That beaches in the US are getting saltier because of climate change, and that we actually are in the midst of a world war: the world itself is at war with us, and both sides are losing horribly.

Well, when the human side loses the earth will surely heal itself naturally.

As usual the deniers hid their heads in the proverbial salty sand while trolling anyone who believes climate change is real. I hate them. :x

I can't sleep on a waterbed as they lack back support in general. but I have the best of both worlds, a cooling mattress pad [like what hospitals use] that lets me cool the circulating water in it down to 55F. it enables me to sleep at night in the summer months. it was worth going into debt for a while.


I think my best bet for a while may be to get the hose pipe and spray myself down like Cameron Diaz did in Bad Teacher.. then the shock of my lazy villagers will stop and think they've just found the cure to welts and burns. :|

I don't think any hospital is going to offer me a solution for tooth extraction menopause.. and I happened to choose my childhood one which may have changed local references.
When it does happen I'll be like a chipmunk with ice in my cheeks and stumbling around the wards crying out for bedclothes.. hoping the clinical staff when they show up in their gown sense, will transfer my sedation over to a decent nurse.
In the pillow sense, I want a cooling ice pad, and don't stick the heating on in the middle of a dry autumn day.. cloggs up my throat and sinuses.

I've learned that I don't function to the best of my ability when interacting with highly pesimistic people, due to their misinterpretation of almost everything I say. Holy cow.

It is possible to be in the worst situation and still be happy.

^ Are you upskilling, NA?

Today, I found out what "snuff videos" were, along with a couple of examples.

:pale:

Seriously ... why?
