I lost my girl yesterday to kidney failure. The first 24 hours are the hardest. So many missed routines and the constant reminders everywhere. All we can do is give them the best life during the time they have. Stay strong, the time spent together is worth the pain of the loss 100x over.
Ironically, that very much won the battle.
Slang has always been shorthand for longer words or phrases, but I didn’t realize rizz fit that category.
Even things like “speak of the devil” were once longer phrases. It’s a natural pattern in language that common sayings are shortened over time. Really fascinating just how common it is.
Wait… rizz is short for charisma?? 🤯
Huh, TIL

When snails copulate, two penises enter two vaginal tracts. Both snails in a pairing transfer sperm, but whichever snail got in the best shot with the dart has a better chance of ultimately fertilizing eggs.
First they stab eachother. The better the stab, the more effective the stabber’s sperm will be. Then they exchange fluids. Then they settle down, buy a minivan, and waste away in an office until they die.
I prefer face to face communication, speaking in code and whispering in eachother’s ears so nobody else can hear.
If you enjoy it, it’s a good hobby.

Using 7 chars to represent 8. Now that’s efficiency!
Do you, though? Pi starts 3.141592, but 7/22 starts 3.142857, already wrong by the 4th digit.
That’s not the bet. It’s a frivolous lawsuit with no chance at succeeding.
They’re either betting that defending it would cost more than $25M, that a bribe will bring them favor, or, more likely, accepting that the cost of doing business in Mein Dönald’s America is to periodically pay large baseless “fines” at the whim of a dementia patient.
It’s not a legal issue. They’d just shut down any accounts doing this. They already detect and shut down account sharing and this is just a variant of that. No law or government intervention necessary.
Sling couldn’t have asked for a better marketing campaign
It’s certainly breaking TOS, so the country you’re in doesn’t matter.
