I guess I thought Tim Allen’s lack of charisma and sex-appeal was the point. At least, I had pretty much the same opinion of Shatner’s Captain Kirk.

That’s....actually kind of a scary story. Glad they brought you back.

What makes even more horrific is that generally in these cases they are punishing the woman for something one of her male relatives did. I don’t think this article described how truly despicable this case was. From one of the linked articles:

Oh, I liked the island itself, especially that lovely center lagoon. There’s just something about the massive ocean depths that I find disturbing.

I did a slow zoom out on that, one click at a time. There was something primally terrifying about the massive amount of black/blue depths that slowly swallowed up that tiny island.

Oh, she met Neelix. Now I understand her decision to stay on boring, 3-city new Earth and not go adventuring on the long journey back to old Earth.

I just keep a handful of individually packaged foam earplugs in my purse now, recently bought a whole box of them. It’s the only way I can watch a movie now, and I can understand the actual talking/dialogue a lot better with them in. I’m probably a little bit on the spectrum. They’re reusable, but I like the…

lots of cat hugs!!!

Condescension is a special form of deniable abuse, isn’t it?

Sorry your year has been so bad! Also, if you have Amazon Prime, this is a great relaxing video with soothing music and videos big cats looking happy and peaceful. I like to just leave it on.:

That looks like such a beautiful place to live. It’s like these people are just trying to make themselves unhappy.

1990s, so not really, but maybe? In all fairness, she was probably still in training or not far out of it when we had that conversation. But that was still very much an era of doctors’ unspoken assumption that patient’s complaints of pain were 90% whining. Not sure that era has left us yet. (I have a lot of doctors in…

So much this. I had a friend who couldn’t believe that bad period cramps can keep me up at night and will wake me from sleep. She acted like she had never heard of such of thing. She’s an OB/Gyn. Ugh.

I’m loving that the most of the comments here are just about this and the “ston len.”

And no matter what, never spray your body or clothes with elk or deer scent.

Hah, I spent most of the video thinking about how my first thought whenever I see him is how I wish my skin looked as good as his. Can’t think of any other man, no matter how pretty, that I envy his skin like that.

No safety gear on the athletes, but there are tons of cushioning mats and nice big pools of water wherever there’s a risk of a significant fall, not so much of that with this course.

As many times as they will let me :). They also actually really like to have their bellies rubbed and brushed, which I love.

These are my floofy kitties showing their floofy bellies. They make me stupidly happy, and I don’t have much else to be happy about right now.

I have two spoiled floofs, and it’s probably best that I rent and am limited to 2. Wish I could live the 12-floof life, too, but only if I could afford a full-time person to vacuum, wash blankets, and brush/groom the cats. I can barely keep up with only 2 floofy hair factories.
