Oooh I hope Issa goes down with them.

I’d be totally down for this clause. If I ever get off my ass and write a will I’ll look into it.

Aw, dang, I am an organ donor and will happily give over my bits to an ill person should I not need them anymore. Wish there was a way to do a contingent donation - i.e. “If I’m in one piece have at it” with a “or if I’m not in one piece please do X with me.”

My church has someone assigned to handle organizing meals for those who need them (new baby/surgery/illness/death/etc.) and they use https://www.takethemameal.com/ to organize it all. Works great, especially for those who are less tech savvy (basically half of my congregation, lol).

A lot of my friends subscribe to the “one guest for every year of age” rule for parties. A kid turning 10 gets to invite ten friends, a kid turning 3 gets to invite 3, etc. It’s an easy way to reign in the guest list (some parties will include the guests’ parents though) and it seems to coincide with how many…

Something with high miles might be possible - my ‘10 with 96k has a blue book of like $7k but I’m sure there’s more worn in options somewhere.

Came here to +1 the Fit, as usual.

I agree with you wholeheartedly. My mom insisted on viewing my brother after he took his life - I wanted nothing to do with it. Instead, my last memory of him is of our happy visit the year before.

Plus it’s free.

Mamangabriel makes a good point, but too also consider now if you’d like your cremated remains returned to your family or not once your educational use has wrapped up. Some places do, and some just do a generic respectful scattering of ashes in a place of their choosing. A friend is making end of life plans (losing…

Don’t forget Play-doh and Slime. It gets everywhere.

Her videos are a delight - I learn so much about the most obscure things!

FYI - kubatons are great but are considered weapons in some places (airports, government buildings, etc.) so plan accordingly.

Disclosure: I’m a cynical non-parent but spend copious time daily around my nieces and nephews. I don’t even hide if I have something tasty - if they come around bugging for what I’ve got a simple “No.” gets the message across. And if they whine it’s “You’re definitely not getting it now.” Boundaries. Sweets are…

I had the same story with the cap to my washer fluid reservoir yesterday.

Yeah, Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays because I literally don’t have to do anything but eat. Maybe make a pie.

You just reminded me of the precision hold I have to have on my cat to get her into the bath without killing me.

This threw me off too. I know nothing about hair but it seems that going from blue to blonde with a box is kind of difficult. I suppose a professional could make it happen, but really.

He’s still trying to figure out what to say instead of “warmest condolences and sympathies”.

Nothing reminds me why I don’t want kids more than hours of undiluted time with them.
