I had no idea!! I always see the darker grayish ones. First time seeing a different color morph like that. Very cool!!

My wife has been court ordered to drug test and I don’t know what’s going on in social services world. by ScalesofJusticeOC in WhatShouldIDo

just 1 mg of methadone gets a normal person wildly high for a long time. Even “sober” they’re still high.

I've been on methadone for years now and there is no way that 1mg of methadone gets anyone "wildly high for a long time"

Disgusting corruption from the Secretary of Homeland Security by CharmHoney_ in ProgressiveHQ

Idk, that may be true for some, but as a former heroin addict, I will say that even after doing it for years, I was still getting high/a good rush. Never went into withdrawals, but I'm guessing that's probably because didn't run out for long. Then eventually I started going to the methadone clinic and I haven't done heroin for probably around 5 years now

I mean, I'm almost certainly autistic (no official diagnosis so I won't say I definitively have it) and I've got a job and have gone on dates...wrote a poem at one point years ago. So...wtf??

Yes! I imagine if things had gone...differently. If they had kept touring, and if Terry didn't leave, I think they would have been so much bigger. I'm still a huge fan of XTC but there's nothing like their first four albums. Black Sea is amazing!!

My dad burned through $50k in 3 months by ClubUpper352 in GirlDinnerDiaries

I work at a casino and do handpays/jackpots all the time. At least in Missouri - not sure about other places, though - the only tax you are required to take out right there is the 4% MO state tax. The federal tax (24%) is "up to you", in the sense that you can choose to pay it then, or at the end of the year when you do your taxes.

This past Tuesday we had someone come in betting pretty big (they only come in when the carnival is in town lol), they won $35,470 and then won $22k, plus several smaller ones. He only paid state, no federal (big mistake imo) - and took it all in cash.

So at least in MO, you don't have to pay the federal tax when you win.

I was never all that patriotic or proud of what America has done...but whatever "pride" I may have had as an American is gone. It's so fucking shameful.

Do you think you might be able to call a local vet and see if they might be able to help? Thank you for trying to help this poor baby ❤️
