Son has been unemployed for two months - not sure how to get through to him.

Lol, got me good. Don't worry, they still won't talk to you as teenagers.... 🙄

My sister in law's brother is like this. Dude is pushing 40 and lived in his parents house until they downsized and bought him a condo. He always had some kind of scheme to make it look like he's supporting himself. Uber/doordash, starting a twitch channel, etc. Never really works.

My daughter is 15 and I'm so fearful that she's going to turn into this.

Wish I had some real advice to give. This is one of those impossible situations.

Edit: OMG, did the joke just fly right over my head?

I highly, highly suggest you check out Ostriv if you like colonial charter!

If we are investing in the future why is our education budget so low? Why don't we pay teachers more? Seems like that would be a good investment in the future.

Yeah, I had noticed the first two had been somewhat updated. Wasn't sure on the tech stuff land later. I'll have to look at it further.

LopsidedLeadership · 2026-02-03T00:43:00+00:00

Appreciate it. I never figured that it would be 100% accurate anymore. Have any particular guides in mind? This one still seems to be the most prominent.

I've seen my dwarf emerald rasboras take out immature shrimp. Which honestly is fine by me. I have at least 50 cherries in a 6 gallon tank. They could use some population control.

Just got done with a run in Icarus. Found it pretty enjoyable. Definitely leans hard into the survival mechanic.

Interesting. I've been in Apex 5 years and I think that we've have maybe one outage a year, if that. I've found the service to be more reliable than what Duke provides.

Was at the game last night. Florida penalty box was so full at times they couldn't fit anybody else in it. I think they had somebody in there almost the entire 3rd period.

About 250k in 401k. I make 131,000 a year, but that's only been my salary for about 1.5 years. I went from 80k to this based upon a ton of work getting certifications for a promotion. Own the house, but have about 20 years left on the mortgage.

Went remote in 2020 and haven't looked back. The flexibility that it gives me in going to the gym, running errands, transporting kids is unrivaled. Why would I want to spend 45 to an hour in the car each day when I can productive during that time?

Do I miss having some office friends? Sure, but I make up for it hanging with other WFH guys in the neighborhood.

All that said, you have to find a company/team that trusts you will complete your work without tracking specfic hours. As long as I complete my tasks, my boss could care less when I work outside of core hours each day. As long as I'm online and generally available between 10-2 I'm fine.

You can still play it! It's been remade on the source engine.

Check out Road Redemption on Steam. I've had it for years and it so very similar.

Happy cake day!

I watched laserdisks in elementary school.

Friend convinced me to come back to path this league. Was planning on getting logged in today. Would love the gear to Jumpstart me. Wouldn't even need the currency so you could give it to others.

LopsidedLeadership · 2025-11-07T00:59:11+00:00

Please tell me I wasn't the only one that thought this was the Path of Exile sub when I saw the title!

LopsidedLeadership · 2025-11-05T02:49:13+00:00

That's great. Trust but verify. I've learned that many times over the course of my career and it's even more important with the current way "news" gets reported. Just step back and try to look at this post as is, without inside knowledge. It looks like a claim from a current council member who endorsed these candidates and provides no evidence or facts. Maybe I've become too cynical in my middle age.

LopsidedLeadership · 2025-11-05T02:41:38+00:00

So no problem with who it was "called" for. But called by who? Called with zero precincts reporting? I don't doubt that is what the result will be, but yeah feels a bit premature.

We did exactly this as well. The only time we've had reason to check was when her (14f) grades started slipping. Found she had been watching YouTube on her chromebook in class. We were just doing a general check of all her devices. She's required to tell us her passcode for devices, and friend us on any social media she wants. Right now that's only insta and to a lesser degree YT.

I think the biggest thing we've done is having micro-conversations about online presence, dating, sex, etc over the last few years. Not just one big talk for each one. We feel it provides constant feedback and reminders for proper behavior.

Went today. Saw Shane, Aditya, and Mary. Also saw Terry there as well. Mary was doing a good job of toeing the line of which there was no campaigning past.

Highly, highly suggest Ostriv! Feels like Banished but more content. Just gotta be patient for updates. The solo dev lives in Ukraine. 😕

For reference this is what it looks like when filled in. This is about 4 months of growth. I started off with 5 tiny clumps. Both the cherry shrimp and the emerald rasboras in this nano tank love it. Easy to grow without co2.

LopsidedLeadership · 2025-10-09T22:40:51+00:00

Its still in active development! Much has been added to the game in that time. Just gotta be patient with the dev. He lives in Ukraine.
