Similarly feel it's ten layers deep complexity I do not grasp. It just upsets me to see cheering in the wake of these events. One of the disturbing things about this "Declassified" TV show is they had episodes about diff kinds of anti-Israel groups committing espionage, but in particular H...

Phoebe

Even in my town there are pro Palestinian protests going on right now and I'm sorry but it makes me sick to see protesters out there supporting what they did to innocent people. War is terrible and Israel puts Palestinian teenagers in prison and does all kinds of things we should rightfully object t...

MUCH BETTER TV lately - the Lioness show was worth a spin but irritated so much by the end. The recent shows have been TOP NOTCH EXCELLENT: 1) Succession Finally watched the most recent season. At times it makes you so uncomfortable! You start to emotionally engage, and immediately the people you fe...

This whole thread was fascinating for the "facts about what is actually going on with shoplifting" element but then y'all said I was a decent human - I should have come here earlier and not closed the phone! I should have paid attention! My kid has been mad at me for three days because I e...

Ditto to this entire post!

New word of the day for me:
sesquiterpenes

Apparently this is a vapor cloud released by trees that is relevant to understanding climate models:

Has anyone played this? Apparently the basic framework is still Minecraft but it's allowing you to do some things within the game related to familiar d&d content. Not really role-playing but getting a little taste of some d&d world. https://techcrunch.com/2023/09/27/the-dungeons-dragons-dlc-...

This one kind of presenting himself as the replacement Justin Timberlake now - it's a significant upgrade. Please upgrade us and also start working directly with Timbaland.

Phoebe

Had to get up this morning at 4:30 to drive my kid to a school thing and believe me, it is painful. In case I forgot what pain was, here is some to remind me. I'm glad I don't drink much.

They're going to planet Snoopiter.

Sounds like me.

Despair is not allowed though! We must not despair. Maybe about the climate but not current circumstances. I received this message and dwelling on it was good.

Child taking his first sip of coffee: what is this liquid death?!

"The US Food and Drug Administration received more than 250 reports of patients experiencing suicidal thoughts or behaviors while taking Ozempic or similar medicines since 2010, Reuters found in an examination of the FDA's adverse-event database." Just when I was going to ask my doctor whe...

People saying they don't fear him because of Colorado's loss to Oregon... same people want to restrict the transfer portal rules because they know their players might choose to play for Colorado now. My only regret is that this is happening in Colorado, where football fans have long been fickle and ...

I get that Coach prime has a very strong sense of self and is eager to share verbally how awesome he and his team are with others. That said, listening to him go on is far more entertaining and comfortable then listening to grown white men and women talk about how he and/or his kids need their comeu...

Phoebe

I totally missed this. I'm sorry to say this does not surprise me in the least, not only that it happened but that it would be excused like this in that area of the world. Way too much unwanted touching going on generally, and I do mean assault touching and not friendly hugs.

Phoebe

Now the puppy is large and he and all the other puppies of the world want to bark bark bark bark bark it up. My brain is vibrating painfully within its rigid prison. Bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark. I was driven to the edge by feelings about the workplace and actually phoned real humans to d...

Phoebe

Sadly I think that's what millennials say. Nowadays just

meaning fire but not using the actual word? Also give a hostile stare to the old person trying to inquire about your words.

Phoebe

A Court of Thorns and Roses, by Sarah Mass I read a lot of books I don't put here, unfortunately, and I almost never get to read fiction. Sometimes I have a window of opportunity for fiction. If you have such a window rarely, do not use it to read this book. This book is kind of like The hunger game...

Phoebe

That sounds amazing! I've never been on one of those really big cruise ships.

Phoebe

I love it!

Phoebe

Dog woke me up at exactly 4:45 a.m. making his high pitched squeaking noises like a maniac. Oh boy, he's really got to go potty. I drag my sad sorry ass out of bed thinking he means anything he says (yeah, squeaks, for some reason he can only squeak) and when we get to the door there's about six rai...

Phoebe

Woods are overrated; we only like them now because they aren't as scary as they used to be for the distant ancestors. When it gets too scary then we don't like it anymore. Maybe that's what this book is really all about: you don't have what it takes to be Amish because there's too much woods in it f...

This is so nice - peaceful, mellow, soothing. It's nice to be nice sometimes:

Phoebe

There's a big difference between training dogs for search and rescue and training them to be attack dogs, usually including which dogs are used for which type of work. How convenient that Ethan's SARS dogs happen to be dual-purpose dogs. Okay but these are St Bernards, and we're dealing with hand-t...

