Post your random thoughts, questions, ideas here... I'll start
1) Have you ever watched America's Funniest Videos and wonder why the winning video is almost NEVER funny AT ALL?? We were watching some older episodes on Disney Plus and the final 3 videos are always stupid and not funny, and the worst one ALWAYS wins.. WTF..
2) How have cereal bags NOT been made with zip lock technology??
3) They need to make a container that can keep to-go french fries from getting soggy...

Just had a fairly large anxiety attack. I had to get up, pace around and take deep breaths. Now I’m just exhausted.
Anyone else get anxiety/panic attacks? If so, how do you deal with them?

I had a really bad one in 2017 a bit after a family member died. Went to the hospital and the doctor asked me how I even got there with my blood pressure where it was at. Hasn't happened since. Wish I had a good answer for you but I just had to work myself to a better place mentally. Have you tried therapy at all?

Why did I receive mail from Chewy? We don't have any pets here and I've never ordered anything from them.

So I checked the envelope. Not the wrong address. Hmmm, maybe they sensed that some of us here want a pet?

Casinos/slot machines are the worst. Thankfully cashed out ahead (+$1100). Rarely have we left above. Gdamn machines know how to keep ya in the seat! Shoulda walked out with at least another $400, but oh well, a win is a win!
In Maricopa Arizona. We stole land from Native Americans, gave them land in the desert, and they built casinos and have lots of great tribal laws for protection and tax exemption yeah? But now, those casinos are run by mega Vegas empires, but retain tribal names. We're at Harrah's Ak-Chin which is owned by Caesars.
Are we screwing the Indians yet again? Survey says... yes.

In a brief Google search, it looks like Caesars is the management partner, but the tribe owns it (and has been putting the profits to a lot of good use, both in expanding and improving the casino, and on the reservation itself.
If you are going to run a casino, may as well let the guys in Vegas who know how to do it best handle the day to day stuff

Many years ago I watched a Native American comedian. He said the US government would move NA tribes west and then sign a treaty saying the land was theirs "as long as the water flows and the grass grows". As white people moved further west and wanted the fertile land for farming, the US government would move the NAs again with another treaty saying again the land was theirs "as long as the water flows and the grass grows". He said the US government finally solved "the Indian problem" by moving them where the water didn't flow and the grass didn't grow.

Proposing in a month. Been with her for almost 12 years and have been living with her for like 7, so I certainly shouldn’t be anxious but boy, am I anxious.

Go for it!
My wife and I had been together ten years before I proposed. The scariest thing was asking her father permission before I did it and that scared the crap out of me. I was a nervous wreck leading up to asking him.

Careful, you don't want her to file a btr over the rock on the engagement ring!
Snarky reply #2:
Trades have to be something of value. What's she getting out of it?
Snarky reply #3:
Great idea! That way if you change your mind later you don't need a divorce, you can just cancel the trade
