A nod to my parents on this one: up until age 12 or so, it was just mattress, fitted sheet, and sleeping bag.

Mom even sewed little straps to the non-zipper side of the sleeping bag, which secured to the bedframe: kept my dumb ass from rolling out of bed without needing to screw around with rails.

Make the bed? Just pull the corner on the foot and head opposite the straps. 2 seconds, perfectly flat.

Eventually I switched to normal sheets and such cuz in my brain, sleeping bags were for kids!! …aka, the parents tricked me into wanting to make the bed cuz I’m a big boi, see?!

Well played mom and dad. 10/10

If you can find a Saab from before GM bought em that’s still in good condition… *chef’s kiss* perfection.

If you like to eat tasty food, you should learn to cook tasty food. There -is- a learning curve if you’re going in completely blind, but you’ll pick it up way quicker than you’d expect.

Absolutely a skill worth developing!

That man deserves a submarine.

Stakes are reusable.

I’m in favor of anything that gets us closer to making mosquitos extinct. Either the ecosystem adapts, or it’s now on an only-slightly-steeper nose dive toward total collapse than it is anyway with the amount of non-mosquito related damage we’re causing every day.

Like, if we’re fucked anyway, let’s be fucked in the relative comfort of a world without mosquitos!

Better idea: drive a stake 50% through AI CEO’s chest. Better, faster results, not just economically, but ecologically too!

…wait hear me out on this one: slow the rotation down by just a bit, so that a day lasts an equivalent of ~30 hours instead of 24.

Work a full shift. Fuck around with whatever your hobbies are after work until you’ve had your fill and are actually tired enough to sleep. Still get a full 8 hours.

I mean, it’d be great for like 2 weeks, until our corporate overlords decide to stretch an ‘8 hour’ shift to fit the difference, but hey, that’s what guillotines are for.

This honestly feels like they’re deliberately giving ammo to the defense team.

…well, assuming there’s any intention to actually adhere to the law, which isn’t the safest of assumptions nowadays.

Unrelated PSA, be careful not to let your car’s tires near an ignition source or anything flammable that could stick to them, like glass bottles containing gasoline (side note, cloth rags make a terrible cap for those types of bottles - the liquid will wick right through them!). Once a tire starts burning, it’s nearly impossible to put out, and could spread to other tires or areas like the interior.

If your tire does start burning, don’t film it - the battery in your phone could be especially dangerous exposed to high heat. Best if your phone isn’t anywhere near it.

Stay safe folks!

Are those the black bean patties? Cuz those things are fucking delicious. I’m not vegan or vegetarian or anything, I just like tasty food, and you guys have come up with some good stuff! The impossible burgers are pretty decent too - I’d go for one of those over a ‘beef’ fastfood patty any day (calling those horrid things ‘beef’ is a stretch right out the gate, but you get gist).

Is there anything stopping me from uploading an ID for Shrek or something? I foresee an explosion of popularity of fake IDs.

The developer made this change from a personal laptop at their local public library.

Shhhhhh.

…asking Valve to make a third game in a franchise is a tall fucking order!

There doesn’t seem to be much consistency - even the same patient could find it really painful one operation and not at all the next.

Propofol is weird stuff.

Cataract surgeries you’re typically awake for. Or rather, sleep isn’t drug induced: you’ll still be laying down in a quiet, dark room, so people sometimes fall asleep naturally (and then wake up naturally, understandably freaked out) but they generally won’t give general anesthesia unless you really can’t tolerate it.

Most likely your describing propofol. It’s stored at room temperature, but causes a sensation that’s comparable to Icy Hot, but how it hits an individual patient varies from person to person. In the moment it can feel scalding hot, blistering cold or anything in between, including nothing at all.

The clarity of your memory of that part tells me you might be a touch tolerant to it - I’d run that by your anesthesiologist if you ever need another surgery.

Definitely ask them for which drugs they used, and if you need anesthesia again later, give that list and your symptoms to your anesthesiologist.
