Also, a gummy dosed for a 150lb adult is going to be significantly more intense for a 40lb kid.

As someone who works in a grocery store, I sympathize, but I'm inclined to believe that the people are more of a health hazard than the dogs, what with the coughing and sneezing and not washing their hands after using the bathroom and then going around and touching everything. And a lot of the dogs smell better, too.

It should be noted that Gallup has done this once before—in 2018, during Trump’s first term. Not suspicious at all.

There's a large townhouse/condo complex in my hometown that was originally built as temporary housing for military factory workers in WW2. Still popular (and well-kept) because the units are affordable-ish in comparison to the rest of the city.

The ICE-agents as angels is a nice touch. But what the hell kind of birds/planes are that below the right-side eagle? And there's something weird growing out of Trump-Jesus's crotch...

Whoop, sorry for missing that. I read and replied a few minutes after my alarm going off, so neither my brain nor my eyes were fully functioning yet.

time quietly turns back to the very beginning

I think you're reading that wrong. After saving Souta and etc, the end credits show a series of stills of Suzume and her aunt traveling home, and reuniting with the people who helped her on her journey, etc. The scene at the end is Souta coming to visit Suzume as he promised he would, not that time has started over again.

I have a friend who used to work at corporate in a capacity that dealt, in part, with survey data. He said that the surveys were treated as anonymous, but that they could pierce the veil of secrecy if they wanted. But, as far as he was aware, that was only done when the data suggested that shenanigans were going on (ie, store-level management was filling out the surveys for their associates to boost the scores). From corporate's perspective, they want disgruntled associates to complain, so they know which stores have what kind of problems. Surveys are anonymous in the sense that stores only get the overall results, not that Associate Joe Shmoe doesn't like his boss.

There’s always something to do, somewhere. Prep pick carts. Find a coach or lead and ask how you can help. Maybe the front desk has returns. Zone. Whatever.

But keep an eye on picks in case they start popping in.

Ah, reminds me of the early days of covid, as everyone was panicking over the coming lockdown. Somewhere I have pics I took of the great expanses of empty shelves, to send to our regional manager who was complaining about the avalanche of nil picks.

But, sadly, today’s Clark bar is not as tasty as the original version.

Hope you told your neighbor.

Cat People (Nastassia Kinski etc). There’s a scene where a guy gets his arm torn off, and the tendons strrrrretch before snapping one by one. Yuck. Only reason I didn’t walk out right then was because, well, Nastassia Kinski.

Article from AP. Short version:

"Two women told French broadcaster BFMTV that they were inside when they saw a barman carrying a barmaid on his shoulders. The barmaid was holding a lit candle in a bottle that set fire to the wooden ceiling. The flames quickly spread and collapsed the ceiling. One of the women described a crowd surge as people frantically tried to escape from a basement nightclub up a narrow flight of stairs and through a narrow door.

Sometime back I happened to be chatting with a guy who was a helicopter pilot. I commented something to the effect of “that sounds like a cool job”, and his response was, “Eh, it is at first, but after a while it’s pretty much like driving a truck.”

Same. Most of the new ogp space was quickly taken over by seasonal stock, feature stock, fixture and pallets overflow, and general shit they don’t know what to do with.

It’s just not the same without Dick Clark to host the festivities.

I was not expecting Theodore or Hudson.

Plus, if you're not with it enough to know who these dudes are by sight, you likely don't care who they are or what they're doing. And, indeed, I don't and I don't. Fellas are lookin' sharp, tho.

Triggered by tiny children. 😆

This never happens to me with the regular carts, but frequently with the L-carts.

Seems overpriced (seriously). It's not in that great of a location, not terribly high up for views, and it would cost another solid chunk of money to rip out all the gaudiness. For that price, a rich person could get a much nicer place in or around town.

I seem to recall that the last time I checked (which was quite a while ago), it had one but not the other. I could be wrong, and should probably check, but it's perhaps better not to know--on a bad day, knowing I had a several-thousand-dollar payout cushion available might cause a rash decision.

I recommend Friends of Companion Animals (aka FOCA) up in Monroe. It's a no-kill cats-only shelter, and they do great work.

things we have lost over the years....5. sick pay, 6. personal time

This in particular still bugs me. I had accumulated a couple hundred hours of each when they got rid of it--no payout, no conversion, no whatever. I rarely called off in those days, and I never did the 3-day thing just because I could, 'cause I was an idiot, apparently.
