Best advice I was ever given?

"Ticker, you'll be a lot happier once you stop caring about the opinions of a culture that is beneath you."

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

Opened my eyes.

It may be overweight but animals are amazing at staying strong with nothing but pacing for exercise. Can sit at the zoo for twenty years and then one day decide to test the limits of the concrete wall like whoa. Just about made it there sher khan :ohdear:

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

You know, at least the tattoo was honest. That's refreshing

Otoh a few hundred people called 911 to complain. Being grumpy is not an emergency.

There's an amber alert system in place that they already regularly use though. They shouldn't use the disaster warning system for it. They're using some assholes calling 911 over it and "won't somebody please think of the children" as a cover for their fuckup

By the way, the system they sent out the message as is the Canadian-branded version of the American Presidential Alert system and as far as I've heard the Americans don't use that for amber alerts, and Trump has even been restrained enough to not just use it as a Twitter substitute

i'm sure it did, the problem is that I am not this child's mother and, in fact, had no idea who this child was or where it may have been, and the amount of help that I, and everyone else involved, could provide to the authorities would have been unchanged if the alert had come in through the normal amber alert channel instead of the top-level, holy poo poo, Tu-95s spotted over Ottawa, make peace with your loved ones channel that causes my phone to emit a nuclear air raid siren

BattleMaster
Aug 14, 2000

Yeah that's why I'm even posting about it in here, because the weird part of the story is that they used the 2019 version of an air raid siren for it

edit: people using 911 as a complaint line is also pretty :psyduck: like i don't even know how to get into their heads to understand the thought process for that. Even calling the non-emergency police line for it would be weird

Yet no one in my family got it, and only a few of my friends got it.

So it's not a great system at all.

Exploration is ill-advised.

I remember there being problems within the Mormon community of tons of unmarried women because young men sent off to be missionaries kept loving off and never coming back.
