Twitter needs:
1) an edit button
2) a "disable gifs" option
3) a mass block button- block everyone who liked a racist/homophobic/etc. tweet.
4) ability to make tweets readable only in the original thread
5) warning if using the wrong form of you're/your before posting.

ETA:
6) spoiler protector
7) option to only view profiles with real name and photo
8) a bookmark option so you don't lose a post you want to respond to later
9) the ability to preemptively screen out profiles with certain words
10) turn off retweets universally

Ok.

This's what I know work for wasps..

You take a 2 liter empty pop bottle, cut off the top part (w/nozzle).
Fill with about an inch of sugar water, invert, so nozzle is downward.
They will be attracted to it, fly down the narrow opening,but can't fly out.
They won't die, but they can't get out.

Every outside patio should have, the one bar/beer garden I go to has one. I believe they hang them up on trees.

I did my first show with a cuck and loved it. To go from googling "what is a cuckold" to this is pretty damn insane lol. And now it's the only type of show that I want to do.

I'm also getting better at dirty talk. It's a weird thing to struggle with but I'm finally getting out of my own head and it's working.

Also, I'm fighting sleep like a 1 yr old.

Two months ago, I was at a gun shop, and I was approached by this guy in the store who asked if I'd be willing to do one of those 'girls with guns' photo shoots. He gave me his card, and I just kinda forgot about it. I went back today, and one of the guy behind the counter told me he's been asking about me every time he's been back and he'd left another card for them to give to me if they saw me again. Kinda creeps me out, but some of the sites he listed have a feature where the people he photographed can leave feedback, and the only negative thing I saw in any of those reviews was one of the checks he paid couldn't be cashed because he had badly misspelled her name, but he took care of that. Looking through his photo galleries, I'm really not liking his word.. his photography's good, but the ones he takes have all the usual faux pas... inadequate safety practices, fingers on triggers, etc.

I might stir up a lot of anger with this opinion but I hope Tony Robbins can work through his current scandal and get it cleared up. I've always liked him and IMO we need people like him. When I was young I was super sensitive and would get beaten down/discouraged easily. He helps people overcome their mental blocks to pursuing success. (it matters more than you think.)

^^^ I saw his me too mistep. I think this is sometimes I’m so leery toward LOA. I practice LOA and I also feel like one has to be careful not to over do pseudoscience. I do LOA meditations, but it has to be balanced with reason. He’s a cool guy, but I only follow women life coaches now. There’s just no way a white man can truly understand how hard it is to be a woman like me. I don’t hate him, but I wouldn’t buy his products anymore.

So I was thinking about the UK porn ban and how they say porn is so awful. Well I was watching a lovely romance porn. Healthier porn is the answer. It’s so sad people have such all or nothing thinking. They need a porn regulating agency- not to ban porn and sex work all together.

They do say using your imagination is the healthiest way to masturbate to avoid over doing it.

I definitely agree large men like Tony don't realize how it is to go through life being smaller, the target of harmful intentions, and ..well, being female.

People make mistakes...I feel like in his case he has done enough good that we should give him a chance to make amends.

Yes. Does it get better? Because for me it was a little too Ricky Gervaisy -- he brutally insults everyone in a small town. Dickish, I thought him.

It's number spoofing! You aren't alone, this has happened to me, also. My husband told me not to pick up. I mean, not sure what would happen if you do, but yeah, it's someone trying to otherwise scam people. I think they use an automated dialer or whatever.

It does get better and establishes that the dickishness is part of his grieving process. It gets a bit thick at times. I almost wish it hadn't been renewed since it's such a good, self-contained story.

Only thing we have here is dicks and academy. Used to have sports authority till they went out of business.

I find academy has the best deals but those bitches banned my online account - I used to shop online a lot - cause I refused an item on delivery then they had the gall to keep a portion of my refund so I reported them to PayPal who sided with me and got the full refund. They also charge high ass shipping for small items like $30 for something that should be no more than $5-$7. Sometimes I’d call and the rep would remove the shipping fees but I think they kept a record of me calling in. They are weird! Let’s just say academy’s online store is nowhere near as good as competitors

Dicks has decided to refuse to sell long guns to anyone under 21. Under federal and most state law, the minimum age is 18. I am over 21, but as a matter of principle I will no longer do business with it. There aren't any stores near me anyway.

I know people got pissed but a LOT of corporate stores/companies don't "do" guns on premises (Rick's Cabaret and Buffalo Wild Wings come to mind.) I think it's a good thing since it leaves a niche for independent gun stores. (NO, not every non-conservative hates guns.)

