Always question all authorities because the authority you don't question is the most dangerous... except me, never question me.

I would like a quilt but the weather is still a bit warm. I came across one in a tortilla pattern that would let you sleep as snug as a burrito.

I don't know about all weighted blankets, but this one didn't make me too warm.

I might try to get one. I have a bit more sparring gear to lay hands on first though.

Silly me. I thought blankets were sparring gear.

I think that depends on whether you want to look at your training partner or not.

Whats on my mind tonight?  This kid.  She is cherub who is so much more than a 16 year old little girl.  She is articulate charming, and dynamic.  May the FSM bless the Vikings.

I'm not sure about your wording as to her being more than a mere girl.  Many sixteen year old girls are articulate, charming and dynamic. I do agree that she is bloody awesome though. I suspect others aren't going to see what we do, they won't be using the words articulate and charming, it'll be ones like shrill and hysterical.

I saw the Global climate strike in Sydney on Friday, 80,000 attendees.
Of course our prime minister asshole doesn't approve such behaviour.

So when I first joined the forum, I was super paranoid that some internet crazy would find out who I was and come murder me or something. So the most logical thing to do was to tell everyone that I was from Sweden. Because that makes total sense?????

Obviously, I threw all paranoia out the window when I actually flew to England to meet some of the Internet crazies.

It still haunts me to this day.

I feel I've been robbed.
Your story seemed so much more interesting with the taken from civilised Sweden to live in barbaric USA basis.
I never totally believed though, I still think you could be a male, 52ish by now, Texan and a truck driver, though maybe banned from driving by now.
The telltale signs are there if you look.
Take my advice, don't listen to me.
