This is a really nice idea. Which is refreshing, because my go-to is always something mildly disturbing but not too scary or criminal.
If I were going the wholesome route, I’d add a paper note to the USB or other digital storage, though. If I were to find a LaserDisc from 1990, that would be more or less unreadable without expending some significant effort.
But maybe future folk will have magical devices that can read cassettes, 8-tracks, or whatever.
I’m a big fan of concealing doll heads behind drywall. The local hobby shop used to sell half-heads (just the face and neck, including eyes), so that was my go-to.
It was also a hard to fix drywall job, so it looks a little janky. It’s almost guaranteed that the next owner rips out that section and finds her.
I, too, like a nice bit of cheese.
Right? I know a lot of people who were subject to absolute educational neglect for their K-18. Some lean in, but others have questions.
ETA - and some days I smack myself on the forehead and realize something I should have known at age 8 but it just clicked now.
I don’t like it.
So I remember hearing in HS US history class that one of the arguments against women’s suffrage 100-odd years ago is that married men would now have 2 votes instead of one. This would disadvantage them against bachelors or widowers, who would of course not be able to dictate their nonexistent wives’ votes. Unmarried men would only have the one vote, which didn’t seem fair.
I guess the idea is not a new worry. It just seems like the fretting has reversed its polarity.
I’m sensitive to noise, and usually book late enough that the only seats available are in back. And fly at least once a month.
Absolutely decent noise cancelling headphones are available for under $70 US last time I bought some. Mine were called Q30 or something, and they were better than my Sennheisers from 2016-ish. Worth every bit. If one can afford a ticket, one can afford this one thing to make it less awful.
About 20 years ago I read a grim book about plane crashes. They claimed that the number 1 predictor of crash survivability on commercial craft was being a male between the ages of 20 and 50. They’re apparently much better equipped to claw and climb over the other passengers on the way out.
Grim. I fly a lot and think about it at least every other trip.
That’s some classic cat & wire deterrent advice. Needs to be repeated for every new member of the pride, but it works.
Exactly as you describe.
That scene in the pilot episode of Lost. That’s why.
*Easy answers *Lack of self-reflection (“are we the badies?”) *reflexive reactionary impulse (“I say throw the bums out!”) when external pressures make life tough
I’ve got many people in my life who would fit one or more of these generalizations. I’m sure it’s a vast tapestry.
My mom got hissing mad when one of her friends told her that WalMart wasn’t a good place to be shopping. That was 20 years ago.
<cries in Ohio>
That actually looks pretty good. I’ll need to keep an eye out for that when I travel.
Roy is great. He’s no Moss, but he’s great.
Is that the penis worm that I learned about today?
She was a really funny comedy actor, but also good in Close Encounters. I’ll probably remember her most for that role.
she had been flagged after she indicated that she was not a U.S. citizen in response to a jury summons
She claimed non-citizenship as a way to get out of jury duty??? Bwahahahaahaha! This just keeps getting better.
That looks like a perfect copycat Giordanos! I used to make those at home before they opened one up locally in American hell Ohio.
They make my friends in Italy SO ANGRY. They insist that it’s some sort of quiche or casserole. And then I point out that I’ve been to Italy and seen the hotdog and french fry pizza with my own eyes. That makes them angrier.
I agree. OK - he may have been a bit evil, but as always - he was a voice of reason.
