It’s good they like feet so much since there’s going to be hundreds of them between this person and public places like schools.

But which pot?
Not my oatmeal pot, or the spaghetti pot

I did not think of that, thanks!

Thanks! I had not factored that in

Would you want the opposite?
I thought heading the bowl will expand it slightly and increase the suction, cooling it will shrink it and reduce it.

The training data thing is so frustrating.
Every service just changed their terms of service to allow it and nobody got in trouble.
- Comment on Will the tariffs lead to a recession? 6 days ago:
A recession is generally defined as two or more quarters with negative GDP growth.
Tariffs will absolutely cause that. They’re going to dampen US growth for years.
That’s only one simple definition though. Broadly I think the answer is still yes, this will cause US job losses, as you’re already seeing in the automotive industry. Job losses result in lower consumer spending, resulting in lower business revenue, and less business expansion and cost cutting, and it can become a reinforcing cycle.
Recessions can be mild or severe, so the jury is still out on whether the US will hold their tariffs, and how quickly the system adapts to the changes.

The bridge town is pretty cool, until the Tenosians show up and throw the nobles off of it.

Man I sure hate the trans agenda of checks notes wanting a place to pee in public without being harassed?
Seriously fuck all this, trans rights are human rights, and insanely easy to accommodate while hurting absolutely no one.

The performance review scene was too real for me. I had to pause because it actually triggered me.
I’ve had too many reviews that are exactly like that, down to the weird ass report and “feedback is a gift” style.

I had cupcakes with that as a kid and they were amazing and I can taste them just linking at this picture

- Comment on Cathy, do the math. 3 weeks ago:
I’m salary or contract, so working overtime is often just doing work without pay.
I’ll do it every now and then to get things done, but I’m never going to make that my normal.
- Comment on Cathy, do the math. 3 weeks ago:
Yes, that is something that really sucks.
Here in Ontario disability gets clawed back as soon as you stop making poverty wages, it’s disgusting.

That’s up there with refusing raises to avoid going up a tax bracket.

I had three weeks off over Christmas this year
Oh my god it was nice
Best of luck tomorrow, may “catching up on emails” be all the excuse you need to avoid being bothered.

Thanks for letting us turn this into a sort of AMA
Your job sounds interesting but I’d be the worst person in the world at it, I do make a good omelette though.

Expected this thread to be kinda weird, but it’s surprisingly wholesome!
I appreciate both the manners and the variety of eggs desired.
OP logistically how does this work? Do you meet your boss at their house? I’ve always wondered how these types of jobs worked.

I didn’t find any reverse search images, so I think OP’s image is original
It looks amazing!

Do you just put eggs in a ramekin and turn the broiler on?
Those look great, look nice and soft and perfect for dipping toast.

Tell him deodorant doesn’t block sweat but anti-perspirant does. There’s a big difference.
Deodorant kills/lessens the odour causing bacteria, so if he’s worried about pheromones or some junk he read/heard online he’ll be fine with deodorant.
Also maybe mention worrying about whether things are manly or not is not particularly manly, but I too went through a phase of trying to figure out what that meant for me.
Probably the most cringe was my teenage attempts to grow a moustache and beard. It did not turn out well. I got an intervention by my boss handing me a razor, escorting me to the washroom, and telling me not to start my shift until I’d shaved.

- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
I grew up where my dad’s family was rich (but not mcmansion country club people) and my moms family was dirt poor. They divorced and I grew up with my mom and saw her struggle to feed us and had to work as soon as I was old enough. I like to think I saw both sides, but definitely had more privilege than most.
Those mcmansion people are the worst. My step dad’s brother was one, and he embezzled his own mother’s life savings and lost them. I’ve met tons of them through my dad’s connections and hearing them talk about how workers always wanted too much while owning multiple homes, new luxury cars, and staying in huge hotel suites was gross (I got brought to a few penthouse parties).
I’ve seen my mom penny pinch, but I never had to feel the struggle that poor people do fully. My grandparents were rich but would always look after people (there was a lineup to my grandpa’s funeral because the church couldn’t fit everyone). Mcmansion rich people are the worst. They can do so much more for their community but they’d rather have stuff and luxury.
