It’s been raining more than average here… So yeah. Same difference?

If you have the intelligence to realize you’re wrong and the strength to admit it, then you are better than most people.

Because this asshat isn’t a journalist. He makes shit up and spins it how he’s paid to. He has zero morals, zero integrity, and is less reputable than the boy who cried wolf.

There’s been plenty of leaks of him flat out lying on Fox. Combine that with Putin also being a lying psycho, and there’s really no good or truth that can come from this interview. Only propaganda and misinformation.

I believe it goes back to world war 2. The country froze wages for economic stabilization. Some employers started throwing in health care as an incentive during a labor shortage. We are now stuck with this poisonous system.

And then the cycle repeats

I often wonder how much money Northern states would save on roads if it weren’t for the extreme temperature swings.

Regularly hit highs over 100 in the summer, lows below -30 in the winter. That’s an awful lot of compression and expansion. Not to mention the abuse of heavy plows and their blades catching upheaved concrete.

I love it

Doesn’t hurt to check out your options. And almost any job will welcome you back (usually at your new pay rate) if you change your mind down the road.

Over my career, lateral moves have netted me +80%, +30%, and 20%. Not to mention quality of work/life improvements.

Most companies basically offer a < 5% raise every year, which is just around inflation. Maybe a 10% bump if you get promoted. The wider world values your skills much more.

I’m not a huge football/soccer fan, but I love the concept of promotion/relegation. Around here if you have a losing team you get rewarded with a high draft pick. It’s a strategy to be terrible.

I also would love having lower level teams to watch, but that’s pretty rare. If you have a pro team in your city, you probably don’t have a semi pro team with the exception of baseball.

Maybe that’s why so many people enjoy watching college sports. Although I have my own issues with that scene, because of course I do.

Seems crazy. I think professional sports would be so much cooler if the community had stake in the team and got something out of winning/profits.

It’s just so weird to attach your identity to a team that you are in no way a part of, other than the location.

Team owners: “We’re just humble billionaires and we care so much about your state. The team is part of the community… Now subsidize our massively profitable business or we’ll move the team.”

I’ll never understand why fans are die hard loyal to franchises that screw them at every possible opportunity. Insane ticket prices, seat license fees (which are somehow different than tickets?), insane concession prices, ads on everything- it hurts my brain.

I feel this in my soul.

Still better than the open office concept though. It’s like it was designed to be cruel and stupid.

Is there a website? I’m just finding Instagram and I pretty much hate that.

That makes more sense.

I know the real idea behind it. I just never liked it being summarized as defund. It’s more like restructure. Personally, I would be much more aggressive with an overall. It’s rotten top to bottom.

Ugh, “defund the police” is a terrible phrase if you actually want the movement to succeed. I wish they would have gone with something along the lines of “police reform”. Immediately every conservative glommed onto “now they want to abolish all police!”

We do need a massive overhaul to police. Unfortunately that means better marketing of the idea of it’s going to happen.

But how would they sell more smoke detectors that way?

Eesh. That video is damning. I don’t even watch soccer/futbol and that’s pretty egregious in the replay. She pushed off her back, then stepped on it… Not an accident

Well that’s depressing

Wait, what?
