Search for Alex Honnald and he’s done TED talks and other interviews talking about it, but most interestingly, i found a 360-degree youtube vid of some of the climb to really get that pucker-up sensation. (You can grab and pan the camera view in all directions)

Yes you should LOL JFC go get a job, save money, build your future. You are gonna be middle-aged saying “Why the fuck did I let international politics keep me from getting my shit together??”
I promise you, whatever excuses you’re letting your mind invent to keep you from getting a job are just that, internal validations. Take the reigns, don’t listen to the stories your mind tells you.
I have spent my life hearing stories that the world is ending, that world war 3 is about to happen, that we have no future.
Well it’s now the future, and I dearly, dearly wish the people saying all that actually helped me and others prepare for living as an adult in a world that continues to go on.
My entire life on Earth, people have been saying “World War 3 is imminent!” and when I was little, it actually was. In my life, I’ve seen an actual face-off between armed super-powers directly threatening each other with total annihilation, and a few times it came very, very close.
We are in a vastly different world now, with new super-powers all for the most part intertwined with each other financially. While what remains of Russia is a real threat, they aren’t the scary monster they used to be, but are still using the same rhetoric and hostility. However, more and more we have learned that they are not the unstoppable “red tide” that will cover the world, they are a struggling, impoverished nation pouring every ounce of their might into capturing one neighboring country with valuable resources, and not showing a lot for it other than a radically reduced male population.
I firmly believe that we are further from World War 3 than we’ve been since the end of World War 2. It’s possible Putin will lose his mind and try to kill the world, but that’s not a “world war” that’s just terrorism, and he won’t have allies joining in, because mostly, everyone wants to live. He knows this too, so all he would be doing is causing a lot of destruction to some countries and total destruction to his own.
Good, but it is normal so I was speaking broadly.
Aside from the Americanized version, that sounds wonderful, I love the inclusion of mint.
That’s not even remotely the worst way we’ve bastardized italian pizza.
Also, we could dive deeper and talk about italian food before tomatoes were introduced, but I don’t think Americans are ready for that yet.
If you’re not sure about this, start small. Try a spinach salad tossed with nuts like walnuts or pecans and sliced strawberries and a sweet balsamic with a little grated romano. Seriously, give it a go, it’s healthy and tastes amazing.
Remember, tomato is a fruit, it’s just not sweet. But we then add heaps of sugar to tomato sauce to make it sweet. Fruit like strawberry is already sweetened, it makes perfect sense on paper.
What’s throwing everyone is that our first experiences with sweet fruit flavors is always candy or pastries and we have a hard time shaking that association as strictly appropriate.
Lose a little weight, get good shoes, gentle stretches before walking, see a doctor to make sure you’re not doing actual damage. Maybe try walking on dirt/sand/grass too, asphalt and concrete are rough on your body.
5·14 days agoif it’s a traditional/old style with a spinning magnetic disc, listen for clicking sounds as it reads, if you hear clicks it’s probably about to die, don’t put anything valuable on it.
User you replied to is literally some child from a religious family or something, history is a wild ride of “what the fuck” takes and weird rambling spiels. I regret the time I spent trying to figure them out.
SO YOUZ SAYING WE NEEDA PAINT 'ER RED TOO OI, DEM BURNAS MAKE 'ER GO FASTA
Anything can match the SR-71 if you strap enough afterburners to it.
I’m pretty sure American commercial chocolate companies are why I don’t really like chocolate. I can eat it and it’s not literally revolting, but I sure as fuck can’t imagine passing a rack of hershey bars and going “ooh!”
Mmmnnn Hershy’s Vomit bars
I refuse to believe Europe, broadly a consumer of the same products as the US and the rest of the world, has never seen individually bagged candy.
At least we don’t have to worry about getting our houses egged anymore.
It was a nice, polite evening with pleasant socializing, and of course, a weird underlying tension that everyone knew was there but nobody said anything until my partner and I were driving home and had a good laugh.
I stayed friends with my boss for a number of years, she was often a bit “clingy” but I discouraged it gently when I could. It didn’t help that she had a boyfriend.
It really didn’t help that she often described her boyfriend as “murderous and psychopathic.”
My boss at my first job did this, I agreed though to come to her house at 9:00 PM to help her with the problem with her PC.
She had two glasses of wine ready and was in a bathrobe, nothing was wrong with her PC.
I had brought my wife just to be safe. It was an awkward evening.
The alien parasite that usually controls his brain faltered for a moment and the normal human inside was like “How the fuck did I get here?? SOMEONE HELP”
