I’m going to disagree. AKC registered pitbulls are probably swell pets. However, that’s not what’s ending up at the shelter. These are backyard bred dogs that have been bred primarily for aggression and fighting for mutiple generations now. Just look at dog injuries and fatalities. Pitbulls are responsible for 65% of…

Niche collectors cars are not Carvana’s market though. They don’t really want anything older than 10 years and definitely not over 100K miles. They want cars that sell quickly. I’m getting a stupid high trade for my 2013 Kia Sorrento. You’ll have better luck with a car like that on Bring a Trailer or Cars and Bids.

Not a dumb question! The 2 person ones aren’t that big, usually only 12ft long. One person would be fine in it. Best to check if the seats are moveable. Look at Sea Eagle for roomier ones. They get pricey, but the basic entry level ones can easily fit 2-3 people and aren’t crazy expensive.

Made it! Mine did not spread after sitting in the fridge a bit, 20-30 mins. They kept their rolled shaped so they were like PB poof balls. Too sweet with store PB and 1 cup of sugar. I’m going to cut it to 3/4 next take. Still, they were all eaten within 24 hours. Mmmm PB poof balls.......

Yes! This is especially something younger working professionals need to start doing. I see many companies doing crap flexible spending accounts where you have to use it or lose it that calendar year. You can’t even buy band aids and junk with it anymore unless you have a doctor’s prescription. Those plans are garbage. …

I get to use “Ok Boomer!" And how much was college 55 years ago compared to today? Cost of living? Cost of buying a home?

Let’s not forget that Trump also removed the restrictions placed by Obama on scam for-profit schools (like his name sake’s business school) that primarily target veterans for the GI Bill money and leaves them without an education or transferable credits. His Education Department puppet DeVos also implemented…

Also consider that once you’ve had work done on a tooth, most major insurance providers will not cover any further work done on the same tooth for 2-3 years. I ran into that issue when a filling fell out. I also ran into the issue of a crooked dentist trying to charge for a new cavity repair to the tune of $700. If…

Super embarrassing to be an Ohioan right now. This is the 2nd time this bill has been introduced. The GOP congress was educated the first time this nonsense was submitted about why that provision is not possible. Here it is again! Imagine if this passed into law (possible given our (Ohio’s) political makeup right…

THIS. My older brother was a nightmare to grow up with because he was allowed to do/say whatever he wanted to me. My parents allowed it and preferred not to get involved. They also blamed me frequently. I no longer have much a relationship with my parents and none with my brother. Actually, once my grandparents pass,…

I avoided The Long Walk on Overdrive because it was always available and sounded incredibly boring. A competitive walk? Really? That sounds dumb. Finally gave it a listen on a whim, and now I recommend it all the time. Great cast of characters and story development. I was hooked after the first few chapters. Really…

Also disagree. I was surprised by how much I liked it. I haven’t liked much of King’s recent stuff, and I got Doctor Sleep only because the ebook was a 1.99 special. I dug it! I also like how it referenced some Joe Hill novels I read (given that’s his son, but still thought it was cool).

I had a friend who used all the programs like planned Parenthood, wic, hud, etc. Her whole family took advantage of everything they could. Her husband’s family did the same. As soon as they did not need to rely on these services consistently, they started bad mouthing people needing “handouts” and “these services…

The craziest part to me is that’s it’s the low income and mostly rural patients that are voting for these kinds of changes to limit their own healthcare and other services. Is anyone else finding it harder to care about certain populations that consistently vote against their own self-interests?

Volunteers of America also has a backpack drive that gives students in need a new backpack with all the supplies they need for the year (so the teachers don’t have to buy their supplies). You can donate online to you state VoA backpack drive or create the kit yourself (VoA has a list of supplies) and drop it off ar…

I’m reading Gulliver’s Travels right now for the first time, and I’m pleasantly surprised how silly it is for being written in the late 1700s. I mean Gulliver puts out a fire on the tiny island by urinating on it, and then essentially becomes a terrorist for it (among other ridiculous things). I wasn’t expecting that!…

Right now I have a patch of poison ivy in the middle of my back that’s partially hand-shaped. My BF isn’t allergic and was doing some weeding, then gave me an affectionate back scratch soon afterwards. Two days later and I can literally see where he touched me! I’ve played down how annoying it is because it was an…

I’m not arguing that Amazon sucks for employees, but why do this kind of work? If it’s risky, stop doing it! Go deliver pizza or subs if you need a side gig. 5 mile range usually and you’ll probably make as much money. Or join one of the contracting fleets if you want to make it a job. I genuinely do not understand…

Something not mentioned - check to see if you have an underlying anger issue. Sometimes this takes a deep and uncomfortable dive into self-awareness, but it’s so worth it. In my 20s I was short-trigger angry all the time, and I didn’t really know why. Yes, something stupid and not worth it would get the blame, but I…

Maybe I’ve had too many bad experiences when rejecting men, even as friends, but I have trouble believing I’m an outlier in that kind of situation. Generally when men are rejected by women, they get angry. Their pride has been hurt after all. This results in range of vengful behavior like verbal abuse, spreading…
