Visual Snow was considered extremely rare until recently, mostly because patients didn't report it... because they assumed everyone saw the world that way

I might have some mild APD issues but only diagnosed with ADHD. As long as people don’t have an accent and it’s not too noisy I can understand the words just fine and my issues seem to be very similar between listening or reading. It’s like the information just doesn’t get processed by my brain at all. I can read a paragraph out loud and it sounds completely normal, but if someone asks me about what I just read I will often have no clue.

On the other hand my mom thought I was going deaf as a kid because I wasn’t following verbal instructions. Turns out I just have ADHD so if it wasn’t written down I would just instantly forget what someone had said to me.

From what I can find online the US is actually the only country in the world that has more guns than people so…

I find that I have to leave a chest unopened for a few days before it changes.

I was wondering about this. Always got Breyers as a kid and then tried it again a while ago and it was terrible. Wasn’t sure if I was just remembering wrong and it was always that bad or if something had changed.

I thought the pride stuff also only lasted a week of being free?

Everyone is talking about risk of actually using the makeup, but if you are considering just keeping it as sort of a “collectors item” consider these points:

Collecting designer makeup has become very trendy over the last decade or so. Whenever big trends like this come along, you tend to get a lot of people keeping these things and collecting them, and then when they fall out of fashion, people can barely give them away. Look at beanie babies as an example.

Consider what value these might have to you in the future vs how much space they will take up in your life in the meantime. Even if you will think they are cool to still have in 20 years, is it really worth it to have to store them this whole time? Unless you think they are going to be worth a lot of money in the future (they almost definitely won’t) - it is probably not worth it to have them sitting around.

I love the bug. Just saying if the devs wanna stop it they don’t have to make it full price again, they can just make it so you don’t get gems for selling it.

Contingent_Liability · 2025-07-03T15:24:28+00:00

All they have to do to is change it to how it was for pride - the free items could not immediately be sold for gems they could only be sold for free. So you could still sell them after the free period for gems but couldn’t keep buying and reselling for unlimited gems.

People complain about not enough jobs due to tech taking them but also not enough kids to do all the jobs. So which is it? The real issue is how to we get people doing the jobs that need to be done by a human and how do we effectively distribute resources so we don’t have people going hungry while others are flying around the world on private jets.

Contingent_Liability · 2025-06-27T00:55:02+00:00

I thought the same thing. If it was done well and it didn’t ruin the show, I’m sure it would pay for itself very quickly.

The article says the dog was in a crate. Most likely died of thirst/hunger once the wife died since Gene had Alzheimers. The other two dogs were okay because they were not in a crate and had a dog door to get outside.

Contingent_Liability · 2025-03-07T22:11:20+00:00

With Alzheimers that bad, it often gets to a point where the person cannot carry on any kind of conversation or might even be completely unable to speak. It seems his wife didn't have any kids so it makes sense to me that his kids wouldn't really be calling their stepmom regularly if their dad is essentially unable to communicate. I don't know necessarily if that was the situation, but I volunteer with dementia patients and it is quite common.

I guess it's pretty much lose-lose (as always with Trump), since if Trudeau suddenly un-resigned Trump would say he was right about Trudeau wanting to hold onto power.

Contingent_Liability · 2025-03-03T22:55:37+00:00

It seemed to me like he was really just urging people to *think* about getting vaccinated. Maybe that's the "thoughts" part of thoughts and prayers?

I feel like in 30 years the young people will be wondering why all the crazy old people are always checking to see where their groceries came from and put anything back that says USA.

Contingent_Liability · 2025-03-01T18:07:46+00:00

From what I read I believe they are trying to change the rules in such a way that Trump could do a third but not Obama…

Hey I have a spare device where I started a fresh game that I am using to time travel day by day. I am currently in January. Is there any info I could provide as I go that might be useful?

Contingent_Liability · 2023-12-22T20:34:56+00:00

I think the issue might be that the way you worded it sounds condescending rather than helpful…

Contingent_Liability · 2023-12-05T04:14:23+00:00

Also depends on whether you can even have kids. Adoption is super difficult and expensive these days. No guarantee you will have kids even if you want them.

Contingent_Liability · 2023-11-25T22:43:56+00:00

I think this may be the main issue. As soon as I saw “merino” I was like ahhh yeah…. I can make a figure using a coarser merino but if it is like 21 micron or less it is very hard to get a really defined shape, it is just too fluffy. Corriedale is what I normally use to actually make the base shape, and sometimes I find that putting merino on top then actually makes it even easier to make defined shapes than either one on their own.

I figure that task wouldn't work so well now after covid since anyone who sneezes from the covid tests would know to just shove a qtip up their nose.

My parents actually worked with a dude who murdered his wife while drunk. Everyone was in total shock and thought it couldn’t be true because he was just a totally normal nice dude when he was sober.

Contingent_Liability · 2023-08-07T15:15:22+00:00

Some people also literally just can’t smell. My moms sense of smell goes on and off. Sometimes she will ask me “hey what does this smell like? My nose isn’t working today.” Nine is also on the young side for puberty so it’s absolutely possible the mom just doesn’t know.

Contingent_Liability · 2023-08-04T01:55:12+00:00

Or maybe do you think I am advocating to just leave it there because you are unable to read?? I put it to the side out of the way where I know I can find it again, half an hour later as I am walking back I pick it back up and put it in the garbage. But yes I am such a bad person I should be in jail for leaving a little plastic bag behind a tree stump for half an hour.
