Man what a blast from the past. I haven’t seen these in idk how long but my mom had these when I was growing up. I don’t even remember the stories, but those illustrations were awesome and are among some of my earliest memories of being unnerved by an art style (along with the legendary Scary Stories and the Wizard of Oz series from 1900 with the W.W. Denslow illustrations)
Im sure some people are attention seeking to some degree but most people i know who go on neighborhood runs are just out doing their own thing and if anything are overly self conscious about showing off their bodies. I overheat incredibly quickly when I go for runs, and I frequently have to peel off my top layer and I’m still soaked. I can’t imagine I’m the only one. And I absolutely hate having any attention drawn to myself. Judgment from other people when I’m just out trying to get in a nice run outdoors sucks.
I’m absolutely gaping with excitement for these games!
There’s a few spiders that do this (I know some orb-weavers do) and IIRC scientists don’t know for sure why, though it’s been hypothesized that it could be either to confuse potential predators or to make themselves and their webs obvious to larger animals.
Some orb weavers like Argiopes even make a thick zigzag construction in their web called a stabilimentum that we don’t really understand the function of, but one theory is to make the web more visually obvious so larger animals don’t accidentally barrel into them.
Spiders are neat.

Years ago my GF declared that if she were ever going to be in a porn, her nom de poon would be Teen LaQueefa. I settled on Kenny Lingus.
Wolfthorne is the only deodorant I’ve tried that I actually like the smell of (vs just tolerating it)
If they could figure out a way to make their antiperspirant in the same consistency as the deodorant that would be amazing. Hate the white chalky feeling shit
Your shitpost is currently sitting around sinety up votes nice
Thank you ‐ I promise I’ll follow up myself like I should lol. Really hoping more impactful legislstion like this becomes a trend.
I haven’t followed this as closely as I should have, but I remember seeing a Louis Grossman Rossmann* vid (huge right to repair advocate) essentially throwing his hands up at the New York version of this, as it basically took all teeth out of the bill by providing loopholes for companies to bypass the requirements for “safety concerns.” Is it the same situation in the other states?
*I have no excuse I’m just an idiot
Thank you so much for this. I think “Waiting for Edward” with Dennis Leary is still my favorite of all time
For a second I thought there was one that might be interesting but then I realized I had misread and “Jack Russels Gone Wild” was not in the list.
I like Fruity smells too! I have one now that smells kinda like a SweetTart candy but it’s called Wolfthorne and is aggressively masculine in the packaging and such lol
I’ve been using my browser to view Lemmy so far, still waiting on Boost for Lemmy. Decided to try Sync while Boost is still being worked on, and I gotta say I’m really liking it so far.
I don’t personally think it’s wierd, but my partner told me I sounded like an old for using the word “flummoxed”
