A short black. Sometimes chocolate fudge ice cream or something, but rarely.

Get a dehumidifier.

Ensure ceiling fan rotation is switched on summer mode.

Bag of ice in the freezer to chew on and always have in a drink. Ice trays are no good.

Waterhole.

Office job.

Keeping lights off/low can be psychologically “cooler” for some.

Bed with wet hair or damp towel will help sleep faster.

Wash regularly to scrub “ick” layer and keep fresh skin on top.

Pub.

Ice pack vests. Can DIY. Fucking amazing.

Sit around in your undies and pretend you love it and eventually you do.

Go to bed early, sleep well, wake up for a whole new day feeling refreshed.

Yeah, but it is on the internet.

I feel that. Every time I need to upgrade a PC part, it’s like going back to the town I grew up in, but 50 years have passed.

Unfortunately it depends on who’s doing it. Who’s creatively in charge and what freedom they get.

At the moment, it’s reliably bad. Even when the vision is good, it’s dominated by invested poo poo.

It’s hard to tell if it was/is logistically effective vs. everyone shitting in it because that’s trendy rn.

With knowing absolutely nothing, I can only assume it’s an excellent concept that will (unfortunately) help a lot in a broad range of situations.

At the moment, plenty of creases to iron out, but it’s not a failure and humanitarian aid can definitely bolster with it.

I have personally yelled, “Fuck off! No means no you fucking creep!” at the top of my lungs in a crowded bar. It was genuine, but over the top so every other person would turn and see them, ruining their chances of “picking up” at that establishment, forcing them to leave.

“Are you okay?”

“Oh, yeah I’m fine. That guy just needed to learn a fucking lesson.”

That does work too, but not on the ones that put shit on you and demand payment, usually operating as 2+. Their tactic is intimidation and drama—playing the victim to you—but it can not be beaten if you’re playing the role of a happy idiot, providing random or exact opposite behaviour to what they’re attempting.

Scammers abroad: Troll with randomness. Laugh at inappropriate times. Nod at them while making the eating food gesture. Randomly start pointing down a street like you’re trying to give directions but just shrug. Pick a random sports team name and say, “Gooooo EAGLES!” while nodding and dancing. Basically pick some random thing, pretend they said it, and you’re going along with it.

If they’re pointing to friendship braclets, you say “9 o’clock.” even though it’s 1:30. If they keep doing it, you just laugh, nod, and clap.

My favourite is pretending I’m deaf and making up signing. When they start gesturing, I repeat the gesture in shock. When they nod, I act disgusted like they’re sick in the head.

They will very quickly move on since you’re a waste of time. The more awkward you make it, the better, especially if you’re drawing looks from others.

Gee. Would hate to be the crew meant to be returning on that thing. Was a bit of a shitshow getting up there.

Spain’s one of my fav circuits, especially after the last chicane got opened up again. And at the moment, rain may be in the mix on Sunday. Spicy.

It sounds like you just did, but you’re playing it off.

Correct. And the body will continue attempting to throw up so long as it continues experiencing the symptoms of being poisoned. It has nothing to do about an empty stomach, if it still thinks the body has ingested something, it will keep purging.

This is the whole premise of motion and sea sickness, the body thinking it’s poisoned. In the case of alcohol, it actually is.

Do it. The attractiveness of EU cars in China has a lot to do with expression of wealth, status, and exclusivity. It’s free marketing.

Make a cheaper model aimed at the market to offset the tarrif and the logo on front will sell itself.

You gotta remember World Wars take a bit to warm up first. Skirmish here, escalation there, lots of sitting on thumbs for a while, and then everyone piles in after the rate of occupation starts to get out of hand and the aggressors show deft multi-tasking skills.

There isn’t one. At least one that you have a say in. Your purpose is to be a part of nature as you always have and always will be. Your purpose right now is to conduct yourself as you are, since that’s how nature made you to be. You will die, as nature has purposed. You will be re-used as nature has purposed. You will never again be in the natural state you are currently in, but you will always be a part of nature.

Reflect frequently upon the instability of things, and how very fast the scenes of nature are shifted. Matter is in perpetual flux. Change is always and everywhere at work; it strikes through causes and effects, and leaves nothing fixed and permanent.

The only constant is nature. If it has a purpose, you have found yours.

The dilution of “anger from China”.

It’s as long a running joke as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/China’s_final_warning

Seriously, they could be genuine some day. Like warn the world against some major catastrophe, but we’ll assume that if China’s upset, it’s nothing to worry about or may even be something we want to happen.
