There was a Twitch channel that featured AI Trump and Biden debating. They’ve changed it to Trump and Kamala now https://www.twitch.tv/trumporkamala2024 might be worth a watch for such content.

I remember there were some cases of pensions disappearing about 20 years ago so you’re not imagining it. I can’t find any stories on it but yeah there were people who went to retire their pensions were just gone.

I found this on investopia while I was looking:

“A number of situations could put your pension at risk, including underfunding, mismanagement, bankruptcy, and legal exemptions. Laws exist to protect you in such circumstances, but some laws provide better protection than others.”

So maybe they all sued the out of those companies and tapped into past insurance policies to get paid and that’s why it’s not really talked about.

Bottom line is that if someone else has your money, it’s in their control. If you have the money in your 401k, you can watch it and control it.

I remember working in fast food and almost nobody ever thought to clean the nozzles or clean out the ice bin.

There is probably a ton of mold inside where the ice is kept.

Myself and others in my family have owned Hyundai and Toyotas and they did well or seem to be doing well. I had a Hyundai Tiburon that yeah I had to do some repairs around 200k (I think I had to replace the alternator and something else) but last I heard it was still going strong. I did have essentially redo all of the suspension because the salt mix that was use locally slowly destroyed it.

Recently I’ve come to know some people who have Chevrolet SUVs from the 2010s and they seem to do alright at least to the 150k mark.

I would love to own another Hyundai myself.

If it makes you feel any better he’ll be the one that gets slapped with malpractice if he fucks up. He’s inherently accepting a certain amount of liability as a doctor.

The other thing that comes to mind is he is trained specifically in his field to diagnose and treat. As a nurse you are trained to do what you do best.

That doesn’t give him a right to be on his phone all the time and be a dipshit. Eventually, that will have consequences of some sort. Currently he’s receiving less respect and earning a shitty reputation. That might come to bite him in the ass some day. Him being lax may come out in his work and bite him in the ass too at some point.

But I understand your frustration. I’ve got shitty managers who don’t know their ass from a hole in the ground and I constantly question how they got and are keeping their jobs.

Idk if part of the unpleasantness is due to waking suddenly, but if it is consider different alarms like maybe music, an alarm that gradually gets louder, a quiet alarm, or a vibrating alarm. Some have also mentioned alarms with lights that gradually get brighter.

I grew up with one of those cheap ass, plug in, buzzing alarms with the little peg you push in on the back and I still jump and freak out when I hear that sound.

Agreeing with others. Enjoy being alone, enjoy having fun what you want to do, and masturbate. Life has a funny way of working out when you stop giving a fuck and focus on enjoying life.

Yeah I wouldn’t trust it, you can get USB hubs for fairly cheap. I just googled and saw one for 10$-12$ from Anker.

Agreed. We’re around, we just like to hide for good reason.

No joke, my mother used one when my dad was was away on work. I know because she forgot about it and my sister had the bright idea to go snooping around in her drawers one day.

I would hope that in our modern age with more access to privately get sex toys (thanks to the internet) that most people would not resort to using vegetables. However, is someone saw buying sex toys as somehow “wrong” then they might.

I think it depends on the industry and circle of friends you can find in that work place. Someone I know works in an oil chang place and they tell off color jokes and what not. I work in corporate and almost nobody does that. I also avoid creating that kind of relationship at work because I’ve been burned on drama from those types of connections. But I still manage to have a couple of people I trust and we’ll joke around and curse.

Check the serving size listed in Google against what’s on the label there.

That men should be able to fix things and be mechanically inclined.

Thank you, that was a wonderful write up

I have the same issue. For me it’s mainly some ip address in Russia but it bounces around. I’ve had the 2FA enabled on my account for at least a year now. I have a unique, random password for it. Recently (like a month or two ago) the 2FA app popped up with a message to click on the number to verify or deny. I knew it wasn’t me so I denied it.

I was worried someone had managed to guess my long ass password but I fiddled around with it and it’s possible to get that 2FA prompt when you are trying to do a password recovery. So I just let it ago and haven’t gotten any others since. I still feel like I should chang my email but based on what others are saying it doesn’t seem like it will make a difference.

I had a friend once who thought that doubling up on a condom meant double protection. That’s a huge no no.

King of the Hill and Destiny. Guardians stand on the moon with a cooler and just say “yep.”

Thank you! I’m terrible with word games and what not and I couldn’t figure it out.

As a kid we went camping near a reservoir and it rained real hard through a couple of nights. One of those nights there was some serious lightning. The loudest lightning crack I ever heard scared the shit out of me and woke everyone in the tent up, but we all stayed quiet. I was terrified. It had to of hit the ground relatively close. I thought it was going to hit again and get us. Thankfully it calmed down after that strike and sometime later I fell back to sleep.
