Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How can a naturally anxious person keep from worrying while laid up in bed with a broken ankle and leg?
1·2 years agoAt least talk to your doctor. He might know of an anti-anxiety medication that would be safe with your other meds.
This just happened to us today! We took the dog to some trails nearby. On the way home wife wants me to go by Target for a few things. We get there and she asks if we should take him in with us. I’m like “Hell no. I already think Home Depot is a no go even though it’s a common site there, but I draw the line at a place like Target.” And don’t even get me started on the rudeness of owners who don’t carry waste disposal bags any time they have their dog.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's a situation you were involved in where "the good guys" won?
11·2 years agoThe crooked board of directors of our company hired a narcissist and small time corporate raider to become the CEO of our company. He did millions of dollars of damage to our company in three short years, but we finally ousted him and good people are back in charge.

Lemmy Apps@lemmy.world•What’s is the most feature rich client for iOS.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Several Lemmy iOS apps look to have left TestFlight!English
1·2 years agoI like thunder except for the way it displays long horizontal images in my tablet.
No advice, but I sympathize. I once sat listening to music while waiting for my flight to board. When there was no activity and fewer passengers in the area than I expected, I discovered that while I had been waiting they changed the gate for my flight. I ended up waiting in Chicago Midway (this was before their big upgrades in the early 00s) for 12 hours. It was hell.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•all animals will go to hell because they don't believe on god and that's frightened me.
1·2 years agoYou might enjoy this article about this very thing; apparently John Wesley had some thoughts about this. https://firebrandmag.com/articles/all-cats-and-dogs-go-to-heaven#:~:text=It's particularly interesting given Wesley's,It was paradisiacal%3B perfectly happy.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•I am pissed apparently Holly by Stephen King will not be narrated by Will PattonEnglish
2·2 years agoThat’s how I felt when listening to King’s Dark Tower series when Frank Muller was replaced with George Guidall (who is a fantastic narrator in his own right). Then I discovered there was a pretty compelling reason they had to switch.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Lemmy Democrats, what is just ONE nice thing you can say about Donald Trump?
5·2 years agoThat was one of my first observations about him was that he just isn’t very intelligent.
All of the cans had both ends cutout of them except one…the bottom can. The end of the tube was sealed by that end of the can. On the side of the can just an inch or so from the end you put a hole large enough to squirt in the lighter fluid. I remember some kids shaking the tube to try and get the lighter fluid throughout the tube and not just in the end, but I never noticed that helped.

We used to make those too. We called them tennis ball canons. You pretty much described the whole thing. Make a big tube from a bunch of cans taped together and put a hole in the bottom one. Squirt lighter fluid into the hole, put your tennis ball in the other side, and light the lighter fluid through the hole.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Have you *ever* filed for your share of class-action litigation settlement money?
2·3 years agoEvery now and then I browse https://topclassactions.com/category/lawsuit-settlements/open-lawsuit-settlements/ to see if there is anything I qualify for. Most are $5-$10 things. But they give you these virtual gift cards with the money on them, and you cannot combine them all into one card. So now I have a bunch of these cards with $2-7 on them, and I can’t use them because there’s not enough on any card to buy anything.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why is fountain soda better than canned or bottled?
