I have a friend who is too beautiful (and unfortunately meek) for her own good, attracting stalker types with horrifying regularity. This is a great change.

Just FYI, the striped pole attached to the hydrant is so it can be found under snow.

Look at the backpacking/hiking brands. Osprey, Deuter, fantastic, comfortable backpacks.

It may be more balanced than it was before, but there are a lot of accounts which come across as heavy-handed propaganda and/or radicalized teenagers.

Life with ME/CFS .

If you’re the tankie type, you might appreciate how tankie-heavy it is.

Homosexual whale rape. So in right now.

This is extra funny to me because I do grow leafy greens.

The biggest shrinkflation culprit is food. People need food. Recent trends do, in fact, show that American consumers have been switching to cheaper brands and reducing consumption of some items, but boycotting is unrealistic. People need to eat and a handful of massive corporations own most brands.

Looks like someone doesn’t want to deal with the hassle and (small) cost to dispose of a couple heavy chairs.

They’re sending the bill stub back, claiming that this is payment in full, without including any actual payment.

That is absolutely not something that most kids do.

Similar story. I think my exact words were, “If you hire him, he will railroad you.” 'Nough said.

That sounds reasonable until you consider that kids starting out at their adult life very often only have friends and family who could act as a reference.

I once had a former friend (as in, we had a falling out due to him being a constant asshole) apply to the company I was working at and list me as a reference (we had also worked together for a couple of years at one point).

Oh boy, did he not get that job.

Right, but the form she shared a picture of says “food stamps”, and that’s just not going to happen.

I could almost believe that, actually. It’s easy to get initially approved for SNAP, but they’ll follow up to get proof of your being low-income pretty soon and then cancel if you can’t/don’t do so.

Except that the program hasn’t been called “food stamps” in ages, so she clearly is making it up.

I’m the US, the first foods I was taught to make were breakfast foods. First the safe stuff like cereal, frozen hash browns, frozen Pop tarts, then (around age six) pancakes and French toast. Deviled eggs were also an early first.

Voting doesn’t require ID in the US.

You really should.
