I want another one. Big dogs are the most cuddly. Both my former (RIP) and current big boys are total softies who get picked on by small yappers because we've been so emphatic that they not react.

My boiler shut down and flashed error lights this morning. A bit of googling suggested it might be the condensate drain blocked with ice, and a kettleful of hot water and a reset (also courtesy of the internet) later it started up again. I feel POWERFUL. And the cats are ecstatic. In a quiet, lying-on-the-bed-next-to-the-radiator kind of way. (The manual for it is bloody useless though.)

If a dog like that decides that today is a bad day, what can you realistically do? I suppose my parents' dachshund could try to murder someone, but generally speaking he's quite happy being carried around and trying to get a treat, but with a hefty guy like that, I couldn't exactly seeing myself bodying them, and never mind the jaws and teeth  Disclaimer: Doggies are nice if you are nice to them, so always treat any dogs you have with love and affection, so they grow up thinking people are generally speaking nice.

 *reminds self where taxes go* "Ah yes, government! I'm sure they're appropriately and proportionately spread across essential services to provide for the wider community and don't see any filthy hands grabbing at it via means of corruption" How about you donate a million to various charities and organisations that actually do something good in this world instead of flying to Davos to pretend to give a poo poo.

Huskies do have attitudes and will sometimes have a go at dominance. My malamute had a lovely character and was very well behaved, but very occasionally just decided he was in charge. I did have to pin him when that happened, until he calmed down. It's not easy by any means, but they don't get hurt (aside from their egos).

In fact while donating to charity etc. is a good thing, the whole reason that Clement Attlee, a tory by birth, became radicalised to the idea of socialism was by working for a charity in inner London and realising that no amount of private charity could cover the enormity of what was needed to improve the lives of the poor, and that only an institute like the state could make a difference. And I'll take a rich guy saying "raise my taxes to make the world a better place" over freaks like the barclay brothers here or the kochs in the US using their ill-gotten wealth to lobby behind the scenes.

A handful of millionaires deciding out of their own rational interest to donate to a handful of charities that they decide do the most good rather than taxing all millionaires just gets you 'effective altruism'.

Quick question, for a neti pot in the UK is it safe to use tap water or is it as dangerous as all the results say it is for the US? No matter how much I try and tell google I do not give a flying gently caress what the US government says it keeps giving me only US sources where it's like "yeah our water is 90% syphilis by volume"

Some tap water in England has naegleria fowleri, the amoeba that rapidly and irreversibly consumes your brain if introduced via the nose. It's like that game show with Noel Edmonds in that there's only one way to find out and it smells like burning poo poo and then your cognitive ability declines to that of a sea sponge.

Since they had to close the baths in Bath over it, at least. It may be a slightly different species of brain eating flagellate, but that's probably not the main issue.

Tesseraction posted:Pretty sure a dog that big lacks the instincts to be violent. Selectively bred to be big strong dumb babies. Depends on the dog. Sometimes they're bred that big because someone actually does want a gigantic furry killing machine, like the Black Russian Terrier, a breed created by the KGB during World War II to do all the things that you'd expect the KGB to want enormous dogs to do.

Only problem with kettle water is, particularly in winter, there's like 5 second period where the water isn't so hot it'll scald you before it then detects you're trying to use it so it drops to 5 degrees
