My trick for dealing with “blushing bladder” is a Palovian response on myself. I realized I had certain pee triggers. Long story short, there are certain places and situations that cause me to need to urinate. So I figured why not use a word as a trigger? While at home I began saying the trigger word just as I felt the flow begin. Every time I pee, I say the word. My blushing bladder went away. Some of the music venues i frequent have urinals literally elbow to elbow so it’s awkward but there’s no trouble when I say the trigger word. The only problem now is people look at me weird when I’m looking at my dick saying “shazam”.

Gar have primitive lungs and will stick their head out of the water to breathe

One way to get the hair off of furniture is to use duct tape. Make a band to fit around your fingers with the sticky side out. Your hand is now a hair magnet. I saw auto retailers do this and used it to clean up a rental car after driving around with my buddy’s giant white husky. It went quick and got it all up

Godspeed!

You didn’t specify your reasoning for getting away from smartphones. Cost or to escape the trappings? Other? I was thinking you could hang on to your smartphone and just delete the nonessential stuff.

This is why you don’t base your political opinions on memes

Rarely and I live in red state Ohio. Yard signs and flags are all over the place

I was thinking the person who had to write this was ticked off because they had to write a custom letter to address the forms sspecifically. On the other hand maybe they get a lot of these and now they have a generic response prepared.

What did I just read?

Consolation prize: the Gene Wilder documentary on Netflix is pretty good if you haven’t already seen it

Yeah I’ll give em $20 some years and never got hit with emails. EDIT: just checked i have 2 solicitation in my inbox this year

I haven’t known anyone to do this but I always thought managing social media accounts for small businesses would be a good side hustle. A steakhouse restaurant nearby went out of business in a year. They spent a ton of money on remodeling and a billboard with a logo but weren’t even listed on Google Maps. I’ll wager some businesses would be willing to barter in order to keep things simple

I find with stuff like this it’s important to understand the context of when it first came out. Had a neighbor say he didn’t get the appeal of the Ramones because a lot of bands sound similar. I told him when the Ramones came out NOBODY sounded like that. Another is David Letterman. By the time he retired he was nothing special but when he first started it was groundbreaking.

Most of the time just the headline. If it’s obviously opinion I’ll often skip. If the headline is a question I’ll usually skip. If it’s an obviously horrific story I’ll skip. If it’s something that is relevant or useful I’ll read. You are what you eat. That applies to your eyes and ears as well as your mouth

That I never watched the final Star Wars movie. I was 10 years old in 1977 when the original came out

I look at it more like this:

Tyson wins and Paul looks bad for getting beat by an old man or Paul wins and looks bad because he beat an old man

I quit playing video games in my mid 30’s. Pretty much went cold turkey. Why would you want to start now? Plenty of healthier things to do with your time

Hopefully they will hire an Alex Jones impersonator just to see how long they can fool the morons that have been listening to him

“for your kids sake” is the only part that should be relevant. This is for you to decide. If the answer is no that’s ok but you owe him an explanation. If the answer is yes you have it in you to make everyone else uncomfortable

If you are still on X yet couldn’t bring yourself to vote for Kamala because of Palestine then WTF?

This just made my day
