I pretty much had to set a limit with my wife. Like you can have these 4 giant tote bins filled with yarn supplies and two baskets of projects in progress but if you want more than that you have to give some away.

I had to make a boundary because it was getting out of hand.

The ancient wonders series or whatever they’re called is wild too. It’s like some kind of unified conspiracy theory adventure.

If blue no matter who worked, the Democrats would have won. So that’s obviously not a thing.

It is one of the best games I’ve played this year. Really easy to get into for short bits, I pirated it first, played for a few hours on PC, bought it, played it for a few dozen more, and happily bought it for my phone.

Really good, very addictive

Your average Vince Flynn novel lmao

Say it with me now:

Semi recently had mine try to take me through a private business parking lot which was entirely fenced off, and didn’t even connect on the other side. That was… confusing, to say the least.

So that we feel vindicated in actually owning your productive time. So that management can show they add value by watching you work.

I’m constantly preaching that “we don’t work in a widget factory, there is only the work there is to do, and if it’s all done, wtf are you complaining about? Asses in seats does not correlate to work completed. As long as we’re available to complete tasks, you’re getting what you’re paying for.”

My management prizes my ability to write complex things ina professional and easily digestible manner. However part of that process might look like I’m doing nothing at all, while I’ve got a half a draft written and I’m just sitting there for an hour and a half doing sudoku puzzles while what I’ve written vs what I need to say percolates in my brain. And yet I have to be cautious about it because some of them are convinced we work in a widget factory, where ass in seat and hands on keyboard equals work produced.

Right? Shocker, I’m able to listen to a thing actively and vocally contribute while doing something mindless like doing/folding laundry or making food because they use different parts of my brain.

The meat mech is capable of doing something physical with no thought, while engaging language processing for something else.

The United States went so hard on being anti-communist that we became anti community.

They tend towards toxic attitudes about work and work/life balance.

This. My phone camera takes ultra high resolution pictures then algorithmically processes them. They look more beautiful and real than reality.

The biggest change when we got new window AC units was how much more quiet they are.

Some asshole had the idea to water a seed and now I have to pay taxes. Fuck that guy.

24hr clock supremacy

Do acid, it’s cheap as fuck, lasts 12 hours, is generally a great time, and will allow introspection about your life

As far as the legal and historical precedent goes - we fought a war over it.
