Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

But also because you no longer come out to your car and find drunks sleeping in it?

That is a plus!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

My rescue hair attempt made it look better, but it's still not right. Even with Plei's great advice.

See how it looks after three days. That's my usual rule of thumb if home hair dye looks wonky. Most of my near disasters when I was still using chemical dyes settled down into something I could deal with after three days.

Regarding hot roots, you can still get them even when your chemical tint is a darker color than your own hair. If your scalp runs fairly warm, as mine does, a typical dye can overlift. Some dyes were worse for it than others on me, thus my love of the deposit-only colors.

Nutrisse has a good reputation for off-the-shelf color of the non-demi form.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

you're literally a PhD

I'm not even figuratively a PhD, and I get that I can't afford a house. What I don't get is how people can do the subtraction and look at how much is left over at the end of the month and think "Sure! I can do that!" and sign in blood.

I would love to see examples of this predatory behaviour so I could see how misleading it is.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

What I don't get is how people can do the subtraction and look at how much is left over at the end of the month and think "Sure! I can do that!" and sign in blood.

Because what they're shown is a payment they *can* afford and the math works out.

But the math has to stop hugely short of reality, and I want to see that pitch, how they handwave over the fact that it's not sustainable.

How do the right questions go unasked?

You know what's hell? 6 months in, discovering that there was something that was supposed to be your responsibility but no one ever told you that it existed, much less how to do it and now you've got six months of a very tedious backlog to go through. In the next 2 weeks.

It's going to be close.

That's kinda ugly.

But soon, cute!

Because at a guess, the person showing the unrealistic math doesn't give the people who should ask the questions enough time to think of them.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I think he's cute now. And the National Zoo has a new baby kiwi ... but I haven't been able to get a link to the picture.
