Bobcats are really odd looking to see just out randomly.
Your brain goes “oh another random stray cat” then it catches up that the thing is huge for a cat and its stance is strong / ready not “pstpstpstpst” meow meow

My youngest has peanut allergies and I still think this way. There must be something in the environment during gestation, because the older two can swim in swampland while eating dirt with 3 month old animal corpses in it and be just fine, it just happens with the latest batch of kids. And we live on peanut butter here
She used to be allergic to dog spit, but that went away, so I was thinking of micro dosing her with peanuts and working up until her body gets used to it. Sounds terrible, but it's a thing some allergists are warming up to.
Our histamine system was designed to fight parasites and it only causes allergies because it's got nothing else to do. Give your kid worms to teach the histamine system what it's supposed to do.

Years ago I had to relearn how to do basic math because of how it was taught to my daughter so I could help her. Here we are many years later and it is still the dumbest shit, now that she is older I showed her how we were taught and she said that is so much easier. Inferior system of fucking grouping using squares and lines...the fuck were they thinking.

Went through this many years ago with my daughter over handwriting and the new way to form letters. I’m convinced it was merely a way to drive a wedge between her and me; her teacher was right and her mom and I were wrong.

Wouldn't be surprised with how "they" are trying to destroy the family unit.

take mom to er, they think it is sciatica. go to cvs get meds. look at the bottle, see enclosed paper for instructions, 15 pills. go to mom's and read instructions, take 2 pills 3 times a day for 5 days. it is a very short drive to cvs, so go back ask pharmacist about it. he says, "that is what the prescription called for, someone can't do math"

Best part, if it's a controlled substance you'll need a new script.
When I still lived in SC, right before back surgery #3, I was taking 4 -15mg oxycodone's a day. That was the script. I picked it up one day and got home to see it looked really low. Counted them out and it was short like 50. I go back to CVS and they say they will do an inventory. I feel like an ass drug seeking junkie but it turned out they did short me.

Weird. I would assume whoever shorted you had stolen the extras. Maybe they were going to take the extras at the end of the shift.

scheduled for mri tomorrow.
when i had one done couple of years ago, the hospital "forgot" to submit anything to insurance to get approval. they didn't call or say anything about it not being approved, so a week after having it done got a letter saying it was declined. many hours on the phone with both ended up with the hospital eating almost the whole bill as was against their policy.
on the 5th of this month, hospital sent me estimate and other info for the mri. was looking it over, fine print, estimate not based on my insurance but just what my insurance company normally pays. call, get transferred 4 times, woman figures out it is still pending and they will call at 3:30 if needs to rescheduled.

Summer movie trailers... More Spiderman. I grew up with Spiderman. Many here can identify with the original Stan Lee character. Teenage, brilliant, loss, lonely, powerful, free yet confined.
What's coming up seems to be a hot mess of ensemble cast and more "expansion" of the Marvel Universe.
Spiderman works because he is alone in a contracted universe with personal stakes and personal loss and a profound sense of humanity. The first film's message "With great power comes great responsibility" pretty much sums him up. Victory or tragedy determined by choice/responsibility.
WHY blow his universe UP? Condense it down to Peter and characters. The films sometimes get it right SOME of the time (the Doc Ock/Peter relationship). But (as Kahn from Star Trek II would say, "they keep missing the target.")
God-damn it that I have to hope for another life for my boyhood Spiderman. Instead, the film will just be a marketing launch point for Marvel stories and cross-characters and expanded stories/universes, etc.
Keep Peter as his simple (and so complicated) self. This looks like a hot mess:
PS-- does this bring tears to anyone else (non-sequitur, but not completely): (especially with its "deep reference" to their first meeting/dinner together-- Peter Parker, brilliant but lazy. "I'll try to do better."
PLEASE get Spidey right just once...
and, of course, it's okay to keep the super-hot female admirers that Peter will never have or know!
