Uh where can it go from there

Are there lots of French who can’t easily tell left from right? I feel like one of the few sad Americans who can’t. Would love to know why. I always chalked it up to a lack of coordination.

Love the pantaloons being anatomically accurate. Also that feathered hand holding the pipe… Super nice.

Really? Wow, what part of the world are you in?

Every Central American I know actively thinks it’s gross. In Germany, peanut butter (when you can find it) has a huge American flag on the jar, and most Germans won’t eat it.

Excellent summary of the comments section. That was also my take away.

WHAT IS THE POOP KNIFE

Guessing both.

Peanut butter is weirdly American, but as an American, I can’t believe other countries not only aren’t obsessed with PB, but often don’t even like it. Wtf world. You’re missing out.

I just broke my first bone! The x-rays were exciting, and the tech emailed me the pictures!

I think it’s so cool to see what happens to your brain with the effects of various chemicals. We’re so convinced of our own sanctity, and feeling the world differently just disavows you of that in a few minutes.

I think LSD should be a common coming of age right. We’d all be better off, and better for each other, if we could realize we’re each just a tiny blip in the world.

Maybe that’s bc you’re just not as traumatized by them as the rest of us.

I’ve been wanting to rewatch. Nice.

And a hearty “fuck yea” for In Bruges, too

Telling 8th grade content teachers that they must modify their assignments to accommodate migrant students and English learners, and that just directly translating those documents forever wasn’t going to cut it. Gosh there was a lot of grumbling in the room.

I get it, we’re short staffed and overwhelmed, but it doesn’t make it go away.

Or toxic! Don’t forget toxic.

Whoa, what model only requires a monthly charge?

As soon as they require me to use a Google account I’ll get rid of mine, too. It’s coming soon.

Deadlifts fixed my backaches at age 29. Haven’t had any issues since as long as I keep up the routine.

I’m pretty skinny, but I hate being hungry. I wish I were better about tolerating hunger, and it’s something I could work on, but it’s not a requisite skill. Just in case that’s useful info for somebody.

Ricecake’s comment is great. Wanting to eat is also often not actually hunger, and being able to distinguish between sensations is a skill. For example, I always think I’m really hungry the days before menstruating, and I do eat more, but often it’s stomach cramps and hormonal changes that food does not satisfy. You’d be surprised at how long it’s taken to see that pattern.

Huge parts of Mexico are in a major drought right now, so there’s literally not enough water to go around. There is also a housing shortage in the cities (due to a lack of building new apartments, and due to the shortage of older tree-lined neighborhoods - as elsewhere, what’s being built now is not enough and not so nice), and gentrification is creating an affordability issue. It’s not dissimilar to the dissatisfaction in some US cities. Some of this is exacerbated by “digital nomads” who moved during COVID, but it’s also due to longer term government issues very similar to what the US is facing.

Anyway, “Gringo go home” is not an uncommon phrase graffitied on walls. I’d love to move there, but I don’t want to make life more difficult for locals, or be perceived as doing so.
