In the late 90s-00s a good half of the school wore hoodies and pajamas everyday. So it was 50/50 t-shirt n jeans vs hoodiejamas.
I’m with you on the pedo-staches. Ew.

I didn’t adjust well to it because I have an erratic sleep schedule, probably partially from a decade of shift work. I am also not a morning person at all and adjusting to 9-5 (or 8-5 or 8-6:30 which is more common around here) was brutal.
Is the job actually 9-5 for real? Like an 8 hour shift that includes lunch? If so, that’s a pretty sweet gig. Like NOWHERE let’s your lunch be part of your day anymore.
Overall I’m happier at a more consistent job time now. Easier to plan around, no more close-to-open bs.
You should refer to her as her nickname, Rory, since they’re both Lorelei.
Good luck emigrating unless you can afford those countries that let you buy residency.
Props to anyone who has successfully moved to another country because eegads that is not an easy or quick process.
I have always been “non-traditional” looking. When I was young and skinny I don’t think I was ugly but certainly not conventionally beautiful. Now that I’m older I am certifiably “meh”.
The expectation to look pretty (for men) is still there even if I don’t meet the criteria for their attention. I still feel the societal pressure, I still feel bad about my appearance when I’m not serving male gaze ideals. It doesn’t just go away even when you’re disqualified from personhood for being ugly.
I’m hoping becoming an old biddy will release me from requirements and I can feel free.
Huh, crazy. A remaster would be neat, I really enjoyed FF9.
This is just like Maximum Overdrive!
If you include insects and arthropods and everything suddenly turns into uberbloodlust-kill-all-humans then non-human animals win, hands down. I think people overestimate their ability, the effectiveness of weapons, and the sheer number of insects that are near you at all times. Insect biomass alone outstrips humans by an insane margin. Very few mammals or other animals would get a lick in, I think. There is no hermetically sealed bunker that would hold for long, and that won’t save you from the mites already on your skin although they probably can’t do a ton of a damage.
Am summer fae. Hard disagree. The worst part of summer is indoors where they abuse air conditioning to create a dry frigid wasteland.
And wildfire smoke which didn’t use to be a thing where I live.
My two nearest local papers are run by one company (I think) and their tech people are savvy as fuck. None of these paywall bypass sites work more than once, EVER. Archive doesn’t even work.
Dude I unironically love this horror movie and I think it holds up! I also have nostalgia goggles from watching it as a kid so YMMV.
Hm. I think we’d just have to specify our special and unique process only works with water-based paints and primers. Could get away with the hybrid paints though and I think there’s good enough hybrid primers to make it work.
Back in my day we didn’t have no fancy on screen keyboard built into windows! We copy and pasted from a random readme.txt file when our keyboards broke! (Or were taken away by our parents thinking it would make the computer inoperable, haha)
It is a really nice feature now though.
Trials are set to include only adult males at first, then children at later rounds. That’s not ideal.
I’m super pumped about the prospect of regrowing teeth though!
Until you can afford it deal with the more permanent solutions, I used to know someone who both waxed and epilated their beard.
They used stripless wax like GiGi Strip Free, a microwaveable wax that smells like pine resin you can get at Sally beauty supply. They also purchased an epilator from Amazon, which is a device that plucks hair in bulk and looks like an electric shaver.
Both methods are touchy but can give you a smooth face with a longer regrow time.
With waxing you have to be careful not to rip off your skin which is always a risk when waxing the face. Epilating just takes technique and pain tolerance.
Both are reportedly painful at first but you get used to it after a while.
I’m not a “collector” but so far my physical media is a mixture of both. I just don’t have the storage capacity for cases but I keep cases for things I really like or box sets.
One thing I would do is use my water bending powers to open a house painting business (interior/exterior and cabinets). I would promise completely perfect results in 1 day or less with the caveat that the customer cannot be home for ‘safety’ reasons. Oh! I could partner with an air bender and we could have places completely painted, not a drop spilled, and completely dry in 1 hour or less. Without even over charging people we could do so much volume we’d make bank!
I may or may not be painting right now and hating reality.
Food. Probably get a single catering size meal from a restaurant.
