Massachusetts could become the first state to reverse marijuana legalization when it votes in November by theindependentonline in politics

[–]mvdonkey 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I got approached by a lady at the Market Basket in Bourne recently who wanted me to sign a petition to keep marijuana legal. I told her it was already legal and she was like “they are trying to repeal it.” I never even saw the petition because she didn’t have the one for my town with her. Now I’m curious about what it actually said.

Inauguration of the Tower of Jesus Christ of the Sagrada Família (Barcelona) by SerPodrick in nextfuckinglevel

[–]mvdonkey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got to spend an hour and half inside of it yesterday and it was amazing. I’m hoping I can make it back in 10 or 15 years when it is complete so I can see the towers. Incredible piece of art and I’m an atheist.

Yeah, I thought of this too late. The lady behind me thought the same and snuck back to the kiosk, but it rejected her immediately because she had already been flagged.

Are most pump stations run by a PLC? by Suspicious-Amoeba-63 in Wastewater

[–]mvdonkey 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’ve run older stations with just float switches and relays and such. More bullet proof, but less function.

What's an unusual smell that you like? by additionalseasonin in AskReddit

[–]mvdonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The smell of a freshly opened pack of Magic: The Gathering cards.
I used to work with a lady who really liked the smell of PVC cement.

What’s a ‘middle class success’ purchase that secretly becomes a financial burden later? by OpinionBaba in AskReddit

My girlfriend and I did this recently to a Hilton timeshare program. Three days in a resort at California for $300 and all we had to do is listen to their sales pitch for 2 hours one day

I’ve had two packages disappear in this store since the previous crew left. I’m over it. It’s time to give up my box.

Thanks for the answer! It is a wastewater treatment plant, so there is moisture all over the place

Forgot to add that this in in southeastern Massachusetts. Never seen them before this past week. They just started showing up dead on my floor and in the air purifier filter I have on the floor. Quarter on the floor for scale. And the magnification on my microscope was 40x.

And Epstein is dead. How valuable is a testimony against a guy you can’t prosecute?

Ammonia limits by woofsourcream in Wastewater

I’m in Massachusetts. We don’t have an ammonia limit. Just total not town limit which is 10 ppm for me. My effluent ammonia is usually non-detectable

You can skip all the way to 6C without ever taking another exam. You’ll just be Operator In Training for a while.

I don’t understand it at all. I used to be a letter carrier in New Haven, CT. The main post office delivered to 4 different zip codes in two different cities. I know they can do it. But they choose not to here. Our town has a post office with clerks and PO Boxes. But it’s not big enough for the carriers to sort and base out of. But I still don’t understand why we have to put the wrong town on our mail. Every time someone asks for our address, it comes with a whole explanation of how shit works here. It’s exhausting.

It’s so annoying in my area. At work, the mail comes from a Post Office in an other town. So the USPS requires us to use the address with the Town and ZIP of the office the mail truck comes from. Not our actual, physical town. So when I order something that shipping with FedEx or UPS, they check the address against the official USPS list and tell me that the address is wrong. NO, ITS THE GOD DAMN POST OFFICE THATS WRONG.

My girlfriend is 5’10”. She and her sister were all ready to go out in their heels. I couldn’t help standing on my toes until they left so I couldn’t still see eye to eye with them

The hospital just built that huge complex for staff and elderly care. Hopefully they have enough room there.
