Be careful with a stungun. It requires close range confrontation, and It's not effective if the assailant is drugged up or heavily drunk and ignores the shocks.

Mace gives good distance, and pepper in the eyes doesn't care about the stimulants in your blood stream.

Also practice with it. A large number of people carry self defense tools and choke under pressure/fail to use it correctly during situations.

I got a bread maker for free. I asked my coworkers and THREE different people said they had a bread maker that's just sitting there, unused as gifts that they don't want.

Oh, and you don't want it and want the stupid model? You can still buy it for 3x the price.

Put a reminder on the month as well.

Add it as a alarm.

Boomerang the email reminder.

Write a post it note.

Make a chat reminder that will fire a few days prior to the event.

Make a chat reminder that will fire the day of the event.

Secretary Kristi Noem and the Department of Homeland Security announced $94 million in federal grants to over 500 Jewish-based organizations across the United States.

Fuck Noem and her ICE bullshit.

I welcome this. Jewish Americans have been wrongfully threatened over things Israel has been doing. Jewish Americans (the many im friends with) hate the Israel govt's actions and leaned heavily Democrat. Temple were getting weekly bomb scares during 2024, and there's been lots of harassment and physical violence. They walked alongside of us during BLM and No Kings.

I wish this was extended to the Muslim community. But of course, we know why it's not.

During breaks after lunch, my office coworkers all grab small bowls of cereal from the break room and just eat it dry.

I thought it was weird at first but the more I think about it, it shouldn't be. It's pretty much sugary snacks.

It used to be PBS for adults. I remember turning it on and there would be a documentary about like piano players and the connection to the brain.

Went down hill thanks to reality TV.

America won the war against smoking in restaurants, which is nice.

Maybe we won because we didn't actually have a war.
