#drinking water companies

[biggest-gaudiest-patronuses]

putting my prediction on record now that the coming decade is going to see the rise of viral-marketed fancy at-home water filtration systems, driving and driven by a drastic reduction in the quality of U.S. tap water (given that we are in a 'replacement era' where our current infrastructure is reaching the end of its lifespan--but isn't being replaced). also guessing that by the 2030s access to drinkable tap water will be a mainstream class issue, with low-income & unstably housed people increasingly forced to rely on expensive bottled water when they can't afford the up-front cost of at-home filtration--and with this being portrayed in media as a "moral failing" and short-sighted "choice," rather than a basic failure of our political & economic systems. really hope i'm just being alarmist, but plenty of this already happens in other countries, and the U.S. is in a state of decline, so. here's praying this post ages into irrelevance. timestamped April 2023

So I made myself some maple syrup soda using one of these guys. It worked really well. Tastes a bit like a mapley-cream soda.

Except I don't think my body remembers how to handle carbonated beverages anymore because I took a single (delicious) sip, and now my whole chest is on fire.

How tf did I used to drink Irn Bru like water? I feel like I'm dying 😂

After turning in my End of Year review, I have determined that I need a raise. I have also determined that I'm not cut out for work life any longer. 😂😭 Why have these men not taken me away yet? Hmm?

my one like "american cringing at europeans" thing is the amount of europeans I've seen who think that we drink americanos when we're drinking coffee

One thing about me is that if there's a pointless rewards program that most people don't know exists, I'm gonna devote way too much time and energy to it so I can cash in 😈

Liquid Death may have to rebrand since Panera sadly has actual deaths with their drinks.

I have a question! Can Piepoe talk??? :3

Yes! Piepoe can indeed talk, and is implied to be able to speak in her ranking screen images. (The text on the bottom is Piepoe's "implied" responses and speech)

It is 100% capable of speaking to anyone and understands creachers a lot better than one would think. However, he has extreme social/interacting with others stress, and realized that not speaking(even when others talk to them) causes less feelings of uncomfort for them, so they almost never ever talk, even to trusted friends. The most you'd get out of her is an odd sound, that is in fact speech, but backwards. Maybe just one word, or a sentence, but almost always no more than that.
