āELOPING PAIR'S DREAM WRECKED BY LOCAL POLICE,ā Owen Sound Sun Times.Ā March 13, 1933. Page 1.Ā ---- Kincardine Man Stole Funds Necessary to Get Married ---- Love's young sweet dream was rudely interrupted by the intervention of a blue-coated policeman and today Ivan Holloway, 21, and Julia Hunter, 20, both of Kincardine, are wondering whether or not they were wise in trying to elope in these times of depression.Ā
It was on Friday that Holloway was alleged to have stolen the sum of $50 from his mother in Kincardine and eloped with Miss Hunter to Owen Sound. They were driven to this city by motor and were on their way to the parsonage when the law, in the form of Chief Carson, appeared on the scene. It is not the business of the law to stop the love-lorn, but when money. alleged to have been stolen, is involved. It is too bad.Ā
At any rate the law had been informed of the matter and Holloway was arrested and placed in the lock- up. The girl returned to Kincardine on Saturday, her dreams shattered. The boy, disillusioned, returned Monday in the custody of Chief of Police Smith of Kincardine, to be faced with a charge of theft.

As a former horse girl I love the Binghorses drawn by @meltedmush because every weird and cryptid suggestion and art of them just existing makes me stop and go: no wait horses will just do that. Horses are so weird. Horse behavior is so much
Horses will just stare at you through a window and if they're smart they can figure out certain doors. There is a specific kind of surreal of watching a horse walk into your house that is both very cute and cursed. SQQ could totally wake up to a Binghorse having broken into his house and staring at him
Horses also are weird and poorly designed biologically so if they sit for too long they can actually crush their organs and won't be able to stand up again. So I can see SQQ fretting over a bingfoal and asking if they're okay. Also they don't have the ability to sense being full. It is completely possible for a horse to eat too much and die. So again fretting mother hen SQQ planning special Binghorse diet only for Binghorse to come back and drop a dead bird in front of him.
It is completely plausible that SQQ can look up one day and see a binghorse sitting in a tree. Both cows and horses will climb trees. Goats too. I don't know why. They just will. The horse loose in a hospital bit is funny because horses on their own will just do that. They do just end up in places. It feels absurd but it's true. Getting jumped scared by a Binghorse totally believable.
Imagine that SQQ sees a Binghorse with a broken leg! The death knell of any normal horse. He can frett over those beautiful terribly designed legs as Binghorse is kept suspended in a swing thing.
And then the moment you combine omnivore snatch hunter it gets even funnier because I'm certain a real horse would if it could. The fact that people are in any way convinced horses are just cute and sweet and not weird terrifying little horrors of biology will never not be funny.
#svsss#binghorse#for the record i learned horseback riding from a poly couple who worked ren fair as a kid#and like it was so weird#SO WEIRD#like watching a 2 year old black clydsdale horse just walk into a horse on its own accord and just steal a coke can will never leave me#like imagine being 9 and seeing a juvenile horse that is still 3x your height squeezing through a screen door#i brought this up with my mom about the horse breaking into a house and she said he was actually a friesian#absolutely beautiful and a complete brat#also the willingness of horses to just be covered in dirt and dust#youll clean a horse ride for 2 hrs let em loose and come back to them covered in mud and grime#my mom and i went on a whole journey to remember this horses name#it was soujke. he was such an ass#im imaging sqq doing hoof cleanings for binghorse#and brushing his skin pelt before and after a ride#soujke was so much. he almost died of collick because he kept laying on his side#horses are so dumb

I donāt know what young person with their own laptop/computer/whatever device for the first time needs to hear this but:
Get yourself a goddamn password notebook. Label the pages alphabetically. Add your important log-in information, passwords, etc. Put the notebook in your underwear drawer and sleep easy knowing that if your device is stolen, trashed, or bricked, you will not spend three hours manually recreating new passwords or accounts.
This has been a PSA.
#ra speaks#personal#computers#technology#growing up ma and dad had a password book that had everything from AAA membership info to webkinz accounts.#I got my own laptop and moved out and BAM. I didnāt know my passwords for anything and the computer didnāt have them saved so I had to call#my mom and get her to look em up in the notebook. made my own the next day and been cruising smooth ever since.#ābwahhh but what if someone steals it?ā I mean that would suck but if someone is being so thorough as to steal a password notebook from#from you underwear drawer they probably took your SS card and birth certificate and more important things#than your webkinz account information.

sometimes it can be fun to consider what ppl would be doing in a non-apocalypse AU but also i look at some characters like thereās no way. like look at deacon. donāt make him get a job
#i only bring this up bc the passing thought of bunny/nate divorce and her remarrying deacon#and deacon being like stereotypical stepdad/your momās new boyfriend made me laugh#like unfortunately canonically thereās no fruit snacks for deacon to steal from shaun

