Nothing comes to mind.

"If instead of 3 wishes, a genie granted you 20 wishes, would one of your wishes still be infinite wishes?"

What would be the downside of that?

I guess like if you had 20 wishes i'd think you could make life baller enough to not need infinite wishes

That's probably true, but then why wouldn't you include the infinite wishes glitch if not expressly prohibited? Not least because with infinite wishes you wouldn't be as likely to squander them on purely selfish purposes.

Have you ever found a baby squirrel or baby bird that fell out of a tree?

Maybe some birds, but usually by the time they are falling out they're about ready to fly, and so they just sit there for a while and eventually fly off.

I have bare-handed two birds that got caught in the office building due to curiosity and a revolving door. Both were Carolina Wrens. They were tired and disoriented which was the only reason I was able to catch them. Probably somewhat traumatizing for them, but I assume they made it after release.

We also had a squirrel on site for a few years which was missing a tail. Not sure whether it lost it to a hawk or another squirrel, but it was a little freaky. Didn't affect its ability to climb trees, but possibly its handling and acrobatic maneuvers. I also saw a squirrel biting the head off a cicada and eating it.

I see them trying to cross the road frequently, and I always hope they make it.

Last picked one up maybe two years ago?

You dealt with any extraordinarily large bees/wasps nests before?

Size of nests unknown, as they were underground, but I have exterminated two yellow jacket nets in recent years with inverted glass bowls over the entrance and exit hole(s). In one case, there were multiple hundreds of dead wasps accumulated under the bowl. It was good because it was free, I didn't get any stings, and I didn't poison anything or set myself on fire.

Do you kill them if you see them?

Generally no, but we did this time because of proximity to the house and young children being around. Sorry, snake.

Have you ever thought about getting rain barrels to collect water? Like those systems they make that connect to gutters etc?

Is it actually bad to flush or wash meds down the drain?

I think you meant that for ChatGPT.

But maybe the answer depends on whether you have a septic tank or sewer service.

A prescription drug take-back day would be the preferred option.

This could be a funny horror sequel to obsession.

If you could choose one power tool to take back with you to the Roman empire days what would you choose? And how would you change the world with it? The tool is magical in the sense that it will never break, or need repairs, or run out of battery, or dull.

I have not voted yet. I vote on Election Day when it's not COVID because the polling station is three doors down from my house in a low-population community, and I just walk there any never have to wait. Early voting would actually take more work.

On the question about tools, how are we defining that? It it limited to handheld tools for a single operator? Or is an excavator a power tool?

I'm not limiting it, except to say it should be a single tool....or something sold in a package, I.e., a circular saw + the blades

I guess a large excavator, then.

Or a Dremel tool with all the attachments.

I'll have to think about use cases, but there would be many.
