When I was in college and everyone was talking about where they grew up, and I realized I only remembered bits and pieces of growing up, and those were always when my parents weren’t around. Some online searching later and a talk with a therapist, and I don’t talk with my parents anymore. It’s better that way.

My employer pays for mine, so free.

Before that was $20/month for unlimited everything with tethering in the US.

I’m a sound engineer, I have to go to concerts, it’s kind of my job.

In theory, however the ability to break up the year into smaller chunks is very handy for our monkey brains. Small number easy, big number hard.

I would love to be on the international fixed calendar, but the rest of the world would look at me weird.

Getting ready to buy as many stocks as I can, I need a retirement plan, and if I can get in while markets are low, I can retire in 10 years.

The people in power will lose their power if we did, so we won’t.

Wait so I still get to do this as a career? And I’m considered an expert in the field?!?

Yea that makes sense about my knees and back hurting.

I am all for a period of time, I do not think it should be at the death of the artist but a set time from creation date. Say 10-15 years, gives the artist time to make their money, while not locking the creativity behind money.

Jokes on you I saw the XcQ

Are these the trains people the Republicans are so worried about?

I took a different approach, I put my keys on a carabiner so I jingle when I walk. It makes it really hard to accidentally startle people.

How much you want to bet we’re going to start having military parades to “show off our strength”.

The US doesn’t do military parades. George Orwell said it best in 1941, “Why is the goose-step not used in England? There are, heaven knows, plenty of army officers who would be only too glad to introduce some such thing. It is not used because the people in the street would laugh. Beyond a certain point, military display is only possible in countries where the common people dare not laugh at the army.”

Part of my job involves operate hoists that are lifting several tonnes over the general public. Anything that is even impairment adjacent, like being tired, will get you removed from that position. If you are actually impaired you’re fired no questions.

I used to do my hobby as a full time job, I realized I didn’t enjoy it as much when it was my job so I switched careers so I could still enjoy it.

When the Ukraine war kicked off I called the Ukrainian embassy in my country and let them know that my upstairs bedrooms were empty, and that if they could get the people to the US, I could house some. Then I called all of my representatives and senators and asked for refugee status for Ukrainian citizens.

In the end because of political fuckery I didn’t end up hosting any Ukrainians, but my coworker who’s from Ukraine was able to get her family over here.

In the middle of the night with nary a sound to be heard.

I’ve always wanted to do van life. Can I come?

Apparently soldier deaths were gods way of punishing the US for not being more religious or something.
