Right next to a lace boutique, no less. ;)

In total fairness, so would I, and not just for the indoor pool. There’s a lot I’d want to change about it, but I’d leave pretty much everything that couldn’t be fixed with paint. Other than that weird hut thing.. tho I’m sure my cats would love to have a playhouse, so..

Alternatively, it’s great for a “hit me in the feels” don’t cry challenge when you need to let off weepy steam.

I had a puppy that specifically ate the crotch of all my underpants in the laundry. She was pooping out ladybugs and tye dye for days.

Thank you! I’m super pumped!

So wait, is anyone supposed to be left there other than the few well off people who can already afford it comfortably??

How do you expect that not to immediately collapse?

I wonder if this means they are skilled enough to sell me only female fish for my breeding colonies…

It’s a pain trying to explain how to sex fish (of specific sexible varieties) to the people working.. fortunately I found a LFS that just has me wash my hands then I can net my own.

I think the idea here with not mentioning too cold is that rocky planets (at least those we can find) are usually relatively close to the stars they orbit (unless there was a realignment event in the solar system that knocks one to a larger orbit), and can have a lot of strong tidal forces and radiation that heat up the planet.

Within the range most rocky planets fall, too hot is much more common than too cold, and models and data indicate that even snowball exoplanets can have some far-from-ocean land regions that host liquid water, extending the range even further.

Just look at our own solar system for an idea of the possible spread, assuming we are relatively average (which so far seems to be the case). We have 2 uninhabitable hot planets, two not too hot and not too cold (mars may not have atmosphere, but there’s evidence of liquid water, maybe even somewhat recently, putting it in the “not too cold” category.) and none that are too cold (moons yes, rocky planets no). Where we would commonly get “too cold”, on the outer edge of the habitable zone for that star type, we usually see gas giants, just due to how solar systems form.

(When solar systems are forming, there is a cloud of dust and gas that starts to rotate, and collapse toward the center. The disk of material outside of the center will mostly become planets, and the rotational energy eventually turns into the orbital momentum. When the star finally amasses enough material to ignite, a wave of radiation goes out in all directions, pushing the gas, but not as much of the dust and rock, outward, to right around the edge of the likely habitable zone. Planetoids out where the gas wasn’t blown away form gas giants, those within the wave form rocky planets.)

Pihole doesn’t work on YouTube so this won’t either.

YouTube serves ads from their own domain, can’t be blocked this way.

Lawl.

Why on earth would I spend a ton of money on a robot to maintain something I’m against, when I can plant things native to my region which do far far better for basically zero cost and have a positive impact on my area?

Grass is not meant to be in my area, that’s -why it dies-. I’m not going to prop that up with watering, fertilizer, and more mowing and shit just because of some bullshit social standard that makes no sense.

My city doesn’t mind, so good enough for literally everyone.

If I’m welcome to do all those things, that still makes it my responsibility as a consumer. So…

And the rest of what you wrote is just unnecessary. Of course shit takes work. Part of that work is talking to people to raise awareness, and gosh golly it’s almost like I’m already doing that.

Something that helped me was realizing that names are hard for everyone.

Unlike faces, which a lot of people also struggle with, names are completely arbitrary. They don’t help you identify a person at all unless you already know them. Facial features at least help you recognize someone but “Tim” or “James” could be 20 people you have met this year alone.

Everyone is bad with them, so just admitting to it is actually either a huge relief or at least understandable to the other party, like your experience. I find it’s typically the former, and after they share their name again, they confirm they have mine right, or ask in kind because they also forgot. It’s a human moment.
