In one of my first lucid dreams, I was hanging out with a bunch of friends and noticed that they were a hodgepodge of people I knew, but who wouldn't know each other. And suddenly I realized, "this is a dream".

I proceeded to walk out onto the balcony and fly away... because flying was absolutely the first thing I wanted to try. Flew around, checked out some different planets, and then subtly slipped back into dreaming, losing control once again.

Lucid dreaming happens to me occasionally and I love it every time. And I always choose to fly lol, I can't help myself

Looks like "Martian Shakers". Though they must have a special edition, because the ones I found have blue eyes

Found them for $7.99 here

I thought it was a microphone and read the title at least 3 times, before finally understanding.

Yay! Maybe my mind isn't as corrupt as I believed it to be!

Flaming?

I wasn't really disagreeing with you, just being a bit sarcastic saying your response is "too logical". I'm in the US (which is where the article is from), and is why I mentioned needing better social reform... because our prison system is an atrocity. But I was honestly agreeing with you overall

That's too logical. Even more logical would be putting money toward social reform programs, instead of blanketing everything under a prison system that does nothing to rehabilitate, and exists solely to punish

Surprised they didn't throw more charges for "endangering her newborn" by giving birth in a jail shower.

Edit: I guess the prison system doesn't exist "solely" to punish. It also exists to suppress any challenge to the status quo, extort money from vulnerable populations, and probably a whole list of other neat little "features"

We're not all like that. Some of us do really care (a whole lot) about the person, and not just "the patient". We get eye-rolled and sighed at sometimes because we speak up; but it doesn't matter because advocating for our patients is one of our top priorities.

Some hospitals have better work-cultures than others, but all of them have at least a few who truly give a damn

I recently moved to a new place surrounded by leafy trees and realized I'll actually have to rake the yard, for the first time in a very long time.

But I also just bought a small leaf blower to clear the driveway after mowing... and you made me realize that it's... well... a leaf blower. I hope it's powerful enough, but I bet it'll still speed things up regardless

I have a silver Jansport that is probably a decade old now and is still used 3 times a week or more for work, as well as used for airplane travel.

I'm about to look into having the large zipper repaired (it still zips, but I just have to make sure it's aligned now), rather than buying a new one. Best backpack I've ever had
