It is not possible, everyone is sleeping and animals dont usually get into our house, theres nothing to be knocked over outside except our patio stuff which are super heavy to move. Also, as soon as i heard the bang i rushed to check, checked all of the house, and checked outside. Everything is in place and nothing seems to be unusual.

It probably wasnt a message from god but I can't convince you otherwise if you're religious and believe that. It could have been anything, a car exhaust popping, a squirrel landing on your roof after jumping off a tree, someone throwing something at your house, could have even been something random like ice from an airplane or a tiny meteorite lmao. God would be the last thing I'd assume but you already sound pretty into that so I mean, it's whatever you want to believe.

LPT: Never assume people want or don't want kids. Also, people can be really put off when asked to give a glimpse into their home life, so don't ask anything about their current home situation (including pets). Ask broader questions when first meeting them. "Have you always lived around here? What do you do for fun? Seen any good shows lately?".

Asking about pets forces the person to share facts about their personal life, or risk looking like an asshole for choosing not to (because pets seem so harmless, and mostly are, but also deeply personal).

Schrödinger’s cat has been perverted by popularity. It’s not that the cat is alive or dead it’s something else entirely. When someone looks at the cat it is forced into being alive or dead, but is currently something neither alive nor dead. It’s in a third state of being.

So your argument is wrong, and you had no idea why. If asked would you have said that it could be wrong because of a misnomer about superposition?

I think it's more likely that pulling things out of the oven is pretty basic stuff. It should be obvious when two hands are needed. And when doing so, you should be moving slowly and carefully. If you're whipping things out in a quick frenzy and don't realize the inherent risk of handling hot items, then there are other tips you should start with before this LPT. Like, take your time and think about what you're doing when you're moving large dishes full of hot liquid.

These people must have the mind over body of a Jedi or slow as a sloth to not see how someone could easily burn themselves while instinctively reaching out for something they’re about to drop

>The biggest lesson I have learned to be aware of my negative internal thoughts. I can be my harshest critic and I sometimes have to stop and reflect “would I say this to a friend? What would I say to my friend if they came to me with this concern? Will it matter tomorrow, next week or next year?

I wish I could be my greatest friend you know.. also Yeah i did learn something from your pov

I'm sorry to hear about your mother's loss. It sounds like this photo is very important to her. It may be worthwhile to contact a professional photo restoration service to see if they have any ideas on how to separate the photo from the frame without damaging it. Additionally, it may help to keep the frame and photo sealed in a plastic bag with a desiccant material to absorb any excess moisture.
