even if someone WAS just lazy and simply didn't want to do anything but lie on the couch and watch tv, they should still have these things. it's irrelevant whether some people aren't actually lazy because everyone, including hypothetical lazy people, should have their basic needs met.

if we have the resources to do it, there is no defense of letting people die because they don't want to work, and much less because they can't.

Names...

It's funny how some names survive when others don't.

Wirt and Auggie (my OCs) going on a lil evening stroll after finishing their mail route early :3

'Conifers have long passed their heyday in the Glaciocene, when large forests of taiga covered enormous swathes of the northernmost continents. Yet, today, in a world greatly warmed and very different, some species remain quite successful: even in places the opposite of what most of their forebearers once dominated.

The millennium flycone (Desolopinaceus aerogermus) is one such species that, conversely, thrives in the arid deserts of equatorial Arcuterra, where adaptations such as waxy needles that prevent moisture loss and deep-boring roots that can dig deep for groundwater help it survive in the harsh, dry conditions and nutrient-poor soils. Coupled with its slow growth and low metabolism, flycone trees can live not only hundreds, but even thousands of years, making them some of the oldest and longest-lived individual organisms on the planet.

Its most remarkable adaptation, however, is the way it spreads its seeds: not just parachutes or spinners, they are equipped with aerodynamic wing-shaped extensions that make them efficient miniature hang gliders: in a strong wind, they can launch from their pinecones and travel many meters beyond their parent tree, and, when riding on thermal updrafts in the hot summer air, can extend that distance to kilometers. The lucky few that land somewhere they can safely take root eventually establish themselves and begin to slowly grow once the seasonal rains arrive, and, barring disease, erosion, or damage by herbivorous animals, may continue to do so for several thousand years to come.'

So today I tripped. Fell flat on my face, it was awful but ultimately harmless. My service dog, however, is trained to go get an adult if I have a seizure, and he assumed this was a seizure (were training him to do more to care for me, but we didn’t learn I had epilepsy until a year after we got him)

I went after him after I had dusten off my jeans and my ego, and I found him trying to get the attention of a very annoyed woman. She was swatting him away and telling him to go away. So I feel like I need to make this heads up

If a service dog without a person approaches you, it means the person is down and in need of help
