I’ve got a pretty sweet gig, all of us do at this company, and I think “rocking the boat” could only make my situation worse. We are only like a dozen people and there’s only one person in each “department”. We aren’t being mistreated and we are privileged enough to be able to leave if we were.

That’s pretty good!

As a schlub with chronic back problems, I recommend actually doing your physical therapy regularly! It only helps if you do it.

I work in a very small company in an IT type of field. I fully support unionization in general, but I don’t think it’s relevant to me at the moment. Do you disagree?

I love your privacy/security summary. Thank you for your honesty!

This looks like a handy tool.

Right, there are people and lawfirms that make all their money going around measuring doorway widths and bathroom counter heights and stuff, because the person who raises the complaint gets a reward… Sort of like bounty hunters?

The article says it is a watermelon shaped like israel. I don’t know why is (or is percieved to be) a pro-palestinian message, and I don’t care enough about a t-shirt to look it up, but the show producers at least thought it was a political statement. I wonder if a shirt with simply a triangular slice of watermelon would be banned.

As far as I can tell “skibidi” has no actual meaning, it’s just a word that proves you’re part of the in-group.

I’ve heard that “YEET!” is for power, but “KOBE!” is for accuracy.

I’ve got a toe shaped like an alien. Maybe that’s worth something!

There must be a huge variety of Indian accents given the large geographical area and bonkers number of people, but we (in America at least) only think of one stereotypical accent. I presume it annoys people to be lumped in with whichever group actually has that accent! Like Austrians probably don’t love that the only Austrian voice anybody knows is Arnold Schwarzenegger, who comes from a very rural area and has that accent, apparently.

That’s too simplistic. The two parties will either make it worse or not make it better. Not voting (assuming you are in a state without winner-takes-all or are in a swing/purple state) is letting other people decide for you. Walking away from the trolley problem doesn’t untie people from the tracks.

I’ll take 'em if I can choose where they grow! Lol

Fun video from Mark Rober about the topic. How to measure how much pee is in your pool

In imperial, it’s in one-inch increments, which is typical. Must have been written in inches and translated for the rest of the world.

Partial inches are only used by people insecure about their height. “I’m 5’7.25” “, naw bud, you’re 5’7”.

Negative, I am a meat Popsicle.

I agree with everything you wrote. Many countries have election holidays plus mandatory voting. That seems to work reasonably well, though you’d need to allow for people who can’t get off of work that day.

Yeah, it’s a thorny issue.

I’m always astonished when I see people add lighting to a figure/scene by piling on lighter and lighter colors. It’s mind-blowing to me how artists can figure out how to fake light with colors!
