My house was one of the ones hit in this storm. Baseball sized hail was blowing in sideways and broke a window. We lost a huge limb from our oak in the front yard. I got a roof inspection yesterday and it’s shot, it needs replacement. This was an expensive storm for me, but it could’ve been much worse. One of my coworkers said her neighbor’s tree fell on her house.
Maybe twelvend or twelv-econd or twelfond? My brain hurts.
Are the prices coming down at all?
I’ve been thinking about a Balatro community for a few weeks now, but life has been too crazy for me to create it. I’m really excited about this! If you’re looking for mods, please let me know. I’d be interested in helping out!
Here is the entire article (not kidding):
"A meningitis outbreak has killed 20 students in northern Nigeria, local media reported Wednesday (Feb. 28).
The death toll which remains provisional was announced by the Yobe state Education commissioner.
The outbreak has been recorded in some secondary schools in the state.
Over a hundred cases have allegedly been reported with three patients said to still be in an intensive care unit responding to treatment.
Meningitis is an infection which causes an acute inflammation of the outer layers of the brain and spinal cord. It can be life-threatening unless diagnosed and treated early.
Transmission is through direct person-to-person contact, including droplets from the nose and throat of infected people.
The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control and Prevention shared Wednesday (Feb. 28) on its X account (formerly twitter) a meningitis vigilance map.
Indeed, weather conditions can favour prevalence of meningitis.
Most of cases in the country are reported across states in the northern region.
According to the WHO, the west African nation reported 124 deaths from meningitis between 1 October 2022 and 16 April 2023."
It doesn’t even say which version it is, viral or bacterial.
I hope Bouldy is in the cubicle next to him.
I was. As a boy, I had undiagnosed ADHD and had a terrible time managing my emotions. It wouldn’t take much for me to cry, like getting out in dodgeball. It was easy ammo for the bullies. My parents were very controlling which stunted my social growth and I had very few friends. I remember one of the boys being dared to put his arm around my shoulders at lunch. I thought he legitimately wanted to connect with me until he started counting out loud. All I could do was put my head down in shame…I don’t look back on my childhood very fondly. Things were rough.
It’s so funny to me that we have to circumvent the site’s paywall in order to read an article about pirating.
That illustration with the hook through the film reel is so clever, I love it.
I work in insurance and it’s wild how many insurance carriers have pulled out of Florida and California due to natural disasters. The market is vastly shifting to smaller carriers in these regions.
I’m not sure if you count RiffTrax (it’s all the same guys), but their commentary for The Last Airbender (2010) and Twilight leave me in tears every time.
Open gently, bees are sleeping.
Oh my god, Linux makes you fat.
“Blew pee everywhere”
When getting ready for the day, I put everything I’m going to use on the bathroom counter and put things away as I use each item, that way I don’t forget to do something.
I check the mail and take out the trash / pull the bins up every day when I get home from work. I used to forget often, but making it a “do it every time” thing has made it a no-brainer.
I keep a reusable water bottle on my night stand, in the kitchen, in my car, and on my desk at work. I can’t be bothered to carry a water bottle everywhere, so I have them everywhere. I do almost the same thing with phone chargers.
Have you reported the comment?
It’s also very expensive compared to other finish options like plating or different types of paint. I would be surprised if price wasn’t also a factor.
