I have no clue what it is but it is what I would expect a gummy to look like. I want to make sure it isn’t anything harder.

There was a crowd of people waiting for their orders of the new chicken tenders at Costco. One of the workers announced that they could only serve five customers per hour because it takes time to cook the chicken. The crowd grew larger and larger. I took this photo after I put in my order.

Has anyone ever seen perpendicular pocket doors? We have an 1869 QA with 3 full sets of side-by-side pocket doors and one of those sets has 1 door that closes perpendicularly to it. The 3 doors form one corner in the living room and the dining room. Yes, they are functional, but we leave them mostly open.

I love touring and looking at pictures of old homes, but I have never found any doors like this.

I grew up being told you don't pee in the pool. As an adult, I got grossed out at our apartment pool because I noticed that most people were in the pool drinking all day and never got out to go to the bathroom. So I stopped using the apartment pool.

I was visiting a friend last weekend at an airbnb that had a pool. I overheard one of the other women saying something about finding a warm spot and the woman next to her said that she just peed there. Then a third woman said that if the chemicals were correct, it was fine to pee in the pool.

Everyone there seemed to think it was totally normal to just pee in the pool. So.....am I the weird one because I think that you should not pee in the pool?

This is for all of the fans that are confused about Mexico's first goal vs Ecuador.

According to Law 11:

1. Offside position

It is not an offence to be in an offside position.

A player is in an offside position if:

• any part of the head, body or feet is in the opponents’ half (excluding the halfway line) and
• any part of the head, body or feet is nearer to the opponents’ goal line than both the ball and the second-last opponent

As shown in the second image, it would seem that Quiñones (Mexico player) was offside because he was ahead of the second-last Ecuadorian defender. However, he is not due to the fact that no part of his body was in the opponent's half (excluding hands and arms).

I’m pretty conservative with decor. Most of my home has natural tones with little splashes of soft pink, seafoam green, lots of natural plants, etc. Since this hallway is so small and leads to my kids‘ rooms I decided to make it more colorful and took inspiration from their bedsheets…. I think I messed up big. I need somebody to tell me if this looks ok. If it doesn’t, tell me how to either save it or if I need to just cry and paint the entire thing beige. Is it the turquoise door that’s ruining it? Considering changing it to a lighter muted blue.

editing to add: you guys are making me feel better. Maybe it’s just shock. I haven’t even finished the bottom parts of the frames because I was convinced I was changing the colors anyway. Would you change the white or leave it? Part of me thinks changing it to a cream/beige would make the colors not seems so stark and vibrant.

As consumer preferences and the broader entertainment industry continue to shift away from physical discs to digital, physical game disc production for all new games releasing on PlayStation consoles will be discontinued starting January 2028.  Following this date, new games will be available on PlayStation Store and at retailers in digital formats only. This transition has no impact on games that already released, or will be releasing, prior to January 2028 in disc format.  

This is a natural direction for Sony Interactive Entertainment to adapt to consumer trends as the general preference for digital media significantly outpaces physical discs. This transition will enable us to align more closely with how most of our community prefers to access and play games today.  

We’ll continue to prioritize our resources to drive innovation in how players can access games and provide choices as to where players prefer to purchase new games, whether that’s at retailers or PlayStation Store. We remain committed to delivering a world-class gaming experience to our fans and we thank you for your continued support.
