Lawful Irritated

Feels very much like there should be a little "bleh!" next to that guy

I never should've doubted you!

I was stymied by that too! But (if you haven't already) you may wanna check the user manual, because the washer switch i was so intimidated by just unplugged from one side & plugged in the other!

Your mileage may vary, of course!

This may not be welcome news, but most modern front-loading washers & dryers are designed so you can re-orient the doors without moving the machines. Usually only takes a screwdriver & 20 mins total.

We suffered the same door situation for... 6 years? before I figured this out 3 weeks ago.

This sounds like a worse version of the problems I have going to minnesota (which i love!).
Minnesota has a penchant for frontage roads, so when you miss a turn you get to stare at your destination in impotent rage until it disappears behind you.

Minnesota: You Can't Get There From Here!

Hard to say if it's my absolute fave movie, but Mary Poppins WAS my very very first crush when I was tiny.

I completely felt like I was gonna pass out meeting "her" (cast member) at Disney World when I was like 5-6.

This is the crux for me.
Art contains some form of intent &/or meaning.
AI cannot think/feel/reason, therefore nothing it extrudes can contain intent or meaning on its own. It's just noise.

Many years ago someone told me that firm butt (hip-ish area) rubs mimics a nomming thing dogs do with dog-friends, so it's a great way to quickly build rapport when meeting a new dog.

Aside from dogs with sore hips or aggression, butt rubs have never let me down.

A bit bummed it looks better than it tastes.

Our cheap pizza protocol is adding some shredded mozz & chopped up pepperoni to totino's frozen square pizzas. This is way better than you would expect.

Well, I think the show came out a few years later. We'll say annoying 10 year old.

I got into mythology from books in my elementary school library, so I got to be a really annoying 7 year old about how Xena "wasn't accurate".
(Still loved the show!)

I'm so appreciative of our mighty hunter Goblin.
His first 6 months were as a barn kitten, so he's the most competent mouser (and occasional garter snake) I've ever seen.

I'm absolutely prioritizing barn-kitten adoption years from now when he leaves us.

I hate that *too much sleep* results in feeling hungover for a day. It's so dumb.

She sounds like she'd be full of great stories.

OK, first bout of creative frenzy over.
Next I'll try a close portrait sketch because.... that face is suboptimal.

Beginning stages sketch of a Sprite paladin in flight, with a shield and twig club.

My D&D group all just rolled new characters.
I've gotten so excited about mine (homebrew Sprite species, with eventual homebrew Oath of Protection paladin) that I dug out my old sketchbook to do a couple character drawings.
Off to a good start, I think, considering I'm a rusty amateur.

Honestly, it's just good for the soul to snarf down something with your bare hands on occasion.

"I'm sorry i'm really good at it" is the best line.

Good work all around, kids.
The group defending that girl, AND the guy in plaid helping deescalate people away from the car once that shit-stain retreats.

Gotta appreciate the chutzpah.

Our cat Goblin is starting to feel his age in a way that only creates more foolishness.
There's a 7ft tall bookshelf in my wife's office that he can still jump on top of, but he's not confident enough to get back down.
So randomly he just starts screaming from the bookshelf & we have to rescue him.

Oooh, that's a trap with TEETH.

Immeasurably true!

One can only hope.

I just can't articulate why or how this exchange moved the emotional tenor of "titties & whistles" from "Haha, good one!" to "this is IMPORTANT fun" in 2 seconds.

Heck yeah!

This is delightful!
Man, it's HARD to read these old stories without the feeling they accumulated a few different people's fetishes over many retellings.
We got feet stuff! Furries! Something vaguely non-con gay/trans! More to come, i'm sure.

I'm genuinely impressed you caught yourself enough to leave a dainty nose print, and not a full face print!
Fingers crossed you aren't very sore.

What's crazy is i can think of circumstances where i could accept cannibalism as a regrettable necessity.
That will never be true for rape.

I hope that was what you were going for?
