Being skeptical of a talking dog is not toxicity. Cut it out.

Okay, I'll bite. In your view- How does taking money away from public school to fund more religious schools help students?

[-] Bo7a@lemmy.ca 24 points 1 month ago

We are.

This idiot, however...

I know a single data point is pretty worthless. But here is our most recent experience.

When we suddenly lost one of our 5 year old brother cats, the one who was still with us got lethargic and very obviously wasn't himself. We waited about 2 months then brought two rescue kittens home about a week apart, and did a fairly relaxed intro for each before bringing in the next.

He hissed at both of them for the first 5 minutes when physical contact was allowed but otherwise he left them alone for a few days each.

Within a week they were sleeping together. Now they can often all three be found in a big furpile licking each other and he is back to his playful self. We considered not getting another friend for him. But we are so very happy we did.

Cat Tax: Batman (The older brother) is on the bottom left, Eddie Vedder Allen Poe is the one sitting up, and Skeeter can be seen squinting on the right as she always does when she is in her happy place.

This is the right question. Why not use both? Don't let any one source of news/media be your only source.

HN is good at what it is good at. And so is Lemmy :)

Our little house in the forest started out fully off-grid for the first year. As a result of that our ceiling lighting is actually 4 strands of solar garden lights wrapped around the rafters.

It isn't as bright as this aisle. But it is 100 individual leds strung up semi-randomly and has a similar feel.

It is funny how this works out. Up North in Soviet Canuckistan the guys driving f-series trucks are mostly all around 65 years old, have no lift, do 10 under the speed limit, and the box is beat to shit from being used as a truck.

The Dodge Ram and Chevy owners are the 25-40 crowd with cheap beer on their breath, and revving for nothing, while not having a lick of dust on their shitmobile.

I just want a global community of respect.

Some opinions are simply not worthy of respect. Like the opinion that there are two sides when it comes to someone's identity. Or that one race is superior to another.

Good. I knew too many of these pieces of shit living in AB. It is about time some of them get some comeuppance.

Haha, fair enough. I was just describing one way that 'standups' can be less annoying.

Prio = Priority. As in which task we were primarily working on. Blocker = Some lack of resources, skills, budget, policy, or infrastructure, that is blocking someone from completing a task.

Airbnb was good for normal travel for like two years.

I travel A LOT. After about the first two years it became obvious to me that unless I value my time at literally 0, a hotel is the better deal almost every time.

It might still be decent for getaways and places that don't have any hotels. But otherwise I would never even open that shitty site.
