rock and stone!

if the third floor is extra small or something, maybe getting really yoked makes it difficult to pass through?

like "you’re gonna be so buff that you’ll be unable to squeeze through a narrow corridor! "

that’s exactly why I always try to tip with cash. when I pay in cash for food, I have no issue if the business wants to pocket it and keep a little extra something for themselves that uncle sam can’t touch. taxes are important, but workers can have a little personal gain, as a treat. plus, credit companies don’t need to get their beaks wet everytime I buy something.

But one of the things I learned about doing business is always make it easy for people to pay.

the weirdest thing I see regularly is “no cash” signs for vendors. I understand some places don’t want to deal with giving change, or holding large amounts of cash at outdoor events, or making lines go quicker, etc. it’s just strange that the most concrete form of regulated currency we have is turned down so often now.

the weenus is a dance

as a mechanic working in a hodgepodge US/EU factory line, I have to suffer through always carrying double the tools to service metric and SAE machines. and after so many years in the industry, I still slip up and say 3/16 when I mean 3/8 sometimes, because fractions are a shit system for wrenches.

oh, and some of our linear encoders readout decimal-feet, because fuck it, why not?

it’s funny, comical, and humorous!

you fans sure are a contentious bunch

we have always been at war with Eurasia!

lousy smarch weather

sure, I’ve played Dark Souls. never dug too much into the lore, though…

instead of plugging that mental image into existence, you should not

I’m trying to take a more active roll in training new machines operators at my job, and it’s only because the current training manager actively does the opposite of 90% of the stuff on this list. I’m getting tired of being called in to “fix” stuff that’s just an error of bad training.

think of the poor, hungry leopards!

it leads down a pretty dark rabbit whole of general Federalist Society plans for an overtly conservative autocratic regime, and it’s terrifyingly plausible if they consolidate enough power and funding. and that’s all pretty easy with the support of foreign oligarchs that need the US to be fully involved in its own libertarian implosion, so it can turn a blind eye to international war crimes.

i long for the times when conspiracy theories used to be fun spooky stories about cryptids wandering the wilds, and aliens doing creepy stuff in cornfields to mess with farmers

and then when it gets too hot down there, all of the snowbirds migrate out and start an insane summer spread for the rest of the continent

MSUD affects 1 in 4 adult Canadians

pretty sure the spam calls and emails to the poor saps only talk about “saving america”

then they’re free to make up whatever it is they think that means

liking lemmy a lot, but I do miss those HQG

go for a pump, and stay for the dump!

Kate Beckinsale agreed to star in the film for scale if she would be allowed to wear her “lucky hat” during filming, and Bright agreed.[1] On her first day of filming, the producers demanded that Bright tell her to remove the hat, and Bright refused, as this was the only reason she was in the film for a low salary. Arguments between Bright and producers persisted during filming.[1]

but more importantly:

Matthew Bright conceived the film when he was 18, as “a raucous comedy about little people fucking each other”.[1]
