(I know how tough it is to feel chained to your bed, and to feel unable to get up and do "simple" things like eating, showering, drinking water, etc. Now, going for a walk might be tough, but the physical body being healthy will help the mental too, I promise you.
All I ask is that you take it in little steps. Sit up, choose a playlist, kick your feet over the edge of the bed, and go on. I believe that you can do it. One small step at a time. And maybe you can't do it right now. But if you continue to try, you'll be able to.
Maybe try having a little stretch session in your bed. You don't have to move around too much, but it can help. I believe in you.)

anyway shoutout to the three little rats that just beat each other up in front of our doors, nearly broke the glass in the process, and then had the audacity to ask me for free popcorn and drinks like. What

I wanted to answer some tags but didn't know how best to do this so I'll just make a post. Because it's science and microbes and I can't resist a good ramble about my work.
Yes, you are supposed to cook meats and flour and other similar products because leaving them uncooked can open you up to ingesting dangerous pathogens, such as salmonella.
However, this isn't (or at least shouldn't be) a situation where if you do eat these undercooked things you are definitely eating salmonella and are going to get sick.
These bacteria and other harmful pathogens are not always present in these foods! And, in fact, the whole purpose of food safety and the food processing system is to be sure that they aren't in your food. Or, if they are, they are at such low/acceptable levels that even if you did eat raw chicken or a raw egg, you probably wouldn't get sick.
Some animals are more prone to carrying these bacteria naturally, without actual signs of infection - such as birds. That's why you should never eat undercooked chicken and why it's risky to eat raw egg. For some products, they don't tend to carry these pathogens naturally and really shouldn't be infected with them unless it's been introduced into the product somehow. Cows, non-meat products - stuff like that. That's why restaurants can serve rare steak/burger and why usually you can eat dough without too much concern.
(Also, ofc, as living creatures other meat animals and even plants do carry their own natural bacteria/etc. I'm sure some of these are pathogenic to humans but I wouldn't be able to name them off the top of my head.)
However, things happen. Salmonella gets from chicken skin/feathers into their meat/eggs. Cows eat feed with dangerous pathogens in them. Contaminated tools are used to harvest flour and pathogens are introduced into it. And then, things slip through the cracks. They didn't test the batch well enough. The part they tested wasn't infected but another batch was. A production farm/factory/etc doesn't follow proper guidelines and they haven't been inspected in awhile. Now there's food in the store that is infected with high level of pathogen. And by the time they realize and issue a recall, there may already be people sick.
So, long story short - recommended cooking processes are meant to keep you safe when things slip through the cracks. Even if pathogens exist in your food at high enough levels to infect you, thorough cooking kills most of them and makes your food safer to eat. It lowers your risk. But that doesn't mean you are actively ingesting pathogens every time you eat these raw products - in fact, you really shouldn't be (or, again, not at levels nearly high enough to make you ill).
An active recall means that they now *know* these pathogens are in your food at levels high enough to make you sick. This food will certainly make you sick if you don't cook it well enough - and the bar for what is thorough enough is now higher. So, it's best at that point to just throw the food away rather than take the risk. Especially with foods known to be eaten raw/undercooked (whether they're supposed to be or not). Also, you don't have to ingest the food to get sick...what if you use the flour in a project/activity for your kids? Touching it and then touching their mouths would be enough to infect them.
And that's the difference, thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

[click for details] The council (poll) has spoken with a clear winner! and here they are! Pyro warrior cat >:D!!
Probably the most difficult one yet, but I had a lot of fun trying to problem solve how to design them in a way that still maintained their anonymity
Image text below cut:
Always have flowers in their pelts!
Covered in thick mud constantly (they like it :] dries a bit near rear.)
"Mask" is a trash bag and plastic bottle with a wet rag inside (made by their respective Engineers.)
"Flamethrower" is an ignited stick covered in pine resin.
In battle, either Pyro will take a mouthful of a mixture made from prey's fatty oils and tree sap and spray it on their breath onto the ignited stick while aiming with their tail (think a fire breather.)

All of the TF2 mercs follow cartoon logic to me but Pyro is more cartoon than the rest of them.
There’s a delicious pie and they all start floating and Pyro floats higher, they break through the ceiling and fly into the sun never to be seen again

Luffy trying to recruit a news coo is easily the funniest possible opening.
Like. Sir.
That bird is EMPLOYED. Hell, he's probably unionized! You're like "But freedom!" as if the bird isn't already getting two weeks paid vacation at least!

(Don't forget about your loved ones in tough times. Apprecaite them. Don't exert yourself and force yourself to spend any energy, but maybe a quick hello or a calm interaction might be nice for that little reminder that hey!! There are people that are still around that care for you.)

Does anyone else ever think people are being too generous in assuming there are that many 'new' or lurker accounts that haven't changed their icons or posted anything?
Like, not a complaint - this doesn't affect me one way or another - but every time I see a post telling people they need to change their icons/etc because otherwise they'll be blocked as spam I'm like... Who are you talking to. There might be a couple here and there but I still think a solid 99.7% of accounts with no icons/posts ARE just spam. I don't think there's many people at all sitting there with blank accounts like ':( Aw... Why did they block me??'
I just think it's kind of funny.

Robin should get to play with fire more. She was so on board with those Molotovs let her be designated fire starter for backyard fire pits. She meticulously builds a cabin with dry grass and news paper in the centre, just to light it up. She gets really into candles. She makes her own fire starting kits with dryer lint and candle wax. For her birthday Steve gets her a keychain that's flint and steel and she legit thinks it's one of the best gifts she's ever gotten. She spends the rest of the day lighting shit on fire in the backyard. Let her be entranced by the flames! The heat! The power! Let her light shit on fire and give a frankly concerning cackle about it!!!!
