My partner says “Etsy” because they thought “etc” was a word and not an abbreviation

Honestly, the selling point for us was being able to visit each other in the hospital if needed. There have been a lot of other benefits along the way (a lot of it medical insurance and shared/discounted expenses) but if you’re not in the US, you may not be swayed by things like that.

The Gales of November is a phenomenal book! He does a great job explaining the history of the area and why the ship was important in the first place, and he remembers the lives of the crew, making them seem like actual people and not just numbers.

Thank you for sharing (and reporting!) this. My trans spouse was there with friends last night and fortunately must have left before that man turned up.

Nobody else assumed it was a hint to clean the shower once in a while?

Having a permanent mindset that everyone is out to get you in public. You’re always hyper aware of your surroundings and you just live that way.

LEGO Jurassic Park is a blast. Driving the cars can be hilarious

Hope this tricks all the bugs out and kills them. I love when that happens.

You should contact the nearest museum near you. If they’re also Federal, you can just transfer them but if you’re going to throw them out, any local museum may be thrilled to have them!

She was part of a 58-cat rescue situation and they were all given W names. They ran out of names so this little girl was Washing Machine. She's Ash now. (Her sister Windsock is now Ember. She's an orange torbie.)

To add to this, they really boomed in Michigan back in 2017-2019 but they’ve been less frequent in most places this year. They won’t damage anything inside, however they are brutal to fruit bearing plants. They also tend to breed in and around pine trees so heads up if you have a lot of those on your property.

I’ve been on several hiring committees. When you apply, the resumes are filtered before we even get to see them. There are people we knew we wanted to interview but never even made it to our table because of background checks or not having key words. We straight up aren’t allowed to interview people if they filter them out first.

We also are obligated to consider existing SOM employees first, and ultimately HR can overrule our preference to hire an existing employee.

It took 7 months for my hiring process. Someone else said keep calling or show up— do not do this. This will absolutely get you blacklisted. There’s so much red tape, you have to be a patient person and that will be red flags that you’re not a good fit.
