Pro tip: It’s still a puzzle if you take it apart and put it back together in the right order. Just a different type of puzzle lol.

(Taking the stickers off and rearranging them is still cheating though).

Let me worry about my own dogs, yeah? We do walk with a harness, putting on shoes (me) and collars (dogs) before we go out has been a literal routine for years, and they do always wear their collars when they’re new and in training for exactly the reasons you all are harping about. We even do emergency drills for things like tornado warnings where I say “danger, danger” and they know to head to the basement (where I keep backup collars, ID tags, and vet records).

For fuck’s sake, it’s a cute dog meme and y’all are pouncing on one trivial line in the caption like I’m the worst animal abuser in the world for wanting my dogs to be comfortable around the house. There are too many small-chance-of-that-ever-happening “what ifs” to worry about that I’m not going to live my life in a safety bubble. The yard is fenced, we’re in suburbia, they’re both chipped, they’re both trained, and we’re doing just fine.

Geesh, the people around here who always have to be right is staggering and extremely off-putting.

Lots of people. We’re a “no shoes, no collar” house.

Both dogs are trained to not bolt out the door when it opens, and I’ve got a fenced yard.

I love it!

loudly comparing every restaurant in Italy to Olive Garden is a hell of a Sophia style troll move.

It so is 😂

Not sure of the actual name, but they’re like wire nuts but crimped instead of twist. I don’t think there’s a non-destructive way to undo them but you may be able to rip the wires out and use a regular wire nut to splice them back. If not, try cutting them as far inside as you can and replacing with another crimp connector or use a screw type wire nut.

(best dead-eyed stare I could find)

At least they waited until Wesley left the ship :shrug:

I never really got the humor there, lol, but I’m lamenting the loss of 80s TV because I had a lot of good Golden Girls posts since I’m finally watching it for the first time.

I’d be tempted to dive down and see if I can get her running again. If I do, I’ll sell tickets off this crazy rock.

My (limited) understanding is that there’s no straightforward way to do that at least in Lemmy.

I’ve been watching The Golden Girls and would imagine saying that would immediately earn you a Sicilian vendetta or at least Sophia putting a curse on you.

You mean the images going down fairly regularly?

My Minimal Phone has two physical SIM slots, though that’s not exactly a mass market device nor suitable for everyone lol.

These are all 90s cartoons, so if you can find them:

• Batman: The Animated Series (the one with Mark Hamill as the Joker)
• Animaniacs
• Tiny Toon Adventures
• Chip n’ Dale’s Rescue Rangers
• Pinky and the Brain Saw you have that one already

Gas Station, Strip Mall, and Bar, Grill, Gaming House and Holosuite Arcade.

Come to Quarks. Quarks is fun. Come right now, don’t walk, run!

I always hate the “[Person]'s Law” types of legislation. They’re well-intentioned, sure, but they’re also always, always rushed, knee-jerk overreactions that come out all hamfisted. If they want to legislate e-bikes, fine, but take the time to do it right.

It was cheaper to drive 50 miles to another town to visit with relatives in person than pay for long distance charges for a phone call.

I can’t even afford to bid on Grudge’s cat collar lol.
