It'd be amazing to have my own little secret abandoned city haha

I think I may have kept this a secret, had my amazing secret enormous underground city to myself, and announced it's existence in my will.

Anthropology was also my first love, so I probably wouldn't have done that, but it's fun to think about lol

Had to Google that, but wtaf

Reminds me of the Buggre alle this Bible from Good Omens. Absolute favorite scene from the books and it didn't make it into the show.

Bulbs v switches is actually why it took me so long to get them to begin in. Having bulbs, inherently disposable things, full of tech seems... Less than ideal. But where I live, the electrical is rough. Like, we have 1 circuit, the light circuit. Everything else is messed up and turned off at the box, including all the 220s, except for the water heater. Run everything off power strips and have to turn everything off to cook. Lol. I don't want to mess with the electrical in this house. I want to move. Lol

In October of last year my mom came home from the ICU, now unable to get out of bed. I replaced all the bulbs in the house with smart bulbs and put the fans on a little smart plug thing. It made me really like the idea of home smart home features, but I'm not techy. They're just Alexa enabled for her to use with the fire stick, and I use google home on my phone for em.

Can you offer any advice for ones that don't require internet? Every time our power goes out (any time there's a storm), I have to go around and reset them while they flash at me like the worst night club

I have no idea. I've got some lidocaine viscous they gave me for the pain. I'm lucky enough to have medical, just not dental. But from experience, it helps temporarily numb the surface pain, but if it's in the root, or if you're pulling the tooth, it does not help.

My first thought when I saw the headline was "Can it help me pull this tooth without it hurting so badly?"

I mean, it'd have to go better than my attempts at learning Spanish. Lol. 5 new years resolutions in a row!

I wish I spoke German. That's exactly my type of humor. Lol

What is zangendeutsch? Google isn't giving me much in the way of English answers

My favorite way out of that situation was to tell them that the registers were automatically shut down at closing. Literally no way to ring up a purchase. It worked most of the time