Random and awesome- Coca Cola is bringing back the "Blak" cola (a mix of coca cola and coffee syrup.) I had one when it was available in the US a decade ago- it made me feel odd (not bad) and I had to lay down. Definitely has a punch to it.

^ Hmm, also a cat supply store that has a grooming station there and call it "Pussy Parlor" or a pool hall called Dick's balls. There is one store that comes to mind that capitalizes on the whole penis and nuts thing. If you ever go to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee there's a store there called "Try My Nuts" and their logo/signature peanut character dude looks like a dick and balls. They do have really good nuts though. Damn, now I'm missing their bourbon praline pecans and butter toasted cashews. I used to travel through there twice a year but haven't in 3 years now.

I hated that store with the heat of a thousand burning suns long before the gun controversy. They totally screwed me over on an elliptical two years ago and I'm still dealing with the mess.

I haven’t bought a gun in a while and I’ve never bought very many, but Dick’s was never a place I would’ve bought one from, anyhow. Anything else they sell that I’d buy, I already buy elsewhere. Do they’re not really losing anything on account of me.

Public Service Announcement time- I gave myself food poisoning (by accident) a few days ago and I'm still sick. BTW this is a common problem when summer rolls around since hot temperatures/ BBQs can expose food to situations where bacteria grows in the food. Then you get sick after eating that food.

Just a reminder. You can use a clean cooler filled with ice to keep some items from getting warm. It's easy to do and really cheap.

I find the media and LE annoying. Why must they exaggerate every arrest due to sex work and label it as "human trafficking"? I clicked on a link that said that a major human trafficking ring in my area was nabbed. Upon reading the article there was no mention of any underage minors or any women or men found to be working against their will. It appeared to be 16 consensual sex workers and about as many johns. Ok, so you arrested a large number of consensual sex workers and sex buyers. That does not fall under "human trafficking" if all parties were consensual. I don't get what LE hopes to achieve by doing this. It's not going to stop men from seeking out services nor is it going to stop escorts from working. If anything, having prostitution on their record will keep them a lifelong sex worker or stuck working low paid unskilled labor jobs and they may eventually end up back escorting once they get tired of being broke.

I really want to say something about the tourist assaults and deaths in the Carribbean that have been on the news- it's worth paying attention to, and exercise caution whenever you travel.

That being said if you really are concerned about safety issues, book at a resort with zero or few incidents reported. TripAdvisor overhauled their ratings/review system to include reports of assault.

It's really shocking and not the norm at all on some islands. Makes me sad b/c I had a lot of great times there.

Just a quick read here of what you've posted .... it sounds like he's trying to spur jealousy on .
Maybe he is just telling you this stuff to get a reaction of some sort ? It's hard to tell not knowing the backgorund but he doesn't seem attached at all to this person ......
something seems off .

Okay, he just got a woman whom is so independent. He wants somebody to help support him with his bills. May be he cannot afford keeping me full-time. And it's not expensive to have her because she's so impressed with him when he DOES spare her a couple hundred bills.

Guess what, Petco rejected my dog for grooming because he is too old, has a fatty tumor, and other issues (I was honest about his behavior.) I'm guessing since some high-profile cases of pet deaths and issues at Petco groomer stations...They're reserving the right to reject some dogs.

I was actually thrilled b/c I was able to spend the money I would have spent on his grooming fees on other stuff I needed. I will groom him at home, he won't look super neat but he's ancient, he looks weird anyways.

Too old and has fatty tissues-this also describes my chi-mix. But the fatty tissues are not cancerous or anything. I don't get it? But I feel like Petco groomers/grooming stations tend to have a lot of issues, accidents etc. I feel better grooming my pets at home. I guess it just makes me feel like Petco groomers are the McDonalds of grooming?

It's partially their clientele! When I was in the office waiting for the groomer to finish getting manager approval to reject my dog (ha) I was watching the other groomer work on a giant Saint Bernard with dandruff & matted fur. I'm guessing the owners are too busy to do a bit of grooming at home (or unable to handle it) so they expect miracles from the groomers.

I was chill about it all because my dog is a pain in the behind behavior wise and does have his issues. I figure they get enough drama in there.

One thing I found today made my day- my Gameboy. With TETRIS! I've been wanting to pick one up on eBay or a second hand shop for a long time. Gameboy, and maybe the NES, is really the only way to play Tetris. Amazingly enough, the batteries were still good.
