  • Drive over child with therapy rule

  • Someone I know was working with a person who has a therapy dog. Apparently the dog is trained to understand when they become overwhelmed and just sit on them. It sounds like it has a similar mechanism to these techniques.

  • Our house is about 150 years old and we dug down to the dirt floor in one of the downstairs rooms. We found suspicious white bits, and had to send a sample off. Luckily it came back clear. It was unlikely anyway, as asbestos wasn't in widespread use here in the 19th century.

    However, we do have corrugated asbestos roofing on our "scullery" but it's in one piece so can be left until we renovate that part, then disposed of safely. It's pretty common to find it on sheds and outbuildings here.

  • What are yall going as for Halloween this year?

    Jump

  • I have everything I need for a Nadja of Antipaxos costume, but I don't think we're going anywhere.

  • Nap

  • My girl cat slept on top of me all night. I'm now hurting from not being able to change position while sleeping. (I guess I could have moved, but she's too sweet to disturb)

  • The devil will walk on earth

  • Oh, you don't like bonfire night? Fireworks too loud? /s

    Edit: Seriously, good luck to you guys - I'll be watching nervously from the UK (where our election was on 4th July.)

  • How many pieces of toilet paper do you use to wipe after peeing?

    Jump

  • Three shares, folded in half, then in half again. Maybe two squares if it's quilted.

  • What's an obsolete or incredibly obscure word you think people should know?

    Jump

  • Stop trying to make fetch happen

  • As a Brit. I see nothing wrong here

    Jump

  • Yeah, I guess so. It's probably so they put lower overall salt on the packaging.

  • Appalachian-approved

  • Michael Hobbs reading the bit where JD questions his sexuality cracks me up.

  • Not only "spices" but paprika and white pepper too!

  • What small tiny app have you found that not many people know about

    Jump

  • I've been using Daylio for years.

    It's designed to track moods and the activities associated with them, but it's adaptable, so I use it to track my headaches. It's very easy to use and it doesn't feel onerous to record the information.

  • Man I love those books. Only time I've finished a series and gone straight back to the beginning again.

  • It's starting to get cold here, which means more cat cuddles!

  • Well hello!

    Love that the "eyeliner flick" is on the opposite side.

  • Be kind to the old fellows

    Jump

  • She sounds wonderful, I'm so happy she found a home with you!

    I would always adopt an adult rather than a kitten. We've had a kitten and he was hard work!

    Our orange cat was 2 when we had him from the shelter. He was found on the street with cat flu. They treated this, but he was still very skinny when we adopted him, with rough fur and cracked paw pads.

    We've had him just over a year and he gained a lot of weight at first, but now he trusts that there's always going to be dinner for him. His fur is glossy and bright, and his paws are healthy. He's incredibly loving, even with children, and loves sitting near us when we're working.

    I'm glad we got him. Even our other cat (also adopted, but from a friend) is slowly warming to him!

  • What is something people you encounter at your job say that makes you want to scream? (Job, person & quote)

  • When I worked in retail, I had this wanker of a middle manager who would ask how I was getting on, and when I said fine, he'd always say "It's not rocket science, is it?"

    He was mid twenties and only a few years older than me. He used to call female employees "babe".

    One time I watched him get a withering telling off from a customer. The customer wasn't in the right, but it felt like a little bit of retribution for all us "babes".
