I don’t know how it works (I’m not the tech one in the relationship), but I’ve been using family sharing for years with my partner

I don’t know what they call it where you are from but here light rail is trams. Similar to San Francisco cable cars.

If I go to sleep now I’m going to wake up to a toy being shoved in my face and “play with me mummy” or a screaming kid from a nightmare. If I stay up an extra hour I get to be by myself for an extra hour.

Either way I’ll be tired.

Not much choice there, I’ll stay up and be more sleep deprived.

Pets to your kid I can understand. My cats are on the way out (one passed this year and the other is 16 and not in good health).

My kid is already asking for a dog. I know if I gift a dog it’s actually on me to look after it. Gifting to someone who isn’t a minor or outside your household though? That’s a shitty move

I assume it’s a fee for early checkin at the beginning and late checkout at the end of the stay.

Is that the origin of devils advocate?

That is super interesting if so

Can’t shop at Cotton On anymore.

Would you like to buy the single use plastic water to provide safe drinking water to people? No. How about make a donation to starving kids? No. How about buying these socks to support shelter for some country? No. Are you a member? No. Would you like to be a member? No.

Would you… “NO. JUST LET ME PAY FOR MY T SHIRT”

Would you like a plastic bag for your shopping?

Refuse: No thanks.

Reduce: I’ll take just 1 bag and stuff it all in there, don’t need 2.

Repurpose: it’s ok because I’ll use this bag as a bin liner.

I started voting conservative at 18, because my parents did and I didn’t know who to vote for (we have compulsory voting in my country). Swapped to the other side late 20s and now mid 30s I can’t see it changing anytime soon.

Our pickup, you can push the gear stick left and it becomes basically manual with no clutch. You tell it to change gears and it will except when it says “no” ie high speeds and you ask to change down a gear when it’s high revs in current gear, it beeps at you and won’t change.

We’ve found that more than adequate for towing a 19ft caravan.

Risk free acid trip

Move to the Southern Hemisphere. It’s in the middle of Summer here.

Then you can sing about snow falling and fireplaces while sweating your balls off.

Maybe it’s different in the USA, but I’ve travelled a lot and don’t think I ever remember a long haul flight without multiple babies and young children. It’s just a fact of travelling.

I recently did a 16hr flight solo and the other 3 seats in my row of 4 were parents and a toddler.

That’s just part of flying and you should plan for it (noise cancelling headphones, sleeping tablets, ear plugs).
