I think it's somewhat telling that our male-indentified heroes in international media in the last century have been whittled down to Fred Rogers, Chuck Tingle, and Steve Irwin and we're still searching for reasons to hate them.

Yet another reason I'm not proud to be a cishet male.

I need to stop drinking and going to meetings again.

I'm not trying to find reasons to hate any of them. Chuck Tingle is a cool and good dude,evidently. I just don't think he should be on the same level as Fred Rodgers.
Just my persona opinion, nothing hateful intended.

Also both of Weird Al's parents died at the same time from carbon monoxide poisoning. :smith:

Huh. Odd that he only mentioned his mother. Makes me wonder, but not about how awesome Weird Al is.

That was the parody of Varsity Blues in Not Another Teen Movie, right? I owned VB on VHS and got caught sneaking into NATM for the boobies so I don't think I ever saw that scene (got caught early) but the tone is indelible.

Sometimes I'll be doing something and then think " Would that be how Mr. Roger would want you to be?"
Usually, the answer is no.

And very very very few people would ever reach his level, but it's important to keep trying. Even if you fail, failure doesn't make you a failure.









I did MDMA once many years ago, and felt such a pure all encompassing love for all beings that I knew I had a taste of what Fred Roger felt daily

Also the family was running a massive zoo that brought in tens of thousands of tourists from all around the world every year and was coordinating conservation efforts with other zoos all around the world

They still run the zoo and it is amazing. Most days they do the crocodile wrangling show themselves too.

I know this is a troll, but tbh I think it's more telling that people seriously struggle to think of even ten prominent male celebrities who haven't done or said something intensely lovely.

I can't close my toilet window because it's just glass slats fitted into the wood. I had to block it up with tape to stop all the smoke getting into the house.

Draught excluders on all doors and can't run the A/C :( Not even near any of the worst fires, either.

On the plus side, tonight's sunset was just gorgeous if you like ominous red.

We covered ours with a sheet of cardboard and duct-taped the edge. Works like a charm.

Are you sure your AC doesn't work? Ours works just fine without pumping smoke in. Check if it recirculates air, or as a mode to do so. Unless it's one of those swamp coolers with a bigass pipe you need to stick out the window, I guess.

Sadly I have an A/C from the dark ages. It's a single unit which sits where a window once was.

Works well when the entire city isn't covered in choking smoke haze.

There's rain forecast for late tonight and early tomorrow, so hopefully that'll settle things.

But I'm not going to complain too loudly. I'll take smoke over fire any day of the week.

Right now the air forecast map's not so great; Nowhere in Victoria is getting clean air til Friday when the wind changes, and NSW won't get that until sometime Saturday.

And Thursday is gonna be the worst of it by far.