I work as the person in an amusement park who watches the children who get lost. Hereās some advice. This also applies to any mentally disabled adults that are under your care. Keep in mind that many places will not look for a minor ages 13-17 unless it is close to closing or they are disabled, as corporate considers it a strain on resources and employee use.
1. Teach them your phone number. Best gift you can give them. Iām not supposed to have my phone out at work but I can cut down dependentās being-lost-time by probably 400% if I can contact you. It also assures the children That We Are Doing Something and that They Are Helpful and Smart. If your dependent has a poor memory, apparently writing your phone number in sharpie and then covering it in nail polish makes it stay all day, even if theyāre sweaty or getting in the water. I havenāt tested this but Iāve heard a lot of moms recommend it. Iāve also seen bracelets with little plates or the beads saying the phone number.
Addendum: your dependent may tell you that they know your phone number, but they actually only know your passcode. True story. This summer has been a lot better, but last summer exactly one child the entire season knew his momās phone number.
2. Acknowledge that dependentās memories are faulty, especially in new places. If you tell them to meet you in X spot or that your stuff is all in Y place, they may not remember where it is or remember how to get there.
3. All dependents, but especially little ones, have shit time sense. They might find your stuff, wait there for a minute or two, and truly believe that theyāve been there for an hour. Half the small kids that are brought to me are ones who *know* where their stuff is, but havenāt seen an adult they know personally in 5 minutes, so theyāre going to panic.
4. Donāt take naps!!! And donāt let your dependent go anywhere you canāt go or at least go where you catch them at the end!!! Yes youāre staring at the play structure your dependent entered, but can you see them? No? Then thereās a good chance they went elsewhere. So many of the littler kids that are brought to me are brought by genuine, good-hearted strangers who see lost children and take them by the hand. Away from the spot youāre napping in front of/staring vaguely at.
5. This might just be something from my work, but we will not call dependentās descriptions over the loudspeaker. This is because if an asshole were to see your dependent, hear the description, know itās a lost dependent, and decide to steal it, they can then use the excuse, āI know where your guardian is! Come with me!ā And then lead them out of the park or toss the dependent over their shoulder. Do you know how many crying and screaming dependents leave the location every day? A lot!!! Weāre a fun location!!! Weāre not going to know if the dependent is screaming because they donāt want to leave or if a stranger is taking them away. We might call the description over the loudspeaker if itās past closing time and the dependent still isnāt found. But before that, we will only report it over secure radios across the park.
6. Tell a park worker right away. Preferably someone with a radio. Even if you spot the dependent within the next minute, that means the dependent will have less being-lost time. Especially if we already have the dependent with, you guessed it, me. Also please tell us when you find the dependent.
7. Take a picture of your depdendent at the start of the day! That way security guards can have a good idea of what to look for. One mother told me her daughter was blonde and showed me a picture. Her hair color looked brown to me, but then I knew what to look for in the crowd.
8. Keep at least one person in your group in one spot at all times, especially if you donāt have access to your phone or forgot to give out your phone number to the guards. That way they can find you if they pick up the dependent. If you are the only person in your group, then PLEASE stay in one place or at least stay with ONE security guard. It sucks for the dependent if they canāt find you right away even if the both of you are looking for each other and a guard is helping them. You are NOT helping if you panic and run around. And keep your goddamn phone on you and answer calls from unknown numbers!!!!! God. This is a good time to do that.
9. If you lose your dependent in an attraction like the lazy river at a water park, and you have that ONE person staying in place, then this is what you can do with 1+ mobile people.
A. If only one person can be spared to be mobile, have them pick a spot and stay right there, watching the river go by. Eventually, if the dependent is in the river, theyāll go by.
B. If you have two people that can be mobile, both start at the same place in the river and go opposite directions. If you meet up again without spotting the dependent, well, theyāre not there.
C. If you have more than 2 people, you can do B but also station different adults at the lazy river entrances/exits.
10. Donāt blame the dependent! Even if they ran away and/or are pissy that youāre upset once you all reunite, trust me, thereās a 99% chance theyāre upset too. Yes, this is a good time to have a serious conversation with them. Yes, if this is a repeated problem, and/or you warned them youād leave the park if this occurred, you should not back down. But also - theyāre dependents. Theyāre not stupid, and they should be told consequences and dangers so they can make good decisions, but they will never have the adult/guardian perspective that you do. Be kind.
Also please for my sake teach them if theyāre brought to someone like me, that itās THEIR job to be safe and listen to me while us park workers look for you. Itās YOUR job to find the dependent, not the dependentās job to find you. I had a six year old little girl genuinely toddler-howl at me because she wanted to go look for her mom. Iāve never before heard a kid her age howl like that. I can trick kids out of crying 9/10 times but howling came as a surprise lmao. I think I can manage it now that Iāve experienced it but damn.
Also make sure those kids are DRINKING. Being in a water park is NOT the same as drinking water. They should be drinking every 15 minutes at LEAST, I am NOT kidding.
Also if I call you to tell you your kid is here, please donāt call or text me back after you have the kid. Iām sure other places have phones for these types of things but the only one I have is my personal phone. And I am happy to get the kid off my hands and into your arms, but Iām using my personal phone so plz. Donāt call me back. Absolutely call me if you need directions to my āofficeā in the park. Donāt call or text me after. I have stories about that hoo boy but this post is already long.
#I am not exaggerating when I say howling#not in a wolf way more like a howler monkey if you have no idea what human toddler cries sound like#I like kids of all ages but thereās a reason why#Iām not going to teach elementary school#I am the person in the *place I work* where if a kid is lost#the staff brings the kid to me until the parents are found#so like. Iām never going to see these kids at their best#I wish I could just hug them but Iām barely allowed to hold their hand if Iām escorting them to get water#this time of year their emotions are heightened by the fact that theyāre almost certainly dehydrated#but if theyāre a flight risk I do NOT want to risk losing the kid#so I have to wait until#a coworker comes by to get them some water sometimes#the howler girl = this kid#this kid was reunited with her mom without too much time going by thank god#she was a huge fucking flight risk omg#she desperately wanted to go find her mom and Iām like#GIRL you are the lost six year old ITS YOUR MOMāS JOB TO FIND YOU!!! Your job is to stay safe!!!#and color this pretty picture oh god please look back at the coloring page instead of calling upon the hounds of hell#I like to assure every kid that is brought to me that#1. momās (or whoever) not going to leave without you (sometimes this is a lie judging from the parents.still very important to tell kids thi#2. they did the right thing asking for an adultās help#3. as they are literally a kid itās not their fault theyāre lost (again a little debatable with the older kids but still theyāre minors)(so#I tell them all this)#4. itās their job to stay safe while we find your mom#5. now do you want some water?#itās more obvious in the pale kids but Iāve had so many Black and Brown kids come up to me the last couple days looking positively pink#those kids needed water. so I try to get everyone water#it pisses off my coworkers but idgaf. everyone has a legal right to water in this state esp in the summer#and even if they didnāt#fuck you Iām stealing it. these kids need water

