This has been my same experience for what it's worth. Folks whose parents told them they hung the moon who won't accept a living wage for a hard day's work. Not bad people at all for the most part. But they think their ent

I've got a lot more money tied up in rocks than I'd like to admit. And I don't have any particularly nice specimens. I just buy what makes me happy. I pay $5-$30 per specimen. There's a lot of things I would like to

I'm glad rock-collecting isn't like this. There's obviously the people who travel to localities to hand-collect their own samples and the people who just think rocks are pretty. But everyone has been very welcoming since I g

I've definitely had my femininity attacked in an openly hostile manner. Often. When I was in junior high and high school, I thought women were the lesser sex and eschewed girly hobbies and clothing in favor of more masculine things.

Yes Amazon created $15/hour jobs in areas where that's an above-average wage. But you've got to leave your dignity at the door to earn that. Most warehouses where I'm at pay $15/hour. Amazon is not paying above t

I'm not using signal as my main SMS app because until a week ago, it didn't notify me when I got a text. Which is kind of a problem.

I'll go ahead and disclose that I found myself in a similar situation after attempting suicide by overdose. I was hallucinating and making no sense, not following direction, and I've been told I was trying to break into other peo

I've used diatomaceous earth with good results for various things I don't want in my house. I don't mind sharing my home with spiders and the like. But fleas are not welcome. And the previous homeowners planted some lovely

Fish keepers too. However it's not recommended in areas that use chloramines in addition to chlorine, as those are less volatile.

I don't get the point of either argument. Whether he said he took too many drugs or not, you shouldn't kneel on someone's neck, chest, or back for longer than it takes to get restraints in place. If someone's so fuckin

Grocery store honey crystallizes too. What I've found is that people who grew up on cheap honey just don't know what they're missing. Once they try the good stuff, they're ruined for the national brands.

The honey in the grocery store has nothing on real honey either. It just tastes like corn syrup to me. There's a store here that sells honey from local bee keepers and it blew my mind the first time I had it after using Sue Bee all m

I think I only accomplished any of that because I was a kid before kids having their own computers was a thing. So I had nothing but time to spend and all the patience an 8-15 year old could muster. Once I got a job and could drive places

Huh. I suppose thinking back the guy that told me that generally didn't know what he was talking about. I never bothered to double check. I don't do anything that I need a fall arrest system anymore, but maybe I should do some

I always wanted a dog growing up. My parents finally agreed to a cat, so I made do. She knew sit, shake, high five, would "play" the piano, and could be sent off to touch a mark. When my sister's cat came to live with us f

I thought that happened with fall arrest harnesses as the leg straps cut off the blood supply through your inner thigh. It's not so much the suspension, but where the straps cross.

I don't know how replies and edits work on this site. I didn't see most of your post when I replied. The problem I have with what happened to these penguins is how wasteful it was. Relatively little was produced and everything e

If you had said 8 or 9 years, that would have been a reasonable way to communicate that they live longer than they lay eggs. When you pull out a number like 12 years for an animal that can die of old age at 6, you're either misinforme

Roosters are aggressive and territorial. You can sometimes house them together, but it's more difficult than hens and even hens have some pretty nasty pecking order disputes if they aren't raised together. Hens do not have to be

I'm sure there have been chickens that lived to 12 years old, but most breeds I know of live 5-8 years. Saying that chickens live for up to 12 years is like saying humans live up to 130 years. Yes, it happens, but the majority die in

Some cases of depression and especially bipolar disorder seem to have a genetic component. Parents that are on SSRIs, SNRIs, antipsychotics and atypical antipsychotics are probably already much more likely to have children who have the sam

I and most people my age in my area are trying to purchase our living space. When you rent, you don't have to pay for maintenance, but you also don't get any return from the money you put into it. It's a fee you pay for a p

Pets are a privilege? Granted by whom? Am I seriously not free in society to own an animal without the express permission of whatever entity you look to in order to function? I don't need a coffee table to survive. Is that a privilege

Can I just reply to your first line? I'm in the middle of the US. We have plenty of jobs here and poverty is less severe than on the coasts. I would like to purchase a house. 10 years ago, I could have gotten the size of house I want

That's super interesting to me. I live in the middle of the US. There's a grocery store about 2 blocks from me, but that's by far the closest I've ever lived to one. 40 minute drive to work. 10 minutes by car to Targ

Is it helpful or relevant for me to add that the slaughterhouses in my city used to be right in the middle of town? They're still there actually, just on a smaller scale and the city has grown so much that that's not the middle of

I don't read a lot of self-help books, but the ones I have have been extremely helpful. Some people don't respond to them and 95% of what's on the market are bullshit platitudes, but it feels like throwing the baby out with

I need to figure something out for this. I have narcolepsy and depression and I've fallen into this cycle where I'm tired, so I sleep, then I wake up still tired because I don't get restful sleep, so I go back to sleep. Whe

It was not enforced at all where I live. We had a mask mandate in our county for less than a week this summer. Businesses chose what measures to take and they were all over the place. Thankfully it's a pretty well-to-do county. Onl
