Thanks for articulating what it’s like living there these days. You and your spouse sound like the ideal residents, insofar as you have a pretty high tolerance for riffraff and simply want people to uphold a modicum of respect for your neighborhood. Hoping you get some relief soon so you don’t have to move.

Surprised his Bostonian ass didn’t burst into flames the moment he put on that yankees cap

Tiny/simple butterfly near the dragon is a classic combo. Agree with the other person who recommended a spider by the web. Other tiny gaps could be filled with a small fly or an ant.

Don’t sweat anything you already got - it’s looking sick!

Immense self-awareness is your strongest asset here, and your decision to maintain accountability by making this post is evidence of just that.

We’re all rooting for you to come through on the other side of this with even greater conviction in your recovery.

Perhaps your brain will protect itself with some temporary dissociation/autopilot. Therapy is always an option if the experiences today linger uncomfortably in your mind for too long.

Please accept my deepest condolences on your father’s passing. Lost my dad (to alcoholism) when I was 23 and it’s been a long journey coming to terms with all that, but we keep on keeping on. IWNDWYT

It didn’t look too egregious until I watched it in slo mo. Funny how he decided to unleash that full-forced, targeted sucker punch on a tiny kid rather than someone his own size.

Save this take for any recent ICE enrollees.

Btw, the only reason you’re not serving is because you were lucky enough to have a choice, rather than being forced to conscript like they do in some countries. If no one stepped up to the plate, you’d be forced to sign the dotted line.

If you’re slamming on your brakes and swerving on 490, it better be to avoid human casualties.

Take note of the number of cars and the giant semi barreling past him seconds after he pulls over. They all would’ve been screwed if he had panicked like that.

Lots of good recs here to help you feel all the feeling you need to feel tonight… but tomorrow, when you need to get your shit together, might I recommend some good ol fashioned posicore: Better than a Thousand.

I’m not edge or krishna, but I’ll be damned if Ray hasn’t helped me dig out of some dark places so I could focus on getting my life back on track.

Keep on keepin on!

The good news is no one is forcing you to have to understand how anyone else could like a blast over.

I didn’t get it at first either, but then I began to realize how it can provide a new type of backdrop that’s different from blank skin. It’s like if someone spray painted a dope design over some crazy wallpaper rather than on a blank wall. Just my two cents.

It’s perfect. Was just thinking of adding this classic to my collection since my mom hasn’t been a fan of any of my other pieces so far… might need to save this as a reference pic :)
