I want to stop ruminating about things I wish I would have said or some stupid thing I did say or why did I do that

Haven’t visited Reddit since I came here last summer. I love it here. It’s not perfect, but it’s ours

I mean to be fair, there’s nothing you can write on a bomb that makes it better

“Hope this message finds you well”

“Tell your mother I said thank you for the birthday card”

“Save 10% at checkout when you enter the code FREEPALESTINE”

When a person tells you that a loved one has passed, ask what the their name was and say it back. It can be awkward when that comes up and you might not know how to respond best. I’ve found that most people don’t want you to feel bad for them, but them saying their name and having a chance to talk about them is often a nice thing.

I’m in healthcare so death comes up a lot. “David. That’s a nice name. Where was he from?”

This is in Oregon and there is a hot springs nearby. It’s worth seeing but for a better time check out the French Glen Hotel and Malhuer wildlife refuge.

Also RIP Jessi Combs who died breaking the record.

Do conservatives just want us all to give in to our enemies? And then let them take Poland and eventually the US too? Bro. Some people's kids. The US has been at war in one form or another since the 50's. We have fought proxy wars against them as recently as Syria in 2019 and please don't forget that they are regularly attacking the US through ransomware attacks against hospitals, local governments, water bureaus, and banks. They are also attacking our elections through misinformation and bribery. They have directly threatened our country with nuclear war as recently as last year. If conservatives don't love our homeland enough to defend it than thank Biden for your safety.

I’m going to move it lower to the ground in an effort to attract house finches. Otherwise the sparrows will take it and they are invasive.

I got a bunch of seeds from it. DM me your address and I’ll mail you a few for free. I’m happy to share

I’ve been seeing those too. And one of them says “72 hour protection” like what? You’re not showering for three days but you’re just going to febreeze you vageeze and call it good ? Insane behavior

There are also some decorations of course. And a phone holder in cherry wood (but I’m using the phone). Got a salmon push stick, and the most important thing is a lid to keep dust out of my beverages.

Sorry if this is the wrong place to gripe about tired movie tropes. This is when the movie character will say something like “what was it that Byron said? She walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies; And all that's best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes: Thus mellow'd to that tender light Which heaven to gaudy day denies.”

You know what I mean? They pretend to not know before quoting lengthy poetry verbatim

They’re called “spaceships

Also how do I know if I’ve done it right? How is it supposed to taste? Texture?

American EV manufacturers are consistently cutting their production citing waning demand. This is obviously false since the US is blocking cheap imports, car makers have everything to gain by limiting supply and keeping prices high.

I was walking in flip-flops on asphalt when I sneezed. I opened my eyes after sneezing and my flip-flops were now behind me but facing forward and neatly arranged. What happened when I sneezed? Did I put my feet together, slide the backward to release the toes, jump up and then forward about 18”? All without noticing and in the span of one sneeze ?

Thank you Dr Kellogg

Wow I'm surprised to see people are actually downvoting you and arguing about this. It's common knowledge that the cost, impact, and build-time of new nuclear plants makes them a poor choice for energy. Not only is wind/ solar cheaper, it's faster to build.
