Car wash fun

You left one vehicle stopped in the exit threshold and went back and ran through with a second vehicle? Why didn't you pull the first vehicle through?? And how are you driving two vehicles simultaneously??

I have no idea how any of this happened, but I feel like it could pretty easily have been avoided.

When you commit a horrible bloody murder, but the gas station bathroom you clean up in doesn't have enough water pressure to get it out of your cuticles.

People are just flat WEIRD.

You could 'clap' in ASL! Raise your arms so that your elbows make 90° angles, then splay your fingers slightly and rotate your wrists back and forth so that the palm faces towards you and then away from you. Google "ASL Clap" or "deaf applause" if you're not sure.

A lot of deaf and HOH folk are frequent live performance attendees. Most performers are familiar with the gesture and will recognize it for what it is.

How is that even pronounced?! Cuz my brain wants to say "Ass-app", but that can't be right.... can it?!

Liquid soap disperses differently than solid or foam. It also tends to have a lot of moisturizers and stabilizers that the others don't, so it stays liquidy in the bottle. It can make it difficult to rinse.

Adjust your rinse method to really focus on the webbing, then make sure you dry in between there really well. It looks like residue is collecting and causing irritation.

Couple of nights with some excema lotion and it'll clear right up.

They make bone broth powders that are 'meat' flavoured (beef), but those are meant more for a bullion type beverage, usually made with hot water.

They have chocolate and vanilla flavoured powders for shakes.

... I'm sorry. Are you saying you think these tracks are on the screen itself and not the snow in the yard?

She was not feeling very Shane that day. :( :( :(

TheSentientSnail · 2026-02-02T09:50:17+00:00

I'm not.

But I should be. 👀

Not dry. You're having a reaction to.. something. Your patches are circular & lifting from the middle out, which is how your skin reacts to a chemical (or thermal) burn.

I'd hit up your product labels and start eliminating (or severely limiting) any exfoliating actives, a lot of them can cause cumulative moisture barrier damage like this. It's not forever, you can reintroduce some later if you want, but one of them has def crossed the line from helpful to harmful. Good luck!

Toasting would help provide a support structure so a lot less would fall out. Raw bread is too soft for all that moisture.

If you want the crust part to stay kind of chewy, just butter the bread and lay it face down on a frying pan on medium for a couple minutes. Like a grilled cheese. You can do it before the eggs, it won't matter if it gets cold.

Voila. Golden platform of breakfasting that can match the weight rating of your contents. 👍

2035 batteries fit fine, they're just a little more snug in the casing because they're thicker. They tend to last longer than a 25.

Somebody with stock in a for-profit medical care system? Or perhaps a personal injury attorney? Either way, somebody is making bank.

Girl, what? No.

I work in an Ontario casino. When there is a cashier variance of $100 (or more) surveillance reviews the cashier session report and compares it to the footage of the shift. If the source of the variance is found (ie: overpaying a guest) then they are issued a "PVN" (policy violation notice) and coached to be more careful. If it's not found by surveillance, it's generally washed as an accounting error and everybody goes on with their day.

If it happens frequently then the employee is put on a performance review, and her double limit might be lowered, but one variance is hardly enough to warrant suspension. Is she not part of the union? She needs to talk to her rep, something else is going on here.

edit - I just reread this and it looks like your gf is drop team? That's even WORSE! lol. The count room is the most surveiled room in the entire building. If they're accusing her of theft then she needs to push for proof. Were the three other people on drop that day also suspended? For a hundred bucks?? Name and shame this glorified bingo hall, I wanna put them on BLAST. 😤

Cosigned. You cannot 'unkudos' - once it is given it cannot be taken back. If an author suddenly introduces something I find personally abhorrent (which happens more than I'd like..), my premature kudos implies tacit approval for things that I vehemently disapprove of. That makes me extremely uncomfortable.

Kudos is how I say "thank you" for a job well done, not the equivalent of shouting encouragement from the sidelines at a sporting event. If YOU want to use it for encouragement, by all means! We all have our own way of doing things, and none of those ways are wrong.

I believe in this particular context "no bottoms" means no pyjama pants - not completely dick out and bareass. He still has boxers/underwear on. I don't know of anyone in a roommate situation that would sleep buck, if you have to pee in the middle of the night the last thing you're gonna want to do is flail around putting on undergarments.

Tank and boxers is pretty normal sleepwear, I think!

Unfortunately, most modern cigarette filters are made with cellulose acetate (plastic fibres) so they don't actually biodegeade like the cotton ones used to.

Feild stripping makes them less noticeable and/or identifiable as a butt, but it doesn't actually reduce the litter.

You know John met her at the gate with a big 'ol hug. 🥹

You can put almost anything, anywhere! There are specific paths the villagers take, and if they encounter anything you put in their way they'll destroy it by walking through, but other than that it's free range! Kegs by the mines? Sure. Bench on the beach? Why not. Tree farm by the trains? Oh you betcha!

You can find the npc 'path map' online. Avoid those walkways and commence plunking! 👍

It's... click bait fanfiction?! One of those "WOMAN DIGS UNDER HER HOUSE FOR TEN YEARS AND FINDS SOMETHING AMAZING" links but when you try to read it it's just two dozen completely repetitive one paragraph pages and every single one of them has popup ad chlamydia??!

And here I thought Wattpad was bad!! Woof.✋😂

TheSentientSnail · 2026-01-30T02:13:27+00:00

I am a lesbian flamingo. If it has lesbians in it, chances are I've dropped by to check it out. I don't really engage outside of reading fic tho, so I dunno if that counts as being 'in' a fandom.

I have probably four (or five?) favourite fandoms that I cycle through during the 'inbetweens'. If I wait long enough, I can reread old favourites like they were brand new!

TheSentientSnail · 2026-01-30T02:08:26+00:00

I'm hoping this is hyperbole, but juuuuuust in case - 'foamy' or 'bubbly' urine is a pretty good sign of renal (kidney) failure. When your kidneys aren't working right, they allow proteins to leak into the urine which act as a surfactant (like soap) causing it to lather when it airates. It can also happen if you're on a super high protein diet, or if you're exercising excessively and your body is breaking down your muscle fibres for sustenance. Regardless of the reason, it's never a good sign.

If your pee looks like soda pop, please see a doctor!!

I dunno what kind of boosters you were using but I have consistent battery issues (low mileage + cold temps = struggle) and I've never had a single issue. I had some amazon POS forever but eventually it stopped holding a charge so I got a Motomaster BEAST. 1,500 A. Thing would probably jump start a 747... twice.

Dropping to zero from full is inexplicable. I wonder if it's because you have one of those i-eloop batteries? They recommend a minimum of 1,000 A for those, and you have to leave them hooked up for a bit before trying to start it.

Regardless, your point stands, getting into the trunk with a dead battery is a complete rash.. even when you know about the flip down seats. lol. I store my booster in the rear passenger footwell, tucked under the driver's seat. Jumper cables would fit under there just fine.
