This is something I kept pointing out to management at my last company, but they were always so hellbent on putting everything in the cloud. Then construction across the street cut some fiber or something going to our building. When I told management that we had no Internet and I was sending everyone home, they lost their shit. I mollified them a bit by pointing out that at least some people would be able to work from home. I then waited until the meeting the next morning to point out that only 1 QA/support person and 1 dev had laptops (because of course management didn’t see any reason to spend the extra money for laptops over desktops). It was also nice to be able to make the CEO and VP to drive all the way home and back to get their wireless data pucks they used as their personal Internet connections.
My overwhelming joy at all the petty little ways I was able to rub their bad decisions in their faces was a big part of what made me actually start hunting for a new job rather than just thinking about it.

That feeling when you realize that you have reached that age where your first thought on hearing new slang is that it’s an ailment:

Bricked up = constipated

Rizz = that burning sensation that makes you feel like you have to pee, but hurts when you try because you have a urinary infection.

On fleek = explosive diarrhea that is so bad that you don’t leave the bathroom between bouts. In fact, at some point you don’t even bother to pull up your underpants anymore. You just pace back and forth in the restroom with your underpants dragging around 1 ankle.

Old. But I have been on BP meds since my late 30s.

I know that you meant this as a joke, but this is literally how online communities are built. One really dedicated nutter just keeps posting OC whether anyone else wants it or not, and slowly other people start adding stuff because it’s an active place.

So, you go right ahead and you do you.

Lisinopril and clonidine work differently. It would be like saying alcohol and fentanyl both make you drowsy.

Clonidine is also short lived and only works for about 12hrs (coincidentally just like your Vyvanse). Additionally, clonidine can calm your nerves and help with ADHD.

I actually take 3 different BP meds. None of them, even at their highest dose, will lower both the top and lower BP number. And I have weird side effects with any of them at anything higher than the minimum dose. Luckily, all 3 at the lowest dose for each does the job perfectly.

Start checking your blood pressure. Vyvanse is a stimulant and will raise your bp. If you are already borderline high on bp, it could be pushing you into bp headache territory.

He didn’t have enough money to acquire twitter. Instead he got loans from the worst people in the world to buy twitter.

Ya, I never expected him to be pro-government, but really never expected him to be antivax and pro convoy. I wasn’t really interested when he got his CNC so I put him on the back burner, only come back again right in the middle of his batshit insanity.
I used to rarely subscribe to anyone, so he was the very first unsub for me.

Sounds like me. Get checked for sleep apnea and/or blood sugar problems.

It also can’t connect to Google home without being unlocked nor set your navigation to an address in your contacts, or as far as I can tell do anything useful at all.

Oh and I almost forgot it will also fucking block other apps from doing shit that they used to be able to do because it decided that something in your phrase is a key word.

So Detroit?

At first I saw that among his fleet of 6 ships, that he has a research vessel and a hospital vessel. I thought, “Ok, funding research and a fucking full on floating hospital that he can send to disasters and places in need. That would actually be pretty fucking cool.”

But, then I kept reading “a full-fledged hospital, serving as a safeguard for the cruising billionaire during the COVID-19 pandemic”. 🤦

It’s a “support” vessel that follows his main yacht around in case he needs medical care.

Sure it sounds bad when you point out that it happens almost every day. But, that is just an average over the span of a year.

When you really look at it and realize that most schools in the US are closed for at least a month’s worth of holidays, 3 months for summer vacation, and of course 2 days out of every week. Well, then you will see that it’s really much much worse than you originally thought.

I go with “Ya, 42 right? I love Hitchhiker’s guide. You are never going to go wrong with a guy Hitchhikers reference with me.”. And then I go for a high-five that never gets returned. This shuts the entire thing down in such an amusing way.

Most of them do, you just have to hit on girls outside of the hospital rehab, or at least stop targeting the ones in wheelchairs.

“Death” in mandarin is “Si”. “4” is also “si”, so it is considered a very unlucky number and nobody wants it in their phone number and other stuff.
“10” is “shi” which is close enough to “Si” that many people don’t like it and will avoid it.

I can totally agree with that and I think your destination is absolutely the right place. I think you just chose the wrong way to get there.

I don’t want to come off as agreeing with the other poster, but this argument is so awful that I can’t just ignore it.
What if the assaulter was tall? Am I supposed to slouch all day everyday? Am I literally not allowed to exist because there are horrible people in the world of varying height?

Exactly! Thats is a perfect comparison. Even water can kill when unrestrained and unregulated.

Since they ban by ip address, that is pretty fucked up
