I'd be so tempted to name that cat "What?" or "Huh?" Lol

I've played around with both tubes and dry "blocks". For best of both worlds, you can get palettes that come in a box with removable sections that can be filled with whatever color paint. I filled these with paint from tubes, and by keeping the box closed it will mostly retain moisture of the paint while storing. If left long enough they will dry out, but being water colors, I just mist them with water and they work again.

The one I have is basically like this https://a.co/d/j4TrTo6 .

Also - you can get brushes that hold water! It's basically a brush with a water chamber, and you squeeze it to put more water into the bristles. Makes it easy to travel, but for me it's far less messy and keeps the colors cleaner.

Let's reframe this a moment -

Wealthy person 1 "you ever go hungry?"

Wealthy person 2 "no, not at all"

Wealthy person 1 "I have no idea what that poor person was complaining about."

Thus the giant rocks I see on either side of the end of some driveways. Possible car damage seems to be a helpful deterrent to driving through the grass.

Nope - absolutely the same here. There's typically a stretch of property facing the street and potentially in an adjacent alley where the homeowner is responsible for basic maintenance (mowing the grass) but it's used for utility access and may be taken off they decide to widen the roads. I'm sure exceptions exist, but less commonly.

They do, just not in the units you're familiar with. They do calories per serving, and very commonly servings per package (in cases where people may be likely to eat the entire thing.) When listing serving sizes, where appropriate the serving sizes is described (how many pieces) and a weight in grams is listed.

Here's an example (haven't gotten around to posting images - sorry for the link.)

Proud of consuming truckloads of food? I must have missed that memo. Alternative take - overstressed, overworked, and struggling to survive, seeking out any kind of dopamine or serotonin bandaid to make the struggle with bothering for one more day worth it. It's not something people typically WANT to do, but it can be an unhealthy coping mechanism when options are limited.

I'm in a southern Chicago suburb. Yesterday it was over 70 degrees, last night we had hail and tornadoes, then I wake up to snow flurries. There are trees and plants doing things they shouldn't for weeks and I suspect my spring allergies are already starting.

While part of me is embracing the "milder" days, it's also a bit unnerving.

Definitely different handwritings going on. My guess is someone fucking around with a younger siblings homework.

If you spend time (often years) + money (tens of thousands) + putting your body through treatments (hormone therapy to harvest eggs) + significant emotional investment to achieve any very personal goal (to carry a child into your family) only to have that taken away, heartbreak is one of the most appropriate descriptors.

You're on the right track, but not quite there.

You're right that rare steak is ok because the outside surface has been cooked killing external contaminants. But the contaminants in chicken can exist throughout the meat, therefore it needs to be brought to temp all the way through.

I'm assuming that housing and utility expenses are being paid on their behalf, so yes. That should count.
