Fake news! Toilet isn’t gold.

Are the K’s picnic tables?

Edit:

We did have wireless handsets back in the day…

The cold is also bad for batteries, so if you’ve been out in the winter for a while, it’ll help warm your phone up.

Well, butter my buns and call me a biscuit…

Side note: does anyone else find it weird that emphatic “too” has two o’s but emphatic “so” does not?

It’s hard to tell whether this is whether this is real or not… I’m going to lean “not” due to the low amount of misused capitals, and staying on topic.

Apparently!

You can pry my Twist-Erase from my cold dead arthritic hands.

Since I switched to using 0.9 mm, I almost never break a lead unless I drop it onto a hard floor; it even holds up to some aggressive tapping. Consequently, I hardly ever have to refill. I also never worry about the point snapping or stabbing when tossed loose into a bag, or keeping a sharpener on hand.

Just my #2 cents.

We open the windows when the temperature dips, especially at night. If the wind is low or dead, we will use a fan to push the hot air out of one window so cool air gets pulled in though the rest of them.

We have a portable AC in the main room and a window AC in the bedroom for when it gets too hot during the day, or doesn’t dip at night.

If you live in a dry climate, a swamp cooler could work.

What do you mean by slow? Time till symptoms? time till death? Hours? Days? Weeks?

Raw castor beans contain ricin its a cool looking plant that gets big. My neighbor grew on once accidentally.

symptoms commonly begin within two to four hours, but may be delayed by up to 36 hours.

Unless treated, death can be expected to occur within 3–5 days; however, in most cases a full recovery can be made.

Actually a lot of beans are toxic when raw, but not deadly. Raw lima beans are special though; they contain something that the human body breaks down into cyanide. No clue how long that takes or how many it would take to cause harm.

Heavy metals (mercury, arsenic, cadmium, lead) are known for building up over time with many exposures. Think mad hatter syndrome, etc. but exposures can also be acute if high enough. IIRC acute arsenic poisoning makes you vomit and diarrhea until you die of dehydration after days or weeks.

This is your annual reminder that Santa’s steeds as classically depicted are all Ladies. Male Caribou shed their antlers before Christmas. That’s right! The sleigh runs on girl power! Red One even paid homage to this fun fact this year.
