One of them isn't like the other.
It's been four weeks since Bea died and I'm so tired but I'm afraid when I go to bed I'll just cry more. It feels like all the sense memories--the sound of her purr, the texture of the fur behind her ears, the precise look of her cat smile when she lay on my chest in the mornings--are already starting to slowly slip away, and it just kills me.
@idzie Sending some compassion, it hurts like hell when they go :(

My hands are such a mess this winter, incredibly dry and chapped.

@idzie Oh! We have a club?

Nouvelle vidéo de l'homme abattu de sang froid par 7 flics !
Il y a 25 jours il a fait pipi sans relever la lunette des toilettes, et il y a 3 mois il avait fait mine de tenir la porte à quelqu'un, mais au final la personne avançait trop lentement et donc il savait plus s'il devait tenir la porte ou non et l'avait lâchée, juste au moment où la personne arrivait.
Des actions qui posent question. Peut-être méritait-il…
The forestry industry is not as great a financial contributor, or employer, as is often claimed by its supporters.

I do dearly love some of the music +-5 years from when I first got laid, in 1977.
I allow that it might be over-represented in my library.
But I love *so* much more music than just that stretch. And I wanted -- dude, he was bonin' my mom -- to feel that I was part of the most.
I wasn't. I am not.
I'm one of the not-all.

I mean, most of the music I love was before I was born. 1955 to 1975, Miles, Coltrane, Mingus, Monk, Beatles, Stones, Bill Withers, Jazz Fusion, Bluegrass, Soul, Funk... so its definitely not right. I'm not even that big a fan of 90s music. and I love Jazz continuing through to now, but man pop music stopped being good in about 1990 and never recovered. data analysis shows thats when instruments began a crash, and vocals became the bulk of pop music. And fine but its not for me.
USA is blatantly working to break-up Canada.
Not only is the Trump administration in talks with Alberta separatists, they’re actively working to destabilize my country.

" #RobertaTarnove was horrified last week when she learned that a man protesting #ICE was shot and killed in #Minneapolis. And it wasn’t just because someone was dead.
The 65-year-old #Jewish resident of #LosAngeles was also distressed that federal officials said the agents were justified in shooting #AlexPretti because they believed he was armed. #Pretti, 37, was a licensed #gunowner in a state where carrying a #gun openly is legal.
“I’m very sad. He certainly had every right to carry a gun,” Tarnove said.
The situation hit home for Tarnove because she, too, owns guns and has a permit allowing her to carry concealed #firearms.
“As a Jewish person whose Sunday school teachers were mostly #Holocaust survivors, there was something about #DonaldTrump’s presidential run that just hit me hard,” she said. “The #dogwhistles and things just sounded alarm bells in my head, and so I think I need to get a gun..."
