Something about the simple elegance of "Todd Bonzalez" gets me every time.

It doesn't look like a particularly high-quality aquarium set, but all the necessary parts seem to be there. Even before getting this thing, I've thought about keeping dwarf frogs. Would a 5-gal. tank be big enough for two or three of them? If not, what would you suggest? I've kept aquariums before, but it's been a very long time and I know myself well enough to know that I need something relatively low-maintenance.

I want to see part 2, too!

Poor little no-neck dude.

It kind of looks like a simple wholecloth quilt, or at least a comforter done in that style. If nothing else, you might try searching for quilts instead of comforters or blankets.

Your question is really vague; I think that's one reason people are having a hard time answering. What do you mean by "lifestyle"? Can you give some specific examples of areas or ways in which you want to apply science to your everyday life?

I don't know how @HonoraryMancunian@lemmy.world would classify it, but I'd classify it as pretty obvious JAQing off. Hope that helps!

I wish I could speak Finnish. But, actually, there are tons of languages I wish I could speak. All of them, really, but Finnish is the first one I thought of just now.

I'm in the US and English is my my primary language. I studied Russian but have forgotten a lot of it. I know a few words of German and French, but very few.

Edited to add: Please tell me what your primary language is. It would also be interesting to know what other languages you speak, if any, and where you currently live.

Well, it finally happened and I got COVID. (So angry... ) Luckily, my symptoms have been relatively mild -- but, that being said, I still feel like total shit. But at least I'm not in the hospital or anything like that.

I've been on HRT (estradiol patch and periodic progesterone) for about a year and they've been doing a pretty good job at helping with peri symptoms, but I feel like I've started having hot flashes since getting COVID. Has that happened to anyone else? They feel like hot flashes and not "fever heat". I was feverish a couple days ago, but I don't think I am now.

I definitely have more brain fog and fatigue, too, but those I'm less surprised about.

Seizing the opportunity to mention one of the best websites ever: The Online Etymological Dictionary. Here are their entries on "rap".

I grew up in "very rural Midwest, USA". My hometown's population is less than 5,000, and it's the biggest town in the county. Some other have already covered the "invisible" jobs that are everywhere, but here are some more examples. If there are houses, there are realtors, builders, inspectors, insurers, landscapers, and service techs (think plumbers, electricians, etc.). Aside from the people you see working in stores, schools, hospitals/doctors' offices, etc., there are the people you don't see most of the time like cleaners and maintenance people. Even the tiniest little "town" usually has at least a gas station and/or bar, even though sometimes they're the same place. There are also police officers, sheriffs, lawyers, judges, and other city/county officials.

Someone mentioned truckers, and even though my hometown was nowhere near any sort of metropolitan center, some independent OTR truckers lived there. And speaking of transportation, cars/trucks are obviously important in rural areas, so you've got new and used car dealerships, mechanics, tow truck drivers, etc.
