Mostly scraping by but also shopping for my next house after selling my first right before the market crashed. Worked a lot of 70+ hour weeks that year. Had 2x car accidents (neither my fault) that totaled out my cars, both of which netted me more than I had spent on the cars in the first place.

If you get to a human who cares, they often can, but it’s even harder now that AI is in the picture.

AI is taking customer service jobs by storm because 80% of the tasks they do are answering the same questions over and over for Grandma who can’t remember how to turn on the TeeVee.

For men over 50, it’s both!

Lol whut. Maybe you are just joking, but finding a random rifle isn’t exactly just a common occurrence. They’re expensive and it’s not like people who own them like to leave them in the woods for storage.

I love some connected devices, and own a LOT of them, but some things are just stupid. I don’t need my blender to be connected. Washer, dryer? Unless it’s going to move my laundry from one to the other, nope. Stove, wtf? I have to go stir anyway so who gives a crap.

The people in power all see this as an absolute win. The things they’re trying to do about it is hire more ICE agents. It’s going to take a while before this blows up, and the only real way out of it is to hope that we have elections in a few years.

Sort of disappointed that I had to scroll this far…

Did you miss out on the fact that you can’t swing a dead cat without hitting multiple microbreweries in the USA? I swear that one of my locals has a microbrewery inside of the microbrewery…

I’m actually thankful. It’s good to know a little about the bleeding edge of science, and there presumably are people who really do understand it. The fact that I don’t, means that there are smart, passionate people out there doing the work. Not every show needs to cater to the lowest common denominator.

They’re definitely building on each other, but they’re definitely ELIApplyingForMyDocotrate degree.

I don’t think it’s on purpose. He got his before the vasy majority knew what a shithead Musk is.

He spends WAY too long on parting sections of his stock. /s

I love watching Spacetime, but also feel like dum-dum-brain after watch. Me no think good enough to watch this show.

Total time for loading is broken up over quite a few meals for me (usually). It also can take a little time extra if you have to do some extra drying on unloading. That said, it’s probably 20 minutes total AND uses less water AND means that I don’t have to do the majority of the work. I love my dishwasher.

No, the 1911 is the best because it fits in the hand. #singlestackgang. Also because it’s “cool” and pretty darn reliable.

We spend a LOT of time at the local parks. I’ll guess you don’t have kids. Sometimes it rains, other times it’s cold, sometimes you need to get them to just put SOMETHING in their stomachs, because if they don’t, they’ll get hangry but don’t have the emotional or bodily intelligence to understand what’s going on.

ChickFilA also has playplaces but they have their own set of issues.

So, their own food?

This is only half bullshit. Quality is through the bottom level of hell on every metric at McDonalds. The ONLY reason I go is because they have a kids playplace. The app is essentially required, but sucks ass for usability. They took the soda machines out of most of them so free refills are basically gone, the prices are rediculous and the food sucks. Also, people are tightening belts because Trump (WHO MCDONALDS SUPPORTED) is an idiot.

Boycotting stupidity? How would that even work?!?
