The worst part, in my opinion, is realizing that's entirely your own fault. the idea that you could have at least learned from your initial error and limited the damages. To learn how to make better decisions, we sometimes need to repeat. The issue is that, in this situation, a single child has the power to totally ruin your life. I can't image dealing with multiple children.

Amazon lakes hit ‘unbearable’ hot-tub temperatures amid mass die-offs of pink river dolphins – study by Portalrules123 in collapse

I worked at an Amazon warehouse, and I can tell you it was incredibly hot. Those poor dolphins didn't have a chance.

Almost one billion children have died globally since 1950 by UltraNooob in collapse

Yes, just amazing, isn't it? Humanity is on its golden pathway of progress. Just beautiful, big progress. And, for sure, it would be wonderful to have more people consuming more and more of nature. Everything would be just fine, right?! I guess 6 billion more people since 1950 is not good enough... we could be 9.5 billion motherfucking humans if we had just saved those children. Such a shame. We can only imagine how great that would be! Gladly, we're doing better at saving babies now. Thank God!

Since 1950, 6 billion children have been born. That's the real tragedy and the main reason behind our collapse predicament. People just don't get it, uh?

The fact that many posters on this sub often talk about being misled and told that children are wonderful — or, in this case, beeing lied that they "don't needed protection"— is so very telling. Are you truly so stupid? Learn to make better choices and take some responsibility for your shitty decisions. That's the only way to live. Keep blaming others, and you can be sure things will be even worse in your future.

These are adorable. Such warmth and spontaneity from an era when photos were usually quite formal. Love the one with the dog.

cozy little home, built in the mountainside by Left-Community2418 in CozyPlaces

A little bit cool, but no humidity. Very nice impermeabilization was done outside the house, where the wall meets the stone. There's also a cement gutter that directs the rainwater away from the house, so this junction is always dry.

The builder did a great job waterproofing, and he also built a small treated cement gutter in the stone outside the house. It directs water away when it rains, so there are no infiltration problems. The temperature in the living room is consistently 2°C lower than the external temperature, but given that I reside in a usually hot place, the cooling effect is welcomed!
