I don’t know why, but “alonely” makes me think of this:

@Saccharomyces: Thank you, truly, for an extremely thoughtful and kind response to what was admittedly a bit of a flippant frustrated rant.
You are 100% right in all counter-points. While there are difficulties and barriers to getting help (both internal and external), when it’s important and needed you just have to do…

This is obviously going to vary between demographics and social circles, but as far as I’ve seen there’s very little social stigma left against therapy.
I’ll tell you what keeps this elderly-millennial man out of therapy:
1) It’s expensive.
2) It’s absurdly difficult to find a therapist - let alone a good personal fit.
3…

“Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It’s hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It’s round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you’ve got about a hundred years here. There’s only one rule that I know of, babies—God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.”

I’ve just always been amused by the whole yin-yang thing going on with VT/NH: up there like perfectly inverted reflections of each other geographically, ideologically, economically. I just want to mush them together and see if they explode like matter and anti-matter.

Until the last paragraph I was going to say that it made more sense to just absorb the population into Maryland, the same way the Arlington region went back to Virginia.
But I had no idea the population of DC was bigger than Vermont or Wyoming!

As someone that grew up in a considerably more arid zone, I always looked at Snow Days with considerable jealousy. If those snow kids could get a day off for snow we desert dwellers should get Sun days when it’s just too damn hot to exist.

Best coffee tin alternative I’ve found is the big 24/48 oz cans from stewed tomatoes or other sauce ingredients. Not resealable, but usually coated inside to make cleaning easy. Got these scattered everywhere to hold all my small miscellaneous items in kitchen/garage/office.

And if your style is more log cabin than colorful fabrics you can go to a big box home improvement store and get yourself some wood flooring samples!
Perfect size for coasters, available in an array of colors and patterns, mine have a rubbery backing that makes them anti-slip, and they’re engineered to be tough.

I’m a little late to this, as evil week is over, but if you were to brew those befouled coffee grounds would they carry the noxious odors with them, like a memory of the horrors they’d witnessed? And if you then replaced an annoying roommate/coworker/villain’s coffee with those bathroom coffee beans would that be a…

For a while, whenever my family was falling into a circular argument someone would let out a “We got Gators fans!” that always broke the loop.

I have always hated these dead-eyed little popgremlins. ...But this one might just get my moneys.

It’s a con, pure and simple.
It’s a way for the current administration to claim they are helping the people by giving them an extra bonus now, and if you keep Trump around he’ll make it so you don’t have to pay it back in January. But the bad socialist democrats will want to take that money back! And more! MAGAA!

Regarding “You don’t have to display everything at once”

Honestly, I’m more looking forward to hanging out outside in the cold than in the summer heat. I’d take sweaters and bonfires over sweating and mosquitoes every single time, no question.

At mine it was hydrogen peroxide for soaking and gargles. We had a special shot glass for soaking fingers in H2O2. Also good for cleaning any organic stains (we had easy bleeders in the house).

Unfortunately, grammar police do not make grammar law, they just enforce existing law. What you need is for the grammar congress to get off its ass and make some new grammar legislation.

This may be overactive head-cannon justifying bad writing, but I think the tape works perfectly well with the Adrian Veidt we know from the comics. Cue over-long comment:
