Same. Both my mother and my uncle liked to show off their polio vaccine scar. They were proud of it. I’m really glad they’re not like that anymore, but I absolutely am extremely thankful for the wide variety of vaccines available now.

Yeah, keeping our shit to ourselves has never really been our strong suit.

Sorry :(

That’s not really an addiction. More of a neurosis, or possibly an obsession.

The only “risk” is if the people fail to rise up and overthrow Trump. We failed that, we will lose group of all freedom.

Missing the opportunity for a legit decent LinkedIn post?

I dunno. Tempting…

I mentioned in another comment that it must’ve been 8 to 10 years ago when I was sitting in the backyard of some bar in Brooklyn, in the middle of summer, where I saw the last one I ever saw. And I was sitting with a bunch of friends, and I pointed out that it was the only one, and that this might be the last one any of us ever see.

Now I made myself sad

I’ve only ever seen them at sea level, in warm and humid places, usually during the middle to later months of the summer.

For context, I grew up in the 80s and 90s as a kid, and that’s when you used to see a lot of them. But ever since then, they become more and more rare. I knew that, eventually, they’d probably go extinct. I realize this back in the 90s or something.

If I really think about it, the last time I saw one might’ve been between eight and 10 years ago. And I only saw one. And I was sitting in the backyard of a bar in Brooklyn, during a very hot humid summer night after it had been raining, and I was sitting with a bunch of friends and then mentioned to them that this may be the last firefly you ever see.

I really am sad that was right

That’s what I hear

You shouldn’t. We were all fooled. His actions don’t reflect on you.

Google will probably just start playing video ads as soon as you hit. Enter on the search bar.

I don’t think my state of mind has anything to do with whether or not I see fireflies, but the times and places I go haven’t really changed over the last 15 to 20 years. The number of fireflies I see at those times and in those places, on the other hand, has dramatically changed.

They were everywhere when I was a kid. I haven’t seen one in years.

They were so delightful, and I miss them.

Nope

Yikes, Voat. That brings back bad memories…

“PAY ATTENTION TO MEEEE!!!”

Thank you for confirming, once again, that the headline is bullshit click bait, and the “promises“ in the article sound pretty bullshit too.
