That’s super fucking cool, I would have thought the stuff would automatically enter in the possession of the state and that would be that. And maybe you’d get reimbursed for damage or a new home/property or whatever, but this is great! I wonder if the neighbors of these people in the article have started scouring and…

Yes. If you find it on your own land you own it. If you find it one someone else’s land you own half, if someone else finds it on your land you get half.

Wait, wait - so if you find some cool shit in your backyard that ends up being important and you are, in this case, the land owner AND the finder, you get to keep the bajillion dollars (or pounds, whatever) payout?

I believe the law attributes equal shares to the landowner and the finder. In the case of the Staffordshire Hoard (look it up it’s amazing) they shared £3.35m.

Did they find any more of these hilarious socks?

I don’t know about marriage, but no one is ever on the hook for a dead person’s debt unless they’re a co-signer.

The survivors can not be on the hook for the debt (although debt collectors will try). And the survivors aren’t under any obligation to handle the hassle of paperwork either. It costs money to get a copy of a death certificate and if a debt collector wants a copy they can go get their own copy. Although getting them a…

Thankfully, identify theft involving someone that’s deceased is pretty easily proven. Once the groups involved in my mom’s case received copies of her death certificate it was taken care of very quickly.

I deal with death claims and estates on a near-daily basis in a back-office operations role.

Is a crayon as visible though? Been a long time since I’ve seen one

Yeah- they’re not social creatures, so they get overstimulated easily and want to be left alone, even if they enjoyed the petting or playing a moment before. I find that most bad human-animal interactions are the result of us not paying attention to/understanding warning signs.

If a cat is hurt or scared, whether or not you know it, they’re going to act differently, and lash out when they normally wouldn’t. Cats can have internal or hidden injuries that you don’t notice just by looking at them. Or you could be fully aware they’re hurt, but you have to handle them in order to get them to the…

I’d swap out the sharpie for a grease pencil, usually brighter and can be used on almost any surface.

We live in a big city so the chances that we’re going to end up someplace where burying our poop is a possibility are slim. Further proof that it’s important to tailor your bug-out-bag to your own situation!

That’s ridiculous! Most women bleed, we know how it works! And if men don’t like it, they can cover their ears. What’s so uncomfortable about it, anyway? I’ve been spoiled, my husband don’t care, and will up pads for me by himself if need be. His male friends aren’t bothered by period talk either. Except one, but he’s…

There are dozens of places you can buy pre-made bug-out-bags and almost none of them (except a few special pink ladybags) come with menstruation supplies at all. It’s such bullshit. My office had a training on emergency preparedness and when I asked the FEMALE presenter about menstruation supplies, she said she had…

I’m unsure about this bag. I want one in my car for “It’s winter, and my car has broken down. Keep warm, keep fed, wait for help.” And one for every member of my family for, “We can’t stay at home, we’re staying at (insert one: the hospital because a kid is sick, Grandma’s because of a storm/power outage, etc).

I include a modern external battery - for any non-end of the world events (prolonged blackout for example), these are invaluable for staying in touch.

In addition to all this, I added a compass, cheap multitool pliers, dust mask, nitrile gloves, permanent, TP, and a sharpie for leaving msgs.
