Hikes definitely need gear. A water bottle is gear

“Mountain climbing” is so generic. I’ve climbed plenty of mountains. Half of them were a nice, leisurely 1-3 hour hike requiring nothing more than a free afternoon, a water bottle and a day pack with a couple snacks.

Wonderful combo that.
Maybe this is my pedantry showing – I would say not THC alone, but cannabis in general. I like my THC at a low-ish level, and balanced out by the other cannabinoids and terpenes, for a full-spectrum entourage effect.

I don’t WFH, not anymore, so now I chore remotely

They were yuge! Yoomungus! Guys would come up to me with tears in their eyes (these were strong, burly MEN) and they would say “these bills are too big Mr. President! We need bigger pockets mr. President! Please help us!!”

Unfortunately there are just enough asshats there to taint the entire userbase. I find myself looking askance at any @lemmy.ml, also @hexbear - IMO it’s well deserved. I’d recommend another instance besides those if you want to be taken seriously.

Is there another kind?
- Comment on Checkmate, officer! 2 weeks ago:
No. I’d say that we should have that, but knowing our track record for such things it would probably actively harm privacy and cost more than it’s worth.
Maybe some states do have that, idk. Not mine though. That’s the biggest issue, each state having their own separate system for ID.
“REAL ID” was an attempt to form a national standard and it’s been a total clusterfuck with basically no benefit to the average person, except now you can’t fly without one.
(You actually can get a sort of digital version of REAL ID after paying a $45 “fuck you” fee, but it only works at the TSA checkpoints at the airport, using their app, which also seems like a fucking terrible idea. I will continue to print my paper boarding passes and go through security with my phone turned off and placed inside a verified-working Faraday bag.)

“organic synthetic” is a nice touch. Reminds me of seeing “organic” salt somewhere

It’s pretty good except for the money printing and federal control aspect. A global currency which belongs to the people seems desperately needed.

I’m entering a phase where I’m not sure if the red arrow is pointing at nothing, or at something I’m just too old to understand/notice/care about

Still not understanding what would prevent you from both selecting primary. A US company cannot reach into a whole other company’s employee records, right? Not without you volunteering that info. I suppose it might be legal to require that info as a condition of that specific type of leave, knowing the US lol. Or if the leave is arranged through the state or shared third-party HR platform I could see how that might automatically sync up.
The place I work for barely knows my wife and kid exist because they’re on my insurance plan. They don’t know if my wife even works, nevermind who she works for and how much time off she’s taking. I just am having trouble trying to imagine giving that level of detail voluntarily unless my arm was twisted.

This has the same energy as those guys who go on niche hobby forums looking for “easy steps” thinking they’re going to get rich quick doing something that takes years to refine, but actually they will end up buying the wrong chemical or some shit and end up disfigured for life after inhaling the deadly gases that the “nerds” online repeatedly warned them about

Correct, it’s important to remember that.
“balls in the chute/you’re a fruit” “balls merely clap together/you’re a straight chap forever”
That’s what me and the boys used to sing all day and night to remind ourselves.

My brother-in-law is like that. Has the kids on the weekends (yup) and refers to it as “babysitting”… his own children. I know he must see all that I do for mine. It makes me nauseous, but I try not to get involved.
- Comment on She only wanted the ring bros 1 month ago:
You can just lie, no? My employer doesn’t get to know the employment status of my spouse; she doesn’t work for them. Seems like an invasion of privacy, but I could be misunderstanding the policy. If both companies have that same policy does it cause an infinite loop? 😆

That probably happens somewhere not on the Internet

The only shaming I’ve seen in this thread so far is of the parents who made that decision, and rightly so. People like the guy you replied to are perpetuating the issue by being so nonchalant about it.
