My dog is the most cowardly dog I’ve ever met. All I would have to do is bring the toy he is afraid of. All the other dogs will either ignore it or want to play with it. But my dog will recognize the scary toy and cower. I got him that toy for Christmas and it was a really nice expensive toy. Same brand as all his other toys he loves. But for whatever reason, he’s scared of it. So I gave it to my parent’s dogs who think it’s just the best toy they’ve ever seen.
Chicago has been excellent about this. If the people say a bike lane is needed, they will very likely put it in. The only issue that really gets in the way is the privatized parking meter issue. We really shot ourselves in the foot with that one. Still, I only ever see bike infrastructure get better in Chicago every day. There are even some streets that are being made permanent pedestrian only areas which I’m stoked about!
It’s always funny when I get an email at work that starts with “Dear ____, I hope this email finds you well.”
It’s cool in here boy
Artist’s impression of a person without a skeleton… Or hair lol.
I mean… If it’s somewhere you don’t want to be…
There’s dozens of us! DOZENS!!!
I do the same to portion homemade sauces and such. I have a silicone cupcake tray where each cup is 1/2 cup of liquid. So I fill and freeze it and pop them all out into a baggie to keep frozen till I need them. Then I can make super quick dinner by grabbing a couple of pucks from the freezer and warming it up to go on pasta and grilled chicken.
This is exactly why, as a graphic designer, I’m currently trying to upskill into other areas. I have reached the peak in my career as just a graph designer and no one will want to hire me at my current salary. So for now, I work at a big evil corporation that can pay my salary while I learn skills that can maybe help me get a different job later at a higher salary. So maybe I can get a more morally sound job as something else like a project manager or something else boring, but bring my design skills with me that can help these smaller companies improve their brand and UX.
I remember watching a video about this. But I definitely prefer the taste of Mexican coke. Then it hit me, I think it might taste different depending on what material the packaging is. I have this same issue with coffee. I can taste if it was sitting in a plastic mug vs a ceramic one. So, theoretically, I think people might just like the taste of coke from a glass bottle.
You can also use “-fuck” which has the added benefit of removing a lot of the ads that appear. Because you know… They can’t be associated with that kind of search.
That’s exactly what we ended up doing. We have a rather large filtration system for the whole house.
Oh it’s worse than that. They simply don’t know who has them and who doesn’t. I know this because the house I bought 3 years ago and gut renovated had lead pipes and most likely had lead service lines from the main. We called several people to determine if the service lines were lead or if they had been replaced as part of one of the city programs. One of the guys on the phone said “What, you gotta problem with lead pipes? I grew up with lead pipes, you think you’re better than me?” I can’t make this shit up, guy was gatekeeping lead pipes. But long story short, we never found out and are just assuming they are lead 🤷
The last couple of years the earwigs have been terrible. They eat everything and my basil gets eaten down to the stalks. I’ve tried all kinds of things and nothing seems to work other than keeping the soil dry which only mildly helps. This year I noticed a spider hanging out in my basil plant. It kept getting bigger and my basil grew better than ever! Now I take extra care of my spider buddy!
Oh really? Here I am thinking you just show up to a beach and go to town 😆
I’ve always wanted to try to do something like this but I also have so many questions about the medium. Like is there a special sand/water ratio to get the best structure? Are there special tools you use to sculpt? What do you do about the extra sand you remove? It’s all so fascinating!
Maybe if it wasn’t such a pain in the ass to use apple TV, they could actually make some of that money back? I really wanted to see Severance and a few other things that were on apple TV. So we decided we would wait for season 1 to end so we could binge all the things we liked and then possibly explore what else they had and decide if we wanted to keep it or not. I have never been more frustrated over using a streaming service in my whole life. We were watching via browser and we tried several browsers and they all had the same problems. It just kept not registering that we were logged in and would make us go through tons of hoops to log in each time and would even lock us out of the account sometimes while attempting to log in again. For reference, this wasn’t a free trial or anything, we were paying for the service and it just didn’t work. We came back a few months later to watch season 2 and the experience was somehow worse. Nearly unusable. Why would I ever pay for that? So I think after this last try, we’re completely done with it. I loved Severance, but it’s honestly so bad that I won’t be watching season 3.
