I was watching that dude’s video that sailed from Oregon to Hawaii with his cat, and he got a care package via helicopter from someone n he couldn’t read the note because it was in cursive. Like I know we don’t teach cursive anymore, but l feel like it’s close enough to figure it out for reading. It really blew my mind that a 20 something year old couldn’t read something written in English.

Tbh, it’s worldwide because Russia seeks out stories like this everywhere and fans the flames online in their troll farms. I wish there was a way to stop it.
- Comment on Why do some people hate drinking water? 1 week ago:
My friend from work doesn’t drink water. Like. At all. She drinks Diet coke like all day. She’s in her 50’s and has a ton of health issues. I don’t think that’s a coincidence.

- Comment on The joy of quitting a shit job with an asshole boss 2 weeks ago:
I have attempted the 2 week’s notice 3 times. Only 1 of which have I actually made it to the end. First job in HS, I had no bad blood, but it was a union shop that paid like .10 over min wage. When the union tried to shake me down for dues (of which they wanted like 2 check’s worth of money since I was the Lowest level and only working part time) I told them no thank you, put in 2 weeks notice, worked til the end.
2nd job it was the end of high school, 2 weeks notice was in bc off to college. The company fires my boss, then I tell his replacement I need x and y days off next week for grad night/ graduation related activities. I show up the next day and it’s a different guy working who made the schedule without talking to anyone apparently. I told him I had asked the other lady for X and Y days off. “Well, right now you’re scheduled to work, if you want those days off, you’re going to need to get someone to cover your shift.”
I’m good chief, I’ll take my last check please.
The other one I had the new job desperately needing help and wanting me to start ASAP, so I worked it out where I was going to grind a 60+ hr week where I’d train in the AM at the new job and take a late shift at the old job. The 2nd day I was burnt out asf. I walk into the old job at 6 pm after grinding 8 hrs at the new job to a severely understaffed store and I was supposed to close down with the worst fellow supervisor we had. She was a very sweet older lady, but she was just slow at absolutely everything she did. I knew that closing with her while short a cashier and a bagger meant I’d be doing double/ triple duty that night and getting out an hour later than usual. I just said fuck this shit and bounced. I made up some sob story about personal issues going on to not completely burn that bridge and actually kept eligibility for rehire, but I was fucking done with that place.

- Comment on To join Facebook these days, one must record a video selfie 3 weeks ago:
Nextdoor is the place I buy / sell secondhand goods. I signed up years ago, but the way they verified you then was you gave an address and they mailed you a post card. It is still a hassle, but imo it keeps the bots out which is nice. A lot less scammers on there.

I feel like the only people that bought were influencers who made reviews on YouTube and promptly returned them.
- Comment on Musk’s AI bot Grok blames ‘programming error’ for its Holocaust denial 5 weeks ago:
Grok was replying to random questions of completely unrelated topics with a diatribe about South African white genocide, so we all got to witness it be tampered with in front of our eyes.

Honestly, just let the Simpsons die already. No one watches it anymore, and those that do say it’s not good.

Interesting. I still think too much time has passed to make a spinoff of the office. Maybe I’ll be proven wrong.

Found it. 4 minute mark. Weird to think Alex Jones was on George W. Bush protest song unironically
- Comment on This was Alex Jones once 1 month ago:
This was sampled in a hip hop song, and I’m only now realizing it was Alex fucking Jones. I can’t remember who, but at 0:23 I was like I’ve definitely heard this rant before, and now it’s gonna drive me nuts til I find the song.

My stare does it too, but there’s still plenty of other things that come in paper or plastic bags that I use for garbage i.e. takeout, etc that I’ve still got the same box of trash bags I bought like 8 years ago. Very rarely to I use an actual trash bag.

She just sent me a picture of the new one of the ones that I had to do it was a good thing to do it was a good thing to do it was a good idea to get a new one of the ones that I have a few years ago but I don’t think they have any of the other ones that I can do it for now but I can do it but I don’t think they have any of them but they are not in the same place as a little bit more than the last one
