“I was waiting in line to buy bread when suddenly and without any prior warning seven to eight missiles fell,” an eyewitness, Mohammad Ibrahim, told CNN.
“There were seven to eight huge holes in the ground, full of killed people, body parts all over the place,” he said. “It felt like the end of the world.”
Ok, seriously, does ANYONE know anything about parakeets? I'm sitting in someone's kitchen with a yelling parakeet, and I have to change his water dish, and he's already bitten me (damn, that hurts). This bird hates me on sight! Does anyone know enough about parakeets to tell me how to avoid getting bit?
@dancinyogi he's a tiny critter seoarated from his 'flock' and alone (except for this huge stranger with hands coming at him) frightened out of his wits and defending himself the only way he knows how. Jokes about harming him are SICK.
I'm so tired of teenagers being "the chosen ones" in fiction. please, let a middle-aged woman save the universe! she's seen some shit and dealt with it. she's tired of it all. she doesn't give a fuck. she's angry. she will get this shit done.
@CatDragon@reginasbread they don't save the world but they do solve crimes: The Thursday Murder Club (book series) is led by a retired spy who is an awesome woman. And the book Killers of a Certain Age is an all-woman gang of retired assassins on a revenge mission. 10/10 would recommend both.
I genuinely sometimes worry I have too many books but I have just read that Edward Gorey amassed a collection of about 25000 books and still professed that "There's no such thing as too many books" so I have a way to go 📚☺️📚
When I finally realized that feedback from my boss at a “check in” was just them reverse engineering the right compliments or criticisms of me to justify giving me the same raise (or, more likely, lack thereof) they would have anyway, it was then that I should’ve known I was having some issues with indirect communication. Alas, it took another year for me to finally realize I was autistic. Far too austistic to be middle managed.
