effects mentally, several of which contribute to make people much more likely to keep on a diet. IIRC, there was a study that showed it being a bigger factor in weight loss, because people who diet without exercise are far more likely to drop the diet, while people who start with just exercise are more likely to pick up and stick with a diet later.
Always my favorite Badman. I OVERFED THESE MEN‽
So, they aren’t exactly a monolith, different folks have different ideas. But generally speaking, they beleive all celestial bodies are basically spinning above us. I know they consider the sun to be actually really small and shockingly close to the surface. Generally the idea is the antarctic is the rim of the disk, with a giant ice wall that keeps the oceans in. Gravity is an illusion caused by the Earth constantly accelerating upwards.
I assume the name refers to the fact that you are halfway to the fourth twenty from the third?
All* the Old English characters are named with the sound they make, almost all of them starting with that sound. Æ is called Ash, and it makes the ah sound.
This is why my answer is either “yes,” if I’m busy, or “kind of, why what is it?” Judging by the followup I can determine how exactly how “kind of,” busy I am.

Has an ice age ever started during a current ice age before?
Japan and Korea are both further along the path, and moving more quickly. But yes, much of the EU is still on the same path, and the time to effectively mitigate the issue will come and go before most people notice. This is a problem that always has consequences out many decades from current actions, a timeline just too far along for our hunter-gatherer brains to care much about. It will take much longer to be in a real bind, but by the time it happens it is far too late to right the ship.
Far from comprehensive, but a good primer.
The problem is similar to climate change. The effects of today will ripple several decades into the future, and people everywhere are more short-sighted than they would like to think, you and me included. Our brains are built for hunter gatherer lifestyles, sensing urgency in actions that will come back to us in 40-50 years just isn’t how we are programmed. Germany is already entering the danger zone, the effects won’t be stark for another 30 years or so perhaps, but if we delay much then there will be nothing to do to counterbalance it effectively. Demographic collapse is an issue that is way past mitigating by the time it becomes an acute problem. An ounce of prevention is not a pound or even a ton of cure, it’s the only cure. And when it starts to hit noticeably, that means you are just going over the side of the waterfall and it’s going to get a lot worse before it gets better. Korea is just starting to tip over the edge of the waterfall, in 5-10 years it is going to get much worse.
The takeaway from the meme isn’t that we are overreacting to their situation, it’s that we are underreacting everywhere else. The real insidious issue is that in most nations having this problem, society largely panders to its politically active and (comparitively) wealthy elder base, and the best way to boost the birth rate is to shift support from them towards the young, which is politically problematic. So we are stuck in a situation where those with power have to act against their interest, in order to avoid problems that will happen far later than our brains are hardwired to care about. In short, the prognosis is very bad. Imho, the only chance most western nations have is watching things get very ugly for the elderly in Asia, and using that to scare their constituents enough to convince them that short term sacrifice is needed to avoid similar conditions for themselves. But I’d say it’s a long shot.
Yeah, everyone was paying to back out of their contracts as soon as the prices went through the roof. The customers will do the same when they come back down if they are stuck in these contracts.
OP is edited, it’s the same story.
I’ve heard that leopards have some of the strongest hunting instincts, making them even more damgerous than any other large cats. People that raised them from cubs and are 100% family are still hyper vigilant to never turn their backs to them for this reason. Even if it’s just play fighting for them, it can easily kill a person.
