You made points others didn’t, and your edit demonstrates another aspect of the alone/crowd response to a prompt.

Laughing with a “crowd” supports you until you realize you were alone all the time, whereas thinking you’re the only commenter frees you to share your insights, but finding you were part of a crowd made you embarrassed about it. Don’t be. We all know being first allows comments to get more points, but more slowly typed comments also add value to the conversation.

So basically winged cats

Sorry guys, we know it’s a problem for you, but you’re gonna have to carry this to term.

You can’t just post something like this without making sure they’re okay! Like either they’re being adopted or at least their mother is coming right back to take care of them, and is getting plenty to eat! And someone is going to see they all get spayed/neutered, including mom!

True, but also the consequences of living homeless in New England would force you to either come up with some kind of way to afford shelter or move south. Whereas more homeless people die on the streets in California than you might expect, but the perception is that you can live outdoors safely all year. So there’s less incentive to scrape together enough money for a home.

Add to that, very few people move to New England with a crazy idealistic view of their opportunities to make it big. If they move there at all, it’s because they have a job lined up. Dreamers crash and burn in California every day.

Or anthropomorphizing it, expressing sympathy for it, in a country with a lot of suicides and a love of robots.

The fact they’re not going to just replace it with another robot could argue for either case.

Did it, though? My 90 year old mother used it in the same way since her childhood. I think it’s always been sarcastic, probably from use by lowly soldiers. In the phrase, she pronounces and spells it as “gummint work” even though she would normally say “government.”

Well that’s gone to shit in the ensuing 10 years.

Okay, for those who only read the headline and not the article, the text is the Bhagavad Gita.

So, not poster-sized. More like adding a Bible to the library. I think you’re going to run into a tldr problem there. I don’t know the Gita, is there a shorter excerpt that could be on a poster?

The bread is not shown but it could be on the side or maybe OP ate it because it came out first

If you get to the Pearly Gates as a fat mole rat, point out to St Peter that with climate change and rising ocean levels, Heaven may need your attributes soon.

It’s just the spiders under your skin.

But maybe it’s the nerves or capillaries that run through the layers of fat and skin, as walking shakes them up and gets the blood pulsing through. Even in fit people the skin shakes a little as it slides back and forth over the moving muscles. Once you get into a serious workout, there’s too much other sensation from the muscles and tendons, and the blood vessels are as busy and hopefully open as they’re going to get.

Bear in mind I have no actual idea, just speculating.

Fries and salad, I think

Signaling greed

If it were a vampire bat, could be the same thing!

Cringing means you’re better now than you were then.

Besides, after seeing the debate, the sense of doom is going to keep me up all night anyway.

Obviously society is broken, and guns are doing a lot of the breaking. The people teaching these classes agree about that as well. But they’re not in a position to fix that. They’re trying to use the skills they have to mitigate one part of the fuckedness. Maybe two parts: a kindergartner could perhaps save their friend’s life one day, and in the meantime they’re already having justified nightmares about shootings, so maybe the lesson will let them turn those dreamstories in a slightly better direction.

Train station cat has so many people to judge

It could only help.

Don’t go petting Bison.

I don’t really care if you die but they don’t like people petting them, and those of us who respect them enough to just watch them don’t want overfamiliar people causing them to stay too far away for us to see them.

Do feel free to pay a visit to a pet shelter and spread some love around even if you can’t take one home.
