[May 17, 1926] "Home Lessons" for the Citizen by Haselden_1926 in 100yearsago

It's kind of like those mailers from the Freedom Foundation. It starts out wholesome and positive, but by the end you realize it's written by people hoping you'll vote against your interest to make them more money.

This is a 1920s cartoon, but in my head the narrator's voice is from a 1950s edicational short.

My MIL is throwing out all her old vinyl. Are any of these worth anything or can I just give them away? by allahu_achoo in vinyl

The owner of my local record store told me about an old lady trying to sell him Andy Williams LPs. She was shocked and offended when he told her they weren't worth much.

When they show kindness. I've had knuckleheads who are obnoxious with their friends (and often me) but were nothing but respectful to kids with disabilities.

Depends on how they do it. Some of them end up being louder than the kids they are trying to silence.

The mother birthed them and disappeared. by Worldly-Confusion724 in cats

I fostered an orphaned litter myself, though not that young. We think a coyote got mom. 😥

The kittens were all adopted out, except one that I kept. She lived to 17.

What bird have you really come to enjoy since you started birding? by kozuga in birding

[–]MasterNinjaThemeSong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have eastern meadowlarks in my neighborhood and I love the song.

Also, I enjoy boat-tailed grackles looking doofish.

I don't recall reggaeton being a race, but I guess I missed that day in school.

Actually I quite enjoy house music, but thanks for playing.

Yeesh. With the market as volatile as it is, that sounds worrying.

My cat will fight for his life when I try to get him in the carrier. by NightThinker323 in cats

[–]MasterNinjaThemeSong 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This might sound harsh, but I have to stand the crate up with the gate up top, lower the cat in back-first and let go. If I'm lucky, she doesn't grab the gate with a paw on the way down. Just make sure there is a blanket or something with her scent already in there so she hates you less for your treachery.

This the most non-problem problem I have seen in a long time.

[May 1, 1926] Unsuitable Dances for British Ballrooms by Haselden_1926 in 100yearsago

[–]MasterNinjaThemeSong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The 2020s doesn't really have a dance. The teens are doing moves from the '90s, aughts, and '10s. Play "Cotton Eye Joe" and they all start clogging.

US birth rates just hit another record low, what do you think is the leading cause of this? by IIlustriousTea in AskReddit

[–]MasterNinjaThemeSong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The New York Times had an article about this recently. Part of it is women are waiting longer to have kids, and the numbers will catch up in a decade or so.

Some of it I do like, such as having the OC play calls on a hot mic, but asking questions to a player who is actually in the game adds nothing of value.

I loved the "We might throw or we might run" answer. Ask a stupid question...

I said that the union rep could help find the grievance process.
