>randomly thought up of individual QQers being called a: "Quivering Quim." out of the blue
Man, my brain cooks up some wild shit when its left idle.
 
I was just about to go get food, checked my account and shit that hadn't charged me in months because it was canceled all hit today to steal forty bucks from me!

I did what you're supposed to do in this situation and guess what? 7-10 business days.

Motherfucker…

Someone tried to tell me the US needed back up in WW1 and that the American army didn't exist back then.

Relevant old post. And it's only barely an exaggeration.

To this day, the Onion has my absolute favorite summary of WWI.

But yes, that idea is pretty stupid. The USA was the backup for their side, and they had the benefits of not joining the war early and not being on the same continent as the vast majority of the fighting. I don't know if the Central Powers would have won, but the USA showing up broke a literally entrenched deadlock that otherwise didn't look like it was going anywhere any time soon.

The idea that "the US Army didn't exist before WWI" could be technically true, if the military at the time had a different logistical and command structure, enough so that when it was revamped, it was considered a different organization altogether. But I don't think even that applies.

WWI was the war almost everyone saw coming, nobody wanted, nobody could figure out how to stop, and even the winning side was severely damaged. The USA was the closest thing to a winner, because thanks to repositioning themselves after arriving late and suffering minimal fighting and damage on their territory, they became the global superpower.

I am fuuuuuucked!

I can't even physically get the tire off to put the donut on!

I sure as hell can't buy a new tire!

I'm going to lose my car. Just when I thought I might be able to start getting something going

Edit; traded my leather jacket for some help. Guy had better tools, got the tire off. Apparently it might have been over tightened?

Donut's on, so my fucking is deferred for a little while.

Getting my tire replaced is 60$
Also got regular bills on the way.

I've got writing mojo stirred up and am getting a Patreon going, but that's unlikely to pay off before the donut fails

Been cleaning up my home the last few days. Already threw out several really large trashbags full of stuff I don't need. Like, five 120 liter bags full of stuff I don't need already at the least, and at a glance I'm only halfway done. Waiting for the industrial-strength 300+ liter bags to arrive before I finish up the cleanup.

I also reorganized my manga collection, re-purposed some shelves and finally most of my books are on a shelf now instead of being a human-sized mountain of paper. That's just manga though, I still have a small pile fo regular books I honestly have no idea where to put, but hopefully I'll figure something out soon enough.

Always curious on how normal people amass so many belongings throughout their lives. Five years ago I made a flippant statement that all evidence of my existence could fit in one backpack, later testing had it (mostly) accurate - and five years on still is. Yet family members can somehow amass entire wardrobes (or even whole rooms) of belongings, some of those they still use very regularly (thus not considered clutter).

How do humans use, or even keep track of, so many items?
