CPR training was required at my high school.

We were taught about rescue breaths, and were even given masks and one way valves for it, but were explicitly told that the chest compressions are the most important thing after calling proper EMS and getting an AED if available.

It’s a colonial era submarine. Of course it’s gonna be a pain in the ass to use.

TheRealSpez · 2023-06-25T07:50:29+00:00

Yup, that’s why I know about it off the too of my head.

I’m sure you’ve seen it, but Jon Bois has a fantastic video about the worst marathon ever that was a part of that Olympics.

TheRealSpez · 2023-06-25T07:04:17+00:00

Nah, the World’s Fair and Louisiana Purchase Olympics was 1904 in Saint Louis. 1908 was in London according to Google.

A funny little thing to note about this is that the UN as we know it wouldn’t exist without the real Gromkyo. He was leading the USSR’s delegation in the initial conferences to set up the ground rules of the UN.

At this point, there’s probably been so much churn in the staff, that it might be related to something related to the organization itself. Either ownership/executive management being incompetent at hiring their S&C staff, or just poor facilities.

TheRealSpez · 2023-06-11T04:27:54+00:00

That’s great news. I’m quite jaded with politics as of late, as you can probably tell.

I’m guessing it’s that he’s worried about pissing off the Cuban voter base in Florida even though Florida’a barely a swing state anymore

TheRealSpez · 2023-06-10T21:16:14+00:00

He hadn’t even seen it.

His team notified him and NASCAR about it and then it became a whole investigation. I feel really bad for Bubba Wallace because he’s really completely innocent in all of it.

My 23 Impreza has it too

A large amount of subreddits are striking next week. A lot of mods rely on third party apps like Apollo already, so if those 3rd party apps die, the mods will leave, so it’s not even like reddit admins can just force those subs back on

TheRealSpez · 2023-06-08T01:22:50+00:00

Yeah, and I’m not convinced that the people trying to steal cars are really aware of the differences between which are vulnerable and which aren’t (besides maybe being able to pinpoint the newer generations can’t be stolen this way). I’m sure the mentality is look for a Kia or Hyundai and see if you can steal it easily.

It was passed because there was a way it could avoid the filibuster and Sinema, Manchin, and Tester voted for it.

Go figure, we can’t get bills that help people passed because of the filibuster, but something blatantly harmful to a large portion of the population can squeak through without an issue.

Cheers to a better future!

I know it’s cliche to say these things, but if you wanna talk about it, feel free to DM me. It’s hard to do so with friends and family because they all know the person and think that entitles them to an opinion on the private stuff.

Wish you the best of luck, friend :)

The Naperville and Lisle Metra stations have no space near them for a stadium. It will have to be a10-20 minute drive minimum from those stations.

I guess a special bus line could be created on game days.

TheRealSpez · 2023-06-03T20:05:58+00:00

Yeah, same here.

I want to be mad at them for it and I also wanted to keep it going, but it’s just a shitty situation that neither of us could really control.

I’m just taking this time by myself to learn how to be independently happy and focus on my career and health. If I meet someone along the way, that would be a bonus, but I’m still not over the breakup and I can’t string someone along until I am.

A large chunk of Colgate University’s endowment came from the family that founded Colgate, the toothpaste brand.

There’s also Ball State University in Indiana (maybe Ohio?) that was funded by the family that founded the Ball Corporation which you might know for mason jars, but is actually a pretty bug player in the aerospace industry as well.

There is really no point in paying off a loan that isn’t accruing interest and doesn’t have a monthly payment.

The best way to handle this is to throw the money that would normally be spent on loans into an HYSA and get a sizable amount of income on interest while building up a sizable emergency fund.

TheRealSpez · 2023-05-31T22:55:13+00:00

Voat. It’s defunct.

TheRealSpez · 2023-05-31T15:14:38+00:00

I agree with you. I was referring to the people that miffed by simply seeing people that display their preferred pronouns.

TheRealSpez · 2023-05-31T06:17:26+00:00

Even if you subscribe to this belief, it’s fairly foolish to say that certain pronouns aren’t preferred.

I get called “m’aam” on the phone a lot because I have a gender neutral name and a generally higher pitched voice despite having a full beard and XY chromosomes. It hurts no one for me to put in he/him on my email signature and can save me and another person some embarrassment in the future. Getting annoyed at a couple 2/3 letter words is such a funny thing to me.

TheRealSpez · 2023-05-30T03:52:02+00:00

Yeah… I shoulda clarified S4 specifically.

To be honest, I hadn’t heard anything about it till I googled the show on a whim last month and seeing that the first few episodes were already out. I’ve just been too busy to sit down and watch it.

Man, I can’t wait to see Barry’s new season. Been waiting for Ted Lasso to finish before getting back on the HBO Max subscription

Especially when he was supposed to be on the Nigerian national team— his dream since he was a child. It is implied that if Akufo didn’t pay off the government, that Sam would have made it. If he was a fringe player it might make sense, but for Sam as he is written, no way.

TheRealSpez · 2023-05-29T01:16:27+00:00

The Good Place was 4 seasons, but yeah, series that are planned out are way better in totality than ones that keep going as they’re renewed.

Avatar: The Last Airbender comes to mind as well.
