We have a driving service here where the guys have little folding electric scooters (the kind with a seat, think motocampo style). You book them ahead of time and they scoot up, fold the scoot and pop it in the boot/trunk/frunk, and drive you home.

It's been going for decades and it's very popular, we've got one booked for our next work social. The company/drivers have insurance for any vehicle type, and obviously they get experience in a lot of different cars. We did have to talk one guy through getting going in our Nissan Leaf but it was no trouble.

Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

Somebody caught a video of a fox on their ring doorbell camera and foolishly posted it since foxes are cool. I actually saw an albino fox in our neighborhood last year and it was a pretty awesome experience. Anyway, a lot of brain geniuses are convinced it's actually a coyote.

Coyote based on the pattern

A bunch of actual animal experts then confirm it's a fox, the neighborhood has fox dens, and foxes are known to build dens around residential areas because it helps keep predators away. Somebody else posts a video from their house with a fox (maybe even the same one) and it's very obviously a fox in that video.

I remember years back I saw an ad for a service called Dial-A-Driver which was basically a designated driver for hire, who'd get dropped off and drive you home in your car when you're under the influence. It seemed to me like a neat idea, but on some thought I can see how logistically it'd probably end up not worth it.

And that on the other hand is definitely logistically sensible.

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

Yep there are. The kind you get a prescription for from your veterinarian after you actually get your cat diagnosed by a professional

Yes, I know I'm old, get off my fucking lawn so I can yell at these clouds.

Pumpkin puree also works great. Not pumpkin pie mix - that's got cinnamon and other stuff cats shouldn't eat - but straight up pumpkin puree. Mix it in with their regular food, it's just water and fiber that shoots straight through them.

You don't even get a prescription. I had a Maine Coon/Manx mix that randomly got stopped up, and the vet told me to just give her Miralax.

New job opportunity just dropped.



We had a guy working with us on construction sites who was awful at time management and chronically late, but did actual good work if and when he showed up. We had another guy who was always on time but just really sucked at his job. We used to joke if we could get the second guy to drive the first guy around they'd both combine to be one really good employee.

That's what our vet gave us for the dog. Works to fix both diarrhea AND constipation.

There was someone who heard gunfire but they also had a bullet hole in their house thr next morning and shell casings were found in the park across the street so I am willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Complaining about beach parking is one of the recurring themes on my local nextdoor. And rightfully so. The beach is supposed to be public access but all the homeowners on the island don't want any outsiders and make it hella expensive to park after you spend an hour looking for a space.


Also they're having a debate whether you should kill snakes you find because they eat rats. And what is a bigger nuisance: rats or snakes?
Help how do I get rid of the mongoose I released to get rid of the snakes I released.

I just this moment saw the connection on the right, with the orange connector where the whole setup goes into the wall, and hopefully to some kind of outside drain.
Up until then it looked like the only outlet was upwards, which was horrifying to me.

The orange bits are spray foam to seal up the wall gap between the piping & drywall. The pipe going up is either a vent pipe that sticks up out of the roof or a drain for an upper floor or both, the lower piece that goes through the wall is the drain to sewer. Honestly ppl the whole thing is basically fine. The right side is pretty hacky but those flex couplings work well enough I guess. The vent & sink drain locations would have made a proper p-trap a little more difficult to build in; this is basically the lazy version. And all the bends and u's and whatnot are normal plumbing; you need a p-trap/gas trap on all your sink drains to keep your kitchen from smelling like poo poo. lol goons

I was sitting here thinking I missed something super obvious. The hacky trap looks like it should work fine.

Not only that but they look like someone took a cardboard prop car and made it 40% bigger than a normal car. It is so comically wrong looking it’s distracting to drive next to. I saw it coming up on me in my rear view mirror and I burst out laughing.
