Thanks. I live in NC where racism determines the districts, not the census (kidding not kidding).

What happens if you lie on the census? Or don’t fill it out at all? Asking for a friend...

You’re not the asshole. They are. I call them out. Usually I say”Wow, that must have been a great workout! It made you forget to wipe down the machine! Good for you!” And smile. Level of sarcasm usually starts very low so I have plenty of room to escalate as needed. (I like being flexible.)

Thanks, Beth! Great article and resources that I’ll be sharing at work ;)

I agree with the other comments that you need a backup (because signal & battery).

I hate the new design.

Exactly! I’ve always thought that. Thanks for the link!

Yay! The North Carolina Zoo is accredited :) https://www.nczoo.org/

That aquarium is awesome! I’ve not been able to find another that comes close to it.

I love Cornell’s bird website, too! So much good info about everything birds :)

Yes! I love her Game of Jones videos - Pure Gold!

I like the map idea, too! Thanks! :)

This and picking someone who will actually call 911 when you are overdue. A lot of people don’t want to bother anyone and will wait longer than they should to call for help.

I’ve had my Longaberger laundry baskets for over 20 years now. Damn I’m old...

Good point! My new list includes: Take a nap, fall asleep in the recliner while watching tv, and fall asleep in recliner or bed while listening to guided meditation. :)

This. I use YouTube videos to listen to focus or concentration music (no lyrics, just music), and the occasional binaural beats... 

Yup. Nobody at the gym cares about this middle aged overweight woman on the elliptical. And if they do, I don’t care about them. At least I’m at the gym exercising. (((hugs self)))

Thanks for this! I’m off down a ‘bee home’ rabbit hole (which Mr Safety will appreciate since he’s tired of hearing about how intelligent corvids are lol).

I’ll have to try this! I grow cat grass and pick a few fresh blades from the yard every day to reduce the barfing from my furball :)
