I'm a woman, and what bothers me is when the woman is not believable in that role. Men are generally stronger than women -- that's just a fact. But some women are exceptionally strong and trained in combat. If you're going to cast someone in a role that's supposed to show us a strong woman, then for fuck's sake, she'd better be a strong woman, not a gorgeous woman who just looks great in a tank top and a sheen of sweat. It's obvious she would be easily overpowered by any of her male opponents, but we're supposed to believe that she's kicking all their asses.

Someone else suggested Alien would be accused of wokeness had it been released today. I don't think so. Ripley was just a regular, somewhat fit woman, and the things she did were believable for someone with her physique and level of training. That's why that movie works.

Mine was a '91 GT, and there's another commenter whose first car was a '92 Escort wagon. I guess the Ford Escort makes for a great first car.

I remember being able to start my car, then take the key out and lock the doors while the engine warmed up. Could also turn the ignition with a coin.

I'm terrified of going into lakes and rivers because of what might find its way into my skin.

I just cancelled my subscription and got a refund too. Good riddance.

Looks like you do too! We love our Murphy. He's a super senior at around 20–21 years old.

That really made me laugh, then I told it to my husband and had even more fun, I was crying/laughing. Thank you. XD

Here's a really dumb one I made up that my husband loves for some reason.

Q: What did the leprechaun say when he was kicked in the balls?

A: Menard's!

I do this too. Great comfort food, and quite healthy.

Ariat boots + Spenco insoles + wool socks have kept my feet happy working on concrete for years, in both hot and cold conditions.

Lewdle is actually a game. It's Wordle but only with naughty words.

I appreciate that in The Last of Us, they touched on the subject of menstruation. She had a box of tampons in her pack, and I think they scored some TP too at some point.

 

I enjoy solving puzzles, and one that I do daily is where I have to decipher a quote by someone.

This quote was so beautiful that I had to share:

β€œMay your love for me be like the scent of the evening sea, drifting in through a quiet window.
So I do not have to run or chase or fall to feel you.
All I have to do is breathe.”
β€” Sanober Khan

I hope you all have a wonderful day. <3

 
 

Is the melanochrysum still considered rare? I've been out of the houseplant loop for several months, really mainly since leaving Reddit and r/houseplants. I've acquired all plants on my wishlist but always loved the pics of the melanochrysum that others posted. I wanted one but didn't think I would ever get my hands on one, so never considered it.

Then I started working at this garden center and they had them marked down at half off. First impulse buy in a while.

 

POV mama cat:

(This pic was taken in 2014. Murphy is over 20 years old now.)

 

The leaves seem larger and darker than any cultivar I've seen, and I'd really like to acquire one.

 

I was half-asleep and the sun was super bright but I'm glad the camera captured a pretty shot.

 

Additional Murphy tax

 

Our 20-year-old has CKD and we feed him a prescription food in the morning (Royal Canin Renal Support D) and a non-prescription food in the evening (Forza10 Renal Support patΓ©).

Treats are limited to catnip, cat grass, and the very rare small piece of plain chicken.

What do you feed yours?

Only about 4 weeks in as a cashier and I've heard this enough to last me a lifetime.

He still gets the zoomies and crazies. Energizer Murphy -- he just keeps on going.

 

We keep our oldmancat Murphy in his room at night; otherwise, he'll howl at our bedroom door at an ungodly hour, begging to be fed. His room stays pretty dim, so when we let him out in the morning, he always gives us this squinty face. <3
