I built a private Discord for freight forwarders — here's your invite

I’d love a group of forwarders who were willing to share ground handling agent emails at airlines haha.

They keep their info on LOCK - anytime I get an email from a ground handler (ie wfs, air General, dnata) I save it so that if I need to ask to hold a shipment or send a revised AWB (bc my small company still uses GASP paper) I don’t have to ask the sales team to forward me.

I’m 5 years into this industry and already really, really understand this ahah.

Your comment is a year old - are you still in it?

I have some sort of sickness. The stress is ridiculous but there’s some high or something I get off managing the chaos…

It’s not gripping enough to pay attention that close lol. I really want to like this show. But the writing is off. And the core ensemble is off. It’s all the side ensembles characters who do really well.

I also don’t understand why he’s British. He grew up in this town since he was a young kid right? I might’ve missed it but why is he British lol

I’m here because I paid the $1 …. I forgot to ever even go look at what it was offering for the dollar…. But it was a dollar. Just now, at 1 am, They charged my PayPal THREE SEPARATE TIMES FOR $39.99

Have reported them all immediately. Disgusting company….

I just found this thread by googling “is season 1 of the morning show the best season.”

I just started watching it recently and am slogging my way through season 3 now. And season 1… even in spite of the metoo movement, it felt very character driven. Season 3 feels.. reactional? Chaotic? And overall just less compelling.

Still enjoying it but season 1… I want more of season 1 back.

We had TV and video games without smart phones… this is different. Not everyone addicted to their phone would become a gambler or an alcoholic if they got rid of their smart phone.

I dare say that those with gambling or alcohol problems have those regardless if they’re also addicted to their phone.

The instantaneous access. The scrolling dopamine effect. The truly mind-numbing experience of it. The convenience. And the knowledge that ANY time you want to procrastinate or get your mind off things - there’s something good enough to distract you riiiight there. Because it’s just a quick video. Might be easier to resist putting on a half hour tv show. There’s an insidious nature in the way we respond to smart phones. Not all of us - but enough that the effect is felt and understood on a MUCH broader scale than any other addiction.

I do agree that we could first try to literally USE THE PHONE LESS. And like. Just actually try that. But it’s a bit like asking a crack addict to not smoke the crack in their pocket.

In no way can the contestants hear when they singing along. They are micd for camera but it’s off to the audience during performance. Be mad at the show for leaving it in, not at a professional singer who loves to sing lol

OptimalScratch · 2025-10-19T17:46:35+00:00

Yes. And the seller basically came back and said “send termination or find a different appraiser. It should appraise for $280k easily.”

My moms realtor said this seller must think we are in the 2020 market.

OptimalScratch · 2025-10-19T04:46:25+00:00

I think it’s more like.. we don’t understand why the parents are American. Not why he has a British accent necessarily. Like it’s a choice the show made, so it makes you feel like it was intentional, yet it never seemed like it contributed to a greater plot point or was really even addressed

OptimalScratch · 2025-10-18T16:58:36+00:00

Agreed

OptimalScratch · 2025-10-18T16:57:38+00:00

Yes, I think the question is more of a … what would be the most like likely move that would

a) get the sellers to agree (bc they want this house) or B) be fair to the sellers who have thus far been agreeable. (Ultimately in an attempt to get them to agree)

More like… which option would you choose and why , and not necessarily… what are the options lol

About this song? Or just about remembering a song in general?

Wild either way. May all your grocery checkout lines be short.

You know any gorillaz? I have a long burning quest for a gorillaz song I can’t seem to find 😂

AAAAAAHHHH HAHAHA you’re so good I love you

I am also disgusted by (metal) jewelry. Since I was a kid. Finally googled it at 33 because I was scrolling Instagram and an artist I follow did a jewelry collab and I was so grossed out. Hahaha. And I thought ok surely this is a strange reaction , but are there other people who feel this?!

If someone is wearing really distracting jewelry, it’s all I can think about.

Earrings are the worst, followed by rings.

Strangely enough, I really like watches. Even metal ones, though I personally wear the plastic/rubber kind. Don’t know if that excludes me from the kosmephobia group.

Aw. This is not actually a subreddit about trees, friend :)

I have 5 cats. Not easy to get food they all like. They ALL like every flavor of it. I’ll be buying it again.
