If Mr Attractive is well fed , likes to cuddle, and has mental Illness heā€™ll find a playmate easier than an Obese, impotent lunatic with good looks. Swipe left or right? ---

> [@Spice\_Weasel](#): > > minus one small quibble: getting up at 6:15am every fucking Saturday! For the past six months or so our oldest dog, Loki, wakes me up every night somewhere between 2:30 and 4:30 am to go outside and pee. Sheā€™s totally healthy, sheā€™s just old. I love it. I have to slip slides on, put her on a leash, and walk her to her favorite area. She pees, I pee, then we both go back to sleep. Sometimes we see rabbits, sometimes we see deer. Itā€™s so peaceful outside, even if itā€™s raining. I fall right back to sleep when I climb back into bed, and those ten minutes are sometimes the highlight of my day. ---

> [@purplehorseshoe](#): > > So just be friends ā€¦ ? I donā€™t see the point of pursuing a sexual relationship here. I would not even be friends with this person. Execute physicians? Yeesh. It reminds me of my Aunt having to break up with her massage therapist because she believes medical doctors have been killing patients and blaming it on COVID. The massage therapist still wanted to be friends and my Aunt was like, ā€œYou donā€™t understand. I will _never_ stop telling you how wrong you are.ā€ ---

MIL is elderly, though sheā€™s said sheā€™s tempted. The kid took an hour to go down for his nap, but slept for three hours, so we least we had some quiet for a while. She said being here reminds her of how hard parenting can be. šŸ˜€ ---

> [@Spice\_Weasel](#): > > I donā€™t think getting vaccinated prevents you from getting COVID. It prevents you from hospitalization and death. This. I got covid in the summer of '22 after having my vaccine and boosters. Know that I am immunocompromised. I was seriously sick, but I truly believe those vaccines are what kept me out of the hospital and above ground. I had a friend with health issues similar to mine. Despite being a nurse, she decided to not get the vaccine for political reasons. She is no longer in existence, due to covid. She basically drowned. She knew how to care for herself, she knew her chances, she took the risk and lost. I am so grateful for the vaccine. Ask yourself if this possible relationship is worth your life, @SuntanLotion . Just a suggestion. Iā€™d rather live. ---

Thats a moot point. I am not going to be in a relationship with him, even if he changed his mind. This isnā€™t a difference of political opinion, he doesnā€™t think Iā€™m worth risking getting sick for. He wonā€™t answer what his symptoms were, how he got better, why no one but him gets sick from us vaxxed people, why my ex didnā€™t.or listen to common sense. I like conspiracy theories but I doubt Gates/Fauci are trying to kill off the population. ---

This is a mini-rant on behalf of gas station workers, of whom I know several: It looks like the idiots who delight in placing [ā€œI did thatā€ stickers with Joe Biden pointing at the gas prices](https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2022/03/joe-biden-i-did-that-gas-pump-stickers-prices.html) are back.

My newly purchased jar of Fly by Jing has no zing! Szechuan chili crisp tastes flat how can that be? I check the best by date, itā€™s May 2023! Oh yeah Iā€™m taking it back, I thought I was getting a deal when I saw it was reduced from $15 to $11.
