As someone trying to diet, 100% the calorie deficit 😖

Naptime buddy ♥️

Yep, when startled, she lets out a little "mmmrrrt!"

Oh my god those eyes!

That looks dang delicious!

You know I thought about deleting my account, but with a combination of nostalgia and the hope that some of my comments would still be useful led me to decide to just leave it in stasis.

So far, pretty much everything I've posted on Lemmy has been new OC, but I think I'll start scraping and reposting some of my old reddit posts eventually.

I used to comment a lot more than I would post back on Reddit, but I've been putting in an effort to try to build up communities here, both my own and others. So I've been scraping all my old pictures to find useful content, and as a result, have more posts than comments.

Oh cool, I'd love to see your photos.

As much as I'm biased towards pretty pictures, posts about life in the desert are also welcome.

I've got relatives in Phoenix, and I was alarmed to learn that checking your shoes for scorpions before putting them on is standard procedure for them!

Well did you like it?

I've tried my hand at pho before, a ton of ingredients and 12 hours later I got just an okay result. Makes me appreciate the joint down the road that sells a bowl for $11.

Is there a way you can try to get on Vyvanse? You sound a lot like where I was at 6 months ago (constant burnout, never able to recharge, executive disfunction with every task).

It took a couple tries to find a therapist who would listen to me (and hearing the horror stories, I know I was fortunate), but being on Vyvanse has been night and day. It has its downsides and isn't some miracle drug, but it's allowed me to get to a place where I don't feel like I'm constantly drowning.

Eh, for all their advertising, Red Bulls are actually on the weaker side for energy drinks.

Oh definitely still glad we visited, the whole area was still breathtakingly beautiful. I really want to come back one summer and spend more time hiking, hopefully with more sun!

So jealous you had good weather! I was just there at the tail end of May, and we had constant rain/snow/hail. The locals said it was really unseasonably cold weather.

This is either a work of singular art or complete and utter madness.

Some would say all art requires at least a touch of madness.

Sure did!

Varies depending on the site, sometimes it's gasoline, or solvents, or heavy metals or PFAS. As for how it happens, accidental or deliberate releases. I've found military documents from the 50s that say the official place to dispose of used motor oil was a pit they'd dug in the ground.

It's pretty depressing, but the fact that soil and groundwater are almost certainly contaminated anywhere that humans have touched. I've seen all kinds of places from gas stations, to dry cleaners, to mines, to fire stations, to military bases, to schools, to hydroelectric plants, the list could go on, and every last one of them had poison in the ground.

Promise?

Ahahahah, these were rosemary olive oil flavor, which actually went quite well the meats
