    Everett local rats so small, so tiny

    As a human whos done interviews i wanna offer input on the tweet i saw being shared that says to start swearing if you see like a fascist being interviewed so you spoil the audio

    Can confirm, will ruin the audio, if its completely disrupting the interviewee and not like, between their sentences or something. U gotta make sure they cant bleep or cut you out without also taking the interview audio with it

    However playing copyrighted music was suggested and ime, not an issue unless you are Blaring it and making the person inaudible/unintelligible. Mileage may vary, i did a placement at a radio station so we paid license fees or whatev for our music, maybe that means we didnt have to worry about music in the background

    You can also just start shouting or doing noisy stuff, if it would be a struggle to hear or understand the person then they pretty much cant use the interview

    (Eta: this goes for crowd noise too, like if u all just are Loud then it sucks trying to hear over that)

    And in case youre very literal like me, the tweet says if u see them "handing (whoever) the mic" but ime the reporter(s) can just be holding the mic up to them (because i guess a lot of people dont know how to handle a mic, or they want to keep control of the mic in case the person wants to fillibuster or something)

    I thought I didn't like pea-flour pasta but I've had cravings for it a couple of times and it's okay now. Yay, another way to get me to eat greens!

    I noticed certain herbal teas quench my thirst better than water does. Probably because they taste of something so I feel more satisfied? This happen to other people too?

    Similar to me, yeah. Not necessarily tea, but if I find something tasty it's more likely to quench my thirst than water?

    Works better for me with cold tea, but yeah. I feel a lot more satisfied than with just straight water. Aloe drinks as well work for that, especially the melon flavors.

    Oh yeah, definitely seconded re: cold tea working better there, at least personally. My dad makes mint iced tea during the summer and it's about the most thirst-quenching shit I've ever imbibed.

    Hot fennel tea for me! And sometimes chamomile. Mmm. Fizzy drinks have the same effect but I've cut those down a lot since I started my health kick.

    Hot tea doesn't do as much for me thirst-wise, and I have no idea why.

    Fennel tea sounds heavenly though.

    I know if a drink has more electrolyte-y things in them they can be actually quenchier than plain water?? That’s why sports drinks and coconut water are better hangover helps than just water n such. Dunno if tea necessarily has those elements tho

    Something of substance, or like, a bot?

    I didn’t even know there could be bots on a ps4, but I think it is. All the message said was “yo”

    @Acey I do highly recommend you try it! Be warned it's a diuretic, though.
