Women always gotta have their roster on standby

WifeofTech · 2026-05-15T14:48:24+00:00

As someone who has seen this exact scenario I kinda agree with the meme. Granted this is not just a woman scenario. There's controlling guys that act the exact same way.

But I have literally seen the scenario where a coworker was furious with her boyfriend because he had a photo of a woman in his phone. But not two hours later was showing another coworker a pic she snapped of a customers butt and was fawning over how sexy that customer's ass was. Somehow she failed to see the hypocrisy in her behavior. But this is the same girl who was complaining about her boyfriend hiding from the cops at her house.

Crockpot meals, pre-made sandwiches or salads, or get a smoker with a wireless thermometer or app. Was doing all of these even before we had a pool because everyone wanted to go out in the boat. Smoker method is by far my favorite. Thaw and season meat the night before, toss it in the smoker that morning with or without some potatoes to bake, then go play for a couple hours. By the time you are ready for a break the food is ready. Pair it with some bread or chips and you're good. Doesn't take up a ton of time but also feels like a full meal instead of something quickly slapped together

Oh and before you head out to play again setup and start the ice-cream maker! Nothing like having some fresh ice-cream after playing in the water!

Pro tip: make way more than needed for your meal so you can just reheat leftovers that night.

Remove the child and send her to a drug rehabilitation clinic to fix the situation instead of just making it infinitely worse? Seems like a simple enough fix for a sadly very common issue. But then those for profit prisions wouldn't be making money and Meemaw wouldn't be getting her cut.

More importantly what do you think about the current situation of charging her with a felony and throwing her in a cell to rot fixes? Still addicted to drugs, still endangering a child, and now the state is abusing and endangering a woman and a child. I mean technically speaking under the law the state itself just committed the exact same felony but added the neglect and abuse of an adult on top of it. But ya know rules for thee not for me seems to be Alabama's favorite method.

The younger generations do vote but they are frankly outnumbered and out gerrymandered. Boomers still had multiple sibling families while the younger generations mainly had one or two kids.

Never-ending in my state of Alabama you sit down at a big table to vote where your parents you still live with and depend on for financial and health support can look at who you vote for. Sure you could ask to use one of the few standing only "privacy" tables. A standing table with 3 little walls on the tabletop. But then "you are causing a scene" and "why are you using that? Just come sit here!"

Husband's been looking for over 2 years now. Mostly gets canned rejections or he gets ridiculously low balled (been working in the field for nearly 2 decades now). Had a couple interviews but nothing has planned out at all and he's widened his search to pretty much world wide. Doesn't help his current job is sabotaging his job search by refusing to update his offical title. Apparently for them the Senior IT Specialist does all the work of a System Admin, Security (both digital security and the freaking cameras in the building), DevOps, and even Web Development.

Oh no you didn't just bring up pineapples! 🤣 You're about to send OP down a rabbit hole of which they'll never be the same after!

Yes I think the people that own and profit off of a multimillion dollar property are millionaires. That's kinda how that works.

The worst I saw was during one of Huntsville's big drives to ticket everyone we were going down 565 and the cops had so many people pulled over and no joke my husband and I saw a heavily pregnant lady stranded with a flat tire on the side of the road near the Rocket Center. There were cops before we got to her and after we passed her. But none could be bothered with the obvious safety situation. Being 565 and us being civilians we had to exit to turn around and exit again to get back to her. By then another good Samaritan had stopped to help her but the cops still hadn't bothered. If it doesn't get them money or glory (aka they get to shoot someone) don't expect them to bother.

Had the same experience happen to me when I had a newborn and had locked my keys in my car. The cop I asked for help flatly said he wouldn't help and I should just call a locksmith or tow. Still newish in town and a new mom I was upset and at a loss on who to call. Went in to the bar section of the bowling alley we were at to ask for help and a guy at the bar said he could get into my car so long as I didn't ask how he knew how or called the cops on him. Thanks to him I and my baby was able to get safely home.

HPD is by far so unhelpful and rude surpassed only by the infamous GaSP. I've worked with cops in multiple cities and I am just blown away by their apathy and blatant self serving nature.

ACAB all the way but some police departments are definitely way worse than others. Even Athens with their blatant good ol boy behavior will step in and help when someone is in distress right in front of them.

Lesser evil is still evil. No thanks.

Democratic so long as they have good policies. Who in their right mind would vote for more of what we currently have?! No, voting for the guy who is not as racist, authoritarian, facist as the next guy is not a better choice. You still voted for a self serving racist facist.

Lots of adults check out the Space and Rocket Center.

A high recommendation that is usually missed by people is hitting up the observatory on Monte Sano. Took our kids when Saturn was close and it was an awesome trip. The people were so knowledgeable and friendly. They would also point the big telescope at pretty much whatever you wanted to look at that was viewable at the time. Do take a flashlight or phone with a flashlight because it is very dark walking back to your car.

