they’re commonly known as busy bowls.
we had to get one for a young dog we took in. he was used to food being scarce, and would gulp down any given to him. the busy bowls make them work for it, so it slows them down a bit.
absolutely.
not every joke is going to land with everyone. sometimes they’re not even jokes, just pointing out absurdities.
if they don’t land with you, i wouldn’t stress it. sometimes the humor is extremely nerdy. it’s like the Far Side or Monty Python. it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, and that’s OK.
it’s whataboutism, any time someone follows up a story like this with ‘what about the time X did worse?’
it’s literally the definition of whataboutism. if it weren’t whataboutism, then we wouldn’t be talking about the IDF. we’d instead be talking about the dude pretending to be a journalist by day, and a terrorist by night.
the fact that you don’t know this means two things. either you know and are trying to deflect, or you just flat out don’t know that’s what whataboutism is.
Border Police opened fire indiscriminately at a vehicle that tried to burst through a checkpoint.
i like how they try to make it sound like the Israelis fired for no reason whatsoever, yet the vehicle tried to run through a checkpoint. that gets you shot at a large number of borders.
it’s sad that the little girl died. i think we can all agree on that.
learn HOW to drink.
drinking isn’t just about finding out how much it takes before you black out. AND FOR EVERYONE ELSE’S SAKE, DON’T DRINK AND DRIVE. if you’re gonna drink, arrange transportation, or stay where you are.
also, read the Hagakure. there’s some good stuff in there.
If you’re going to raid someone’s home. why the hell would you listen to a criminal.
you already know they’re untrustworthy, that’s why you’re there in the first place.
nothing really matters, that’s what gives our presence meaning. there is no grand score keeping, which makes things like kindness all the more meaningful.
when nothing matters, how we live and express ourselves becomes even more meaningful.
the entire existence of all living things is the struggle. some thrive, some don’t.
but we do it all for the good days. if it was all good days, we wouldn’t appreciate them like we do. the darkness gives meaning to the light, and the bad days give meaning to the good ones.
i’m sorry about your cat. it can be rough to lose a loved one. but that doesn’t mean there won’t be more good days.
i’m 40 years old, and i’ve been working since i was 17.
i have never had any sort of job that paid any sort of benefits. i simply get paid the money i earn from the jobs i do, and that’s it. i’ve never had any sort of insurance, etc. it’s kind of ridiculous. most of my jobs are contract positions. i can’t even remember the last time i worked for any sort of hourly wage.
either delete the data, or move it.
those are really your only options. if the drive you’re talking about is the only one in your PC, it needs some free space to do it’s thing. mechanical hard drives are pretty cheap and abundant. check with whatever is local to you, about used ones if you need something on the cheap. even new ones in the 1TB range are pretty cheap though.
Journalism is not a profession or a trade. It is a cheap catch-all for fuckoffs and misfits—a false doorway to the backside of life, a filthy piss-ridden little hole nailed off by the building inspector, but just deep enough for a wino to curl up from the sidewalk and masturbate like a chimp in a zoo-cage. - Hunter Thompson (journalist)
i’d look for a small folio type case. something durable, maybe leather-ish.
and without a IDF soldier with a marker, you never would have.
on the one hand, aww.
on the other hand, fuck em.
a careful cut or edit, could make all the difference.
given that the video is specifically presented as ‘unprovoked’ i’m going to guess it wasn’t.
i always gotta upvote Marty Robbins.
he’s buried near my grandparents. i usually pay his grave a visit when i go see them.
when i was about 10 or so we moved to a new neighborhood. obviously that meant exploring the new area, and making new friends. the first people i met in that area lived down the road from me. two of my new friends were brothers, one a bit older than the other, both several years older than me. they had a neighbor, who was my age, and we attended 3rd grade together.
the older brother was a bit wiser and kinder, the younger brother could be a bit bullheaded at times. when i was about 15, i left to live with my dad. those 5 or so years seemed so incredibly formative on my upbringing, for good or bad. around that time the younger brother died in a car wreck, and i really hadn’t spent much time with them since i moved away.
to this day, i remember something the older brother taught me, which was to try to learn something new everyday. you won’t always succeed, but it’s still important to try.
i’m 40. the amount of time i lived there was really only about 1/8th of my life. but i still try to learn something new everyday.
probably not a good idea to attack them and take hostages then.
it’s been awhile since i dove into Linux, but last time i dabbled i was liking Kubuntu.
