  My dad is genX and uses it the same way. I have explained it to him multiple times that it’s like sighing at someone.

  I don’t want to simp for Target too much, but the union DCs I’ve been in seem to treat their employees pretty good. No idea about the stores though, I’ve only seen their distribution centers.

  Oregon valley is 4.25 for grade A from costco and winco was 4.50. Its up about 0.50 in the last few weeks.

  Good thing the orange one will fix those prices soon by doing a something at some point…

  It’s worse than I could’ve imagined. The dipshit literally gets giddy and throws the nazi salute twice. This is nowhere near a strangely timed photo.

  Yep. Winter tires stay soft at lower temperatures increasing static and dynamic frictions in winter conditions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Contributing to the local economy⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Totally incorrect for both posts. A geo with winter tires is better in the snow than a truck on 40 inch mud tires. Winter tires feel like turning on the cheat codes when it’s slick. They have like 10 times the grip of good all seasons below freezing.

  I drive on unmaintained roads a lot in the winter. The hakapelitas on my truck let me drive in 2wd until the snow is a foot deep.

  The problem both of your opinions have is they ignore the baseline improved treatment straight white dudes like myself get. We get better treatment and preferential hiring just by existing. I’m not afraid to talk to anyone in the tiny sithole towns I go to for work. I’ve have so many people walk past my boss and talk to me because he wears a turban, or my other boss getting talked over because she is a women. These examples aren’t directly related to hiring, but you are blind if you don’t see the obvious advantages we have.

  Altria, formerly Philip Morris, still allows smoking in their building as of a few years ago. It’s trippy to book a non-smoking room in the 2020s.

  Yeah it’s not as bad as asbestos. I think it will be similar to lead paint. Bad for you, but not downright dangerous.

  My bet is Hardi board will be the next one. Concrete dust causes silicosis. In industrial construction allowable concrete dust is basically zero. Residential construction people are sawing and grinding this concrete siding all the time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This split sink⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s getting less common because it looks cleaner and functions better to have the divider flush with the sides. My sink is flat on top and it’s better because I can set what I’m washing out of the sink. It does get scratched up over time though.

  Cheap sinks have the rim they are describing. Expensive sinks usually have a low or no divider. It’s the mid teir that is going flush on top for some reason. It’s a completely useless feature IMO that makes the sink less useful.

  Don’t ever use leifs. Bloodsucking vampire of a company, high pressure sales tactics included.

  Not a hard question to answer when you remember how ridiculously stupid he is. I’ve been calling him stupid for a decade and I’m finally cashing in. Dude has accidentally succeeded a couple times and thinks he’s tony stark. Of course he’s going to say the dumbest shit imaginable because he thinks he’s smart so how could his thoughts be dumb?
