Eventually ... if he keeps eating like that
In this current universe and timeline ... the plane crashes and they all survive.
The universe is playing with us like a cat with a trapped mouse.
Such a beautiful study ... it brought a tear to me eye
History is waiting for the discounted used DVD release
INCOMING!!!!!
Spend time outdoors ... go camping or sleep outside for a night or two ... just unplug and be alone for a few hours or a few days. It does wonders to your mental health if you just remove yourself from everything and everyone once in a while.
Twice a day and don't go at it like an animal or too harshly .... it's a pain and I don't particularly enjoy it but at the same time, I have many, many friends who never took care of their teeth and now in their 40s and 50s either have several missing teeth or are dealing with cavities or gum disease so bad that they will lose their perfectly healthy teeth in a few years.
Seeing what happens to your teeth and mouth if you don't take care of them is what motivates me every day to take care of mine.
I also think of it this way .... would you rather have the small inconvenience every morning and night of flossing ... or would you rather not do that every day and just have one terrible and painful dental visit every two / three years to remove another tooth and have your dentist tell you that you're going to lose more in a few years.
They're just trolling at this point ..... lol .... this is what America wanted
Get ready for the ride.
My 'sheath' would appreciate that and so do I ..... unfortunately, she would also likely bludgeon me with a sword if she saw this conversation.
Sounds like your average president
This worries me ... but all the same, I wish you well and hope for the best for you. You are a great personality and a person who brings joy to others without asking anything in return. Please stay well and let us all know how you are doing when you return.
All my love to you and your family.
Just a friendly reminder of the November 11 Remembrance Day ceremonies.
Here's a photo of James Doohan, 22nd Field Battery, 13th Field Regiment RCA of the Canadian 3rd Infantry Division. He was part of the famous D-Day landings of June 1944.

Don't know how you all feel about Gene Roddenberry who kick started the whole Trek franchise and everything that came after it.
He is definitely someone that has affected a lot of lives beyond the work that he did and the life that he led.
For all his shortcomings, he is someone I look up to that has made humanity look at itself in the mirror and seriously think about what we all see in each other through all the shows and characters that he helped to create.
... btw ... this post is another Trek thing where in chatting with all you led me down to a page that noted that today is the memorial of Roddenberry's passing in 1991.
I thought I should take the responsibility to post this and remind everyone about what today is.
National Day For Truth And Reconciliation
Both my parents are survivors of the residential school era and my family have had to live with this horror all our lives ... whether we knew it or not.
For me the day is not to shame anyone or lay blame on those around me.
But rather to let everyone know about this history and never allow anything like it to ever happen again.
In The Original Series in the 60s, people had no idea what the future would look like or what technology would look like. In one of the early episodes, they had a paper print out machine on the bridge that looked like a fax machine, which was considered futuristic in the 1960s.
Like the example of the Enterprise fax machine, what technology or system do you think are we displaying in the current Star Trek shows that will show how dated we will become in the future?
I didn't see it posted so I thought I should.
I'm Indigenous, full blooded Ojibway/Cree from northern Ontario. Both my parents survived the residential school system in the 50s and I attended the last vestiges of Christianized schooling when I was growing up. We saw a lot of discrimination against us in my family and we were always made to feel less than every other Canadian we ever knew.
Even with all that ..... my dad always enjoyed celebrating this holiday because he just thought it was fun and a good time to celebrate with family and friends. Maybe he just didn't know but whenever this time of year comes around, all I can think of is how much he enjoyed just having a bit of fun today in the middle of summer.
In my own experience, I've travelled the world to 34 countries so I got see and compare how our country compares to the rest of the world. With all its shortcomings and blemishes .... this is still a great country and a prime example of decent democracy. It isn't perfect and it is very problematic and unequal in many ways ... but its on the top of the pile of mostly or more democratic places on the planet. I may be wrong on that but that is just my opinion.
So with all that said .... to all my Native, non-Native, nation born, immigrant, brown, white, black, and every shade in between ....
Happy Canada Day to all of you.
We also have a Paris in Ontario in Canada .... nice place next to the water and it even has the Eiffel Tower (painted as a mural on a storefront)
