I loved that she narrated the audio book, her accent is fantastic! I enjoyed her memoir. I don't really remember how it ended, so maybe that part could have been tightened up. I mean, she is still so young, I wouldn't expect her to have worked out a big overarching moral for her story yet. I hope she writes another as her career progresses.
This sounds like the schools don't handle the payments for lunches. A third party does and as an electronic payment processor, they probably don't provide a physical address where a check can be received.
Not sure if it's really an accomplishment but I got out of a burnout that started in January. I've been in and out of burnout before but this time I set some personal boundaries and requested and received some accommodations from work. Now I feel better set up to maintain work-life balance.
That was just the loss for one weekend, they've likely lost more since this started months ago.
Fair enough but if you have the means, NFCU has almost no cost. I get something small but like .4% interest on my checking account. Their credit card has no annual fee and I average $800 a year in cash back benefits from it. Other than buying paper checks, I've not paid them one penny for any services, a way better deal than I was getting at BofA.
I'm pretty adverse to fermented, pickled or spicy. Anything in the kimchi universe, big no thanks.
I think Minoxidil is the only thing proven to work. You can take it orally or apply it to the scalp via a serum or shampoo.
Because this is a forum where people share perspectives. If you don't want to hear them then don't read the comments.
I found this. Seems like idiosyncrasy applies to human behaviors while anomaly indicates an unexpected variance in a system.
That's very noble of you, but in our capitalist systems, those who provide the most needed and valuable services are often paid the least. You may feel that telling someone to get better educated and moving somewhere cheaper will solve their problem, but then someone else will fill their past role. Our most expensive cities will always need janitors, line cooks, laborers, shelf stockers and many other roles that will never pay much. We can't all be coders making 6 figures working remotely from bumbfuck nowhere. This doesn't even take into account disabled people who can't provide much or any value in the eyes of our system. You basically want to tell people to bootstrap, just in a gentler way.
No one makes that much money through work, it is through investments. Remove social security tax limits and beef up our nationalized retirement systems then tax investments to death. I don't care if people are disincentivised from investing in businesses that don't make any money. I know I'll ruffle some feathers with this but I truly believe all space travel investments should be redirected to something that can make an immediate difference for those already on the planet, like healthcare or services for those effected by climate change.
My nail art is all gel. It doesn't chip and does "dry" until I'm ready, which let's you do really cool stuff like this 3D pizza nail I did.
I'm into nail art, Seinfeld and watching my cats destroy my house... and I usually enjoy them all at once.
Awesome, thanks for sharing!
That sounds absolutely adorable!
I got the litter robot. I've had it 9 months. I have a cat that loves to dig and the rubber liner doesn't look like it's going to hold up for more than 2 years because she scratches the same spot relentlessly, but I still love it. I'd buy a new one every other year if I needed to.
Interesting! I actually did a psychological assessment recently (naively thinking that autism would be included), so I completed the intelligence testing too. I think it was the WAIS2. I didn't realize it would be included and I was in an extreme state of burnout but I still got a result of "superior" processing speed. It's one metric that sometimes makes me question whether I could be autistic because so often the narrative is that autistics are slow processors, but your perspective and result indicates that I shouldn't allow that to cloud my judgment.
Thanks for sharing that resource. I've gotten some validation from neurodivergent therapists and am okay with my self diagnosis for now.
