Took Fritha out for a walk since I knew she'd need to poop before the snow hits. She's bundled up in a nice dog jacket, her doggles & earpro. She also decided to drink water from nearby puddles and now is vomiting on the living room carpet. At least she's doing it next to the sliding door so I can let her out immediately.

Haven't knowingly met or gone to school with any murderers, but off the top of my head: - a girl from my first elementary school was a morning show host on Toronto TV. She and her brother now have a morning radio show - two guys from my high school have won the Stanley Cup (the hockey trophy, not the beverage tumbler), one was in my graduating class and the other in the next class - another guy from my graduating class has won a Juno (Canadian Grammy) and was nominated for 4 other Junos - well after my time, first runner-up in the first season of Canadian Idol was a student at my high school And from my college, also after my time, a then (now ex-) girlfriend of Michael Phelps, and White House press assistant under Trump.

I ate to much, hit a steak house and got a big rear end burger with strips of pork belly, onion rings and bbq sauce. With a big ole scoop of potato salad on the side.

No idea what could cause voters, especially Republican voters, to just automatically assume everyone with dark skin is a foreign born Muslim. https://x.com/aterkel/status/1745976055536508973?s=20

I went to the same high school as the guy who created a production company who's done some rather famous shows including Welcome to Wrexham and Last Chance U. He played Harold Hill in our production of The Music Man when I was a sophomore and a simple cast member with no speaking roles.

They're all absolute loving monsters, but he's one of the more entertaining ones, and a complete lunatic. He got rich on an IPO for a company that never actually made anything. It was some medical thing, he didn't commit outright fraud (or at least didn't get caught) so it's not quite the same as Elizabeth Holmes, but at least people like Zuckerberg or Musk were involved in making things that people use everyday (they probably shouldn't, but they do). He got rich off vaporware. One of the most entertaining things in the Republican primaries for 2016 was watching Trump just absolutely destroy all of the other candidates, and well, we saw where that got us.

Pablo Torre is out in these streets saying Vivek was That rear end in a top hat in college, because of course they went to college together. If somebody who went to Harvard is saying “this guy was too pretentious and up his own rear end for Harvard” then that sounds pretty awful. You also are not paying me to pay attention to the GOP circus, so I’m not volunteering any brain cells to it. Moving away from not just the city but the country helps to lose touch of a lot of people from high school, turns out I only lived there for 3/4 of high school anyways, so it’s not like lifelong friends. I’m sure plenty of people are doing well from there, but not too many super high profile so far as I can tell.

Going to go shovel, take my kid to gym class and then go sledding. Probably going to be crowded because it’s in the 20’s today, but single digits tomorrow, so everyone will be out today.

I'm completely snowed in. My building's maintenance guy had a heart attack while shoveling the snow from Wednesday, and right now there is a magnificent, majestic and utterly mad pile of snow between my side door and the parking lot. Guess it's time to drink coffee, smoke weed and play a bunch of video games for a weekend.

Eastern Iowa is just a madhouse right now; my fiancée literally can't get out of her driveway because there's a foot of snow there. A friend of mine who works part-time at Hy-Vee (Midwest grocery store chain, think Publix) on the side for some extra cash says the shelves are bare because they haven't been able to get trucks there for stocking. I guess it's Mother Nature's revenge for November and December being utterly dry.

Shoveling snow can be a taxing activity and with your body under the stress of being in inclimate weather, it makes total sense that the out-of-shape are at increased risk of a heart attack. Still waiting for the snow to hit my part of Portland. My shovel stands ready though.

C-Euro posted:The side door doesn't also involve stairs? Or is it like stairs on the outside leading up to the front door? The latter. I live in a tiny studio apartment (literally the only rooms are my living room--which is also my kitchen--my bathroom and my bedroom), but there's a flight of stairs to get out my front door, and ergo a flight up the stairs to get back in that way. The side door opens to a walkway that leads directly into the parking lot behind the building.

I feel like I’m destined to die of a heart attack while shoveling. Mostly because I refuse to let other people do it so I’m sure I’ll be 75 and out there shoveling some wet sloppy snow and my heart will give out.

Leperflesh posted:dark chocolate peanut butter cups from trader joes are better than regular reeses https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5YW-5Flkiuw The peanut butter cup thing pays off at the end, but it's worth listening to the whole thing. I pulled up the US map forecast to see how many of my coworkers were going to be affected, and did think about you in ND when I saw it was significantly worse there than here. It's such a pain figuring out how to dress to blow the driveway knowing it's going to be ungodly cold at first, but not wanting to sweat after walking up and down it a few times.

The hospital employees here call the wet, heavy stuff widowmaker snow. There is an influx of heart attacks when it snows, but that's far and away the worst.

The other thing I do is "start cold", where I'm actually a tad under-dressed and feel really cold when I start, knowing I will heat up when I am more active. My outer shell having vents like armpit zippers comes in clutch too as when I get too hot I can vent out a little.
