Banner ImageFall is the season on the lakefront in Barrie, Ontario. A photographer in a yellow jacket sits under a reddish dynamic sculpture. New construction is visible in the background. Blue sky with scattered white clouds. The lake is reflecting the blue sky.
TootsToots disappear like tears in the rain. However it takes a while. So I got that going for me at least.
In #Babylon5 alcohol is highly toxic to the Minbari. We know there were ground assaults on human colony worlds. Did the Minbari ever get into a building clearing situation in a distillery only to be forced out after a still blew up?

Was running errands while visiting family, saw this, and thought you might like it.

i did not know about the hand signal for help me, and my stupid ass thought she was flirting.

The Signal for Help (or the Violence at Home Signal for Help) is a single-handed gesture that can be used over a video call or in person by an individual to alert others that they feel threatened and need help.[1] Originally, the signal was created as a tool to combat the rise in domestic violence cases around the world linked to self-isolation measures that were related to the COVID-19 pandemic.[2]

The signal is performed by holding one hand up with the thumb tucked into the palm, then folding the four other fingers down, symbolically trapping the thumb by the rest of the fingers.[3] It was designed intentionally as a single continuous hand movement, rather than a sign held in one position, so it could be made easily visible.

The Signal for Help was created by the Canadian Women's Foundation and introduced on April 14, 2020.[4] It soon spread via the TikTok social video platform and was adopted by the international Women's Funding Network (WFN). It received widespread praise from Canadian[5] and international[6][7] news organizations for helping provide a modern solution to the issue of a rise in domestic violence cases.

One day you wake up and all of a sudden YOU’RE the crazy lady down the street. There’s nothing you can do about it. What’s done is done. Just roll with it.

Anyway, I’m in the category of men who had no idea this was a thing until I read this article.
