I’ve had bad experiences with melatonin, but now I find it can be helpful in smaller doses. I cycle through a bedtime thc/CBD/melatonin sleep aid (Wonder Wellness Sleep), L-theanine, and melatonin, only taking one for tops a week at a time. That rotation seems to help.

This was the first thing I thought of, but couldn’t remember the artists name - thank you!

Flashbacks to that fucking Netflix documentary, Don’t Fuck with Cats.

Fuck.

Video, pause, screenshot?

This is actually closest to the best thing lol.

Our bodies are meant to move, not sit statically even with “perfect” posture. By fidgeting, slouching, sitting tall, leaning, and all kinds of variations we’re responding to feedback from our bodies. Keep listening and keep moving!

But they heard the word once and it sounds sciency, so they keep repeating it.

I’d be so tempted to name that cat “What?” or “Huh?” Lol

For marketability, it’s horrendous. While I’m open to dramatic, unique, and off the wall stuff it’s still not my taste.

BUT! I would absolutely take advantage of the discount I’d get on the property after it’s spent over a year on the market. I also wouldn’t be in a rush to remodel, but would look for ways to highlight it till the novelty wore off.

Not a Texan, but as I understand if a state connects to other states then there are federal regulations that need to be followed.

LMAO - I haven’t seen anyone do that before. Everything after the ? is for site tracking info, so you can remove it. There was a post about it sometime in the last couple weeks that gave examples and where to chop it off to not offer more tracking info.

After the birth of my first child I ended up with a hemorrhoid. Truth be told, I was scared shitless to touch anything down there for a couple days after the trauma. They had given me a squishy bottle to rinse myself while everything recovered. Warm water from the tap was heavenly lol.

As a Midwestern American with a fondness for music from the UK, I both blindly accept your answer as 100% believable and complete bullshit at the same time lol.

Nice work! 👍

Careful. With those proportions might need a wider base.

The first 35 years of my life I was surrounded by nothing but Midwestern American conservatives, with splashes of evangelical Christians in the mix. I was raised that we should love our neighbors, give to the poor and needy, work hard, and or needs would be met. When I was no longer a child the clarifications started to creep in. I should love and help others, but only if they really deserved it. Who deserved it had a long list of unspoken qualifiers. If my needs weren’t being met, I must not be working hard enough, even if that meant working 2 jobs and my health suffering for it.

In my 30s I had the opportunity to meet people outside my bubble, and what do you know - I started recognizing the hypocrisy I was raised with and living, and finally started to grow as a person.

Huh. I raised my children to treat people the way they want to be treated and to share their toys with others. As teens and adults they’ve tended to cultivate friend groups of supportive, welcoming people. I consider them extended family, and if someone has a need we should be available to help.

The people they’re skeptical of are the “I’ve got mine, fuck you” types.
