Wish I had your luck. I’ve had issues three times with checked bags in the last 15 years.

I will always do everything in my power to NOT check a bag and have them lose it. So I bring a roller bag and a backpack.

I didn’t know that elements had a defined temperature. Bang up reporting there, NBC.

Extreme fatigue, chills, and sore muscles all over kicked in about 10 hours after the shot, lasted about 6 hours, and then I slept after that.
The Saatva I bought about ten years ago is still holding up well, after the previous Sealy only lasted about 3-4. Generally I think people need a more firm mattress than they think they want when they’re at the store and plunk down into a big soft pillowtop thing.

maniacal_gaff@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•‘Unluckiest generation’ falters in boomer-dominated market for homes0·2 years agoMy dad, a boomer, passed away a few weeks ago and I can understand why he got a reverse mortgage. He had cancer and knew he was going to die, and he did it to guarantee that my mom has a place to live for the rest of her life since she’ll be surviving on only social security and some pensions. But it sucks that that wealth will disappear at that point and us kids won’t inherit it. That’s ok, we don’t feel entitled to it, but that is definitely one way that houses are being snapped up by companies and not somehow transferring to individuals.
Hm I wonder how the next scene will go. Gray ash huh? Well I guess I should have seen that coming.
