  • *sneezes* ugh, my sun allergies

  • They're at in impasse. He's an immigrant, but he's also rich. They're drawing the line at rich AND donates to Democrats. Then he's out.

  • Mop/broom + kitchen knife + duck tape = spear

  • Divide and conquer

  • What's a good medium to back up to, assuming I don't want to pay for a RAID setup?

  • When masks were mandatory, I couldn't do this and tried for over a minute to open the damn bag.

    I found that if I start with the cold vegetable, I could use their moisture to wet my fingers.

  • My brain is either at 100% or 0%.If I'm doing something monotonous, I need something to keep me stimulated, like listening to an audiobook, podcast, YouTube video, or music I can sing to.

    If I'm doing something taxing, I need some background dopamine to stay focused or I'll get bored, tired, or unmotivated. I could be tapping, fidgetting, rocking, or listening to music I can move to (but not sing to).

    Apparently, your body is supposed to have some base level of dopamine, but some people's base level is too low. There are links to this and ADHD.

Managers have gotten in trouble for asking someone to work during lunch. Pay is competitive for the area. I could be making more at a large company, but I like not being stressed and my finances aren't stressing me at this job.

  • If you hear a swarm of bees, you're already dead.

  • Productivity peeks between 10 PM and 4 AM... Or a few hours before a deadline.

  • My reaction to most kids' yes/no questions."Do you want to play?""No""Do you have games on your phone?""No""Can I touch your face?""No"

  • The saying I heard was "Don't argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience."

  • Playing Helldivers 2 is a good reminder about how squishy and delicate humans are compared to any modern weapon, regardless of who is controlling it.

  • Yep
