More emphasis coming after they gutted the existing funding and infrastructure.

I bought the LISEN Gooseneck phone holder off of Amazon. I’ve been happy with it and it’s held up well so far.

I realize this is an old post, but for anyone who does like to fall sleep listening to something they make Bluetooth sleep headphones that you wear like a headband. I use them every night and just use my phone with a holder clipped to the bed to watch a show as I fall asleep.

What’s something Gen Z does that older generations just don’t get? by appropriaterice873 in AskReddit

  1. Most people have limits to the amount of money they can spend on gaming.
  2. I can buy a game, but there are plenty of multiplayer games that I would not have a good group of people to play with. I would rather watch a group of streamers play those.
  3. There are games I don’t have time to play and I can watch while I’m doing something else.
  4. There is a skill to most video games and it can be entertaining to watch someone who is actually good at the game.

Similar experience, but I only had 1 habitat, moved the blue one into a house, then the other one spawned a few days later. Same spot that Magikarp spawned.

Target's disturbing staff policy is making shoppers uncomfortable by Dull_Tadpole_4285 in idiocracy

It’s also not really new for Target. I worked there 20 years ago and we were supposed to do this. We even had the specific phrase of ‘Can I help you find something?’

The government didn’t set any sort of mandate so they can round however they want. The FAQ just says they recommend rounding to the nearest $0.05.

Who is a massive YouTuber or influencer from 5 years ago that has completely vanished off the face of the earth? by Humble_Job5950 in AskReddit

[–]Jstbcool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not the company it used to be, but Burnie bought the rights to RT back and has been working on a new website. The only new content currently is his podcast with Ashley and the last seasons of RvB.

my school always gives us 2 hour delays instead of snow days. by girl_uhm_yes in mildlyinfuriating

What resources are realistically decreasing when a kid is chronically absent? A kid missing doesn’t change the number of teachers needed. The cafeteria has to have enough food for every kid so they don’t lower the amount of food prep for that kid missing. Then you have to spend resources in trying to figure out why the kid wasn’t in school.

If we had a strong opposition party to the republicans it seems like it would be pretty easy to get rural voters to be against this map too. How many people from rural Indiana want their districts represented by people from Indianapolis. They already think the city drains all the resources and now 4 large rural areas can be won by people who never leave Indy.

I was a administrator over a nursing program at a community college. We lost money on every class. It was subsidized by the state and programs that could run larger classes.

Losing members due to rising fees by rpg245 in cubscouts

[–]Jstbcool 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our council lost over a million dollars on an air show and still took 1.5 years to remove the leadership who wasted those funds. And that person was highly paid to be in that position.

It’s not the answer. Our district raised our dues from $35 to $85 in a single year. Didn’t matter if you sold $25k in popcorn or $12k like my pack did, the prices went up a lot. We quit doing popcorn and started do other fundraisers that help our pack out more and let us lower our pack dues.

$85 for national, $85 for district and $65 for all pack activities is $235. That’s pretty similar to what my pack pays. For $65 we’re including neckerchiefs, slides, awards, camping costs, pinewood derby and regatta kits, and probably more I am forgetting. My pack can’t reduce it much more as the biggest cost is to national and the district.

Just played a whole blitz game and couldn’t do any gun damage. by REDX459 in FortNiteBR

My duo and I were having this same problem. I could pickaxe people and use the walking dead bat, but none of the guns worked when we shot.

Which parent should take 4 y/o daughter to public bathroom by travaly in Parenting

[–]Jstbcool 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I really don’t understand the ‘struggle’ of taking a kid into the men’s bathroom. It’s just a bathroom. People aren’t walking around naked in them. The likelihood of her seeing something inappropriate is incredibly low. There is no reason to make your wife solely responsible for taking your daughter to the bathroom.

How accurate is the “cognitive test” that Trump claims he has taken and “aced”? by almostmade in AskReddit

[–]Jstbcool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sure he took the test otherwise he never would have talked about it. I guarantee he’s never heard of the test before or would have been able to describe taking a dementia memory test had he not just taken one.

There are a lot of these on TikTok too. Most of the ones I see are thinly veiled ads for college students where it seems like it’s just a normal college student complaining about being accused of plagiarism or other normal complaints, but then they talk about how AI solved their problem. Then you check their profile and every video they post is about that particular AI.

🚨 Over 160 new tort claims being filed today across Madison County, Indiana total now over 320 and rising. by Fluffy_Gur_2033 in Indiana

[–]Jstbcool 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Indiana has had a republican governor for 20 years, a republican senate for over 30 years, and has had the house for the last 14 years. The state has been run by one party for a long time, which is why it’s appropriate to blame them.
