    And who supplied them with that outdated information? Could it be, could it be, could it possibly be Israel?🎶

    Oh, NPR is saying as I type that the US also precisely bombed a clinic on the same side of the wall as the school, and “the Pentagon is investigating.”

    Too bad the Pentagon didn’t do any fucking investigating BEFORE they started bombing.



  • Boy is this exactly the sort of “go down to that parking lot and hire a couple of ‘Mexicans’ (whatever country they really come from)” scenario that Trump is ruining in the US.

    Should you live somewhere else, there’s probably unskilled day workers who would hold the other end for a pittance and a lunch, and skilled day workers who would be more expensive but would have the whole thing done by lunchtime if you’d just get out of the way, dinnertime if you help.

    I say crack that box, and/or look online to find the instructions. If you know how to do what’s required, hire the cheap guy who will just do what you say. Still better than drunk friends who will argue with you. And he needs the money.









  • She’s dry and has a blanket for body heat, prefers privacy, and now she has food (probably getting low on mousies after being trapped) and water and an exit if needed. You might crack that window rather than the door, put a box or board to hold it up and block extra air/rain. You’re refilling bowls and scooping the box so you’ll know if she’s gone.




  • Be very careful, boys (and others) have been killed by collapsing sand holes. No matter how fast their friends tried to dig them out. The sand is not just cutting off your air, and filling your mouth and nose if you try to inhale, it’s also a crushing weight on your lungs, much more than avalanche snow for instance. If you want to dig a hole deeper than your chest, do it in more-solid dirt, not sand.


  • Worse, those lemons aren’t fully ripe. Of course you’re adding sugar anyway but they’re going to be low on juice and possibly bitter, so be sure to taste before you ruin other ingredients. Storebought lemons are often dyed so you needn’t try for that look, but at least half of the skin should be a clear bright yellow. And they should twist off without a stem. Lemons ripen slowly, and they keep well on the tree, so you shouldn’t have a bunch like this unless a storm or something brings them down or a branch breaks.
