  • Speaking as someone with no skin in the game (I have no pets and I've never had weeks old bags of dog poop in my bin), does any dog poop keep the racoons away from your bins?

    I also don't have racoons getting into my trash (I do not overfill my trash bin and it is always left closed) but I do see their little paw prints appear on my trash can sometimes.

  • I have rarely gone to get fast food in the last few years, a lot of the reason because of the cost. That, and quality has gone down a lot even with price increases.

    The times I have gone, were because I was short on time. I miss the days I could overlook the poor quality due to the cost.

  • Yeah, like sticky spoons! This one task has another task stuck to it and it's gross and annoying and takes another spoon to deal with. These are the bane of my existence.

    Sweeping or vacuuming the floor is one. I have to clear off the floor before actually sweeping. Sometimes there's a bag of laundry in the way so I need to either move it or put it away.

    Laundry is another one. I need a place to be able to fold stuff. So the bed or a table needs to be cleaned off. If the bed sheets aren't clean, got to deal with that. I usually get to the table. Where I first need to clear it off, which usually is covered in my daughter's and partner's stuff. Then I need to clean it.

    Same thing with cleaning the kitchen counters. I have to move everything off first. Sometimes that is dirty dishes. What I try to do to mitigate that is to unload the dishwasher and dish drainer every morning. Then as I make new dirty dishes, I load them in the dishwasher or hand wash them. That way there isn't a big pile. Unfortunately my partner has been taking care of the kitchen and everything is a mess. I can't get to it because I am dealing with household work only I can do. (She is more disabled than me...) But sometimes I have to clean the kitchen for her because she gets sick or something and it is so much harder because she doesn't have a system and it is chaos and dirty dishes everywhere. Some pretty old.

    I will say one thing that helps me is I have bins for my partner's and daughter's wayward stuff. If they left something out and it's in my way, I put it in their bin. My partner appreciates it. My daughter takes some convincing to put the stuff away. It makes it so much easier for me to get my tasks done. Before I would either have to address each and every thing to them before I can get my own thing done.

    One thing I decided wasn't worth my time and extra energy: cast iron, not the ceramic coated kind. No way I'm taking take of that. Uncoated stainless steel for life!

  • Yeah I used to love MSI and never really listened to the lyrics closely. Dude covers songs by black artists and straight up sings the N word.

    See also his cover of "Big Poppa"

    The more I looked into Jimmy Urine, the more problematic it got, like grooming a teenage girl.

  • Voting is one (important) part of what you need to do if you're an American.

    Do what you can outside of elections as well, like writing to your representatives, getting involved in local politics (it matters!), and attending protests/marches.

  • I believe it's called a bone hurting juice meme.

    It would be an antimeme if the person in the first panel said something like "someone give me a thumbs up"

    The distinction is that the bone hurting juice meme takes an element of the meme and transforms it into something else, and an antimeme just over explains it.

  • It is absolutely infuriating when you bring up a scenario like this and the "pro-life" say "there's exceptions when it's a real emergency."

    Then of course they either victim blame or stay silent when the scenarios we described do happen.