The last living relative of the great Pinestar. As his granddaughter, and as an extremely talented young warrior, in her own right, great things are expected of Alpineknoll. Only time will tell if she will fulfill this presumed destiny, but thanks to the careful rearing and training of her grandmother, Graypelt, she shows great promise towards her destiny.
#I love her so much#righteous pines#clangen#clangen oc#lionās art#my art#pineclan#alpineknoll#sheās THE nepo-baby I ADORE her. Only time will tell who she will becomeā¦#For any curious her mother and father never existed in game#She just looks similar to Graypelt. Whom I have yet to post but believe me sheās coming soon! And also has the brown#Around the shade I imagined pine. So. I decided that her father was a loner (which is ok as long as itās basically just a sire situation-#(-in Pineclan. They hate cross clan relationships but loner clan relationships are more blurry. Because loners can be converted <3#Or simply ignored. Kept out of the territory#away from borders. But the other clansā¦ theyāll always be there. Trying to ruin those innocent kits with their poisonous rot#How dare they lead them astray? Thatās why thatās SO much worse. (To them)#Youāve let them steal your devotion away. Who are you really devoted to? Starclan? Or him?#Anyway! It was a sire situation so it was cool. Then her mom died like immediately in a battle with one of the other clans#Proooobably holly? Maybe spider since I actually do have someone playing for them#And grandma Graypelt raised her ever since. Mentored her too since she wasnāt her literal mother. Thatās allowed#And this pompous mean girl with a massive weight on her shoulders is the result!#warrior cats#warrior cats oc

