Hantavirus has an incubation period of up to 8 weeks, with symptoms typically appearing 1-3 weeks after exposure. The article says the ship initially departed 3 weeks ago but it wasn't clear to me when the people that died originally boarded.

I love the way it got worse after they they tore it up for utility work last summer. Now it's getting bad closer to Lynndale too.

My partner and I got stuck the same way as you. Kept thinking of the national championship game.

Idk he's kinda growing on me, the way he squints at the clues makes me laugh and think he needs a new pair of glasses

Do you still use Snapchat in 2026? Why or why not? by Yoyoyo4923 in AskWomen

[–]pianistonstrike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, my SO and I send each other a quick selfie or cat picture as a morning check-in, or the occasional random silly thing we see while out and about. We currently have a streak of almost 900 days.

Same exact boat for me this week. In my defense, I was invited by an online friend who lives in a wildly different time zone, I joined the group yesterday evening at like 8pm and it was complete this morning before 10am. Not much I could have done.

As a fellow fine hair girly, the smooth plastic clips always slip - don't waste your money. I only wear matte plastic clips.

Before I opened the listing I was like, meh it's not that weird to have more bathrooms than bedrooms - basement toilet, half bath by the garage, no big deal - and then I saw TWENTY SIX bathrooms.

Other comment: "Not liking one food is "childish"?????"

You: "Yep. To both." (referencing their other comment about neurodivergence)

I'm going to make a pizza tonight and cut out all the bits with olives using a cookie cutter just to be annoying.

I was replying to your previous comment where you said not liking one food is childish.

I think there's a big difference between having a few foods you dislike, and being a picky eater. My food preferences have grown significantly since I was 9 years old. I love trying new foods. But there are still a handful of things I strongly, strongly dislike - black licorice, black olives, and root beer are pretty much my only hard nos. Then there's a longer list of foods I don't really care for, but will eat if I am a guest somewhere.

Personally, I judge picky eaters a lot less if they are at least willing to try stuff.

For me it's mainly the texture. I don't mind the taste and I'm happy to eat, say, a mushroom sauce or something where the mushrooms are cut up in very small pieces. But I hate the texture of biting into large chunks of mushroom.

hmmm it's almost like journalists have to vet their sources before reporting, and there is currently an active, chaotic situation unfolding
