I mean, New York has a pretty big history with terrorism. There’s a whole wiki page of it.

I had ‘a little’ thinning back in 2013, and immediately went fully bald shaving my head 3x a week since then. Our appearances and acceptance of it depends on your ability to come to terms, identify and personify with the truth of the matter and your decisions.

I had thinning. I said fuck it and told myself how I would identify, instead of letting my genetics get the better part of me. I was in my early 20s. I’ve been bald since and when people know you as bald, they don’t judge you like people who knew you with hair.

Go all in, make it who you are, stop caring about hair, and people, and their opinions (if they matter), will follow. (That being said, don’t be bald with a stache, unless you’re ready for that kind of judgement. In my field it’s pretty common, and so are the ‘pedo stache’ jokes. You just have to ignore them. For clarity, I’m bald with a mustache.)

Your job must be pretty cool.

We usually keep a 3-dog pack at home, two small dogs (25-35 lbs) and one medium dog (65 lbs). The big boy with the bassy bark to deter break-ins and scare away harassers for my wife when she’s walking them, and the two smaller owns so we can manage a pack that everyone has friends in.

Our youngest is such a bundle of love and joy… I think we’ll get 10 more years out of him, at least. He’s four. We got him after the one that died from the bowel obstruction.

It’s rough, but in a few months my wife will probably want to get another medium sized boy, and she’ll check the pounds. I think it took us 3 months to replace the first one.

Lost a dog to lymphoma. The whole week prior he was mostly not eating, his back legs were swollen up, and he was having even more trouble standing up and walking. Saturday I woke up and found him under the guest bed laying in a puddle of blood, I cleaned everything up while my wife called vets and then researched an at-home euthanasia. He was 9, a pitlab mix. I figured the mix in him would make him healthy, but he died so young. I lost my last one to a bowel obstruction in 2020, he was 11 or 12. The next one’s 11 right now, but going strong. Watch the universe take him 2028, that’d be every 4 years right now…

Anyway, back to work tomorrow, so hey… the wheel keeps on turnin’.

And add onto that that Former (felonious) President Trump’s personal Doctor said he was the fittest president ever! The doctors will absolutely be on the payroll when it comes to the most powerful politicians.

There’s a US news community, too. News is news, world news is news happening in the world (that can also be interesting to people in other parts of the world and the US is in the world, too), and USA news is just USA news. Same with any other country specific news. If you want more ‘other places in the world’ world news here, then post some.

Edit: to make an even bigger point. I live in Atlanta, GA, USA. So, I like seeing the Atlanta community, and the Atlanta News one, Georgia news one, and the USA news one, and the Politics one, and the other half dozen other ones that directly pertain to me as a person who lives in ATL, and each tier above and around it.

This Georgia Indictment news pops up in all of them, and I understand. But, they’re all relevant to those communities so I’m not going to bitch about it. If I care about it, I’d find a way to fix it on my end because this it’s all still relevant there.

(Up to them changing the rules and blocking US news in the World News community… but, then how would everyone hear about their neighbor electing a crazy person and/or how that person took the presidency by force of coup and now controls the nuclear codes and the largest and/or most powerful military in the world?)
