My partner and I fit in this range. We don’t have kids, but there is the offhand occasion where we need to print something so we just do it at work.
And if worst comes to worst, we have a shitty old cheap Canon that works if you turn off all the lights, light certain candles, and draw a printer-gram on the floor while we hold hands in the center of the room while saying a quiet prayer under our breath.
Edit: fixed the pun but too late now.
Yeah they were way off with Tylenol.
Abbott hates Houston…he loves that this is happening. No coercion needed, trust me. He’s just as evil as Trump, Miller, etc.
Every election he tried to put in new measures to make it more difficult to vote in the more populated counties because he knows it’s only a matter of time before the folks in the cities boot him and his asshole friends.
They’re here, in Houston at least. Red state but the big cities are blue. The people in Houston have no love for this shit.

U.S.-born Houston teen says ICE agents beat him and his father during early-morning stop
And just 1 example showing how we really feel about it:
I’m not familiar enough with it with respect to images I guess, so I didn’t know. But thanks for the tip, I’ll start playing around with it :)
Can someone with talent remake this gif by replacing the word “flames” with “leopards”?

That’s the 12 days: Dec 25 - Jan 6.
Jan 6 is All King’s Day, when the 3 Kings visited Jesus…aka Epiphany…aka the first day of Mardi Gras season.
I’m not religious, I’m just from a culture where Mardi Gras is very important. And imo, we should all celebrate a day for no other reason than to eat, drink, and be merry :)
Edit: Holy shit, just realized I’m replying to the wrong comment lol
That’s impressive as hell! You should be proud!
I’m very sorry for your loss, but that’s a really great accomplishment. I’m glad you 2 were able to find each other and that you were able to learn from your experience with him. All the best <3
Actually it’s fine. This was me until I finally met the person who I decided I felt comfortable being intimate with.
I was raised religious but by that time I wasn’t, but that shame and guilt are still legit.
Anyway, it’s been decades since and we’re still together. I have no regrets.
My first Covid vaccines did this, but I have contact dermatitis and my skin reacts to almost anything, including winter sweaters.
I’m not a doctor and not giving medical advice, but for me this is not necessarily uncommon. That doesn’t mean the same for you, obviously.
I wish we could use a “regular” app like Waze and start reporting “icy weather” as code for ICE. I mean we can, but idk how to make it a thing. Kinda how they were using “winter boots” as code on TikTok for ICE to get around the censors.
fwiw when we got a puppy, the vet instructed us to do just this with our cat who had already been with us for a few years. Worked like a charm.
Don’t threaten me with a good time.
It was a mini-series based on a novel by Ken Follett, but ‘The Pillars of the Earth’. It starred Eddie Redmayne.
Movie - Episode IV/A New Hope (if I had to pick a 2nd/3rd, in no order: Episode 3 and Rogue One)
Show - Andor
Novel - oooh this is tough! The Rogue One prequel ‘Catalyst’ was fantastic, as was the Rogie One novel. ‘Lost Stars’ was another good one set in the OT timeline. There’s also Rebel Rising, about Jyn Erso’s time with Saw Guerra, and Leia: Princess of Alderaan about teenage Leia a few years before ANH showing how she gets involved with the Rebellion. And of course the OG Zahn Trilogy plus the new ones that have come out.
I did read Alphabet Squadron and thought they were good.
Game: Old school Rebellion (PC), the Jedi Knight series, of course KOTOR, Galaxies MMORPG, Galactic Battlegrounds, and I’m getting into Battlefront 2 again. I’m about to start Outlaws so we’ll see how that goes. Oh and Jedi Fallen Order, but I haven’t played Survivor yet.
Star Wars and history - in particular how Lucas had aspects of Nazi Germany and the Vietnam War because he was an anthropology student and knew that empires most often fell from within.
So yeah I’m still on a big Andor high right now, waiting for some novels and other books to drop after that.
Other books I can recommend:
The History and Politics of Star Wars - Death Stars and Democracy (the author is a World War I historian)
Star Wars: Battles that Changed the Galaxy
Star Wars Propaganda: A History of Persuasive Art in the Galaxy
Goddamn this is so fucking true. Ugh.
And nothing of value was lost.
Aahahaha was supposed to be printer-gram but I have no idea what happened. Pun utterly ruined!
