Trauma can look like a lot of different things. It doesn’t always come from specific, intense events. Some times it sneaks in via very small, subtle occurrences that aren’t usually a big deal, but are very effecting when they happen frequently enough.
I’m so selfish for not wanting to end up in a concentration camp. And the rest of the world is now so much better off with Donald Trump at the helm of the biggest military in the world.
Things are definitely better in places like Ukraine and Gaza. The Trump regime has absolutely had their best interests at heart. /S
You store your contact information on the chip. Then, if your pet gets out and someone finds it they can take it to the vet to have the chip read. Then they can contact you and give you your pet back.
You could, of course, have your contact details on their collar. But collars can come off or break. And if you’re worried about privacy, literally anyone can just read the tag on your pet’s collar. Most people aren’t going to have the equipment on hand to read a chip.
High doses of Benadryl can give you a REALLY dissociative high.
Even if for some reason you didn’t want to chip your cat (you should absolutely chip your cats and dogs) it would be trivial to just put a tiny receiver in something that dangles off their collar for the door to communicate with.
Ok. But the Dems and Republicans aren’t the same. Like I agree with you that our system is beyond fucked, but that doesn’t mean both of our shitty parties are equally shitty. If you want to pretend like the Obama or Biden administrations were the same as the Trump administration you just as much in a fantasy as someone who thinks the Democrats are actually competent and well-meaning.
Like shit, I’m not pretending like voting is the be-all end-all of civic action: FAR from it. That’s why voting, at best, is harm reduction. But fuck, it’s so goddamn easy, and why would we want to ceade ground for no reason?
Ok yeah. But not voting still enables the fascist. You can still vote for harm reduction, then protest/riot for progress.
The Netherlands. Amsterdam seems really nice.
I mean, there’s plenty of that out there, if that’s what you want.
Every time I see the phrase “raises alarms” nowadays, I just picture someone tossing a claxon onto the top of an enormous pile of claxons.
Yeah, it attracts people who feel powerless in their own life, so they’re desperate for any amount of power they can hold over someone else.
Garlic sauce is kinda premium, but asking you to pay an extra 50¢ seems petty. But $2 for mustard is fucking insane.
Is that what they’re for? I thought it was so you could hold the pizza down and grab a piece without touching any of the other pieces.
Nah, I just tuck it behind my ear and eat with a weird little hunch and it’s fine
Don’t forget “I’M WALKIN’ HERE!”
Yeah, but Nazis love to say “I’m not a Nazi, that’s a left wing ideology. All those people telling me not to call them slurs are the real Nazis.”
I don’t think it can be that piano to trick people.
Genuine question: how often do you use the spork? I feel like it’s a pretty rare occurrence for me to be out and about thinking to myself “fuck I wish I had some silverware right now”
