I'm in Massachusetts and I heat my house primarily with a central electric heat pump and supplemental mini-split heat pump. I do have a natural gas backup just in case, but I haven't needed it this year at all even down to 18⁰F

You're not changing what racist uncle is doing or thinking no matter what you do. I deal with racist uncle too, you know. I'm busy radicalizing the kiddos ¯(ツ)_/¯

Why do you care what racist uncle thinks though? Is it going to affect anyone in the world other than him?

Oh, ya. I could work like that, but I need health insurance, sadly.

I'm curious how many hours you work in one day? I work three 12hr shifts. It's still better than working that M-F 9-5 nonsense

I went to great lengths to get my family group chat migrated from FB Messenger over to WhatsApp, and then Meta bought WhatsApp. I'm doomed. I'll never get these Americans to transition to something like Signal

Also, why isn't there a slide cover to physically cover the camera, and why can't I turn off the mic and camera separately? So I just use one of those black foam stickers to cover the camera.

I have neighbors who got a one story tall inflatable dragon for Halloween last year and just left it up until Christmas. It was so popular that this year they have an entire yard full of Christmas dragons. I love it.

I love how he happily embraced the "best space content to fall asleep to" and just totally leaned into it.

His video on The Cosmic Scale is one I still rewatch periodically.

Especially if his cousin happens to own Starbox.

I'm decently fluent in Spanish and Portuguese might as well be Arabic to me. The pronunciation is wildly different. Which is crazy because I can actually understand written Portuguese pretty well. Then it's like, "Wait...how did you get those sounds from those words??"

Not me, but two people I knew.

The first was an exchange student from Ecuador who attended my high school. She actually cried. The other time she told me she cried was when she started dreaming in English instead of Spanish.

The second was a girl I knew in college who had moved up from Florida to attend Ohio State. The first snow that year was that dry snow that blows around, but there was enough of it that everything was covered.

Walking back to our dorm, she kept gathering up handfuls, trying to make a snowball, and she asked if we could make a snowman. We told her it wouldn't work because this is not snowman snow, and she was mystified. "There's snowman snow??"

First time we had that good, heavy, wet, sticky snow, we took her out and made a 7-foot-tall snowman haha

All I know is it better have Cara Gee or we riot.

This is the one they were waiting for. There are several live cams trained on the area, and one of them caught the exact moment it erupted:

The bigger problem is that it teaches kids that they are powerless and must appease authorities. It took me the better part of my 20s to figure out that I hold just as much power as my boss and I don't have to appease anyone.

Definitely makes me happy to put some action behind my genuine love of these owls (and birds in general)

Christ, just give cash money to the people harmed by this trash. And also prosecute the Sacklers for murder and put them in prison forever.

I completely disagree with the sentiment here. My 40s have been great because they marked the point in my life when I finally lost my last fuck to give.

The freedom that provides is worth not being able to drink the way I used to in my 30s. Enjoy that achievement.

Dude, this is so amazing, thank you! I just found a raptor rescue a couple towns over from me that I didn't even know existed because I never thought to look. I'm donating to them for Christmas. Thanks for bringing this to our attention

These are so great, thank you for all the time and effort you put into this sub. It's been a real highlight for me during a tough time.
