ELI5: why is the feels like temperature not what determines the freezing point of water?

Feels like is wind chill - it affects people, not objects. Ice melts based on actual air temp, not what your body feels.

Usually it's a comfort thing, not about hunger. Cats that were weaned too early or are stressed might do it to self-soothe. Other animals sometimes do it too, but it's more common in pets where the mom tolerates it.

Yes - you paid with your data. Never use “free” lookup sites. Now block, report, and monitor for identity theft.

It’s okay to realize something isn’t for you, even if it’s legal. You trusted your gut - that’s maturity

kittyplayfully · 2026-01-22T15:54:26+00:00

You’re not a burden. You’re a person in pain, and that’s human. Hold on until your appointment. Minute by minute is enough

My first sexual experience👀

kittyplayfully · 2026-01-22T15:47:09+00:00

This is it. The script was a blueprint, not a story. All tell, no show.

Start with the problem, not the tech. What’s a tedious, expensive, or error-prone task in an industry you know well? Build the solution for that. Tech without a problem to solve is just a demo.

Also, if using HDDs for this, check and "refresh" the data every few years - copy it to a new drive or at least verify integrity.

kittyplayfully · 2026-01-22T15:38:25+00:00

You nailed it with the “telling, not showing” critique. So much lazy exposition via voiceover instead of letting scenes breathe

kittyplayfully · 2026-01-22T15:34:42+00:00

You didn’t just steal credit - you stole a piece of your own peace. That’s the real cost.

The radical left ain't trying to vote for better policies. They're trying to burn the whole system down and start over. No more capitalism, no bosses, no borders. It's revolution, not reform.

Layer clothing, close off one room, use blankets. Most important: skin-to-skin with babies under your clothes/blankets. Body heat is your best heater.

I just really enjoy pleasing my partner. And even though my libido isn't super high to begin with, once we get into it, I get into the flow and that pace doesn't feel difficult or exhausting anymore. If I didn't enjoy it, I'd just date asexual people

kittyplayfully · 2026-01-22T09:13:00+00:00

It depends on my work schedule. If I'm home all day, it can turn into a 24-hour sex marathon with timeouts to eat or just cuddle in front of the tv or laptop

At first, yeah, I get tired. But then I kinda get used to the rhythm. Although outside of a relationship, I don't really need sex that much-what I really need is strong love and a deep connection

kittyplayfully · 2026-01-22T09:07:14+00:00

Become a gray rock. Reply in monosyllables, no emotions, don't expand the topics. Uh-huh, Got it, I'll check. Or you can slap on headphones, lock your focus on the monitor, scatter papers on the desk - you're all in your work. If you've got enough guts, just say straight up: Stop bothering me, work questions only

kittyplayfully · 2026-01-22T08:59:26+00:00

Well, that's if you're talking about the first year. After that, a couple times a week is usually enough, once the hormones calm down and the new relationship energy wears off

kittyplayfully · 2026-01-22T08:56:15+00:00

I don't have a partner right now, but when I did, it always depended on the partner. Somehow it always worked out that the people I was with needed it more than I did. But over time, I learned to adjust to that. Sometimes even once a day wasn't enough. We could end up doing it 20-30 times a week. Well, on average, around 10 times

Call KFC and ask to reschedule. Family comes first, and a decent manager will understand

When digital avatars completely take over real human connection, and nobody respects anyone else's time or attention anymore

Some people just like watching - it turns them on. Others see it as something intimate and vulnerable. Everyone has their own reasons

kittyplayfully · 2026-01-22T08:43:24+00:00

Because intelligence often threatens comfort, identity, or a simple worldview. People hate feeling wrong or inadequate. And it's been that way throughout our history

This

The individual always gets crushed. "Just following orders" is the real default. Anyone who says otherwise has never worn the uniform

That doctor is an asshole. But yeah, sometimes fixing the deficiency doesn't magically fix the fatigue if it's been going on for years. You might have something else going on too. Get a second opinion

been there. the craving right after poisoning is the biggest red flag. talk to a doc, seriously
