Master using it and you can have this

I’ve read that many people with actual OCD don’t appreciate the condition being bandied about as a catch all for others having hangups over trivial things.

And if anyone thinks safety people never hamstring operations over silly ideas of risk, or turn into little dictators feeding their egos, think again.

I think of them as an extension of HR. Their purpose is to protect companies.

Some of their more asinine findings are merely efforts to show they’re being productive; companies expect returns in all things.

A Canadian Snowbird jet crashed ~2-3 miles from my house. It was Friday evening, fresh home from work, and heard the boom. My ex actually saw it come down.

The Snowbirds had been practicing for an air show over the weekend. Investigation revealed the pilot’s restraint harness had come loose, making him lose control.

I think the plot was lost when the piracy/drm wars reached a peak and set new norms. The ‘talent’ that emerged steadily became performers rather than artists and put out disposable, largely formulaic pop made with protools.

Nearly all the mainstream now are what many would have called sellouts prior to all this.

Maybe there will be a move back to quality over quantity. Granted quality music is still being made, but by and large the current listener just wants to jump from the current sensation to the next after the staleness sets in.

Long story long the internet changed a lot of things, attention spans are eroded, and we’re still learning how to deal with all of it.

Silly goose, everyone knows shrimp is much more valuable than eg–

Heavens to betsy, you’re right

I win! Whoosanext?

I had this problem. If it helps, avocados keep for a good deal longer in the refrigerator.

Ok moron, now warn Gaetz not to withdraw. We all know you don’t want him to pull out anyway

I fail to see any logic with anyone interviewed. They knew things would be worse for Palestine and Lebanon with the donvict, they know they personally may face hardship as a consequence of the election. They know they were duped.

But they wanted to punish Democrats and Harris particularly. Does that satisfaction make the rest of the shit sandwich taste good?

Take heart. Our fellow citizens are slow learners, and few of them have paid close attention to Trump and his shit forsaken privilege in escaping consequences since he left office.

It will be a long wait, but four years of unbridled trump will open a lot of eyes. Let them get a healthy, sustained dose of exactly what they didn’t realize they asked for and then we rebuild.

And don’t give away the House like that. It’s not over yet, and with any luck that guardrail will remain.

Harris had a good start, but she never built on it. She stuck to her talking points and Trump will be worse rhetoric. That’s enough for many of us, but the majority need to be swept away by sensation.

She didn’t humanize herself enough, didn’t show the world who she is. She’s a private, guarded person (as much as a high profile politician can be) and a lot of people think that makes her unlikable. Unfortunately presidential candidates need to be well liked to succeed.

Mmmhmm, the old Roseanne excuse. Didn’t stop her getting fired.

The FBI traced this to Russia

Trump is a Christian charlatan, anyone can see that.

In the face of overwhelming evidence against the fables in their book, even a charlatan offers comfort that they’re still special, still virtuous and righteous.

It’s a sad state of affairs for people who are willfully ignorant, terrified they might not be as special as they think.

I can attest to you being half right based on my two Puerto Rican coworkers, both Trumpers.

One rationalized his choice by saying two things (paraphrasing his words):

1. Puerto Ricans have the same trash sentiment about Dominicans and aren’t shy about it. So since they dish it out, they should be able to take it.

2. He decided Puerto Rico is trash because the government is corrupt and pockets all the US federal funding.

It didn’t bother him that Tony Hinchcliffe, or Trump’s campaign at large has no place saying these things.

The other coworker has changed his mind and is NOT ok with the comments. It may be too late since he probably already voted; I’m not going to ask him.

He meant to take it up with the other FEC, Fuckheads Escaping to Cancún

On a driving business trip, it came as a shock to some of my white coworkers that some of our black coworkers did NOT want to hit up Cracker Barrel for breakfast. A little learning took place that day.

But all things considered, if there were such a place as Soul Power Breakfast Kitchen , I (mostly white) would stop in and expect deliciousness!

Does corporate not make money from franchises? Honest question because I thought it worked that way.

Ah yes, damage control. You chose this, Mickey D’s, now would a sales slump ‘resonate’ with your shareholder clowns?
