to the foolish doomer, it may seem like good things never happen but arguably more good things happen every day than bad. every breath you take, every day the sun rises -- these are all objectively miracles.

Never smoke weed more than every 4 days or it starts to build up in you and stops being really fun or inspiring and just becomes a dissociative lifestyle.

i dunno i've been playing Sparking Zero recently and they have made a point to show Yamcha getting rolled by.....

  • the saibamen, which are literally just plants that can explode (yeah yamcha sure you 'won' but come on.....you couldn't have gotten it off your back?? chump)
  • Cell Jr which is basically just a stronger saibaman (except they're grown from Cell :))
  • Androids

i would not call the man who loses to plants 'strong' he is objectively weak in the Dragon Ball universe of fighters and isn't even the top non Saiyan/Alien Z-Fighter, even accounting for the fact that most citizens of planet Earth have like a powerlevel of like 10.

can't imagine not being an unaffiliated voter so you can go "hmm dealer's choice" whenever you go to your polling station and they ask you what ballot you want

thanks babe I've missed you I'm watching the Muppets Movie rn and was gonna post The Magic Store...

Someday you'll find it, the Rainbow Connection...the lovers, the dreamers and...og-hex-bear

 

Don't you feel like a witness in distress from time to time? Is that just the way the roses fade? Do you want to find out? spongebob-party

not even in my top 3 Phoenix songs but its a banger

 

seriously what the fuck i've been to every hardware store within 15 miles searching for this rumored plate. What I really don't understand is why every coaxial wallplate I've come across is 1-gang which would be fucking useless for my purposes.

i spent 30 minutes today showing the poor Lowes employee who dared to walk up to me while I was investigating their aisle of Leviton the wallplate in my possession, the part of the wall I need to cover, and the coaxial cable that needs to be run through it. Sagaciously, this kinda cute man went "why don't you just do the 'build your own wallplate' and make one that size" and I was like 'wow okay what aisle is that' before walking over and realizing the goddamn build your own wallplates didn't even have a coaxial option.

kiryu-pain

i still don't fucking understand why the nomenclature is 'gang' for number of outlets/switches on a plate and I STILL DON'T HAVE A FUCKING WALLPLATE AHHHHHHHH

is my only option really about to be to just drill a hole into this wallplate or get a single outlet 2-gang wallplate and just have the coaxial cable running through the empty space like a straw through a donut....no...surely not....right??

 

so many other good covers of this song (Crash Test Dummies, Joan Jett, etc) but the slide whistle in this one takes it above The Replacements' original version dear god lol

No matter when it came, the wind carried the same thing...Death. But the winds that blew across the green fields of Hyrule brought something other than suffering and ruin.

I coveted that wind, I suppose.

no other incarnation of Ganondorf has ever been this cool. Wind Waker my beloved...

 

sorry to all my canines out there idk if that's derogatory to say but man I love not knowing what day it is, throwing up the contents of my stomach every time i try to get some amount of liquid or food in there, and my back hurting because all I've done for the past 24 hours is violently retch and curl back up for another 45 minutes to an hour in bed before starting the whole thing back over again. (thankfu

anyways i blame my friend for not telling me their roommate and their husband have both been sick for a week, spent the weekend hanging out at their house & only heard "yeah I've been sick for like 4-5 days" from either of them after I woke up on labor day feeling like ass. IF YOU HAVE BEEN SICK FOR A WEEK WHY DID YOU EAT OFF MY PLATE AT TWO DIFFERENT RESTAURANTS YOU FUCK GFDGHTGEHRWQH

CHAT MY THROAT HURTS NOW TOO FROM VOMITING ALL DAY econony

i am going to take a shower now please pray it soothes my throat and/or stomach and/or back thank you

 

The hearts of men are black with corruption and must needs be cleansed..

I call out to the skies.. and tremble as the brilliance of a thousand bolts blinds mine enemies and tears their flesh asunder!

Seven shadows cast, seven fates foretold.. yet at the end of the broken path lies DEATH and DEATH ALONE.

Open your eyes to the darkness and drown in its loveless embrace — the gods will NOT be watching.

 

i just think its extremely funny...especially because the towing company they called has a suspended business license (waow-based) and the police basically went shrug-outta-hecks 'sorry we can't make them give you your car back for free' when people called them lmao

fast food/retail workers across the country, why haven't you told your most hated regulars that they can park their car in your lot & get them towed???

asking because I heard a story about it on the radio when getting lunch and I thought it was the dumbest shit I've heard all day. people are paying $50k to clone their dead dogs?? bro they are like $50 at the pound just get a stray....

the researcher being interviewed relayed a story about how this woman got her pet horse cloned but, upon the clone's birth, she was like "uhh I expected you to keep it until it was at least a few years old?? i don't want a BABY clone" ngjrgthjrdgfh

Paris Hilton cloned her chihuahua into two dogs??

no one knows where they get the 'breeding' dogs?? apparently they 'rent' the dogs from breeders across the country?? and also 'rent' the egg donor dogs?? seems pretty fucked up!!!

anyways here if you're interested: https://www.viagenpets.com/

this is the specific NPR podcast I was listening to on the radio (it's the most recent 'Should You Clone Your Dog'): https://www.npr.org/podcasts/478859728/think

the researcher's article in the New Yorker which is also a good read: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2024/07/01/would-you-clone-your-dog

It’s possible to see dog cloning as merely an extension of what is already a bizarre and highly unnatural process. In Fort Worth, Texas, I met a clone of a dog called Eudoris. The clone’s owner, Jeff, who didn’t want his last name used, was on the phone as I approached, but Eudoris 2—or E2, as he’s known—turned to look at me. His body was shaped like a German shepherd’s, but he lacked the swayed back of the kennel-club German-shepherd lines, whose hind legs buckle in a way that people liken to frog legs. E2’s face was more vulpine, too. I made a sound of greeting to him, and he folded his ears back. Within half a minute, he had turned his rump toward me beseechingly, the universal dog body language for requesting a scratch above the tail.

The original Eudoris was a mix of a Belgian Malinois and a Dutch shepherd, and had been bred by Joshua Morton, a trainer of tactical working dogs, who felt that Eudoris was the ideal specimen. He had ViaGen clone him, and not just once. Thirty-five clones have been made from Eudoris so far. Jeff got E2 as a protection dog for his wife, who travels frequently to compete in rodeos. E2 was their second Eudoris clone. The first, E4, drowned in an irrigation ditch four months after they got him. Jeff and Morton felt that E4 was so special that they sent some of his tissue to ViaGen. Since then, Morton has used E4’s cells to clone yet another line of dogs, which he dubs the Red Squadron Myrmidons, called M1, M2, and so on. “The DNA of M1 is the same as the DNA of E1 through E-whatever,” Jeff said. “And the same as Eudoris Actual, the biological Eudoris.” Hearing his name, E2 began wagging his tail.

bro cloned his dog 35 TIMES??????????? 'drowned in an irrigation ditch four months after they got him' is doing a lot of leg work in that last paragraph.

anyways, discuss - would you clone your dog/outdoor cat after it gets mauled by a coyote or tire/horse/ferret???? why? is this not real 'All that is holy is profaned' hours???
