I always heard they were larger and ate a specific diet of plants that are now extinct, and so have adapted to only eating low nutrition bamboo and it’s caused them to barely be able to reproduce.

friendzone potion, you give it to someone crushing on you or hates you to turn them around. Some might argue showing up with beer / weed is a friendzone potion.

I was considering this a few weeks ago but am hesitant that it will turn the phone’s battery into a spicy pillow. Probably best to ensure it’s a device with a removable battery or the ability to prevent the battery fully charging

I am really stuck in the final boss and this game the real boss is the camera controls and mushy platforming

To be fair a lot of college graduates learn very little.

Khan Academy is also free and amazing. It’s possible with free YouTube and KA to learn nearly any subject you desire.

Yuuup some really low taxes and also a lot of money gets turned into fighter jets and missiles which are of limited use in a structure fire. If they asked me I’d shave off a cheeky 5% of our defense budget and turn it into emergency response but they don’t ask

Some are, for sure, but not all.

I know it’s corny, but thank you for your service. You know we still need your help to keep the fire service a welcoming place for new volunteers. Maybe you could sign back up at your new local in a more limited capacity? The more of us there are the better for everyone.

I’ve never met firefighter who carries a taser. We’ve got our hands full with crowbars, axes, ladders, hose, radio, thermal imaging camera, and air monitors. I legit don’t know where I’d even store a taser.

Maybe it’s fire police who are carrying tasers?

Every volunteer fire/EMS organization in the USA is struggling to keep the trucks filled. Most stations in the country are one or two volunteers away from just shutting down entirely.

If you can show up, please volunteer! My station desperately needs not just firefighters - these roles at my station are barely covered by a few overworked volunteers:

• accountants to track gear and vehicle deprecation and keep our books
• grant writers to get us new equipment
• social media people to spread the word
• photographers to tell a story at the fire scene
• cooks to help us with social events and build community
• mechanics to work on the apparatus
• drivers to drive the apparatus (even just back and forth to mechanic shops takes a lot of time)
• detailed people to inventory equipment / replacement schedules
• artists to make cool banners for community events
• people to manage renting out the building to the community to help pay for the station upkeep
• IT folks to help fix station Internet / manage digital records / select vendors / deal with station computers and email accounts
• Web developers to make and manage our website
• leadership to sit on the board and direct the organization
• finance people to help manage investments

Most fire companies would be thrilled to have someone show up and join as a member with the goal of just doing one or more of these roles. We don’t just need firefighters, we need a whole host of other things to keep the organization healthy and stable. We’ve seen what happens when these roles are neglected: we lose memberhip and when we lose membership we lose the bench needed to keep the trucks filled and ready to respond.

(I will say, if you do try to respond and find the people at the station are grumpy, generally it’s because they’re extremely overworked and lash out because of it. Don’t let them push you away, you are doing this for your community, not for someone at the station)

I’ve seen this exact same text written to look like a real comment on three different platforms now…

when the pedo sex crime conspiracy theorists finally are proven right… the new conspiracy theory is that it was all just a hoax and there’s no deep state or pedo trafficking rings despite mounting evidence

mighty convenient

I’m a fire fighter so I’m used to phone alarms, but this one was a different tone so I was like “holy shit IS THIS THE BIG ONE?” narrator “it was in fact not the big one”