Be careful what you wish for when you decide to build that great big wall at the border!

Phoebe

It's because he just isn't into her, obviously. This isn't much of a romance novel, despite the promises of "love inspired suspense" and "inspirational romance". I wonder how the Amish would feel about this: "pray to the Lord and then start murdering" Reading this is ma...

Phoebe

More than anything it's the constant use of "fight them hand to hand" that tells me this was primarily an AI effort. When we're done with this book summary, I'm going to post up for ideas and prompts for us to have Chat GPT write our own Amish Suspense and Romance novel. I think we can do...

Phoebe

I have tried to train my children to do these things but ultimately it's easy to fall back into the patterns of our own training. My parents wanted me to get the good grades and do all the extras, so that's what they expected me to spend my time on. I did have to do a metric s*** ton of yard work. O...

Phoebe

This didn't just happen so it probably doesn't belong here, but I need to shout it into the void desperately. Parenting sons and daughters is no different in many respects and should not be different in some respects, but other differences are real and there's no point pretending they don't exist. N...

Phoebe

YouTube then suggested this to me and I puzzled over it greatly because it's too early in the morning to make sense of this type of thing. They obviously love each other, I don't know. They love each other so much that he is into this not quite a lap dance but also not a good one, and then they walk...

Phoebe

The music is catchy and I like that he has a low voice, but that poor man is the victim of the same stylist who did Kiesza's hideaway video. Great song that becomes an earworm but the worst fashion ever witnessed. I say this whilst sitting here in ancient black stretchy leggings that have holes in t...

Phoebe

Getting older is weird. It's like you get wiser but pay for it directly in pain. Just laying here with one knee bent and all of a sudden it's excruciatingly painful in the knee. Why? Can't bend at 110 degrees now? Looking forward to whatever new insight was won.

Phoebe

Feeling like St. Bernards could have helped with hand to hand combat after all given their size and paw size.

I was picturing some thinner, smaller type of hound so yeah, it changes everything.

Phoebe

This is so pleasant:

Phoebe

I had not realized the extent to which Hunter Biden is the source of all the nation's problems but luckily the Maga Nation is clear about that.

Phoebe

If there's one thing we know about the Amish it's that they make furniture, and you need woods for that. Furthermore, this is Montana and they don't have any open non-wooded ground anywhere in the state. At first I couldn't understand why the dogs would run away in the middle of hand to hand combat,...

Phoebe

This is how I have learned that someone indicted Hunter Biden.

Phoebe

Maybe Jade herself will be the ransom who needs to be exchanged for her own sister! But Ethan just can't let this happen, can he? Or can he?

Phoebe

I really don't know how people are handling that level of being baked constantly. I found it nearly intolerable to be where I am and want to go to a colder place. Honestly don't know if I could make it through that much over 100° weather.

Phoebe

I'm wondering: Is it me or do other people notice that the humans around them are starting to lose their collective minds even more than usual? We saw an initial wave of distress during the quarantine phase of COVID, and then in the aftermath of rejoining society phase. Now it seems we've reached a ...

Phoebe

If something like that does start surely Montana is a likely location? You might say Idaho but Montana has more of that hot gun smuggling territory next to Canada where all the gun smuggling occurs. Not to mention the heavy armament. "...eager to murder whoever is shooting. It must be one of th...

Sorry Phoebe I'm really enjoying the new Doia songs.

I'm so pleased we're getting another Amish mystery review. I can only imagine what unexpected uses of Deus ex machina this author will be willing to throw at us, given the unwillingness to find even a cursory excuse for picking up the Amish guys at their houses instead of using the cell phone. If th...

Had not heard this one yet! Her vampire song is played about once every five songs on the local stations here. The announcers breathlessly wonder whether the vampire in question is Taylor Swift. Just when I was about to relent in this long campaign of distaste for Doja Cat, she decided to sully some...

New show: Lioness Updated version; Maybe this is on Amazon? - Yes, It's Paramount Plus obtained via Amazon prime. It's kind of a US version of Fauda as imagined by the white guy responsible for the Montana shows with Kevin Costner et al. I don't love it but it's also slick and entertaining and bette...

It took a couple weeks for the first teacher to send me a letter about my kid, lol. The issue seems to be "Why does a thing need to be written on the special piece of paper rather than on another piece of paper that seems functionally identical except that it's not the special piece of paper?&q...
