I wish I was one of those 10 people. Hell I'll take #11 even.

Trump plans on addressing climate concerns. He's already going to put RFK Jr in charge of health and he's going to ban vaccines. Reducing the population will help lower emissions.

Well an incredible amount is released every season, but just like in the 90s not all is watchable and then only a few titles will appeal to you. Freiren is a new one that I think is up there with the greats but maybe you should try watching some comedy ones instead. Have you seen asobi asobase, uncle from another world or the remastered ranma 1/2 yet?

I sometimes skip shows that I don't feel I can mentally handle at the time and come back to them later. Part of mental health is adjusting your life to help get your mind back in shape.

God damn, I feel so much shame for the way the Haitians there are treated. They first had to deal with a former president turning them into dog eaters and now have a police department that seems ready to watch them die. The only union that needs busting in this country is the police one.

My scale looks similar to this. If I leave it on it goes into sleep mode which still drains power slowly but turn on instantly as soon as there is weight on it. If I hold the power button when I'm done it turns off and makes a beep and then I have no issues turning it back on months later. Still on original batteries after 2 years.

I worked for an industrial auction company where I had to cold call plants that were being closed down or going bankrupt. These guys received dozens of calls a day from people like us while they were dealing with losing their jobs. Trying to buy all the equipment and profit on their ill fortune.

The goal was to be the first to call them before any of the other places. So once I had to break the news to the plant manager they were getting shut down. Sometimes the information was bad and nothing was happening to their plant but they still got tons of calls from vultures looking to pick their bones. It was a shameful job and all for just $32k a year. The owner had 2 rolls Royce phantoms and a private jet.

It always cracks me up when people say private companies can do the job better with less regulation. Most businesses fail and the news is constantly full of stories about fraud.

My 19yr old immortal kitty Orion was just found, nearly a week after he wandered off. He's old and his vision/hearing isn't the best. While I kept looking and giving all the neighbors flyers I was prepared for the worst. Nothing has ever loved me so unconditionally and I am so grateful for his return.

I still don't understand why they didn't take a European Swallow to Mt Doom but what do I know :|

Orion, 19/M, single When he was young he snuck into my engine bay (older wrangler with plenty of space), went all the way to work (1.5hr commute), waited all day (luckily in covered parking), and then popped out when I got home.
