Yes. I do. I have performed manual labor and I’ve performed desk work in an office. The one where I could sit in a comfy chair with air conditioning and free access to a kitchen and reliably clean bathrooms was much better for me. Arguing that AI should be the decision maker positions and humans should continue to be manual labor is dumb. It’s not like factory workers are free lance woodworkers creating fulfilling art. They’re just selling their bodies to survive.
My thought as well. Humanizing yourself makes me think about the situation you’re in to be driving door dash and the situation I’m in to be ordering it. I ran into my diaper wipes deliverer yesterday and though should I tip? For delivery from a website, something i don’t tip for. But I made contact with the driver and I was grateful for their service in delivery. I think it’s human nature to be easier to tip light if you can forget a human person was involved
I know two people who had full term still born babies. They both absolutely refer to them as babies and as having given birth. I’m only 6 months pregnant and if I lost the pregnancy at this point I would say I lost my son. He’s very real and alive to me, he moves and touches me many times an hour, already keeps me up every night. He’s a real dude in there.
That said, I’ve had two miscarriages and consider those lost pregnancies, not lost children. I’ve seen people online say things like “mother of 4, 2 in heaven” though.
Having something die inside you can fuck you up forever.
My husband is blue collar. He goes where things need to be fixed. Sometimes his commute is 15 minutes, but it’s often 2 hours, when you factor in distance and traffic. A lot of blue collar deals with this, and yeah. We choose that shit over being homeless. His tech field laid him and everyone else off a few years ago.
Yeah, I love the clones, it’s like bonus levels
And I think also shared what food he had. Yeah, the kid was under prepared for sure, but apparently he had studied the food sources and terrain somewhat. He got unlucky. Not being prepared for unlucky is very very dumb. But most people I hear mad about this think he was zero prepared
Yeah, I read that hypothetically consuming the plant (which resembled a nontoxic look alike) could have made it so he was too weak to scavenge what he needed to survive. He could have survived otherwise. He was certainly gambling with his life being out there alone, but I read the claims of him being totally unprepared were exaggerated.
Once I did a single small inhale off a dab and missed all of friendsgiving sick in bed. Also once I took a hit off a friend’s vape and had to Uber home from the halloween party cause too high. Would much rather use an old joint where you kind of know where you are and can build more slowly
Yep! I’m both! My glass hutch in the kitchen is all clear and white glass and matching sets, daily use. My hoarders nest cabinet in the pantry holds cups from mystic pizza, the pirate restaurant, promotional yetis, my nostalgic Tupperware from college with no lid.
You said
Perfect argument that they are too immature to be on the road.
In response to a comment saying doors may not automatically close on self driving cars to protect children. It seems like you’re saying children are too immature to be on the road.
No one thinks children are incapable of closing doors, people think self closing doors may cut off children’s fingers.
I’m sorry, are you saying children are too immature to be passengers in cars?
The most I’ve had at once was 6, but that doesn’t really count because it was a short time that I took in a momma cat and her litter who were all adopted out two months later. I kept momma for about a year after before adopting her out. I’ve never had a cat its whole life. I have fostered a ton of kittens, and had cats for years, including cats that previously lived outdoors and then when I adopt, it’s usually been older cats who need extra care.
Yes, 15 would be quite a lot if you assume full lifespans of the cats!
Yeah, I’m wondering if too playful meant too attackey? Once we got a cat who had a “clean” history. He was so sweet and snuggly except he’d get in this zone where he would crash out and attack our legs and bite. We tried everything we could think of, my partner and I had had like 15 cats previously between us. No amount of play time, novelty in toys, attention, affection, space, whatever made him not attack our ankles and bite. I started feeling too anxious to walk across the house to the kitchen. With a sick pit in our stomachs we had to bring him back to the shelter. There we found out we had been lied to and he had lived as an outdoor cat for a while, and had been returned once before for biting. We had a 3 bedroom house and a screened in porch but it just wasn’t enough for him. We were also discouraged from reporting the biting as it would “make it harder to rehome him.”
I don’t know if I’ll have another animal in my house again. The biting and scratching was stressful and awful but having to return Beau was so difficult, and felt like such a failure. I can’t handle falling in love and then failing another animal.
You can’t judge someone for the third hand account. Maybe OP and her dad were a much better fit and the animal is different in their home.
There’s always money in the banana stand
Why doesn’t the customer just take the couple of minutes at the beginning of the month to dispense the blister packs into a daily pill box organizer?
Or just take a pair of scissors and round off the edges?
Just saying the problem is as easily or more easily solved by the customer as it is by the tech.
Certainly no medication should just be thrown out because the packaging is inconvenient. Making the techs take more time just means making the meds more expensive than they already are.
Obviously the real answer is to overhaul the whole system, but we live under an oligarchy here. Individual people have no power past barely the local level.
Damn thank you for sharing that. I can’t believe how little we all know about menopause considering almost half of humanity will eventually go through it!
Saying cis women can just stop their periods if they feel like it is a vast over simplification. Birth control fucks with your hormones often in very unpredictable ways. My friend had a light period for like 3 months straight due to her birth control and the doctors said that was fine and normal. In me, birth control triggered treatment resistant suicidal depression that I deal with to this day. In my sister, it gave wild mood swings and general emotional instability. My other sister was just plain allergic to it.
It’s dangerous for women to go on hormonal birth control even though it’s so common and normalized. Women’s Healthcare in the USA is so hit or miss, and doctors are often uninformed or dismissive. Maybe you live elsewhere where it’s better?
Please understand that periods are absolutely not optional. Even a complete hysterectomy (not that many of us could be granted one anyway) would trigger early menopause which is its own host of issues.
I mean yeah, when I’m most depressed I practically live on fruit and veggies. Cheap at the produce stand and takes no effort to prepare, easy calories. You have to cook meat, but not watermelon. Sprinkle some parmesan on canned green beans and boom, that’s dinner. You can leave apples in your room and then you don’t even need to get out of bed to eat! Also bags of chips. Hey, even that’s potatoes though!
But seriously, if a diet “cured depression” it wouldn’t be because it’s full of fruit and veg, it’d be because it’s dynamic and well rounded.
My science teacher in high school told me all the kinds can fly, it’s just a matter of age. So maybe that’s why it’s only the big ones? Idk i don’t see the little ones flying either but apparently the little ones are the absolute worst to have around
Literally no thoughtful or reasonable sexual partner is going to say they prefer the type of penis it’s impossible for you to have, so that data is wildly biased.
I’m a woman and I’ve been with both. I don’t really care either way (and I feel confident most women who have actually been with both don’t really care) but my best lasting lover by far was uncut. I will not circumcise any sons I have.
