This is an old old fear for me thanks to my dad. Told me the tale that spiders love to home in warm dark moist areas and our mouths are perfect spots to settle overnight if we leave them agape while sleeping. I’m still arachnophobic to the point seeing close up photos of them makes me visibly sweat.
This comic def reminds me of childhood nightmares.

Depends how much it snows and how cold it gets. Much of this may sound over-cautious if your winters are mild.
-
Most cities/towns have by-laws regulating property owners clear and rock-salt their walkways within a set amount of time after snow has ceased falling,
-
If you use a shovel, get an ergonomic one. It is very easy to hurt your back clearing snow. No matter how long you wait, the plow always comes AFTER you’ve cleared your driveway,
-
If you have kids, get into the routine of checking local news for ‘snow days’, or in other words the schools have announced they are closed due to poor road conditions,
If you drive:
-
Wiper fluid needs to be swapped out for winter fluid or it may freeze in the reservoir,
-
Get a windshield ice-scraper/brush,
-
Your vehicle should have a good emergency kit including first aid, a candle/matches, and blanket in case you get stuck in the boonies during a winter storm,
-
Expect black-ice and snow drifts while driving. Both love to cause you to lose control. Rain freezing on the trees, while absolutely gorgeous, is a sign to take the day off work to avoid driving,
-
If it gets really cold and/or you’re in an area with high seasonal precipitation you’ll want to have a vehicle that is equipped with a block heater (if it is gas combustion engine ofc), and have an extra set of winter tires (sometimes a legislated requirement too) to change for the season.
- Keep an eye on your (and I guess your neighbours if you want to be helpful) house’ roof and make sure the snow doesn’t build up too much as this can cause damage/leaks/collapses if it gets too heavy

No, in the whole sense. It could very easily be interpreted that He gave Baal-rogs what would in modern days be described as a ‘jetpack’. 2 flames jutting out from the rear. Baal-rog is dark-speech for “breaks sound barrier”. We are talking about supernatural creatures that by definition transcend expectations and as such verisimilitude doesn’t apply.
None of them could go 400 mph. That’s just silly
And completely in keeping with every other facet of fantasy if you want to be that way. A Baalrog can go 400mph just as easily as Gandalf could teleport. All it takes is the stroke of a pen.
Photo needs over 500,000 instead of 5 on the bottom track. Fake news. Uninstalled.
Our judicial system is based on what we can prove, and we can’t prove things that didn’t happen.
Hooo boy, do I have some bad news for you…
It biases them towards catering to public demand instead of being a neutral arbiter of justice.
Want to keep your job as judge? Better not be ‘weak on crime’ etc…
Yup. Or in other words “spikes”.

31·7 days agoOOC if I had a pet pig. Loved it. Gave it a full and happy life safe and warm in my house until one day it died of old age. Would it be okay to give the body to my destitute neighbours so they can feed their dogs?
Edit 21hrs later: Your silence speaks volumes
I regret that I have but 1 upvote to give this.

Okay but why go through the battery interface and not try the old converter cable one? Much easier to splice the cable past the box than try to rig a connection to the underside of the laptop. Would also prevent any ‘no battery’ issues too.
The battery is DC. How do you plan to provide DC to the battery connection from AC outlets without a convertor?
Sunflowers were already Ukraine’s national flower, but they emerged as a symbol of resistance after a widely shared video clip appeared to show a Ukrainian woman berating Russian soldiers, telling them to put sunflower seeds in their pockets so that flowers would grow after they died in battle.
