Incredible. I just saw Star Trek: The Voyage Home in theatres this week and he looks and sounds nearly exactly the same.
I am sure the money helps but it is impressive, especially considering he survived cancer at the same time as his daughter and went to space a few years ago.
I used chamomile honey vanilla bags steeped in half water half milk and poured over a scoop of french vanilla. You can use almond milk and nondairy ice cream and it also is so good. Just have to use like double or so the tea you'd use for water for more flavor and steep it for longer.
So like I told you guys last week I sent out the message to the musician who is much more known as an actor like he had three seasons of a show and has been in some pretty big movies, but did not get a response so far to be fair. It’s only been a day and a half but it’s just like it’s just so frustrating because, like why saying yes to something and like send the file just to go silent after I sent the assembly cut I know it’s very much problem but I’m just a little frustrated and confused
I have ants in my kitchen and for the life of me can't figure out where they're coming from as there are no doors or windows or entryways in my kitchen. I'm on a first floor apartment and I think maybe they're coming up from the floorboards?
Idk it's so upsetting because I keep my place clean, I vacuum and sweep and mop regularly, I don't keep food out, I wipe off surfaces daily, I keep everything in my pantry in airtight containers.
This has been an issue since as long as I've been here - the day I got keys I noticed ants before even moving my stuff in but still it makes me feel so gross. I have no clue what to do. I get it under control for a while and then they always return.
I've tried those terro traps, I know it's supposed to bring poison back to the nest and kill them all but they've never seemed to work and all it results in has trails and trails of ants trapsing across my kitchen.
I'm so over it I almost want to move because of it but can't really afford to. Sorry for the long winded rant I just needed to vent and praying someone has solutions. I know it's trivial but it's taking a real toll on me mentally😭

u/KanwicI'm sorry Etsy Witches, I wasn't familiar with your game1h ago
Have you been having rain recently? I’m in a desert state, and the short summer rainy season always drives outdoor bugs in. This year it’s been mostly crickets, but I’ve had temporary ants before, and all I can do is wait them out and keep clean enough that they don’t move in permanently. For me it’ll be over in a few weeks.
Watched the Pitt purely to watch Shawn Hatosy in something and the second season is really just 911 memes (increasingly strange disasters), recent events (like ICE officers) and Noah Wyle writing himself a hero arc back to back to back.
But I weirdly miss it? Like I expect to comeback to it sooner rather than later. And I probably will, since season 3 is about the night shift or so I've heard. But I watched the show because I wanted to write an au about Abbott becoming a werewolf ✌🏻
I would like to announce that I have now passed the point of no return and am full-tilt crushing hard on Ayo Edebiri. I got suggested her Criterion Closet visit and that did it. So don't mind me, I'll just be planning our wedding, RSVPs will go out soon.
I want to give the non-functional fireplace in my house a makeover, because I've decided, after 4.5 years of living here, that I can no longer stand the choices that whoever flipped the place made. However, this is going to involve painting brick (which I've never done) and possibly using peel and stick wallpaper or tiles (which I know to be a pain in the ass), both of which would be done while having a very hyper and curious 5 month old kitten running around. Wish me luck!
