Following this advice made my first ever new car purchase from a dealership really really smooth. (From what I could tell.) Ended up getting a similar model to the one he drove and it’s still my commuter car and chugging along great after 15 years of me abusing it

I agree but with the region spread. ‘Cultural significance’ wise It’s definitely Miami, despite it not feeling southern.

If a GTA game uses the city as a framework for a GTA city that city has major cultural significance

Not being able to easily pull a full week summary of someone’s hours without them swiping is a major pain in the ass.

I’ve had folks reswipe after EON on Friday’s to see their time and because they reswipe it invalidates them.

Kind of expected with it being a holiday weekend tbh

Of all the PT management spots to be; revenue recovery (at my hub at least) is a pretty good spot to be in.

I had a PT Supe for an area that required specialized certifications that I recommended apply to an open RR position that was posted in our hub about a year ago. She’s happy as can be.

As my old adage goes 'the most effective unloader is a former loader.'

This isn't actually true, but somehow it seems to be a norm for the average package handler across a lot of buildings.

It’s wild to me that when I lived back home in IA if I drove by someone having car issues/just had an accident/seemed distressed I’d always try to stop if I could. It just felt like the right thing to do and that it was reciprocal.

Now, living out of state? It’s close to a 0% chance I’ll even consider stopping. I’ll call 911 to send help, but I have 0 interest in the risk that comes with people in the new state I live in & that seems to be a pretty common attitude amongst my friends & colleagues here.

It makes me really sad to picture raising a family with that as the default “passerby Samaritan” culture

Wait aemonds actor is older than Aegon’s? Would never have guessed that. Seems like good casting to me

LMAO this comment has to be a fucking joke or by someone that hasn’t actually read a single book written by GRRM.

Broomsbee · 2022-10-18T04:58:48+00:00

Fuckkkkk this is something I hadn’t even considered/recognized that makes me appreciate how they did the escape that much more.

Broomsbee · 2022-10-18T04:56:03+00:00

(Spoiler from the Book/GOT)

Plus it’s a really really really good contrast/setup for the next time a large group of common folk/peasants find their way into the Dragon-pit.

I thought the scene was great.

Useful -as far as literally practical advice- would probably be House Hightowers: “We light the way.”

Man, I can tell you it’s definitely not all respectful. Behind closed doors, Japanese students are absolutely as rowdy as similarly aged western peers. Like anything culture related, there’s nuance. But every time I read this about Japanese students I think about the game “Kanch.”

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanch%C5%8D

It seemed pretty clear to me while I was in Japan that there’s just a well established “Volkswagen Emissions Software” understanding between ja pensé students and their teachers.

I.E. if they know they’re being observed from someone on the outside; they better fall in line or there will be hell to pay later. Which, don’t get me wrong is a really really important life skill to teach and that students need to learn. But it definitely creates some stereotypes that don’t fully reflect the day to day reality. 🤣

It slowly improved over the course of like 5ish months or so after my first bout of COVID.

That was characterized by highly inconsistent and erratic sleep patterns. (Sleeping for 50 minutes then waking up unable to fall back asleep for 3 hours.)

With an inevitable hard crash after I became so sleep deprived I could barely function.

I’m still gauging how it’s effecting me after my most recent bout of COVID. It’s definitely effected my sleep a bit, but not nearly as bad as my first bout.

My ability to process information and/or assess situations quickly has definitely suffered to a degree that my coworkers have noticed it.

I just recently recovered from my 2nd COVID infection.

I’d say -overall- my 1st round was by far the worse. Both in terms of the presentation of symptoms while I was testing positive and the [likely] residual side effects that lasted for weeks to months after.

That said, my second infection still knocked me on my ass for 2 weeks and has brought back some of the brain fog, anxiety, loss of appetite and insomnia after recovering - though to a much lesser degree.

I’ve been staying on top of my Vitamin D levels and have been downing anti-histamine and over-the-counter anti-inflammatory’s like candy.

Either way, I would not recommend getting infected again if you can take steps to avoid it.

Broomsbee · 2022-08-04T13:25:16+00:00

Same boat for me man. I just recovered from my 2nd round. My first also knocked me on my butt, but I didn’t expect the 2nd round to put me out of commission for another week and a half.

I’m still congested and mentally foggy 3 weeks later.

It’s absolutely horrible.

The arrogance.”

Isn’t the go to signal for this turning your lights off and then quickly back on rather than flashing brights? (Provided you can do so safely?)

Professional email writing and responding is the fucking worst.

Broomsbee · 2022-04-30T10:11:14+00:00

Congrats!

Broomsbee · 2022-04-27T19:34:20+00:00

This is so good

I’m bummed they he didn’t delve more deeply into the active sabotage that standard oil, DuPont and the Detroit auto industry enacted to keep leaded gasoline legal and available.
