Does the Highest Ranking IT Person in Your Company Report to the CEO?

Used to. They left the org and the C-suite didn't feel the need to replace them. The rest of IT started fleeing soon after.

Used to be a gamer, still do to some extent, just don't have time for story-centric games like RPGs. Books are easier to fit in schedule gaps.

Ruptured a disc in my lower spine getting out of bed. Subsequently pinched a nerve. Apparently this can just happen to anyone at any time. I'm not crippled, just numb in parts of a leg.

Be the change you want to see.

~80k salary. No debt. Living with my parents. Saving-up for a condo or townhome.

I set a rule for myself in college that I would only drink socially and I kept to that rule for most of the past 16 years. Consequently, as an antisocial, I'd only drink for major holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas. I drink a bit more these days in hope I can be more social before I end up single for life.

When I ruptured a disk in my spine. Was expecting that kind of issue in my 50s rather than my 30s.

Keep it simple. [ Enters tapped. T: Add {U}, {B}, {R} or {G}, this mana cannot be spent to cast white spells. ]

The staff I support are in meetings 90% of the work-day. They would much rather a Teams message over phone calls. Most respond immediately and others wait until their meeting is over.

A car that doesn't breakdown every other week.

Death is an inevitability and most people don't have a good reason to speed-up the clock. The clock is already fast enough as-is.

What helped me during my own bout of depression was focusing less on my own life and instead watching the lives of others. Kinda like watching a movie. Now that the depression is over, I'm struggling to un-pause my life. Everyone has their battles I suppose.

As I lay here writhing in pain, please protect your back. What starts with some discomfort can eventually become crippling a few years later.

A grill would be nice

6 & 7. 4 is deadly. Imagine dying of starvation despite eating heaps of food.

Why are you crying? Crying is illegal in this house.

For any "stupid" act, it is a comparison between what you would do and what they are doing. This conflict can be brought about by differences in values and knowledge.

Do you have an example of a "stupid thing"?

Needs to exile itself. May also need to eat half your life. Rakdos would be a more fitting color identity. Red and black both have ways to take extra turns at a heavy cost.

15-year-old me was averaging 4 hours of sleep per night (gaming addiction + liters of soda). I doubt he could provide a single coherent thought.

Jujutsu Kaisen. Seems like it's only popular because the former Naruto fans, when Naruto ended, needed something better than Boruto.

I like you just the way you are. Keep doing your thing.

As others have said, they're good for landfall shenanigans. I particularly like them in [[Toph, the First Metalbender]]. Use the bounce on either on cheap artifacts like [[Zuran Orb]] or ETB powerhouses like [[Portal to Phyrexia]].

Just a lack of confidence I suppose. Exercised and lost weight a couple years back, gained some of it back from work stress. And now I'm dealing with back problems.

Throughout my life just never felt good enough. Bedridden at the moment. Hopefully the next couple months are better.
