It definitely is. Kids bike down my street every day, though much more on weekends, I think because most schools near me don’t allow walking or biking to/fro anymore. Some kids getting run down on rural roads because they’ve been paved and turned into highways made it too unsafe for many kids to walk or bike to school, and it was too big a headache to have selective rules.

I’m in a suburban area between rural and city where kids don’t have to worry about high speed traffic or much violent crime, so kids are still free-range here. They videogame, too, of course.

LillyPip,

Hahaha 🙃🙁😖😭

Some people live on yachts and that’s their entire home. So like a 70,000£ yacht, then like 300£ a month in slip (berth) fees, including electric and whatnot. I strongly considered it. It’s roughly the same cost but better than caravan living, IMO.

It’s a decent alternative to a landlocked home.

But yeah, millionaires with yachts are a different thing.

LillyPip,

They have Homelander, what more do they need?

LillyPip,

One of my first jobs was cleaning toilets in a bowling alley and I’m pretty sure this is what women do in the toilet. Anything to avoid touching that seat.

I’m a woman and I’ve never understood it.

LillyPip,

The fuck do you think ‘whimsical’ means??

Oh I see. Carry on.

Henry Kissinger, how I’m missing ya

But not really. The world is a brighter place today.

LillyPip,

Trash cat is best cat.

Also, can we take a moment to appreciate how cats domesticated us, not the other way round? A cat is basically the only animal that can barge into your home and say ‘I live here now’ and instead of freaking out and shooing it out the door, many of us will say ‘welp, I guess we have a cat now’ and go out to buy food and toys.

They’re pretty exceptional when it comes to taking full advantage of our parenting instincts.

LillyPip,

Three bowls before 7am is a feat, though.

LillyPip,

I have to go off it for a month or so every so often because I go from ‘this is a nice feeling, I want to go to sleep’ when coming down to suicidal anxiety after a while. Not exactly a hangover, but it’s not ideal.

After a tolerance break, I’m fine again, but what the hell is that?

They’re supportive like a back brace. Modern back brace construction borrows quite a bit from corseting.

If you wore them too tightly for prolonged periods because you were an actress or socialite, your core muscles may weaken eventually because the corset did all the posture work, sure.

That was a thing, but pretty rare since average women wouldn’t tighten to impractical amounts.

LillyPip,

A four hour stream of someone fixing a device I don’t own and likely never will – gimme. So satisfying, though I have no use whatever for this knowledge.

LillyPip,

/skəba/ (sk•uh•bah), obviously.

LillyPip,

Yes, and that’s stupid.

It’s not ‘Jraphical Image Format’. Gah!!!

This package of bagels I bought expired on a date that doesn't exist. (i.imgur.com)

I originally posted this on the other site back when I took the picture, and it resulted in a lot of confused comments, especially from Americans, eventually getting removed by overzealous mods. Either way, I promise you that this date does not exist, and has never existed.

In the grand tradition of reposting things ….

eta: the previous thread was a sausage fest; I think this is more relatable to women, though.
