I can’t really see the difference :S

Ah okay. In Canada the day after remembrance day is usually the “respectful” start of the season.

So, tomorrow presumably?

I’m getting emotional whiplash from the amount my emotions go from “fuck them all violence is the only answer” to “you should keep an open door for when their faces are undoubtedly eaten by leopards and need help”

Can you or someone share what it is? I’m scared to google it now hahaha.

Pretty sure everyone in the world is either 30, 60 or a child.

In that context it makes sense though, it’s being used as an adjective, as is “older”.

In the Summertime by Mungo Jerry. It’s such a nice catchy tune that I enjoyed until my partner pointed out:

Have a drink, have a drive Go out and see what you can find If her daddy’s rich, take her out for a meal If her daddy’s poor, just do what you feel

Which, ew.

I think pumped up kicks is actually a really poignant statement on how normalized gun violence is in the states, to the point where this song was all over radios and I’m sure all over high school dances and nobody thought twice about it. Like obviously the band did it intentionally but the fact that the point was missed so hard by everyone who sang along. It is like Hey Ya vibes to me, or smells like teen spirit for the older crowds. The point is to take these very serious ideas and use them to highlight people’s willful ignorance.

Just, like, spend it all on hookers and blow or what?

Would this honestly surprise you?

It would be, if those same billionaire owners didn’t pull the politician’s puppet strings.

I generally agree with your points on not wanting to create echo chambers; however, another reason for temporarily banning the topic imo is not just to block people talking about it but also to protect people who are already hurting, grieving, and generally just trying to find some sort of escape at the moment. Creating a space that will guarantee a temporary escape is nice, I think.

Hey maybe when their meth lab explodes we’ll also have a swift death :(

This is so. fucked. up. I’m not American (and thank fuck for that), but I’m actually feeling so ill and worried for y’all. I think it’s time for me to block/unfollow any American accounts and news cause shit’s about to get really fucking bleak.

Ugh make it stop. Watching this past BC election was stressful enough.

The sad part is, as much as I hate PP, I’m so mad at Justin and the libs supporting him for not smartening the fuck up on this. People don’t like you, move the fuck on so that your party has a chance FFS. (But for the love of god don’t let Christy Clark step in lmao) 😭

Similar situation but I was at a work event sitting next to a colleague I didn’t know very well. We work in IT so our boss had placed a bunch of fidget toys at each table. After maybe 10 minutes of us being there, she grabbed one and said “here, you need this”.

It did actually help me that day and now I just carry one with me or else just stim with my jewelry, which I hadn’t noticed is something I do until that day.

I am trying to get diagnosed as an adult and recently reached out to my parents for symptoms from when I was younger as those are necessary for adult diagnosis. My mom had pretty much the same reaction as you when I went over the symptoms. Lol ADHD is genetic.

Actual food? Probably yogurt at like one or two months. It had been sealed up until then.

I’ve had table syrup that was at least 4 years past the expiration (it actually still had the aunt Jemima on the bottle is how old it was).

A few days ago I finished some baking powder and my partner brought a big bottle home and I was like “oh it’s okay that stuff doesn’t expire!” Then I looked at the previous container I had and found out it had, in fact, expired in 2017. Don’t think it affected my baking though.

I mostly just eat stuff without looking at the dates unless it smells bad or is moldy.

Quads was fucking wild. I remember watching it in between Undergrads and the Oblongs. The wonders of having both parents work night shifts.

Chris Meloni’s character in Happy is actually just Stabler. His whole backstory as a disgraced cop is essentially really him (I think they even show a picture of him right out of SVU) but he had to change his name for protection.
