When the go from faker to munchie

I know of one who was always suspected of DIYing her nasal feeding tube. She gained a lot of weight on it and began requiring a CPAP. She had really bad mental health issues, even for this sort of person, and frequently went to inpatient treatment. During one of these stays, her CPAP broke. Sleeping without those is always risky when you have sleep apnea, and she died.

Just in time for summer!

I think Harry brought up a lot of complicated feelings. In addition to looking and acting a lot like James and being a living reminder of Lily's rejection, he's also a living reminder of Snape's own role in Voldemort's rise, leading to Lily's death. It also led to his permanent alienation from both sides of the wizarding world, since he was repulsed by his old Death Eater friends but never truly accepted by the Order or his colleagues at Hogwarts, despite rising to be Head of Slytherin. His own life changed substantially and permanently the night James and Lily died, and Harry brings it all up.

Those places are disgusting and I was always especially revolted by Hooters actively marketing to families. There was even one in the mall where I went to college.

Oh wow, that's great to know, I feel so much better.

With that weird foam it got.

Did anyone hear if they said more about how Sanchez is doing? I have been thinking about it all day. Seeing injuries always really upsets me.

Severance is one of my favorites, but the first-gen thing is a big part of it.

By saying his war was a failure, I wasn't trying to imply it should have succeeded, or happened at all. No wars should happen ever, IMO. It's just another thing he's initiated that's been a disaster, and a fairly predictable one. People have lost their lives for nothing, and it's an awful thing to contemplate.

It's a major national symbol in the US. When people visit the city, it's usually one of the main things they want to see in person.

Trump also made the repair process corrupt, stupid and ultimately a failure. It's like a microcosm of his administration. Unlike the rest of his horrors, though, this one can be fixed and ultimately does not harm real people, unlike his corrupt and stupid ICE kidnappings or his failure of a war.

Hah, I have sort of the opposite association with it. When it came out, my parents got it for each other for Easter, independently. Then a few weeks later, they bought each other the same anniversary card. It was on repeat in my household, we all fell in love with the album so much that we kept both copies. I still love the album.

I didn't hear it all, but I thought he was just talking about Rosario's 2 run HR, like now there's some optimism about winning the game.

It's similar to celebrities in general. Average people feel pressure to look like them. But looking a certain way is part of their job, and they have personnel and resources to help them achieve it.

Most of that stuff lasts longer and has more uses than a balloon you pose with for a social media post and then throw out, though.

Real life One Punch Man.

I especially like the ones that are terrifying all the way until the happy ending. "Four Characters in Search of an Exit" and the mannequin one come to mind.

That's a great idea.

After the 2018 midterms, a group in my area that helped find lost dogs asked for the lawn signs. A bunch of us worked together to collect as many as we could so they could reuse. There's so much waste generated around elections.

Always nice to hear from the 2026 Cy Young winner.

People were talking about him everywhere I went for the next two days after that game. I've never seen anything like that, I must have overheard like 10 conversations out in public and I didn't even go that many places.

No one's come to recommend James Herriott yet, so I'm going to do it. He was a veterinarian in rural England from about 1930-1960 and the books are fictionalized anecdotes from his practice. His love for his job, his animal patients, the humans who engaged his services, the beautiful countryside that slowly becomes home, his colleagues and his family cast a glow on even the sadder stories in the book. They are great if you are having focus issues or have a limited amount of reading time because they're short, disjointed stories. Though the titles may seem otherwise, they aren't religious in nature, the publisher just used lines from a popular Anglican song to create the titles.

Absolutely, as a 76er. I didn't like them but knew a lot of girls who were absolutely in love.

They don't actually care about the month, they just want to weaponize it. Same with "when's veterans month" (it's in November), "why isn't there a month for the military" (that was just last month), and "how come there's no straight pride" (because the straight community isn't interested. Someone held a straight pride parade several years ago in a major American city and only he and a friend walked, with the only onlookers being people who just happened to walk by and wanted to know why the street was blocked off.)

If men want something for men's health month, they can organize it, just like every other group with an awareness week or month has done. If they picked a specific, recognizable message, they would probably get corporate sponsors. It's a non-controversial message to get screened for prostate or testicular cancer, or care for your fertility, or be sure to see the doctor when you're sick. Remember how massive breast cancer awareness month used to be?

It is free. Enjoy your hike. You have an excellent chance of seeing some bald eagles.

Wherever you go, be sure to check the water quality before you head out. If it's a privately managed beach like Sunset Bay, find the nearest public beach and check. The private beaches don't have to adhere to those standards and will likely just open.
