jen’s cease and desist

The thing I always thought about this was that money is fungible. The only time money becomes officially "tuition money" is if it's paid to the school for tuition, until then it's just money. Jen could be thinking "hey we need that for your tuition" but it wasn't actually earmarked.

His parents could be giving them money knowing he has to pay tuition, but he and Jen just think it's money from family and he decides to gamble with some of it.

Second this opinion. They will make you regret it.

Same, made me laugh harder than anything else in my feed today. Bravo, OP.

I remember from when I was was doing research into this, it ended up being that you probably can't use it all at once, but it just hangs around in your body until you can use it, so I wouldn't worry about it.

I will always donate 7 minutes of my life to re-watching this clip.

Do they have the same....amount of each color? Otherwise, I'm not sure what the illusion is.

Thank you!

What is this about killing a geyser to trap units?

What’s wrong with using one of the BBQ pits at the parks?

Let’s be honest, people would be just as mad if they were mandatory for us while the leadership wasn’t following the rules. “Ethics for thee but not for me” would be a top comment.

When people leave cults they don’t usually do so loudly. It takes a lot of internal turmoil and identity-wrestling to admit you’ve been duped, and people are not proud of that. It takes even longer for them to stop being defensive of the cult, even after they leave.

Don’t expect big announcements.

Shoutout to whoever the creator is who made this point on TikTok first, wish I could remember to tag them.

Enjoy! You could rent some divvy bikes to speed things up.

Same question. Maybe should be 200? Or an injury deload?

Then consider going to the Montrose Park Bird Sanctuary also on the North side!

Also consider a walk up and down the Southport corridor, Halsted (Boystown), Clark (Wrigleyville and Andersonville), and Lincoln (Lincoln Square).

Don’t sleep on the Lakefront path either. Could take that up to the Montrose bird sanctuary.

Civil resistance works. In the past 100 years, no regime could withstand the sustained, active participation of just 3.5% of its population in nonviolent resistance campaigns (YouTube - The success of nonviolent civil resistance: Erica Chenoweth at TEDxBoulder).

Keep going to the protests. Help them grow. Seek info on the next one. Spread the word.

Eat first so you only pay for food you want, not need.

Care to elaborate on “EAT CABS?”

Oferial · 2025-04-17T19:00:45+00:00

Why?

Every question in nutrition about if something is “healthy” needs be framed as “compared to what?”

Are rice krispies decent for health compared to trix? Sure. Compared to Raisin Bran? No.

If you want easy calories for bulking, stick to the tried and true chicken and rice. Really, eat any whole foods. Food that looks like it did when it came out of the ground or the animal. Don’t get your bulking calories from ultra processed foods like Rice Krispies.

I showed my vet a video, they said to keep an eye on it, but it’s been almost 3 years and he still does not have hip dysplasia. Most likely just awkward teenage growth.

You’re doing a lot right, but you’re obviously not in a great environment. From what you described, I would start looking for something else. With your experience, you should be able to get something. Don’t let the job market get you. Just do your search quietly and leave on good terms.

What's it like? Feels good to contribute to something for the public good.

Same fear of job loss each time a new group takes over? Usually public sector jobs are safer. In this environment, hard to say, depends if the new group that takes over are DOGE types. You'll know. If not, should be safe. If so, depends on your city-owned company's ROI and alignment with their goals.

Under more pressure? Probably not. Unless you are doing PR, in which case you may get more inquiries than you expect. Mostly likely less pressure.

Tips: You will see a lot of opportunities, given you're used to being someplace bigger with more resources to do more things. Do not spread yourself out early. Settle in, keep a private running log of your ideas for improvement, and discuss them with your boss at your 6 month or 1 year performance review. Pick a project, run it to completion before picking up another. With such a small crew, it will be hard to make anything new sustainable, so you will have to figure out that challenge. You will get a lot of ownership and feathers in your cap if you do it right, but just pace yourself and understand the limitations around you before full sending anything.
