We were on opposite shifts, both supervisors. During shift turnover the very first he thing he would do is go thru workload and nitpick “why didn’t you do this?” and then continually question my response “well you could have just cloned yourself into two people?” basically he was never happy with our work unless-really he was unhappy and blamed me directly if there was any work at all for him to do during day shift. Then, he would complain to the bigger boss all day long about we were lazy. Meanwhile when I cam in to turnover I basically never did this and would just what the workload was and so my other things before letting them go.

If I did try to argue “why didnt you do x” it almost inevitably ended with the bigger boss telling me to fuck off and that they “worked so hard”, they didn’t.

And it just went on and on like this. He loved to take credit for other people’s work, wouldn’t take responsibility for his own mistakes, would avoid direct confrontation if a bigger boss wasn’t around to back him up, basically I strongly disliked him and his lack of good faith teamwork.

I think there is a lot of misunderstanding in the world about the scale of the USA’s problems, what individuals in the military do, what caused them enlist, how our population is orders of magnitude greater than most nations and how that has such a powerful effect and consequence to our democracy / republic.

I dont go around making these wild claims about other nations but many folks outside US see no issue for to make uninformed, inflammatory statements about us.

Its easy for them say : military bad Its true but not comprehensively true, as if it would be so easy for us to just stop. This shit is an incomprehensible large machine that has inertia…and it truly truly sucks. But can we please prioritize blaming and holding accountable the mother fuckers making these damn decisions instead of a mother fucking janitor or an accountant or truly does fuck all and definitely isnt killing anyone.

No doubt…unquestionably so, there will be investigations, eventually into the nature of attacks recently thst led to innocent lives being killed-- hopefully it is public enough for us to peer inside those happenings…

I am somewhat liberal and so I personally do not support state sponsored death penalties; however, I do wish the nation I am a citizen of would be more progressive, less war prone, and yes stop bombing other countries.
Especially death penalties for people with little to no agency.

Great looking animal

Also that’s a great looking storage bin, do you mind sharing the details of the storage bin?

I am into durable classy storage bins lately

Thanks

I exist mostly without relationships. I can barely fathom living with one romantic person. If that person then was able to execute sexual acts with others on a regular basis with relative ease I dont think we’d be compatible because our lives would be too different, experiences too different.

I can imagine, however, a different scenario wherein both of us pay for professional, independent sex workers occasionally-primarily themselves that are also adept in therapeutic massage. Maybe. But still it does seem like an odd zeitgeist for romantic relationships right now.

I agree I dont see the reason for the hype.

I sure would like to go to the moon, maybe, but I wouldnt claim that my being there was special or impactful to the world other than I had a very privileged experience.

Someone mentioned to me that going to the moon is like the greatest thing we’ve ever done. I just dont think so. And it seems the answers I get to the question of why is it good is never very clear.

People seem to indicate something along the lines of

People going into space is a departure from Earth. And it was so hard. And it still is hard. All the calculations that must be accurate, all the technology, the difficulty of zero gravity on the body…we can spread humanity into the stars…(we are no were near that) think about the science (what about it?)

Things being difficult does not equal greatness or positive impact.

The thing that is good for sure, is technology innovation that impacts other areas than space.

Another thing that may be good is, having a moon colony. (There is a plan) But I havent looked into Artemis so much to see how much this trip is doing to forward that plan, if any.

Satellites great and all that. More knowledge about the moon and space great-but how much is the human needed, unless establishing a colony, like 80% of the good things about going to the moon you dont need people, unmanned.

John Snow arguably had more positive impact on humanity than all the moon efforts combined.

Its true that I am also not super into space exploration, so Im sure I lack a lot of knowledge but this is my opinion now.

The image presents us with a view of five organisms, implicitly these are cats. It has been said that when fire erupted in Ancient Egypt the citizens would have to stand guard aroind buildings, at intervals to prevent the cat from a ‘divine seizure’ as the cats would rush into the burning buildings, killing them. (Herodotus) Would that this were the case in our time, I ought do the same for these cats as your photograph has presented them in a kindly and genuine fashion such that I want not for them to burn or any other calamity.

I quite like how they are seen to even exceed the politeness of many humans, they are socially distanced exquisitely, whereas many people-in my experience-are absent skills and politeness in small and/or large social settings. However, it has occurred to me that they are eating-which changes the view, at least a little.

This was a nice thing for me to see today, Thanks

That is very kind of you considering your neighbors privacy, we certainly could use some more of that in today’s age of fast-short-unfulfilling media (insta/tik tok).

I certainly did not mean anything negative, I am just tying to contribute, and I quite like cats so I am trying to encourage those who are posting because it makes me a little bit less sad!

My one and only cat-mane coon-- I had-I had for a short time. He was Benny. Father did not like him so much, one day he got out and no one did anything about it.

I hope he was happier. He used to climb in bed and wake up with me before work at 4 or so A.M. I think he was an ‘aggressive lover’ maybe in the way he expressed himself, and thst caused some annoyance to the Father.

Ill bet going outside for Miez was a very exciting part of his life, a new experience

I like to fantasize about owning a cat.

I like to think I could train them to sit atop my head while I walk around the house cleaning or in the neighborhood.

This would be a great cat for atop-the-head placement.

Excellent post thank you

I would like to have a coffee out on that yard with a cat so handsome as this one.

Review: Scenery: 8/10 Great tree, beautiful color of foliage, perhaps the angle could expose more of the open space Subject: 9/10 Not too sure what would make it 10/10 but I think the cat expresses maturity, politeness, strength of health and bravery. It is a fearless organism worthy of respect. And he or she whom they love is also worthy of a similar respect.

Thank you I enjoyed viewing this

I appreciate the idea of this post, thanks.

Good post

Isn’t a bug that I can still view the content of your message or a feature?

I love Indoor climbing

My gym has a few crack features, crack climbing is a niche within a niche. It is very different from face (‘regular’) rock climbing. It sucks yoyr energy out like typhoon would hit something with a lot of force. Feels like wrestling or mountain climbing (as opposed to rock climbing).

It’s super fun though, its just very humbling for a face climber or a boulderer like myself.

I would say most indoor climbers to not do crack. Crack is for outdoors people and then a lot outdoors people probably avoid crack as well.

Me? When I do have a belay partner im jamming my hands in that crack and not even finishing, it feels grueling its very satisfying.
