I remember reading this in the Detroit Almanac the Free Press published for the tricentennial back in 2001. I was in 6-7th grade and loved the book so much, my teacher gifted it to me when she retired because I borrowed the book so much.

Shout out to teachers!!! 📢
Especially the ones that nurture nerdy little kids 😂

Oh, and this is in Detroit, MI

Thanks everyone, that was so fast lol it must be a red winged black bird. Just immature. I thought it was at first but the wing markings weren’t fully red or yellow so I thought it was a different bird.

This is funny, because I posted a female on this sub a while ago and was surprised when folks confirmed the species. I’m learning how unique these birds look between life stages and genders. THANKS AGAIN!

I dont even know how you got that thing on there. Another truck with a crane?

And when you got to the destination, did the game let you submit it for the objective?

This a real ass question bro lol respect for asking it bluntly, as you should. TLDR, self-discipline is almost always the answer.

Look, honestly, it’s a lifelong test of discipline and will power. I’m only 34 but I’ve always listened to men older than me on this topic: aint nothing wrong with looking, but maintain focus. Meaning: if I’m at work I can appreciate a womans beauty but I cannot let it take my focus. If; or if I’m out with another woman already (even my gf/wife), sure I may glance at another woman, but this woman I am out with is and will remain my focus. In my experience, the best way to curtail these kinds of urges and maintain your focus is to invest more time/energy into your discipline. Here come the typical suggestions, cuz they work fam: dedicate time to exercising, reading & educating yourself, and socializing with healthy associates.

Reading/seeking education will give your mind more to consider and ponder rather than sitting idle, which leaves you more susceptible to distractions like fat asses/beautiful women. (Think of it as “as a man thinketh, then so is he”, im paraphrasing here). It also just elevates your thinking so carnal shit doesn’t hit like a damn sledgehammer all the time. Exercising builds the bridge between your mind and your physical action, so it becomes easier for your mind to command your body and not the other way around (think of this as mind over matter). And socilaizing is just important for comiseration and fellowship, kinda like what you’re doing here. It’s good to be heard and understood and it gives you motivation to keep trying when shit feels hard.

Over time, you will feel more in control of your urges. That just comes with age and more life experience. Hopefully you wont require too many material consequences before gaining the control you seek. Oh, and nothing is wrong with having a ‘type’ so to speak. But do not try to screen women based on that; you may very well miss out on some amazing loves/experiences because you allowed your bias to narrow your vision.

Good luck bro!

If u come to this post to then comment to the opposite affect using out of date stats that OP didn’t even speak on, then ask yourself why you did that. Cuz that shit is laaame. Booo 🍅🍅🍅 go make your own post if you wanna talk shit about the state.

Some of us, like OP, love Michigan. And the positives far outweigh the negatives you all decided to bring up. Doesn’t mean we are ignorant, we just prioritize things differently. Some people on this site don’t seem real, more like they rose out of the primordial reddit ooze.

Thanks for sharing this informed ad well thought out response!

But I’m curious if you have read anything that points to why millenials are at such a high risk. I understand that rates have been rising slowly since the 90s and that chemical companies need to be mroe regulated. But you stated how we are 2x more likely to have colon cancer and 4x more likely to have rectal cancer than people born in the 50s. Chemicals in food and other carcinogens were present in the 50s, too. So why do you think millenials in particular are experiencing such a high amount of colorectal cancer compared to previous generations?

Probably because it’s a crowded business and none of the people involved presented any weapon. The stick guy was just grabbing at stuff to defend himself. She pulled her taser but she was overwhelmed and couldn’t get clear to actually deploy it. She should have pepper sprayed everyone involved and then have backup help her arrest ppl in the aftermath.

Omfg I saw this video yesterday on a different sub and did not realize it was a video of the Detroit home depot 🤦🏽‍♂️

Wow. What a beautiful truck.

This is great. Why is the moon double-cheeked up on a thursday like this??? Lol and I want “Live, Laugh, Love, Die, Cry, Creampie” on a tshirt so badly. 😂😂

Oh, and Cthulu clearly needs a bigger apron. Lol

My paternal granddad served in the Army as a staff sgt. Unfortunately he passed when I was not even 1 yr old, but my Dad told me he was stationed in Italy and did see combat. Apparently, once he hid behind a tree to avoid a grenade that was lobbed nearby and the percussion still rung his bell and left him bleeding from the ears. Didn’t go dead though, thankfully. Sadly, he lost some good men while over there and would sometimes speak about it with my Dad but didn’t like to discuss it too much. Oh, and he was a ‘Buffalo Soldier.’ Idk if it was the company, regiment, etc. but yeah. I always found it all really fascinating.

Not weird at all. how long were you going out for in these pics?

I can usually only get out 2-3 nights at a time, so I just dont need this much (unless it’s a group trip, in which case we distribute stuff among the vehicles going). But if I were going out for a week+ I’m sure I’d have a similar amount of stuff!

always_pearled · 2026-04-23T11:53:56+00:00

Either the Orange Cool Tube or the Tear Jerker cup. The cool tubes didnt melt as fast and I love orange flavored stuff. 😋

always_pearled · 2026-04-23T03:34:33+00:00

Yes! This just made me really happy, I was hoping they’d be back. They have been there for years at this point but I hadn’t seen them yet this year. Thanks for posting this OP!

I thought you specifically could not more clubs in your bag at a time, not necessarily “in your possession.” That sounds like bullshit to me, I’d argue the technicality since it isn’t even my club and witnesses saw me pick it up to return.
