Brutal. lol
Solid take
I'd boil an ocean to exterminate all mosquitoes
Oh you sweet summer child.
Getting DEET at a high enough concentration to be effective is difficult as hell, Zero, countem fuckin zero OTC bugsprays offer it higher than 15 percent, and 20-25 percent is where it actually starts to matter. Further, that's only a deterrent, and I have been in places where the swarm is so thick you kill bunches just by clapping.
We're not even getting into the midges, which are small enough to breeze through mosquito netting
I have scavenged furniture for years. Furnished houses and apartments and squats and warehouses and busses.
Have never knock on wood had bedbugs.
Learn what they and their eggs look like and inspect the shit you're grabbing first.
Once passed on a really nice couch in a nice neighborhood, because I spotted a half of an ass of one.
The stained old victorian style couch in the winco parking lot was fine though, lol
Lost Boi
Don't recall the author's name, but it's a great retelling of peter pan, pretty quick read
So! There's a place in Philly called the Mutter Museum. Filled with all manner of human specimens of various ailments.
Absolutely fascinating. Like $20 admission. 100% worth it.
A couple of the pieces on display are the skulls and jaws of mouth breathers. I don't know if they had an issue that required surgery that wasn't available in the 1800's, or if it was just bad habits, but.
Literally changes the shape of your bones. And therefore your face.
Fucking wild.
man we are all gonna end up in Gain Ground
You know, fairy tales for children generally involved horror, murder, dismemberment and worse.
To get the kids to be aware of the actual horrors of the world, which are worse.
Hearing a story about, or seeing a fictional or even actual video of some of the fucked up shit people do to each other for stupid fucking reasons is still not actually traumatic.
Experiencing depictions of such shit should absolutely bother you. Should absolutely put you a bit on your toes, in real life, on the daily.
So you can avoid those situations. So you know shit like that's possible, and fucked up fuckers have done it and will do it, and they'll think they're right the whole time.
Because when it does actually happen, that's when it is traumatic, and not just being smart and aware
Ruining your day isn't ruining your life.
Life sucks. Get a helmet
Well, you're a bot I guess. No one I know loves it. Or uses it for much beyond playing around and trying to get it to be stupid. One friend said she used it for apologizing to people, but stopped when that backfired
