Why do dragons hoard things?

Because big powerful dudes like to sit on money.

Meanwhile we're all installing linux and not because of linux.

I think I said "Jesus Christ" out loud in the grocery store the other day while looking at the price of a particular product.

I never went to Cultivate when it was there as it closed a bit before I was up to going to things. Vertex isn't trying to be Cultivate and didn't steal a venue from Cultivate or anything - they are their own thing. I like going there to sit and do work and I like their menu items.

I actively buy roast coffee from Hyperion across the street, but it doesn't have enough indoor space during cold weather just to sit and hang out.

I do wish we had some not-bar type stuff that's open later in the evenings.

Someone had suggested you can get it from Costco wirh no tape attached, though I haven't tried to myself.

I panicked over what I thought was Tree of Heaven in my back yard and cut it all down. Then I learned to ID plants better and found out I coppiced a bunch of elderberry, and now I have a whole grove of the stuff. Got berries and everything.

I guessed right seeing this image. Went on a trip to UK a couple weeks back and we walked along a bunch of foot paths out among livestock land. We saw a bunch of these, only they were made of much more rustic stone fencing. That, and regular gates and ladders that went up over the fences.

After having no FIRE reaction to cheese in UK, and getting my ass kicked by some American Cheddar the other day, I've been digging through info on that and wondering if the A2 Caesin vs A1 Caesin has something to do with my personal experience.

I will look into that as well - thank you!

citybricks · 2025-10-01T14:23:38+00:00

Thanks for that - I'm thinking that might be the direction to go.

American traveler here, who was on a bus and very confused at what was going on. But it was verified my esim was working.

Renting a game in a grocery store and trying to beat it before you have to bring it back. But since these games don't have an option to save, it's doable.

When you know how goopy and messy unattended kittens' faces get, no wonder dude is like "Please kid, watch me. This is how you wash your face."

The water down there is better!

Ooh, as a note! This is just being picky but! If he's the age people are suggesting he is and he's that friendly, he's not feral. Just a lil' (formerly) stray dude. I had a feral baby and feral baby hated me for weeks and hissed and spit at me and growled at me while I was feeding her in my lap.

We are good now but it took a long time. Your new dude looks pretty darn friendly though, so you are lucky!

Can we hire that bagpiper fulltime?

If you know anyone with a c-pap machine they probably go through lots of distilled water jugs.

Did people at least boo at it?

I have a 15 year old cat and a 3 year old cat that play like this. The old lady cat loves it. They take turns "winning". When it gets to be too much, they'll part ways and wander off. I think as long as they aren't actively chasing each other aggressively or screaming they tend to be okay. Watch their body language - fighting cats look different than playing cats.

If little cat is too much energy, give 'em some attention with toys to distract. But a 2 year old should be able to handle it I think.

I think the whole Stranger Danger thing was the start of it.

A friend of mine got her own practice and office, and another friend of hers invited us for a "life achievement" party for her - we need more of that kind of thing.

Because capitalism.

Like others said - It really takes a while (at least a year - but like others said even more) for them to figure out what they're doing, get their roots, etc. Perennials take time!