I huge part of the disappointment surrounding Omegle shutting down for me, personally, is like now where am I supposed have the most unhinged roleplays ever with people who just barely understand the source material that I will literally never hear from again?
::Edit::
Didn't know I needed to say this but I am very much not actually looking for alternatives here, and no alternative you can give is going to match the unhinged energy omegle brought to the table
#I'm really just lamenting the end of an era#half the omegle appeal was seeing the most buck fucking wild shit you've ever read in your life from someone you will never see again#omegle btw was where I came across the guy who just vehemently refused to believe that ''Peridot'' was a thing outside Steven Universe#and was in fact a name you could give to your children irl#just fucking refused to believe that characters with the name Peridot could exist outside Steven Universe#according to this guy if you have a character named after a gemstone then you are stealing from Steven Universe#never mind your OC is fully human or even a fucking orc or an android or something#never mind your OC existed a solid decade before that show came out#they were automatically stolen from Steven Universe because they happened to be named after a gemstone in this guy's mind#I'm never gonna be able to stop thinking about that btw#like it was so unhinged lol#my deadname is a gemstone btw which is a huge part of *why* this came off as so unhinged to me haha#I was *15-years-old* when Steven Universe was released#but in this guy's mind my mom was somehow ripping off a show that wouldn't come out for 15 years when she had and named me

girl wtf you bake your own bread???? that sounds so hard
It's actually not hard! It takes a bit of arm strength and patience, that's all. Besides- it's lovely to make something and wear a cute apron. Mine has cat patterns on it :D
Baking in general is great. Cookies, cinnamon buns [actually made those yesterday too], cake, muffins, pretzels... and that's not even getting into cooking. I recently made my parents a breakfast and I had so much fun!!!! It was eggs [they were over-easy, I think is the term. It was my first time making eggs and I was so proud!], hashbrowns and bacon. Mom and dad loved them!!!!
But yeah- cooking and baking is so rewarding to me, and very calming too. I could spend all day in a kitchen just cooking all sorts of dishes, listening to music and seeing people enjoy it afterwards. I couldn't be a chef or baker though;;; I like going at my own pace far too much for that. BUT ANYWAY!!!! Please give cooking/baking a try, it's wonderful and rewarding. And you only get better with time!
#I know this is clichƩ but my family watches lots of food and cooking-related shows#Gordon Ramsay is a favourite!#But seeing him cooking#as well as watching my dad cook and hearing about my grandma's [my dad's mom's] baking#it just inspired me so much... I've been baking since I could hold a spoon but cooking is fairly new to me#I actually cooked and baked for a whole week once! It was all Gordon Ramsay recipes from his website#Mom said I was at risk of stealing dad's position as the cook of the house lmao#Teriyaki salmon was one of my favs.... fish and chips [altho gluten free because my mom has allergies] was great too#cooking chicken vindaloo is probably the most relaxing though. that or spicy butter chicken#we get the pre made sauce [KFI for butter chicken and Patak's for vindaloo] but I add like ginger/ garlic/ onion/ etc#and for spicy butter chicken I use two thai red chilis! perfect level of spice <3333 I make sure they're big ones#that's because the sauce dilutes the spice a bit#BUT ENOUGH RANTING I just love cooking and you adjust to your likes!!!#It's wonderful

notes on that piracy poll are insane.... 75 percent "its always okay" but every single comment* is "its always okay EXCEPT FOR indie creators/books/people who i like/if the wind is in the west/its a tuesday" i do not think you people know what always means
*save a comment from an indie creator saying 'yeah its fine do whatever. piracy is preservation'
#me not stealing groceries from mom n pops in uni didnt mean i gave them money it meant i didnt go to mom n pops#you guys dont password share dropout? telling me if you saw a book from an alive author at a thrift store youd shit your pants?#if you knew the kind of fees steam was charging your indie devs and the size of the cut they take youd hurl#also jesus. consider purchasing power disparity. consider library censorship and locationlocked services.#piracy is The Only Option to a SIGNIFICANT percent of the world and it is literally no different than having a friend over to watch a movie

discord is bogged down by so much fucking trash theyre trying to sell us that even when the servers arent actually crashing they still run like shit so they can constantly have animated ads and pop ups every time the desktop app updates begging you to pleasepleaseplease spend $10 every month for shit that should be included for free as is and then buy the extra animated frames for icons buy all of them please be a cool gamer for us were all gamers here haha poggers heres the worst app overhaul youve seen outside of tumblr in years
so sick of seeing once decent platforms get absolutely trashed to pieces by shitty intrusive advertising and horrible unintuitive updates done the sake of keeping you on the app longer and a lack of any real competitor. someone should buy out the kik app or something and wipe it clean of pedophiles and then strap it up with decent emojis and server structure if only so the name is recognizable and its already available on app stores
#would say some niche IM system but thats a pipe dream#wish some fucking underground master class IT nerds would steal pesterchum or some shit and trick it out with decent usability and#make it not absolute trash to use in 2023#itd be so funny please god#imagine your mom having to download pesterchum from the iOS app store to get in contact with you#setting her chum status to rancorous to tell you youre grounded lol#txt#an original#discord#discord down āā
