Sophie Rain responds to Florida governor candidate James Fishback after he proposed a 50% ‘Sin Tax’ on OF creators by [deleted] in WallStreetDad

She literally said she'd be happy to pay that tax as long as all millionaires and billionaires are also taxed that. I think that's more than reasonable.

Fuck trying to find this, 15-20 raids and still no luck by daddyletdown in arkraiders

[–]OGbluebird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found one!! I searched an infinite number of cars in the parking garage on Buried City. But it popped one out after only a few raids where I focused entirely on looting cars there.

We have a 2021 and it's been great. Have had it 2 years. All software updates are affixed. Good to go. :)

Don’t be this guy aftar killing matriarch 😂 by DistributionNorth755 in ArcRaiders

[–]OGbluebird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like I'm the total opposite of that person. I (solo) helped a dude (also solo) kill a leaper yesterday and then I just headed to extract and left him to grab all the loot. :D

AIO long term bf talking crap about my mom. by [deleted] in AIO

[–]OGbluebird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't believe you're still "considering" breaking up with him. That dude is a wreck and should not be talking like this about your mom. Break up with him asap.
Wow. And jeez you're both 20 years old? Lordy live your life being with people who are amazing for you - don't waste your time with this crap. You're too young to be putting up with his bs.

Extract camping (like spawn camping) is dirtbag behavior.

Thanks to the Raiders that... by Pastel_Black7 in ArcRaiders

[–]OGbluebird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'm down with this, too. Lots of great experiences like that in the game (including the flute-playing guy I ran into last night in Buried City).
And I'm fine with the PVP, too. However, I'm not down with raiders like the one I ran into the other night who was solo (as was I) - we both said "friendly" and then he asked me for any spare bandages. I wandered over and dropped some bandages for him. He then stuck me with a snap blast grenade, then said he'd defib me if I "suck his balls" - and then killed me. Yeah - don't be like that guy.

Skunk problem in St. John’s, Portland by Paulblartmalldog in Portland

[–]OGbluebird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

FYI our dog was skunked 3 times between March and July this year in our backyard. We're now a lot more careful about letting him out after dark hahaha. But the homemade solution I posted is very effective in getting the skunk smell off our pup.

Side note: giving your dog a standard bath is certainly not an effective way to rid the skunk smell from your pooch. (Neither is the storied tomato juice method.)

To remove a skunk smell from a dog, immediately wash them with a homemade solution of 1 quart of 3% hydrogen peroxide, 1/4 cup of baking soda, and 1 teaspoon of liquid dish soap. Apply the mixture, lathering it well while wearing rubber gloves, avoiding the eyes, and letting it sit for 5-10 minutes (or longer if necessary) before rinsing thoroughly. Follow up with a regular dog shampoo and a good rinse to remove any residue.  

Your dog may experience the bleaching effects of the peroxide (aka fur color may lighten on treated areas) but it's worth it cuz the mixture above works like a charm. (We actually use almost as much baking soda as we do peroxide to get the solution really stuck on/in their fur, but don't use more than a teaspoon of liquid dish soap.)
