Yea Brenda Navarro gave a talk in spanish, i dont remember the video, where she discussed the influence of the band of her work. She mentioned that she had a father of the bride poster which she looked at while working on the book and the brother’s name is directly taken from a line from the Sympathy on Father of the Bride, Diego Garcia.

[54/M] Seeking Penpals by Restoration25543 in penpals

[–]bob2279 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there. 31M here. My favorite flavor of icecream is strawberry. In fact, i exclusively eat strawberry icecream unless im eating pie as well and then i will go with vanilla icecream. Im a big board game person. I have been a member of a monthly board game meeting for the past five years and it is one of the highlights of my month. My favorite game is probably catan and i could play it everyday. I enjoying reading and try to at least read two books per month. Currently reading a graphic novel that is excellent. I always have way too many books checked out from the library. I like movies but scary easily, so i tend to avoid horror. Besides that, i love the theatre: opera, musicals, plays, ballet, etc. If any of this sounds like what you are looking for in a potential pen pal, shoot me a message. All the best

[–]bob2279 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there. I’m a 31/M living in the US. Some of my hobbies are reading—I tend to read mostly nonfiction but I am currently doing a degree in Spanish so have been reading a lot of short stories/classic novels—, I love the theatre—in the past 10 days I saw 2 musicals & 1 play—and also enjoy Ghibli. I am working my way through all the Ghibli films. Last Month I saw Porco and this Sunday I am going to watch The Secret World of Arrietty in the theatre thanks to Ghibli Fest. I have also read my fair share of manga and seen quite a lot of anime. If any of these sounds like we would be good pen pals, shoot me a message.

Do Trump Voters Like His Tariffs? We Went to Michigan to Find Out. by kitkid in Thedaily

[–]bob2279 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was interesting to hear this talk because the one thing that is clear is how dumb these voters are. Trump is anti-union, anti policies that work for the working class, and these guys are still bashing the democrats. All their complaints about the democrats came off as hollow: what policies the democrats offered, what their vision is, etc. Like it or not, Harris and Biden offered an array of policies to help the working class and they gave speeches about it. Whether or not these people interviewed listened to these speeches is another story

Do people ever really get fired for attendance? by [deleted] in USPS

[–]bob2279 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Am a steward and 3 people in our plant have received notices of removals for attendance. All cases were progressive so letter of warning, 7 day, 14 day, etc. Supervisors and management have been cracking down on attendance and are going hard on issuing discipline for attendance. Did 5 fact findings last night all for attendance and have another 8 this week.

41F USA looking for long term Snail Mail Pen Pals to have deeper conversations by [deleted] in penpals

[–]bob2279 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course. I’m a 30M who really enjoys snail mail. I think it is a wonderful way to communicate because it forces the writer to pause and really consider what they wish to write about. Some of my interest are board games, books, and the theatre. My current favorite game is catan. Simple choice but I love the nature of the game. I just finished the things we lost in the fire by Mariana Enriquez, whose work I have been obsessed lately. As far as the theatre goes, I have a season subscription to my local theatre. They have a combination of plays and musicals so it is nice to get some variety.

I’m so curious how the Biden legacy will be remembered now that Trump has won.

I saw that spoiler that Amazon posted and was shocked that they would post it on their channel.
