Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I just suggested to an incoming college freshman that if they can just refrain from all jamming into one room to lick each other for a week, things will probably be OK.

Toddlers and college students, the two populations most likely to have their tongues in places they probably should not.

May I use these quotes elsewhere? There's a new crop of college students living across the street from me.

my liberal cousins in Fayetteville!

I have a cousins in Fayetteville. I'm pretty sure they are not liberal.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

On second thought, mine might be in Rogers?

And by all means!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Like in Blueberries for Sal!

Kinda! Except less heartwarming and more send Granddad out with the rifle (fruitlessly [sorry]).

I mean, that makes more sense, honestly.

And the internet tells me that Target also has everything bagel blend for sale and even the supermarket might (I refuse to register with them so can't actually see what's on the shelves).

Thrive to spite them

Laura, most noise cancelling head phones (or all Iv'e been able to research) don't block out voices. The idea is that they block out or reduce super loud noises but still allow you to hear. So the ones I've had even if I can't exactly h ear someone talking or the tv it's ...muffled but a lot clearer since there aren't any other sounds.

I do have some noise reducing ear muff things I can wear but it doesn't really help the way I want and they aren't very comfortable for certain things.

And it only took less than a day for the sniping at each other to start.

You can certainly use mine.

Hey. New board.

Or I suppose I could just buy the ingredients next time I go to the regular supermarket.

I was just going to say what you already said - this is available basically everywhere now. I bought mine at Aldi but saw a normal brand at a Cub Foods (standard supermarket) too last time I was in the US.

They do NOT however sell it in Brazil.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Thought- which is safer- a 15 minute ride with an unmasked Uber driver or a 1.5 hour bus ride on a fullish bus with masks enforced?

I'd think the unmasked Uber driver if you can keep the windows open.

Good, because that is what I am doing! I am going to work to pick up a GO Pro camera so I can record videos of my hands on the iPad
