As an American, while I am so incredibly bitter about what is going on with my own country, I think it pains me even more to think about how Brexit has affected Great Britain. I feel like we, at least, have a chance of clawing our way back to sanity some day, but the changes Brexit made. . that's so tough. I wish their youth all the luck, they have a tough road ahead of them.

Edit: so either my app is showing comment threads oddly, or he edited his comment, making my reply completely nonsensical. Originally, he said the video was scammy bullshit, and that he knew it for "two simple reasons." His 1st was that no one living like that would actually jump on a horse from the rear, and the second was that no one ever sleeps over animals because they'd die of methane poisoning. I guess he couldn't argue my reply so just changed his narrative instead.
End edit.
Where is the Lemmy version of /r/confidentlyincorrect? People have kept livestock on the first floor of their homes for thousands of years; the heat from the animals helped to keep them warm, and it kept the livestock safe from thieves. And no one sleeping above livestock is going to die of cow farts. Bless your heart.

Aww, thanks. It's ok, though. I'm getting a lot better at figuring out how not to kill my plants now and just get sad for a little while when one dies. Mostly. Lol
But it's also hard for someone with depression, because you will kill things while you learn, and that can make you feel even more worthless and useless.
THAT SAID. If you try it and actually discover you have an interest in it, it's a lot easier to get past the, "Fuck, I killed another one!" and slide into, "How do I not fucking kill another one?!"

Hey, thanks for the info! I didn't have the mental energy to hit up Wikipedia and fall down that rabbit hole to find it myself last night.
This has never been term meant just for children, where did you even get that from?
... And at the very end, as he's being taken out of the store (by a remarkably level-headed and seemingly quite caring dude) - "hey man can I get a soda?" The fuck is wrong with these people
This badass-looking fellow immediately made me think of Anubis/jackal hieroglyphics. Now I'm wondering if there is a connection.
"oops I dropped it in the toilet" situation (I'm still not sure how people manage that).
Have a sweater or a jacket on, put the phone in your pocket. Do your duty, turn just a little too fast when going to flush, and your phone flies out of your pocket and arcs right into your doody.

CLOSE YOUR DOORS. Closed doors give you a much better chance of survival if your house catches on fire.
Oil of Olay has an in-shower body lotion/body conditioner that works better than any regular lotion I have ever used. And I've tried them all. You shower normally, rinse, and what I do is turn off the shower and just use my hands to swipe water off myself so I can get better coverage with the lotion. Then I start from my head and work my way down with the lotion. (Doing it this way saves on product too). When I'm done, turn the water back on and rinse off. The stuff is magical. I have to be careful of things I put on my skin due to some sensitivity issues, and I have zero problems with this. It's stupid expensive and nearly impossible to find in stores anymore so I have to get it online, but it's worth it. After a week of not using it, my skin is a flakey, itchy mess.
They have a version with lavendar and retinol in it now as well, but I haven't tried that one. I just use the regular one.
I have never seen a senior housing facility that wasn't a bleak, horrific nightmare. They may look nice on the outside, but they are usually the last place you want to live in your old age. Out of all of the things boomers get, this one isn't a great one.
