Yes I was just thinking, that cat has complete control over the dog right now. He’s not gonna move a muscle
- Comment on This Avocado Oil that claims to be “0 Calories” 🙄 2 days ago:
All oil/fat is about 100 calories per tablespoon. The “healthy” and “unhealthy” ones differ in their saturation (rule of thumb, refrigerate it and poke it with your thumb. The harder it is, the more saturated.) and any fat-soluble vitamins, but you pour or scoop a tablespoon, yer gettin’ a hundred calories.

I’ve tried growing mint in pots but it always gets covered in aphids and whitefly.

You forget, “quarter” also is the name of a coin here.
(And quarter is also housing for redcoats in our homes (which we refuse) and mercy in combat, and a vaguely one-fourth chunk of human when ripped apart by horses bolting in the primary directions.)

All 1,532 servings?

It’s spray oil to stop your real food from sticking when cooking at high temperatures. You wouldn’t want to use 100 grams. You might as well chug olive oil, and not the good olive oil at that.

He’s even more powerful now that Mitch is dead. He can do anything and say it’s what Mitch wants.

Just because they didn’t die (someone else rescued them) doesn’t mean he didn’t “leave them to die.” Do you have evidence he knew the other ship would arrive in time? The duty of the nearest vessel to help a vessel in distress has been part of the Law of the Sea since the beginning.

Maybe they’re keeping a better balance of hydration to alcohol for their old brain, and not having a fruity or sweet taste but not boring plain water as well. Lite beer can occasionally be refreshing. Although personally I’d rather pour half a beer into a cup of ice than drink most light beers.

I have questions. Does the thong string run up the back of his head? And is there a tramp stamp on the bald under the rodent’s nest?

Incredibly wealthy people also run their society based on favors and unspoken fees. The difference is, one of them could, under unusual but not impossible circumstances, help a friend and a guy move a fridge and share a beer. But nobody who’s not part of the incredible-wealth society can participate in its favors. And we all pay the fees.

They should not be repeating the same tests, they should be thinking about what else they should be testing for.

You need to see a doctor and get blood labs to start figuring this out. If the first doctor dismisses you, they may be suffering from Female Symptoms Dismissal Syndrome and you should try another. Could be anything, including something serious like MS.
- Comment on What is your experience like for Jury Duty in the US? 2 weeks ago:
I’ve gotten summoned several times over the years, it’s changed somewhat. You used to have to go for a whole week in person but not anymore. Usually now, after you fill out the form and register by phone or online, you’ll have a week of being “on call.” So you call every evening to be told whether you’ll have to show up at the courthouse in the morning. (Or there may be a website to check now, it’s been awhile) Sometimes it’s not at all, and you can keep doing your regular job. Sometimes you do have to go report in, and sit in the waiting room, and if you get through the day without being put in a court as part of the jury pool, you’re all done. If you do get on a trial you have to keep showing up until the trial is done.
If you have good reasons you can’t do it, you can ask to be excused. Like you have to personally provide care for a child or a vulnerable person during court hours. Or you are too disabled to sit in the courtroom. Financial hardship is a gray area, you can ask but it might not get you off. Although it will probably keep you out of a long trial, because nobody’s lawyer wants an angry juror.
You can also ask to have your dates moved to a more convenient time. I learned by accident that the week before Thanksgiving is a good choice because the judges and lawyers don’t like to start a trial that might drag through the holiday.
Waiting to be called, you can work or browse on your phone (maybe laptop, depends on the court) but of course in court you have to pay attention.
You could be part of the jury who convicts a serial rapist, or one that finds a company liable for fraud, or frees an innocent person. Or you could sit around bored for a day or two and be done.

The adhesive loosener used to remove sticky bandages is orange oil from orange peel, so you could try rubbing with the outside of the orange. Either way the inside would still be edible if you eat it right away.

At least, having contacted EMS, they knew they weren’t going to have to drive to the hospital, and they could get the evac if they couldn’t make it. And they knew enough to be sure no major organs were pierced.

There’s a lot of unlicensed guns in every part of the US, which is the place being discussed. Probably more than you realize wherever you live too . So my point is that your oh-so-simple solution is inadequate
