Just here for the facts
Those are called split ends. If you have a lot of them, it’s best to get a trim (just enough to snip off the split ends) and then try to figure out what is causing them.
You can’t repair them. You can only get rid of them and then avoid them. Or keep getting maintenance trims.
With split ends trimming = longer hair over time.
Source: I had them so bad for years that my hair would break off and not get any longer looking. For me, it was too much heat (hair dryer and curling iron every day)
I’m using mint in fluffy warm house socks. In my defense, I’m using Mint because I may have to install a super user-friendly linux on the old computers of two boomer family members who are using win 11 and macOS respectively.
I need to make sure I know it really well and can do whatever tech support I need to do. And lock it down for them.
But I’m also digging it. Especially since it’s not Weyland, I’ve been able to lock all the inputs and still watch movies
Edit: to protect from my cat, who just knocked my phone out of my hand and butt submitted this before I was ready. Now to clean my screen
I’m old enough to remember when this was a thing. TV didn’t have a remote, 3 main channels. That era.
The thing that hasn’t changed is people wanting to talk about their favorite media. What has is the arena. I don’t know irl people watching what I watch. So I end up talking with other fans on Discord or watching youtubers geek out like I am.
The trick is not falling for parasocial relationships with these people gathered around the virtual water cooler.

From context and references to “Donald”, “with Bannon”, “Ask Putin”, and “Donnie Tee” - I’m guessing “Donnie Dee” also refers to the current President.
Don’t know if Dee is a typo or a dick joke.
Pence was the vice president of the first term.
I learned in both because while automatics were the norm, my parents never wanted me stranded in case a manual was my only option. So I learned in an older cute as hell red paint faded it was almost pink Jeep pick up truck with no tailgate.
Looking at photos online, I think it was maybe a 60s era Willie or a Gladiator from the 70s. It was pretty old, but not a classic, when I drove it.
I looked it up. It’s an independent surreal horror rpg. I’m guessing it’s got a lot of fanart that is nsfw

Maybe you, but definitely not me.
Ianal, I really hope there is some sort of class action that can be done to force companies to pass that back to consumers.
It should be easy enough to pass through to all the electronic pay methods.
Or force markup items to all be put on massive sale until an equal amount has been sold to make up the sales at markup.
There are no perfect solutions, some people will still make out like bandits.
But jfc, just releasing billions to these companies will only benefit the C-Level and maybe some shareholders, the people already benefiting, not the ones feeling the pain.
Does the algae taste like spiralina? Because if it still tastes like an aquarium that needs cleaning smells, it will be incredibly difficult for some of us to eat without gagging.
And I’m not a particularly picky eater.
Mine in Brandi and she has property that people want to buy and Republicans want her to fill out surveys
I only know Shinjuku from anime/manga. When a certain arc gets animated, I expect it’ll be wild for a while. If the hype stays strong anyway.
There’s a movie called Shallow Grave. Ewan McGregor’s character is on the phone at work at a newspaper. We hear his side of the conversation:
Was there a pet in the house? Yeah, a pet. You know, like a dog or a budgie or a gerbil or something? What I need here is “PC Plod saves Harry the Hamster from house of horror”. All right. Well, that’s a pity. You see, no pets - no human angle.
This line has lived rent free in my head for almost 30 years. “All right. Well, that’s a pity. You see, no pets - no human angle.”
Some people work together well. My husband and I have been married over 25 years, the last 20 years we’ve worked closely together.
It’s hasn’t been perfect 100% of the time, but I wouldn’t change a thing.
You just have to figure out conflict resolution AND how to respect when one of you needs downtime (we are both mostly introverts that need to recharge sometimes)
Virgina worked at MAL at age 17 before Maxwell scouted her to “work” for Jeff. Maybe that’s what’s he’s talking about. Jeff stole a perfectly good underage worker handing out towels.
I definitely have friends like this. I have some family like this. We are good no matter how much time between communications.
I also have some family that put zero effort in and maybe they’d show up if I needed them. But given that after one text, they haven’t checked in at all after my Dad died unexpectedly 7 months ago…
They still have each other and both parents. I’m not going to be the one comforting them.
So I’m not actually sure they’d show up even if I asked.
Luckily, I have people who have checked in on me without me having to reach out first.
As someone who has link tracking in our business, yes, some of the stuff after the ? isn’t nefarious tracking, like the utm mentioned above.
All the “list-unsubscribe” options you may have noticed starting about a year ago, are actually required to be there for any company that sends out any kind of email newsletter over a certain threshold. (Lists around 5k or more)
If the unsubscribe links aren’t there, with the required url-encoded parameters (along with some other requirements with DNS) the email will not be delivered to any of the majors (google, yahoo/aol, hotmail, big ISPs) and we get blocked.
The unsubscribe parameters are being tracked, yes, but we have to have them so we can unsubscribe you “in one click” We are not allowed to require you to sign in to unsubscribe you. (Not that we ever did that, but now there must be a one-click option.)
(We used to just be two clicks to unsubscribe off an encoded link. Click -> this you? If yes, click -> you are now unsubscribed. Or sign-in and manage subscriptions without an encoded link.)
Again, the point is that not all url encoded tracking is nefarious. Some of it is now required to try and minimize spam and nefarious emails.

I can taste some of them, especially red and blue artificial food dyes. I’d love to see them replaced because I look like a weirdo eating around the m&ms I don’t like.
Think of it this way though, she reduced Bezos net worth by more than any taxes, government, or humanitarian aid did. Searches say by about 25% at the time.
She reduced the worth of one billionaire and is attempting to funnel as much of that as she can into humanitarian and charitable efforts.
If she burned it, it would help no one. If she gave it all to governments, 99.99% would fund weapons, war, and waste, maybe 0.01% towards social programs.
She’s not buying yachts or islands. She’s doing what we as normal people would hope we would do if we had obscene amounts of money dumped in our laps.
The alternative is her ex-husband would still have it and he’d spend $45M on a party. And Trevor Project would have none of it.
On a side note, slightly related, I’m wondering what happens when Elmo kicks it and all his relatives’, baby mama’s, and children’s lawyers come out of the woodwork to contest and divvy up that fortune.
