It’s all fucking weird. I never took photos of my child naked. I don’t get the idea at all.

12 is a great number isn’t it. I remember one especially boring job I had for a while I would spend large amounts of time counting in base 12 on my fingers (using my thumb to tap the three segments of my four opposing fingers) into the thousands and start over.
My brain actually computes it first as 7 + 5 = 12 + 1 = 13.
I add 5s together a lot at my work (14, 19, 24… 63, 68, 73…) hard to explain why, but my brain jumps to 5s very easily for addition because of it.
We noticed you liked that tree. Would you like to see it again in 45 minutes?
A YouTube channel that discusses Missing 411 style content: people disappearing under mysterious circumstances.
A running theme in their show is that overwhelmingly the RCMP are criminally negligent in their duties, are very quick to write off missing persons as runaways, do absolute garbage tier investigation, and that’s where my comment came from.
Not necessarily a topical episode but I like this one: https://youtu.be/f7389EXjdBg
As is the locust tree! The one with the huge spikes on it
7,000 lbs, fucking hell. Who needs such a massive vehicle??
Anyone who’s seen Lore Lodge says that they probably should be called a terrorist organization

Definitely. Deserts can have incredible biodiversity. A lot of species of cactus, sedges, euphorbia, composite flowers, wrens, songbirds, the list goes on.
Barren deserts probably are so destitute and lacking in humidity that practically nothing can grow there.
I find Germans have an easier time replying to things very frankly and without garnishment or humor. I can ask a German, “How are you?”, and he may reply with “I’m fine” and it can be taken at face value.
Americans tend to be more, I don’t know, conflict avoidant in their replies? There’s more expectation of subtext, of irony, and it’s not as typical to take “I’m fine” at face value.
“Can’t complain” is another good one. It’s often heard as, “I can’t complain [because nobody would listen anyway]”. Tone is important, as is environmental context. Blue collar workers at the site say this, yeah their day is going to shit. Your buddy says it over drinks, maybe he’s having a neutral, normal time of life, or maybe his life is going to shit and he’s giving the ironic answer to avoid diving into his real issues, while still communicating that things are not perfect.
Last week I was asked how my day was. It had been a perfectly normal, decent day, good time at work, beautiful weather, and my reply was “Life’s a peach”. I got back, “That bad, huh?” Yeah, the American habit of taking genuine expression and searching for a darkness under it can be tiring sometimes.

Folded for the very first time!
1 + 1 = 2, or sometimes it’s 6, you know things can move sometimes
