Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How far back in time could you go with your skills?
3·6 days agoYou probably type too fast for the old typewriters and don’t hit hard enough, but you’d adapt. And don’t forget the carriage return!
Happy fuzzy girl! Also barn cat

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Brushing teeth before going to the dentist has the same motivator as shaving pubes before going to the gynecologist: If someone's going to be looking inside there, you want it to look nice.
4·8 days agoI completely agree. That said, a little lip balm while you’re in the waiting room can help with the chapping.

6·8 days agoI started brushing before going and the visit takes less time now. And I get less of the “hygienist-induced gingivitis” (my phrase for soreness after they poke around in there) so it’s a win for me. It also feels more polite not to be breathing my lunch at them. But it’s your mouth, you do what you like.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How do you pronounce in words the following two references to money: "6½d" and "6s. 6d." from a 1904 text?
2·8 days agoI heard the term “sixpenny nails” the other day (The Rifleman’s son Mark was shopping to fix his chicken coop) so my inquiring mind was already primed to go look it up. Just needed that little nudge from you. Now we both know!

4·10 days agoKnitting needles are too dull for you, Betty. Take up embroidery, the craft for when you want to stab something a thousand times.
(Although, tbf, it’s not a bad idea to have a long metal knitting needle on hand in case what you need to stab is someone’s liver.)

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•We shouldn't have to go to college in order to afford a house by 30.
92·10 days agoGoing to college can inform, but doesn’t cure innate stupidity. And if the student is particularly willful, they can hold onto their ignorance as well.
Case in point: Trump.
Quick before the snow gets too thick?
Be careful up there.
I for one welcome all these Plutoid planets to the planet family.
What’s the downside, we have to make a new mnemonic? Or add a verse to the Blue’s Clues Planet Song? I think we’re capable.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Just opened a new jar of jam, only to find mold in it.English
1251·15 days agoWith that untouched surface, you might be able to get a replacement if you still have the receipt. Depends on the store and if you’re polite about it. (You could probably do it by being rude, but I’d hate you.)
Why the fuck we didn’t just deem Eris into planethood I’ll never understand. Both it and Pluto are arguably more similar to Terra than the gas giants are.

movies@piefed.social•Brendan Fraser & Rachel Weisz In Talks To Return For New ‘Mummy’ Movie From Universal; Radio Silence To Direct
42·17 days agoI’m all for a Brendan Fraser + Rachel Weisz movie, but why do we need a mummy? How about a completely unconnected original story?
Uh-oh, you’ve got an infestation of Smurfs!

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Never buying milk from Walmart againEnglish
1·23 days agoHuman milk tastes different. Some say it tastes a little like canteloupe juice. I thought mine made my coffee taste…odd. Never tried it in baking though.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Never buying milk from Walmart againEnglish
22·23 days agoI would bet the trucks and store refrigerators at Walmart are kept as warm as legally possible, to save money on electricity.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Which food gives you the best bowel movement?
3·23 days agoYep, I buy the big jug of sugar -free orange Metamucil powder and put a rounded tablespoon into a 12 ounce glass. Stir as I pour in the water, so it won’t clump up, and chug it down quickly because it’s more powder per water than recommended and will form a spoonable gel if it stands Which is okay if you’re into that, I’ve eaten it that way, but I’d rather get it down and follow it with a glass of something I like better. I have wondered about making something similar to boba pearls with it. The box of packets is more expensive but at least you could add one to a glass of water in a restaurant and drink it politely.





That photo is a little misleading, here’s a local story with the mugshot:
