Hey, Sideways Stories From Wayside School is great! And weird, but good weird. Twilight was the first thing I thought of when the COVID toilet paper crisis hit.
Maybe more like, sat up and stuck its head down into the vase, which tipped, startling the cat, who pulled back, lifting the vase, and either thrashed its head or jumped down, either way the body of the vase broke away. It looks like it got lucky and there's a relatively straight break line, but you wouldn't want to pull in case you thrust a jagged shard into a jugular or something. They seem to be at the vet where they'll administer enough anesthetic to either ease it off or break it away, then clean/stitch any cuts and dose it with antibiotics. If you couldn't get to a vet, a couple people could probably wrap it in a towel and hold it still enough to break the vase away but it's risky.
You probably already have soft hats but maybe a longer wrap like some religious women use to cover their hair would give you the drape to feel more like your long hair, while being softer than a wig base.
Some permanently bald people decorate their scalp with tattoos but you might want to try kids' washable markers just to see how you feel about drawing flowers or whatever before you go as far as a Sharpie, much less a tattoo.
For your carrot problem, get the really fat bulk carrots, which (at my grocery store anyway) are not woody and very tasty. Peel it as usual, noticing you only have to peel one or two. You're now perfectly set for your first cucumber solution, cutting it in half lengthwise, or maybe even quarters because carrots are a firmer bite. Personally I start cutting off the fat end and work towards the tip, because you have more to grip for better control on the harder slices, and if your last ones are a little thicker they're also small.
I wonder how many new curling stones need to be made each year. I don't imagine they wear down too quickly, just sliding on ice. I guess they'd need to be buffed if they got scratched but teams would protect them to save the bother.
Piped in (underground ) from a central gasworks. I'm not sure if they were on the same municipal gas system as the gaslight in homes, but it seems likely.
Okay wait, listen to yourself. You expected Obama to give a reasonable answer, and of course he did. Gosh, wasn't that nice? You might agree or disagree with his choices and priorities, but even his worst policies had SOME sort of reason behind them. And were stated in complete grammatical sentences that stayed in topic.
In 2025 the Los Angeles wildfires burned more than 16,000 homes and other buildings. And about 6,300 cars.
An outlier yes, but many of the wildfires do burn a significant number of structures, that's the main reason firefighters engage with them. The purely chaparral fires (which may be allowed to burn) are more distant from most pregnant women so even though the smoke blows over it's less concentrated.
The story says "wood smoke" but then they talk about Southern California wildfires, which typically contain a lot of other toxic materials from burning houses, other buildings, vehicles, power and telephone lines, etc. especially the fires burning in proximity to pregnant women.
