That’s reassuring, thank you. She has agreed to do a couple sessions of couples therapy with me after we move in to help establish a solid foundation for living together and get used to communication before there’s anything stressful to communicate about.
She’s coming from a household with pretty garbage communication styles so I’m hoping it helps her reset so to speak and get a fresh start.

A bit nervous. I bought a house with my long distance girlfriend of two years, we move in this coming Friday. We had multiple visits (some months long), and the house is like 92% in my name with an exit strategy for me to buy her out if we split so I’m not jumping in blindly or anything but I was ready to try something more serious.
I should be happy and excited, I worked damn hard and saved for years but I’m mostly just worried that since we both work from home it’ll be too much of a good thing. I’m assuming it’s mostly the stress of getting the house and all the paperwork and crap but it’s still an important worry to work through. I hope you guys are hanging in there, all the best.

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say some fat people my surprise you with their strength. They throw around more weight quite often, it’s stamina that’s lacking. A single, forceful attack is believable to me.

We didn’t start the fire comes to mind. Things have always been crazy, welcome to life since the dawn of society as we know it.

A young salmon swims downriver searching for an ocean he has never seen. Eventually the riverbanks give way to a vast blue expanse. He approaches the first fish he sees and asks them where he might find the ocean. The other fish replies “You’re in it!” The salmon shakes his head. “This? This is water. I’m looking for the ocean!”
The character building and customization never ends, but it’s also not something that has to be a burden. The way school and such introduces things like reading and learning or physical activity is sometimes very damaging because it gives you this impression that these things have to be work, that it’s all about deadlines and what you can get out of them instead of enjoying them for the sake of the thing.
Suffice it to say if you’re waiting to one day start your life and become who you want to be you’re missing the point. The journey is supposed to be the focus, don’t wait to start living for some lofty time you’re allowed to begin building the life you want. Start the journey for it now and find passions to savor along the way. Life doesn’t begin at 20, 30, or even 40, you just get different content so you might as well make the most of the fleeting window to enjoy the things that make life at your age special.
A long ramble, but I hope it conveys my point. Good luck!

No clear evolutionary path in the fossil record.
…for the creatures that have no bones and only a beak that could even fossilize? Color me SHOCKED their ancestors didn’t leave fossils.

No, that would be an orgy, Oregano is something cultivated involving the use of fertilizers or pesticides that are strictly of animal or vegetable origin.
