  • Consent is one of the harder things to teach cats.

  • I leash/harness train mine. It's nice to be able to mostly walk them around outside like dogs. Also I train them to ride on my shoulders for transportation. That way when they get too lazy to walk back to the house or I need to carry them around for any other reason I can just plop them on my shoulders and they will ride there, keeping my hands free. My neighbors probably think I'm crazy.

    u/VegaLyrae's suggestions are all excellent.

  • Refraction is a harsh mistress.

  • Must pass a background check before entering Home Depot.

  • There's always the explosive diarrhea excuse.

    Or see how long it takes to get kicked out for proselytizing to the other patrons about the strike.

    Whatever you do, at least look the strikers in the eyes as you walk past.

  • Cities can absolutely pass enforceable gun laws. She brought a firearm into a prohibited place, that's not a right.

    And concealed carry should be exactly that. If people can easily see it, that's effectively brandishing (in areas without open carry). That was made abundantly clear at the CC class I attended. Now it's open carry here and doesn't matter.

  • bout 10 years ago, the norm was to, from time to time, drain lithium batteries to minimum and so do a full cycle, this is something my father told me but I actually don’t know the reasoning.

    Early rechargeable batteries such as nickel-cadmium and nickel-metal-hydride would develop "memory". For example if you made a habit of always recharging the batteries once they hit 50%, the battery would think "I guess they don't need the rest of the capacity, I'll throw it in the trash" and you ended up with a battery with half it's original capacity. So it became good practice to occasionally discharge them completely before recharging. Sort of a 'use it or lose it' scenario. Now lithium batteries do not have this issue but it took people a long time to break the habit.

  • To a point. After that you're just making more smoke, and washing out the cylinders, drastically reducing the engine's life. I take some consolation in the fact that most of the bros rolling coal will absolutely not be able to afford a replacement engine once they trash theirs.

  • I think they mean like a gallon of gasoline burned in a car does less environmental damage than the same gallon of gasoline just released into the environment.

    Not saying it is or isn't, just how I took it.

  • Not a chance. Quit yer bellyaching.

  • If he were to actually stand by his principles,

    Oh, my sweet summer child.

  • I think "Who is still using them?" is a better question.

  • I don't think most people mind curated reposts at all. No one wants to see every reddit post copied over en masse. Well, I guess a some do, but they suck, as is covered in the post title.

  • Combine that with the fact that you aren’t just putting it in your body but the body of anyone within breathing distance of you,

    That's part of responsible use. I'm ok with only letting smokers smoke in specialty ventilated & filtered areas. Easy for me to say, I don't smoke. But if any adult wants to make an informed decision to, that should be their choice.

    Put it another way, if cigarettes are legal then marijuana, LSD, MDMA, and a whole host of other drugs should be legal too.

    I emphatically agree.
