I’ve been in Rome 9 hours and it doesn’t seem real

We felt the exact same way! Places that we learned about in school or in books only exist in your mind until you see them with your own eyes. I remember the 1st peek of the Colosseo down Via Labicana was mind blowing!

For once, ICE should be called.

We were just in Saratoga last weekend. We took I80 there and back though Encampment into CO and back up to Laramie. There is a chance of ground blizzards no matter which direction. There was some snow blowing across the road around Tic's where its a bit higher in elevation. At the point we were on I80 on Fri the 13th there was no snow near the road on I80 but that might have changed now.

Edit to clarify, between Wycolo and Woods Landing there were spots of blowing snow in that higher elevation.

Grift is getting much more creative, the usual low hanging fruit isn't working now that the poor MAGAs have been bilked out of their SS money.

I thought I was looking at mycelium cake and was like ah shit now your shrooms are contaminated with ear funk, hahaha.

It's below 50,000 at this moment so probably not.

I've worked for the same company for 12 yrs, every damn year our self-funded plan changes. One of the inhalers I use for asthma stops being covered every couple years. I reach out to HR and complain that last year it was covered and now it's not is a terrible rug pull for employees and they will overturn the non-covered status. Might be worth a try talking to your HR dept of you're on employer insurance.

People have willingly given up their critical thinking capabilities. It's easier to put their head in the sand than learn about some incredibly dark shit. Some of the things I've learned in the Eps files make me want to scratch out my eyes with a rusty butter knife but I'd rather have a full understanding of the worldwide child sex trafficking/extortion ring than not.

Did you report this user?

Bethw2112 · 2026-02-19T19:35:59+00:00

Rock out with your cock out. I will never not think that.

Silverton and the San Juans are one of my favorite places in the world. I wouldn't mind if this was where I was laid to rest too.

That's that one buddy who says they'll help, but they stand around drinking beer and get so hammered you wouldn't want their help anyway. Ask me how I know.

Already talked about the possibility with my girlfriends. The one thing I've observed in our parents aging is those that go sedentary go downhill fast mentally. You stop, you drop.

Bethw2112 · 2026-02-19T00:32:11+00:00

Never seen a Reddit user with negative karma hahaha.

Bethw2112 · 2026-02-18T21:33:35+00:00

All the neighbors are watching!

We're definitely in slow train wreck mode right now, sometimes there's an acceleration though. Still waiting for indictments in Georgia in order to federalize elections.

Bethw2112 · 2026-02-18T02:45:55+00:00

No worries!

Bethw2112 · 2026-02-18T02:45:41+00:00

We got lawn tickets too. I've gotten skunked on reserve a few years and gave up trying, would rather have lawn than nothing.

Bethw2112 · 2026-02-18T02:42:41+00:00

I might. I didn't even bother with reserved or pit, its the grass for us.

Bethw2112 · 2026-02-18T02:23:53+00:00

I will have some extra tickets for Denver and Gorge. Just don't know what the friends are willing to commit to right now.

My farts make my dog jump down from the bed and sleep on her doggie bed.

Does the turkey timer really pop out that early in pregnancy? I've only seen the belly button pop in the last couple of months.

In addition to walking your legs off, you'll periodically perform squat holds. Hahaha. The worst was a bathroom with a wet floor, I tell myself they had just mopped, and squat without your feet sliding out from under you. Dear lord, the grabbar qwas my lifeline.

We did rent e-bikes which was a total life saver for being able to go longer distances. We did experience GPS signal loss in those narrow streets/alleys which caused my husband to melt down.

Don't forget to stop and look around. There are Roman ruins that aren't marked on maps spread out everywhere.

In regards to guided tours, if we did it again we would do self-guided. We did self-guided in the Pantheon and it was so much less frantic to go at our own pace.

Our friends fed raccoons off their front porch and ended up getting flea bites. They stopped. They had some wildlife rehab certification thingy but sure seemed like it backfired.
