By the time I got there, they were out.

I posted this here because the shower thought was "if I google something that uses reddit as a source, doesn't that lose traffic for reddit?" But then I thought deeper and was wondering if it would send a bit to reddit and find out, or if it already had and it's giving me a review of something the AI already had and was just giving me a link to the source?

Maybe I should've posted in ELI5. I dunno, if this doesn't belong here just let me know or delete it.

When I first saw the thumbnail I thought the dog on the left was breathing fire.

After years of wondering, going back and forth, and putting it off, I've finally got an appointment set up to get evaluated. I set the appointment about two weeks ago and it's tomorrow, I even did all the paperwork already! Is there anything I should know, or consider going in?

Update: Well I got a diagnosis. I have ADHD, and he's sending his recommendation med to my PCP. It's weird that it has to go through them, right? I figured a therapist could prescribe meds. Also he added that I have "highly impulsive" ADHD. Is it normal to add the qualifier? I mean, he's not wrong, but are there categories?

Anybody ever entered a random draw and just kinda felt like they were going to win? I go to gun shows and usually just look, as I'm generally fairly satisfied with my coverage of firearms to defend me and my family from right wing psychos and the coming shit show. But there was a raffle for a .50 barrett. And I bought a few tickets. And for some reason, I feel like it's already mine. Like I feel like I'm going to win it. I've only gotten this feeling once before, and I did wind up winning the $1000. Anybody else have that happen? I hate going to these things and trying to play nice with these people, but if they're armed, I need to be as well. I dunno, I just feel like it's already mine and just need to wait for confirmation.

Pulled into work sitting in my car jamming out under a severe thunderstorm warning, heard what sounded like a train. Oh fuck. Tornado! Then I see the train in my rearview. Oh, right. 🤦🏼‍♂️

Woke up to pee and smelled it and now I'm too excited for the morning to go back to sleep.

So my kid is super into cars as I am. My mom wants to give him her old 2004 Celica GTS for his birthday in a few months as kind of something for him to work on, and save up to fix up. I'm for the idea, as he doesn't have much drive despite him being a hard working kid. So far, he does work hard to make money but he wastes it on candy. He has the drive but not any goal. He loves cars and is into fixing them up. Granted, he's not old enough to drive yet, but that's the idea. Giving him a car that he can care for and fixing it up, while he has time to do work, and learn will give him something that will give him an idea of the value of money and work. He has the work ethic, he just needs the goals and value understanding.

My question is what should be the important things to work on first? I understand rust is an issue, it's sat for maybe 6 years or so and has some body rust above the rear wheels. Beyond rust, is there something that's a quick and easy upgrade? This will be something that will be presents for his birthday/Christmas for several years getting upgraded as he won't be able to drive it for a few years. He has been asking about it for a few years and will want it to be comparative to my MX-5 that's about to get supercharged. Hes such a hard working kid that loves cars enough that he might manage to make it faster than mine but I don't know enough about Toyotas to know what should be done in what order so that he's got a good ride when he's able to drive it.

Any experienced Toyota people able to help?

I'm so proud of em, haha!

Welp that'll be another year or so.
