    It also seems to me that people on a regular schedule that doesn’t change much day to day are just generally in a better state of mind. Sleeping consistent hours with a usual wake up/bedtime, knowing reasonably far in advance when you’ll need to be at work so you can schedule appointments/errands/adult life…

    I mean...

    People can be really smart about some stuff and clueless about one tiny insignificant thing. Take this example: I have a round wooden cutting board that has a small round indentation in it, presumably for momentarily storing bits of whatever you’re chopping. I use this board when I’m cutting pizza so that I don’t…

    I worked in fast food when scheduling was done by hand by the store manager and it’s remarkable how much of a different feel it was when we had a predictable schedule, especially at the shift manager level, because it meant restaurant standards were maintained consistently. If it made that much difference at a goddamn…

    Edit: because I know this is going to dissolve into gap-bashing.

    Nah, it’s easier to just call employees “team members” as an empty gesture and then treat them like shit.

    You might not like his personal style, but it was composed to make a statement. Did it do that? Will you remember this?

    This is purely anecdotal but I was in Sacramento this past weekend, and just from speaking to strangers, it seems like the majority of people were condemning the police actions and were supportive of stephon Clark. I know this doesn’t necessarily mean anything, but I hope it does.

    You can also spray them down with a vodka/water mixture (obviously its the plastic jug with a handle variety of vodka). Dance companies have been doing that for decades with their costumes.

    Yep, this. Either the person knows how to take the test or something could be untrue but the person taking the test BELIEVES it to be true. Either way could easily pass and still be wrong.

    I know nothing about guns, but one of my first patients in my clinical rounds as a nurse was a big biker guy who stuffed his pistol into his waistband like that. He was surprisingly upbeat about shooting himself.

    Appendix carry can be safe enough with a properly designed holster, particularly if the pistol’s carried without a round in the chamber. Improvisations like pockets or waistbands are generally considered unsafe.

    Yeah, I mean....one attempt at downward facing dog and she’s either shot herself in the crotch or at minimum her gun is poking her in a sensitive area.

    1. You can’t do yoga in those pants unless you want to lose a body part in a painful, embarrassing manner.

    He’s such an innocent he doesn’t even know when he’s at a sex party, so I like him.

    My votes would be for Musk, Branson, Gates and Buffet. Zuckerburg is on the outside looking in, but probably not quite that far outside. His problem ostensibly seems to be naivete. The “don’t be evil” Google guys are in fact actually evil. And Bezos is going some good things, but will bankrupt a lot of families in the…

    He’s a venture capitalist and a bit of a strong persona but given how he’s probably the world leader for not killing the planet right now I say good for him.

    My wife has her old wedding pics. We go through them and laugh or admire how pretty she was as a bride. Even though that first marriage didn’t last, it doesn’t change the fact that her first wedding was obviously very special for her, as it should be, and it’s not a problem.
