the ‘soup’ typo is perfect here lol

Life is suffering

I’m curious about your preference for spaghetti with alfredo sauce. Why not fettuccine?

“Right to die” is a medically assisted death that is available in certain places around the world. If you can’t make peace any other way, moving to a place where this is an option may be the most helpful thing for you.

The problem is that cats can’t evaluate risk the way humans can. A cat may choose to go outside, just as it may choose to run across a road, approach a coyote, eat something toxic, or wander onto someone else’s property. We don’t usually treat an animal’s immediate preference as the final authority on what’s best for it.

A cat wanting to go outside isn’t evidence that unrestricted outdoor access is in its best interest any more than a dog wanting to chase traffic is evidence that traffic is safe.

Now that you mention it, I’ve never wanted anything more in my life 🤤

Don’t split the pole around me.

Agreed with this. I love cats and want them to live long, safe, and happy lives inside.

Honestly your cat may have backed the fox down a little bit. If the cat runs, the fox immediately goes into hunt mode and the cat is prey. If the cat stands its ground, the fox might have been debating whether this was worth it or not.

Kind of Americana/nostalgia but The Andy Griffith Show really does this well. In fact, I feel like a lot of the older shows from the 60s did this.

For real. I guess the only thing slightly more terrifying would be not fixing it while in the middle of the Atlantic 🫪

Crack a book open. If you want to get real wild, take out a notebook and pen and write some stuff down!

I read the first trilogy of the Red Rising series by Pierce Brown recently and couldn’t put it down. I didn’t expect to like it that much but, that story really got me.

lol I immediately thought of this:

Truth. I drove with my knees so much when I had a manual transmission.

Yup, which is why I hate when engineers and the like yearn for a promotion. Like, stop. You’re good at what you do and you should be rewarded for that monetarily or with other benefits, but not with a promotion outside of your skill set.

In the tech world, I don’t think it’s weird that a team manager (not tech lead) would make less than their best performing employees but I’m not sure if it ever happens.

Same. Although MSFS 2024 has been a buggy mess for a couple years, it does scratch that itch for me pretty well.

The reveal is quite hilarious but the cop doubling down is just cringe.

It means she thinks their yard is safe. Big compliment from the animals <3

Doesn’t it basically cost you your life to get the free dose though?
