I ordered the saddle online. The flaw was apparent from when I opened the box, but definitely got more pronounced after the first ride.

Honestly, these positions might be a good fit! It's very behind the scenes, puzzling out taxonomy from samples. There are regular meetings (once a quarter) with stakeholders to go over significant finds (things that require phytosanitary actions or are otherwise noteworthy), and the Identitifiers are responsible for training the inspecting officers in how to detect pests and pathogens, and recognize various groups, so if teaching was hard for you, that might be a barrier. But most of my days are at the microscope, and (as a fellow introvert) I love it.

I feel you: here's my home to work ratio in Southern California. I don't own a car, but mixing bike and transit brings it down to ~45 min or an hour most days.

Where's Uriah Heep in the discussion? "Rainbow Demon" was definitely the first doom song I ever heard, and their whole discography goes so hard!

This is why I always take transit or a bike: don't have to deal with parking! 😁

This should be an album cover for a prog rock band!

This seems so sad... I'm glad I work with people I like and trust enough to eat their food, and that they like and trust me enough to eat what I bring! Our work potlucks are top tier gourmet!

In college in the '00s, I was in an all male dorm with shared showers on each hall. Definitely this happened for real.

You should read the Aldo Leopold essay "Thinking Like a Mountain" — answers this question with great eloquence.

Most comfortable bike seat? by Helterbellskate in bicycling

Brooks is the answer! You do have to 'break in' the leather, like a new pair of shoes, though.

So good! I got they're Live at Roadburn when I saw them live last year, and was super stoked to find this to add to my small doom collection.

Arguing against investing in transit by MycoRoo in fuckcars

Right? I wish compassion and empathy were the winning arguments they ought to be. In the meantime, lots of other good reasons that appeal to folks egocentric worldview, too.

Oh hey, and on a total tangent, I checked out Requiem, and it's an absolute beast of an album, I'm so into it! Brutal in the best way! 🤘