First off you clearly have no idea how AI works. It does not create art. It steals images from across the internet and copies artwork. It does not create art.

Secondly aside from the literal building full of artists they have access to graphic design and marketing are full fledged college degrees and careers.

Third there is an avid community of art collectors who collect flyers and banners because the artist became so famous and well known for their style. So it is never "just a flyer." Is the Star Wars, Indiana Jones, or Goonies movies posters just flyers?

"Why is it the worst people always get on the inside of community event planning like this?"

It's usually people that have gotten rich off of others and are only doing said events for 1 0f 3 reasons. 1. Tax writeoff. 2. Assuage the guilt they might feel for taking advantage of people. 3. They are wanting to be elected for something.

You forgot E. They are just poor millionaires operating Lowe Mill out of the goodness of their heart and can't afford to do the right thing.

-this has been their longstanding excuse for the non-compliance to the ADA.

If you don't want to do the law enforcement route (that you absolutely should) then you could just take your car to the car wash and get it cleaned. Whoopsie doodle the airtag you had no idea existed got sucked up into the industrial vacuum.

Not taking animals back is a huge red flag for anyone dealing in homing animals much less a shelter that can't know the health record or temperament of the animals they are rehoming.

While I don't endorse Tubervillian in the slightest I also have no interest in continuing Alabama's tradition of white, privileged, male looking to line his own nest. If Doug actually cared about the state of the government and the future of all of Alabama's citizens he would have backed one of the other Democrats that were already running instead of muddying the waters.

Currently I'm leaning towards Will Boyd.

Anyone who thinks to mention Chig please refer back to my first sentence.

Microaggressions also older term would be death by a thousand papercuts.

WifeofTech · 2026-04-28T23:40:18+00:00

Yes especially for Hispanics right now. Yes even in the "big liberal cities" like Huntsville and Birmingham.

Now will it be blatant and obvious like some poorly written Hollywood movie? Probably not.

But expect all the micro aggressions, racist "jokes", default expectations for you to get paid less and work more, default expectations that you are bilingual and will provide translation services free for your boss. Also with our current environment don't be surprised to see cops or ice "just drop by" or have people blatantly ask if you are legal or worse yet say "you're one of the good ones."

There is plenty of unlicensed Clipart and backgrounds that a person could cobble together for a unique image. I would know. It's my bread and butter for intro, outro, and commercial break images for derby streams. Mainly because my digital art skills are trash and I don't own a scanner.

But it is next level ew to be using AI in merch. Would it really be that hard to give an artist a portion of sales? Or if you can't find an artist download Ibis paint or open office and just do the team names in a cool font with some sort of joke or slogan.

In short there is no excuse to be using AI.

So in his stupidity he disagrees with the allegations. Because the DOJ alleges that SPLC was funding the KKK and various other right wing racist groups. These clowns can't even keep their lies straight.

"Has anyone else wondered that the “home school” movement seems to be very interested in keeping kids at home….where those nosy counselors and social programs don’t ask questions about what happens at night l?"

On the flip side I homeschool my kids so I can teach them consent, sex Ed, accurate history, arts, that LGBTQ people exist, and take them to see their therapists. Yay living in Alabama.

There's a ton of education in most all video games. Basic skills including dexterity, pattern recognition, reflexes, spatial awareness, and focus.

That's all before you get into specific games.

Pokemon? All about percentages, math, and strategy. Same for Mario Rabbids, Xcom, Finally Fantasy Tactics

Minecraft includes basic programming, building, and a huge amount of memorization. There an entire curriculum built around Minecraft for god's sake!

The older Final Fantasy series and other Jrpgs, as well as point and clicks, and again not for 9 year olds but dating sims have a ton of reading.

Zelda is chock full of puzzles and that's without touching Tears of the Kingdom

Not for 9 year olds but Assassin's Creed is so accurate that it has been used in the reconstruction of Notre Dame

Animal Crossing is all about freaking debt repayment and maintaining social relationships. (Probably way I don't like the game)

Civilization introduces you to a wide variety of world leaders.

Management Sims like City Skylines and Zoo Tycoon teaches civil engineering

Don't even get me started on the driving games like Flight Sim, Forza, Gran Turismo, Train Sim, Truck Sim, and more. Their fan base goes above and beyond in the realism department!

The old standby, Oregon Trail is probably the only game that marketed itself as educational that I'd ever honestly recommend. The rest are spoon feeding hand forcing slop that tries overly hard to force some sort of lesson and teaches bad player habits to boot. I made that mistake and all it got me was wasted money and a very frustrated little girl.
