  • IDK as a guy this doesn’t seem weird at all. If anything, it sounds like she likes him and is willing to put in work to make him feel more comfortable and make the relationship successful. She doesn’t really use any dehumanizing language and the way she connects the dots between what she notices in dogs and her date seems very empathetic. If anything, the guy’s lucky to have found someone with so much emotional intelligence and hopefully she’s getting out what she’s putting in



  • We recently moved in a very rural area. The rural carrier for our new route gave us a form to fill out, and by the end of the week we were receiving mail. UPS and FedEX on the other hand, wouldn’t deliver to us for a month. USPS will carry our packages up our driveway to our steps; UPS and FedEX throw them in the ditch by the mailbox.

    Also, did you know you can buy stamps, cards, and envelopes directly from the rural carrier? Here’s a fun quote from the rural customer registration form:

    Rural carriers maintain a supply of stamps, cards, and envelopes for sale. Additionally, your carrier will accept Certified Mail™, Registered Mail™, insure packages, and prepare money orders. Generally, rural carriers can extend practically all services available at a Post Office. Please purchase a sufficient supply of stamps and affix proper postage on all outgoing mail.

    Imagine how bleak things would be if Amazon was running the show. USPS is truly the best




  • First they came for social safety nets, and I helped them along, for that’s more money in my pocket

    Then, they came for the minimum wage worker, and I helped them along, for that’s more money in my pocket

    Then they came for the forests, trees and all natural things, and I helped them along, for that’s more money in my pocket

    And when they finally came for the stocks and unregulated securities and offshore accounts, there was no one left to defend me





  • Truck being driven was most likely one of These (notice the hydraulic arm for the concrete chute on the front and in the video). Concrete probably sloshed out of the top and thus down the chute onto the car. IDK if there’s a way to close these up when in “transport” mode.

    There’s no way to tell if the truck is going too fast since we don’t know the speed limit of the road nor the truck’s actual speed. Regardless that’s a lot of weight you need to stop in a short period of time even if the driver was going under the speed limit.

    My armchair guess is genuine accident caused by poor visibility with the bush in the way and the driver understandably freezing up with a giant ass truck barreling up on them
