The kid next door (talking toddler age) is playing outside and just wiped out in his Fisher Price car, and I just heard the babysitter say, āoh no, your insurance premium is definitely going to go up!ā And the kid who had only been mildly sniffling before made the most confused, but startled sound youāve ever heard.
Just very clearly an attempt at saying, āmy what?ā
He straight up forgot about his scraped knee and is now worried about whatever the fuck an insurance premium is.
unbelievable that its 4/20 and absolutely nobody has put the objectively best rage comic on my dash yet. i have to do everything around here

not a rage comic but this is a personal favorite
A proposal
Sometimes, in fandom, we just want to write id-tastic fic that rolls around in tropes that might be viewed as problematic. But we donāt want to address the problematic side of things in this particular fanwork; we just want to roll around and wallow.
It is considered courteous to give readers a heads-up via use of AO3 tags. I propose a tag that signals that a given fanwork is for rolling around, not giving a measured evaluation of anything. The MCU has carved out a space for this sort of fic with the āHYDRA Trash Partyā tag, for which I commend them. Trash Party is a bit too specific to cover all of the ground Iām thinking of here, though; I propose āDead Dove: Do Not Eat.ā
For those of you not familiar with Arrested Development, Michael Bluth finds a paper bag in the freezer labeled āDead Dove: Do Not Eat.ā He opens the bag, finds a dead dove, and reacts as follows:
[gif of a white man saying āI donāt know what I expectedā in a deadpan manner]
The āDead Dove: Do Not Eatā tag would essentially be a āwhat it says on the tinā metatag, indicating āyou see the tropes and concepts tagged here? they are going to appear in this fic. exactly as said. there will not necessarily be any subversion, authorial commentary condemning problematic aspects, or meditation on potential harm. this fic contains dead dove. if you proceed, you should expect to encounter it.ā

WHOA WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS THE POST THAT SPAWNED DEAD DOVE DO NOT EAT
Happy dead dove do not eat birthday!
I apologize to everyone whose grammar I ever corrected before I learned not to be a tool.
your forgiven.
Youāreā¦ really sweet to do that. Thanks.

Nice pos- WOAH WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT
its really cool that we discovered glass which is the material that doesnt have any chemical reactions with anything in the universe very useful for doing chemistry due to being able to put things in it to contain chemical reactions and never having it react with the things that are in it due to it being completely and entirely unreactive to every chemical

Because the obvious (and wrong) answer is that Magneto beats Tony easily because he can control Tony's armor and crush him
But the smarter (and wrong) answer is that Iron Man's armor isn't actually made of iron, it's made of a non-magnetic gold-titanium alloy.
But then the smartest and true answer is that Magneto beats Tony easily because Tony has metal shrapnel in his bloodstream that he needs a powerful electromagnet to stop from reaching his heart.
but the silliest answer is magneto would win easily by controlling the āIRONā in iron manās name rearranging this fool name to āAMINO RNā turning him into easily absorbed simple protein instantly

Hello friends, some places are going to get snow that aren't very used to snow. As a result, emergency rooms are probably going to see an increase in heart attacks due to people shoveling snow (we call certain snowfalls widowmakers for a reason!).
If you and your loved ones don't want to experience this, please be sure to gently warm yourselves up (exercise wise, although clothing wise is good to) before shoveling any snow. Learn the signs of a heart attack and listen to your bodies!
A freshly shoveled driveway is nice, but living is even nicer.
This is no joke! My perfectly healthy uncle died at 52 from this. And I had a neighbor who died in his late 30's too. When the body isn't used to strenuous activity in the cold, it creates a temperature differential that can cause a heart attack. Please be careful!
New Englander and biologist here! This is all correct and EXTREMELY important.
The biggest thing to understand here is that this isn't, "Oh, you can die from exercise if you're out of shape!"
This is, "You can die from strenuous exercise in the cold, regardless of your physical fitness."
Your circulatory system is a major, major part of how your body maintains a regular body temperature. When it's really hot out, blood vessels dilate (widen), which thins the walls a bit and makes it easier for heat to escape the blood stream. This is why when you are really hot (it's hot outside, or you just finished a work out at the gym), you get flushed. The red color of your skin is from dilating blood vessels.
In contrast, to conserve heat in the cold, your blood vessels constrict. When they get narrower, the walls are thicker, and heat can't escape as well.
But the problem is that when blood vessels narrow, it increases your blood pressure. A lot. And if you are not in peak cardiovascular shape, this can be a huge risk for your heart if you then do a lot of strenuous exercise, which shoveling absolutely is. When I was going to the gym regularly, it was still tough.
Tips to decrease your chances of dying from shoveling:
Try not to lift snow when you shovel. It's better to push it to the side whenever you can, and if you do have to lift it, that's okay, but don't dramatically toss it over your shoulder. Just kind of lift it off the ground and dump it aside. Keep everything low to the ground.
Bundle up. The warmer you can keep your body using insulation, the less your blood vessels will have to constrict. This is especially important for your core, but also your arms and legs.
Consider compression socks, if you have any, to keep your blood flowing easily in your lower legs.
As mentioned above, do an actual exercise warm-up before you shovel. Again, it's not that shoveling is an Olympic sport, it's that you are about to put a huge strain on your cardiovascular system and you need to prepare.
Take frequently breaks inside. This is probably the most important one, and the one that a lot of people are the worst at. Don't power through to finish it all in one go. Set a loud timer on your phone and take lots and lots of breaks. Take those breaks inside where it's warm. Because again, the issue isn't just the activity, but the temperature.
Finally, and I can't stress this enough: NOT shoveling is not laziness, and if you can avoid doing it while still clearing your walkways, steps, or driveway, you should. This could mean using a snow blower if you can get your hands on one, but it could also mean hiring someone or using a lot of ice melt. Ice melt isn't ideal because it doesn't really clear snow, but it's better than nothing, will help prevent slipping accidents if you use it consistently, it's easy to apply, and you can get pet-safe versions.
Hiring someone isn't a sign of laziness or a privileged attempt to avoid a chore that we all should have to live with. Hire someone with better cardiovascular fitness! Hire someone who owns proper winter gear! Hire someone who is well-practiced in shoveling so they don't overtax themselves! Hire someone who owns a snow blower! Again, I live in New England, so your mileage may vary, but our town's facebook page is littered with high schoolers and their parents leaving phone numbers and neighborhoods and cost estimates. Others are offering it for free for elderly and disabled neighbors. This isn't like hiring a house cleaner or a landscaper.
When it comes to clearing snow, we really do need to do it, since otherwise sidewalks become impassable or dangerously icy. But anyone who complains that, "Oh, people are so LAZY about it!" needs to stop, and everyone needs to remember and understand that clearing snow in the cold is extremely dangerous, and we have to take care of our circulatory system when we do it.
