Oh, that’s good. This industry is definitely not my area! Hearing about folks working 40+ hours but being paid for 10 got my back up.

Yes. Especially after her fiancee admitted bullying someone so badly they moved, and they reassured him that he was a child, not fully formed; but her making a plan at that age after being bullied and that she didn’t follow through on was…. worse?? GTFOH.

That’s fun! And I found one word no one else did today which is bonkers. Did I miss the outlier or do they tell it tomorrow after everyone’s played? I need to look.

Same for me when I was in college in Colorado. For those in the born in late 60s-early 70s check with your insurance to see if they cover antibody testing. It turned out mine didn’t and it was several hundred dollars. I should have just asked for a booster shot which would have been covered.

We use PCs and when I download photos they show up all right, but anything that requires a jpg you’re right it has to be run through software. But I don’t know if there’s a quick way for it in the iOS. wooooo siloed systems!

Where is this setting?? I don’t know this was possible and a quick swing through camera and photos settings wasn’t helpful

Floating year? 😀 yeah my time zone issue definitely does not apply here.

Maybe it’s set for a floating time zone, and if you’re traveling it gets confused which to use? I had to get stricter with mine.

Not old and grand but Herbsaint is my favorite. Haven’t been to commander’s palace in a while but it was solid.

The explanation of the piece was great though! At first I didn’t get why Warhol and Picasso were in there too.

Huh, an AI company stole work without approval or compensation?? this is my shocked face. Note the double mouth on the dog. The audacity for a company named Artisan to do this. I hope they go under and am looking forward to photos of the creative vandalism that will be happening to these ads.

I had to retype many pages when a word or two in the last line would go past the allowable margin.

My pencil/pen groove on my second finger disappeared but I don’t know when! Worst part of those error-free typed essays was the footnote formatting.

That's happening in my sister's district, too. It boggles my mind. Why take a class if you don't want to learn the content?? What does your admin say about scoring kids who don't do the work? Prompt credit of 5%?

Oh I will need to rewatch this. Back in the VCR days I spent time fast forwarding and rewinding to watch the story in chronological order. I was disappointed that wasn't offered as an extra on the DVD, it was really interesting.

I’d love repairable tech and I miss the headphone jack. The smallest nano iPod (6?) was my favorite but wasn’t fixable when the screen interface started acting up.

The nap after is THE best. I also set up the rice steamer before I left and had fresh rice and a scrambled egg when I got home for something easy on the stomach pre-nap.

HRT helped the hot flushes and some of the joint pain but none of the brain fog. Grrrrrrr.

I fucking hate it. I used to be smart, these days my brain activity seems mostly like soft static hissing. I really hope it goes away.

A friend had half a loaded cookie once, started walking home, got the munchies on the way and ate the other half. When she got home to change clothes and never showed up for the next event we asked her later what happened and she told us "that's when the leprechauns came," OK then!
