I immediately thought rattler. I’ve run across a few diamondbacks.

Pretty sure Nextdoor is the correct place to post when there is someone or something with dark skin in the neighborhood.

I’m not a baseball fan. Grew up in Mesa AZ, where the Cubs had spring training at Rendezvous Park. My entire neighborhood was was nuked from orbit by the city, taking out the park too. The area has mostly remained undeveloped ever since. Decades.
Damn, I remember those water towers very clearly. And we used to go swimming at the public pool beyond left field.

Inspiration for the pool in the Diamondbacks outfield, maybe?
Ha. Doubt it, but I don’t know. We’d walk there in our bare feet and have to run from one patch of weeds or grass to the next so as not to get burned. The elementary school was across the road on the left field side. Sometimes foul balls would land in the street and a player would come out to retrieve it.

Was watching a YouTube video earlier (well, listening with the phone in my pocket).
Ad break had two advertisements. First was some lawyer or class action suit saying you may be eligible for compensation from the sportsbooks, something about people looking at how the apps get you to continue to bet money with them.
Second ad was for Draftkings.

I would have quit youtube a bit before covid if they didn’t let you pay to have zero ads, that’s how much the ads trigger me
Instead, 7 years later and my addiction to it has reached unfathomable depths

Giving them the benefit of the doubt, there are a fair number of snakes that look similar to one another, and some are harmless while others that look very similar are quite dangerous. The coloring pattern on this one isn’t too different from a gray rat snake, an eastern hognose snake, or a bull snake. The giveaway on this one is the big-ass, triangular head that bulges out from its neck, a hallmark of venomous snakes, but not everyone knows that (and there are exceptions, coral snakes are deadly but don’t have triangular heads like that, and pythons aren’t venomous but do).
Tomorrow is Groundhog Day.

I like most of the male looks. They’re generally silly, but that’s ok as they’re generally not unflattering which is the greatest sin of all (have watched a lot of Devil Wears Prada so I’m well versed)

I may at some point been in the vicinity of someone wearing Prada but have never done so myself. I didn’t vote as I have no basis for doing so. However I will say this Olivia Dean person is very attractive.
