They cut out a square through most of the pages with an exacto knife. The last few pages they cut an X for the stake to punch through.

Well actually...

I've never liked these kinds of attitudes, both against men and women. From the "wife bad" boomer mindset to the toxic "all men are pigs" that I hear people say way too often.

People are people. When it comes to the people I care about, I don't care what you identify as. I don't care what society thinks your "role" should be. You are a person just like I am. I'll treat you the same as I do any other person I care about, because that's what you deserve.

I'll see you as the individual you are instead of these useless preconceived notions based purely on what bits you have in your pants.

Not a squishmallow, but I can highly recommend a dakimakura body pillow, especially if you get their heaviest variety. They sell the pillow by itself and plain covers. They are a bit on the pricey side, but it was worth it for me.

It's heavy, it's long, and it's so heavenly squishy. Best cuddly pillow.

I loved to hug mine, but it was a bit too big for the weird way I sleep. I ended up buying two normal sized pillow covers/cases and splitting the filling between the two. Now I have two heavenly squishy pillows (that are a bit smaller)

1000°c seems accurate:

Fun little science fact: Heated objects glow the same colors no matter what they are made of. It's called Black Body Radiation. The color chart shows what temperatures correspond with various "colors" of glow.

It's a legit quote by him from a now deleted forum post on his website:

“The recent incident at the tennis match has caused a disproportionate online uproar. It’s all about the famous hat, of course. Yes, I took it. Yes, I did it quickly. But as I’ve always said, life is first come, first served,” he claimed.

“In the end, chin up, hats off, less venom, more sportsmanship.”

The joke comes from how colors are mixed. Red and white will always make pink but green and blue make different colors depending on if you're adding or subtracting colors.

Additive color (RGB) is when you shine red green and blue flashlights at a wall. If all three meet, you get white light.

Subtractive color (CMY) is where you add pigments to a surface that absorb certain colors. Adding cyan, magenta, and yellow pigments results in a black surface since all light gets absorbed. (Normally it's CMYK for printing where K is black so you can get deeper blacks)
