I’m super fun at parties, too! ;)

Have to disagree that it’s not a one-person hairdo. It’s a simple French braid. If she had the Barbie lay across her head with the legs pulled back so it was bent at the hips, she could very easily have done it herself and then positioned the Barbie, assuming she can French braid. You’d only need a couple rows of the braid in to hold it securely, at which point standing it back up would pull the legs closer together and tighten everything up so she could finish and have it held securely.

Or if it was left loose enough at the top the Barbie could have been added after, which the green says may be the case (or that could be colored hair gel, dunno)

TIL if a camel spider chases me, I should run like the dickens toward a stationary shadow.

I have no idea when I’ll need that information but I’m glad to have it.

You made me curious so I looked it up. Apparently there’s several things classified as “pope’s hat”.

So the specific one you are asking about is called a mitre, and not just the pope wears them I guess? Abbots, cardinals, bishops, and whomever else do as well, and there are lots of different styles for different groups/sects/whatever. It is thus very difficult to sort out what this article is talking about as someone with zero religious upbringing or education.

Apparently prior to 1927 they weren’t using the mitre at all, and were using a papal tiara, which is frankly quite ugly, so it’s just as well pope Benedict XVI broke tradition and went with the mitre.

In 1963 pope Paul VI was coronated with the tiara, and was the last to be so far.

Also gold and silver count as “white” because the mitre has to be white. So that’s weird af.

There are several styles of papal regalia, so I think it’s, like, a choice? It really doesn’t give a lot of detail on the wiki page about that sort of thing but just based on the number of historical options, popes switching things up, etc. That’s about as much energy as I have to read and report back, so that’s as far as I go.

I’d bet they just tailor a stock one or something for the day 1 thing and then do proper after.

Probably just toggles the visual off for normal running around stuff, but the cutscenes show everything due to poor design.

Meh, I use the same super-weak password for tons of sites I don’t give a flying fuck about.

I took all the military opsec and infosec courses, because I was in intel, and my partner is currently an IT security professional, but some accounts just don’t warrant giving a damn.

I don’t use it for anything important, I let my password manager handle those, but bullshit “create an account to checkout” stuff that I use another payment system for? Meh.

This doesn’t seem like news, beyond looking for something to report on.

It doesn’t. It takes soap to get silicone lube off.

Skill issue.

Use silicone-based lube for water play.

Popping my sternum in public is the highlight of existing some days. It’s loud, and alarming.

I learned I could do it a decade back but it takes a super specific position that took me many more years to work out so I could do it on demand. Feels amazing.

My hyper-flexibility is probably to blame for it, but it’s super fun :)

Those cats look just like my pair, right down to the size difference.

Super cute judgement :)

Is I/O in this context input/output? I’ve seen it used this way before but I’m not super techie so no clue.

Thanks for taking the time to write all that out for me! I appreciate it and I’ll look into some of those!

Have a great day, friend!

Out of those I’ve devoted a ton of time to rimworld and oxygen not included, are any of the others on your list similar, or others you’d recommend for someone who likes them? I tried dwarf fortress but I found it to be… not my bag. I didn’t get very far into it tho.

(I do like mods, so that’s an ok requirement)

It requires building the structure under the greenhouse specifically to support the weight of the greenhouses themselves, plus all the plants, equipment, substrate, and water, plus workers.

Your average existing large-footprint building simply isn’t built to hold that weight - maybe a couple feet of snow - and would need to be heavily remodeled to accommodate it. It also adds a lot to the cost of building new structures, so it’s a sizable investment in either case.

Idk if you’d call that a downside, but that’s why this sort of thing isn’t everywhere.

Yeah, I know it’s income based. That’s why I haven’t made enough to pay it.

What I mean is there were several income-based options, and idk which one I’m on or was on, and idk if that’s still the case because I’ve chosen to do absolutely nothing with my student loans beyond what I’m specifically required to do (was hoping for forgiveness to go through but that didn’t happen). So I’ve only had to file one proof of income form, for example, even though it should have been yearly.

I knew the terms at the time, but it’s been a while so meh.

“When the fuck do they expect me to do this?” Being replaced by “perhaps I should work later” is top tier military satire.

No fucking chance of working late voluntarily. Not paid for it. Only do when told to.

With the damage he did to the door frame, I don’t think homie really needs to work those muscles.

That’s about court and government fees and fines, not student loans. Idk if the two would be in any way related but I see nothing in the article that supports this for student loans specifically.

Do you have anything that does reference student loans?

I’m on an IDR plan (no idea which one at this point, no idea what’s going on with any of it because they keep throwing it into forbearance…)

I don’t make enough to pay it, so after the first year when I got set up with IDR, I haven’t paid a penny.

I graduated with like $17k in debt, and less than a decade later it’s like 30k. I have no intention of ever making another payment. No point. I’d never get through the interest anyway.

Cone of shame has really evolved over time, hasn’t it?
