Announcer voice: “It won’t help.”
When a trailer looks that mediocre, knowing that trailers are often assembled from the best a film can offer, you know it’ll suck.
On iOS, I use and love Paprika.
Growing up in the 1960s, my father was a chainsmoker. I never noticed. It was the water that little fish me swam in.
He quit when I was, I dunno, maybe 12 or 13. Suddenly, I noticed tobacco smoke when I encountered it, and it was revolting. I deeply resented having to work in an office in the 1980s that allowed smoking. I deeply resented restaurants with “smoking sections” that were just a half-wall separating me and smokers. I hated flying, with the stench from the “smoking section” filling my air.
How did I survive? Resentfully.
Some accounts there have recently encouraged traders to keep investing in a fight they said was about “good vs evil” — a way to defend Trump from the liberal elites laughing at him and, by extension, them. The user @BaldylocksUSMC said “the fight has been long and hard on most of us” and that “this stock is not for the weak,” but that one day they would triumph over critics who were “brainwashed beyond repair.”
Ol’ BaldylocksUSMC is such a strong man! Invest more, Baldy! Sell the house, invest the proceeds in DJT! Own me, baby! —The Libs
Why? To make workers fearful. Fearful people are less likely to protest or unionize.
When I cook, I usually salt after tasting. (I’ve recently switched to so-called “light salt”, which substitutes some potassium chloride for sodium chloride.)
When I dine out, seldom — I find most restaurants add enough salt for me.
That tends to happen when you sign a legally-binding contract saying that you will. 🤷♂️
Maybe misspelled “enraged”?
There’s lots of downtime as well and sometimes my biggest trouble is how not to die of boredom listening to my coworkers’ boring stories because they feel offended if I don’t sit with them.
In the grand scheme of things, that seems pretty minor to me, but then it’s not me asking. 😅
Do you feel like the job is preparing you for a better job? I’d concentrate on that — whatever training, certifcates, etc you can add to your resume — while you look for something that seems better. But I’ll point out that unless you know people at those jobs, whose opinions you trust, there’s really no way to know in advance whether you and future co-workers will be a better fit.
Well, points for being transparent, I guess? 🤷♂️
“In high demand”, “pays well”, “is legal”, and “doesn’t require lengthy training and/or edcucation” are usually not a combination that exists.
Fuck me, that’s good blogging!
It’s an interesting line of research, but unless they can completely remove all visual traces of grain, etc, so that it’s very clear, it’s not going to be a replacement for glass in either screens or windows. And I’m skeptical that’s possible.
I’m not suggesting people get complacent. We gotta vote like our democracy depends on preventing another Trump term, because it does.
And gloom & doom about how Trump is polling or Biden is polling, a year in advance of the election, can make people give up and not vote.
Just pointing out that polls aren’t very reliable. “Red Wave 2022” back in 2021, remember?
I doubt it. Polls conducted this early aren’t worth much. People who tend to vote for Democrats may wish for a younger candidate than Biden, but when confronted in the voting booth with a choice of fascism or Biden, most will choose Biden.

Not for the anuses in charge, though.
