  • Local law enforcement was having a training session very close by. That and the fact the shooter was the son of a Sherrif deputy are the reasons you could hear them blowing themselves over their fast response the whole time. Not that the fucker was putting up all the red flags for fucking years while being heavily involved in local law enforcement and constantly around guns.





  • Yay a question just for me. Okay so you’re going to want to try a couple things. First give them a good spray of just regular Lysol or adjacent, the idea is first eliminating anything living that might grow back. The next is a product from Lincoln called EZ cleaner. Take the cleaner a few drops of a dish detergent and hot hot water and scrub it into every surface. Then take a rag to blot at the surface a bit. Once they are dry you’re going to take a similarly stiff dry brush and brush them all over with the intent of both making them fuzzy again as well as freeing the dirt that has come to the surface during the cleaning process.

    If that didn’t work and it’s probable it won’t try a few more times. If that still won’t work you might need new Birks or perhaps have a cobbler like me replace the footbeds if you are particularly attached


  • It does make sense but that’s because we made it to make sense. We experience the universe through cause and effect, so we’ve created the concept of time to follow that chain. Now we look at time as some constant through the universe but is it really? We can observe matter popping in and out of existence at the subatomic scale that ignore the rules that we observe galaxies obey so how can we be sure time follows the same cause and effect everywhere?

    In other words i see the Many Worlds Theory as a useful tool in describing the results of different permutations of the universe but as countless independent universes in which only one thing was ultimately changed existing all at once? Seems a bit of a long shot to my underinformed opinion













  • No sure shot but it does sound like it’s not the alarm that’s the problem. You’ve trained yourself to be able to ignore your alarm, that it doesn’t mean “get-out-of-bed” time to your unconscious brain. Change the alarm tone on your phone and have a few practice sessions. Set your new alarms after a short nap and as soon as those alarms go off throw off all the covers and stand up fully as soon as you can. The idea is to retrain your brain to get up all the way at the sound of that alarm.

    Another thing that’s really helped me personally is installing a smart light bulb that turns itself on just before my sound alarms start going off. That way I’m not trying to force myself awake in a dark noisy room.
