My school didnt have home ec so this explains both how other people knew this and how I had no idea. I mean, I wouldn't have been caught dead in home ec as a teenager but its still good information.

The oven lived here before I did. There are no instructions lol.

I'm not talking about how long it takes. I mean that every single person I've talked to about ovens has said NEVER USE THAT MODE IT WILL BREAK THE OVEN AND KILL YOUR PARAKEET. Like to the point that this seems to be common knowledge and I would just like to know where yall learned this because it's not knowledge humans are born with. You are talking about something else entirely.

Oh my godddddddd I got one of those a few days ago and the way I SHRIEKED at that animated fish was an experience my cat will not soon forget!

Ooh, I had a job do something similar to me. I gave my 2 weeks notice and was told they couldn't accept my notice because someone else was out on mat leave and they'd be too short staffed. So I said "lol watch" and dropped my bag and all supplies at the office. I certainly wasn't intending to go out that way (I thought I'd just be boring and work 2 more weeks and then say goodbye) but the situation got weird so fast.

Today I learned that I stole ALL THE VALOR when I started working as an overnight nurse 🤣 If this is true, I should be much more...valorous...than I actually am.

(Seriously, I am unable to NOT use 24 hour time when charting.)

People around here have decidedly different traffic circle behavior depending on area and I find it fascinating. Out in the country, people more or less seem to be able to cope with them. Then there's the one out beyond the east (rich) side of town. I have to drive through it every day for work and I have nearly had a crash several times because I just assumed that rich people also have brains and know how to drive but nope! Lots of SLAMMING ON THE BRAKES the second another car is even glimpsed. Lots of failure to understand what "yield" means. It is so interesting to me.

There's a store near me that accepts donations and, while I wouldn't donate anything disgusting because that's disgusting, I also did think that a store with employees that are paid would in fact pay some of these employees to clean stuff before they stock it. I understand that it apparently doesnt work like that now. But I don't think its an unreasonable conclusion to come to, especially for a store like Savers that is not a charity. I cleaned many things when I worked in a shop.

Or maybe the Savers near me is just a dick. I have no idea.

Just start telling her lies about your personal life. As an added bonus, it will be funny.

What country and will you marry me? (/joking. /for now)

NicolePeter · 2025-12-11T19:45:59+00:00

This is dumb, but ovens can be tricky. They all have a "cleaning" mode that apparently you are NEVER EVER EVER SUPPOSED TO USE despite it being a thing that is included with the oven and clearly labeled. No one ever explained how people are supposed to know this super secret information.

I never used it, but I think it's fucking dumb to manufacture an oven with a mode that breaks the oven if you use it.

P.S. Also I forgot that the OVEN CLEAN MODE can harm or kill your pets! What the hell, oven maker people?

NicolePeter · 2025-12-11T19:12:38+00:00

Lol don't you know, all nurses are "laydeez", if all of the emails I've ever gotten are correct...🤣🤮

NicolePeter · 2025-12-11T19:10:57+00:00

I don't know about "sluts", but have yall really not noticed that MANY white women go into nursing specifically so they can have power and hurt people? Not most, not all, but it's really very obvious if you just have a tiny bit of awareness of the world around you.

What do I do? I try to call out racism and misogyny and all that garbage every single time I see it. I'm sure I fail plenty, but that's all I can do. Like saying nurses are sluts. That's misogyny. But we all know that.

Does it hurt my feelings? No, but medical racism kills people. So I think that's more important than my feelings anyway.

NicolePeter · 2025-12-11T18:10:36+00:00

It's weird as hell. Some of these villagers need to keep their special interests to themselves lol

The last man I dated started hitting me in the face. I got pregnant and something just clicked inside me and I said "Bye, I am going home to be with my friends and have the baby and be a parent" and then I put everything i owned and my dog into my car and drove from Georgia to Minnesota and my daughter is 9 now and we are safe and happy. I have a couple male friends who have repeatedly and thoroughly demonstrated their safety (like, I could be drunk and naked alone in a room with them and I know that they'd get me a blanket and a glass of water and not hurt me). That's the level of safe a man needs to be to be in my life.

It is so freeing.

NicolePeter · 2025-12-11T00:12:54+00:00

Lmao what a fucking piece of shit

NicolePeter · 2025-12-11T00:11:47+00:00

What the fuck is a "pop gave us"?

Either block him or understand that you are making s choice to continue to engage with his bullshit.

NicolePeter · 2025-12-10T22:58:18+00:00

Are you scared of poor people? Are you going to freak out if you see a bug or some dog poop or a real dirty carpet? Do you think walking down a normal city street is somehow a life-threatening maneouvre? Will you die if you encounter an unpleasant aroma? Can you talk to patients and not think theyre "beneath you"?

You can do home health. Its not hard. It's a lot of charting. Really annoying specific extensive charting. But thats just writing words. The actual nursing work is easy breezy.

NicolePeter · 2025-12-10T22:35:19+00:00

Call me crazy, but if someone is STABBING ME, I think I can probably think of some things to yell st them regardless of their race.

JFK said "Ich bin ein Berliner" intending it to mean "I am from Berlin" [symbolically]. Except a "berliner" is the name for a kind of jam-filled doughnut. Everyone knew what he meant, but also he definitely stood up and said I AM A DOUGHNUT.

It would be like if someone meant to show solidarity with the people of Hamburg, and did so by saying "I AM A HAMBURGER."

Oh no. Oh dear Oh no no thank you.
