Sounds like you met a hardcore exorcist

I am the 11:30 am friend

The sausage is missing, don’t you see?

I don’t believe so. I believe religions are human creations and as such, they can’t be awful if people don’t have that awful side to begin with. If religions disappeared overnight or were magically erased from existence we would still struggle with the same issues, only with a different flavour. Perhaps there would be no lies on certain topics but I’m not too sure that would make a massive difference overall.

For the record, Australia uses those too

Maybe Ursula Le Guin? The left hand of darkness is quite thought provoking. People can switch sexes at will in that story. Yes, there is some mention of nudity and adult topics but I can’t recall a single sex scene. If this sounds too risky, try the wizard of Earthsea, which I found incredibly bland and super safe for work. It’s about as riské as Harry Potter 1. And is a short read too.

I think you should be safe with most classics, like the other comment said, Agatha Christie is a good choice… Though maybe not super progressive.

Your cat is really lucky or rather smart- cricket legs are a choking hazard. Whenever eating crickets, locusts and grasshoppers you always got to remove those legs 👍

A novel. First because I’m not sure on some key aspects of the plot, second because I’m not an amazing writer

Supermarkets and businesses throwing food away and not allowing people to take it for free. (“If I can’t sell it nobody can have it”).

Also depends on which animals

It’s The Guardian. Take it with a pinch of salt. Sorry, I should have linked the original papers.

This is just 64 GB but yeah why not

They can’t be dimmed manually. On and off is a different story, though most people drive with their lights on at night, even in roads that have lights- and that’s fine.

To a degree, yes some cars now don’t have those blinding lights but at least here in Australia it’s not the majority. Parking lights are usually fine, but headlights are most often awful. They’re supposed to dim in proximity of other cars yet it hardly ever happens. And what’s worse is that for a lot of models, the driver has no control over this.

I didn’t know that either about beavers. Or chitons. But I already knew about mollusks doing crazy things with iron, like that armor plated snail.

I’m surprised Komodo dragons need their teeth to last, reptiles afaik replace their teeth indefinitely

Ahh good old chubbyemu. I did read it from Wikipedia though, I found it really sad and tragic

:( oh no now I must search for it

Yes well I can also use it as a coaster or as a tv for a dolls house, yes lots of alternatives

This and super bright car headlights

Hard to say given the situation. In fact hard to say even if I had witnessed personally. All I can say is, this guy noticed you and for whatever reason wants to interact with you, I believe out of curiosity. From there to say he’s attracted in a sexual or romantic manner is a stretch.
