Could also be job postings to convince current workers that their overwork will soon end because the company is about to hire new folks. I’ve seen that theory floated to explain the “help wanted” signs at fast food places that never come down.

I’m too pale AF to have a loving relationship with the sun. I’ve been burned too many times. I always use protection, but last weekend the sunscreen failed me :(

They have butter for their hot cakes. Sounds like it was adding butter packets to the order.

It was surprisingly easy to get my dextroamphetamine prescription through a (local) telehealth doctor. Of course, I know I have ADHD because I’m not addicted to the meds and, in fact, keep forgetting to take then.

The cheese stands alone

My dad used to disable the motherboard speaker because the noises games made back then were more annoying than fun. We eventually got a soundcard, and that was awesome.

Yep. That’s why I’m here again. My reddit app may work for now, but the writing is on the wall in bigger, bolder letters.

This last election, I googled the candidates and voted for the ones that hadn’t tried to ban books at the local library.

No, Joey hasn’t been updated since Reddit said they were pulling the plug last year. It just… kept working.

It always weirds me out that the first school shooting I remember occurred a few bit over a year before Columbine. Heath High School, December 1997.

Drunk driving isn’t an accident.

My mobile app (Joey) still works for me. I think it’s because I’m a moderator on a subreddit. I occasionally visit Reddit, but not nearly as much as I used to.

I like to think she knew the limitations of her roommate.

Funnily enough, now that she’s passed away, we hide bits of boiled chicken around the house as enrichment for Tiny Butthead. We call it "chicken fairy"ing and he gets a kick out of hunting through the house.

Mine would hide his treat until he was ready to eat it. Sometimes he’d hide it in our other dog’s bed, then be all shocked Pikachu when it wasn’t there later.

Look into textured vegetable protein, too. It doesn’t have much taste of its own, but gives a ground-beef-like texture when you add it to pasta sauce. Wicked cheap, when you take into account that it’s dehydrated.

Edit: good room temperature shelf life, too.

I wonder how much of the rise in reported latex allergies is the prevalence of tire bits in the environment. Iirc, some of the rise is from increased awareness and some is it attributed to increased latex glove usage in medical settings due to the AIDS epidemic. But are tires also a relevant factor?

(Am latex sensitive, have never used latex gloves even in an educational setting because my high school chem teacher was allergic so we had nitrile in the lab)

Even those in heterosexual relationships could be bi.

Witnesses don’t have to attend all 4+months of the trial, only days they’re needed/scheduled to attend.

My understanding:

• you: the person I’m talking to
• y’all: the group of folks I’m talking to
• all y’all: y’all, plus anyone else that could possibly be addressed by me (everyone in voice range)

(Agreeing and using different words to say the what I think is the same thing)
