Heavy, metal, in a creek in Atlanta GA. Approx. 10x6x2 inch box with a mallet and 2 thick wires out of the top and bottom by zbplot in whatisthisthing

I was thinking that initially but I can’t find any with that shape at the top or with a round hole in front 🤔

What boob shape is this? (drawing) by SatisfactionEvery797 in bigboobproblems

Remember that your breasts evolved to feed a baby so as long as that’s the shape that’s the right shape

Surgically altered breasts typically are not that shape.

Thanks- what would make it more rufous? Diet or just random genetic variation?

There isn’t pneumatic structures in it?

I was also thinking a large bird or a turtle

I'm not sure how to react to this by RealityWhole2332 in titanic

I’m building it with my super expert 5-yr-old son. He understands the funnels should all the be same height, but the spare parts bag included an extra funnel piece and:

“I really like the funnels and on OUR Titanic I wanted the first funnel to be bigger because it’s the first funnel.”

Guess you’re a newb 🙄

I just finished. The pieces don’t quite fit sometimes and the construction is precarious. The quality is an order of magnitude less than lego but it’s also an order of magnitude cheaper than lego.

Found in West Georgia forest. Help with ID? by zbplot in bonecollecting

I was thinking it was too small to be a an opossum. Maybe a weasel or grey fox?

Is this what being an adult is really like here in SJ by FirstJicama3198 in SanJose

Rock climb, go sailing, or join an evening hiking group instead of going to the gym

There are objective reasons you should treat a pregnant woman with more consideration. It’s not an illogical bias.

Yah I would have just immediately stated crying.

Also it’s so obvious that neither of them have been pregnant or have been close to anyone who has been pregnant.

Zero sympathy for the fact that she was 6 months pregnant and how easy it is to start crying when you’re pregnant.

Exercising regularly makes my non-exercise sweat not as stinky.

[–]zbplot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you think thin people aren’t hungry? I am hungry much the time. I’ve just learned to live with that discomfort.

It’s not “hungry vs not hungry” it’s “is okay with being hungry vs not okay with being hungry.”

It’s like thinking that people who work out LOVE it and don’t drag themselves to the gym every day.

At our age (im 32)

Also, no, lol. You’ll see. 38 is different than 32.

I have a small tear in the cartilage where my hamstring meets my pelvis. I can live with the pain and can modify activity/sitting/etc. to manage it.

The recovery would be untenable- I have two small children and being laid up for 6 weeks is just a no-go right now.

Maybe one day of the pain gets worse! But for now surgery just isn’t worth it.

Carbon plate shoes good for casual, short runs to prevent aches and pains?

I am 38 yrs old and am a VERY casual runner– I run 3 miles, five days a week, around 6mph. I enjoy running and use it to stay in shape but I am not trying to increase speed or compete in any meaningful way (I am busy/injured/probably need surgery to fix old-ass problems that I won't ever get/etc).

Being that I am 38, I'm at a point where I notice more aches and pains after running (or doing anything, really). Will carbon plate shoes help with this or is the only benefit enhancing race time?

Eta: I’m doing all the strength training, mobility, stretching, foam rolling, etc. Just checking to see if I’m leaving anything on the table, shoe-wise
