…oh dear…

I think you can get an OTC cream for that.

I’m DEFINITELY saving this one. Too fucking funny, thanks for the laugh.

I am no frogologist

I believe the term is herpetologist. :)

Here you go!

't would appear so!

Awwwww… oooh. Yeah, one of the few demons I never minded when it came to visit. Mine lasted for 16 years and is now a decade gone. Still miss the fluffy little girl fiercely.

Thank you!

Oh, they are absolutely dedicated to each other, he adores my mom and she loves him fiercely but he is just not willing to consider a will and face his mortality. It’s common, honestly. I am going to be doing a full court press on the matter this coming year. Mom is in her 80’s and is in good health, they both are - but still.

My mom is in a similar boat.

She’s been in Hawaii for decades, living with a guy and they’re not married and she’s not on the will for the property that he owns - even though she’s paid the taxes for it on and off over the years…

I have asked her why he can’t set that up to take care of her if anything happens to him and it’s just that he’s lazy and thinks - like a lot of people do - that he’s going to last forever.

I worry about it, and mention it often but the answer is always the same.

Am like WTF mom, he’s no spring chicken - neither are you - what ARE you two thinking?

LOL! NGL, that does look like a still from a Kubrick movie.

Holy cats, this guy is amazing! Thank you for the link, am going to do a dive into his music.

Think it’s the upload. Youtube strikes again.

If you go to a different Fresh upload, (I found this one) the music track is fine.

Very much a 6 right now…

I think the play was 100% Mike Johnson going “Let’s not swear in the newest Democratic Representative from Arizona and prevent the Epstein Files from being released in full…” and him teling the Republican GOP congressmen to leave went further than he expected, and rolled into the ACA tax subsidy collapse and then the SNAP fiasco.

The congressmen are just as blind as the rest of conservative, middle-class America as to how large the demographc of white Americans on welfare really is.

You can access pages that are still actively behind any given site’s paywall.

Was on Reddit from 2009 until a month ago and it really went to shit - beyond the API meltdown - when the IPO dropped. A ton of system changes and the algorithm super-charging the rage-bait subs and of course the 'bots.

AND - which I noticed, at some point in 2024, they quietly locked down older posts (beyond the nornal archived ones) and made it so users even, could not scroll down into their comment history and pull up really old content. Comments older than 12 months disapeared and can only be found if they’d been saved.

Right now, I’m only keeping my reddit account active (even though I’m banned) because I can still access the saved content I liked.

May be pulling a lot of that, esp. the tech stuff over here after the new year…

I’m in the States and know of no one else that listens to his music… UNTIL I introduce them to it.

From here in 'Murrica, yeah, he’s your country’s super musical secret.

And I love his music, it’s about exactly what you say… Human stories.

Musk stated not too long ago, he felt empathy was a weakness of western society.

So… too bad for Tesla. Oh well.

Well you get an upvote from me, not because you expect it but that you are quite correct in the rage-baiting that is consuming reddit ATM.

Interpretive dance you say? Hmmmm.

At the risk of causing my camera’s lens to shatter, I may torment you with a performance.

…

God damn, that bad eh?

LOL!
