  • Yoga with slow, gentle poses may help you wind down in the evening if that's not something you've considered.

  • Again, why do you believe you get to narrow the scope of what news is to everyone else? You are welcome to create your own magazines that talk about exactly what you want and block the ones that aren't what you want to engage with.

  • My husband and I love Sonic when we go to the US. We will drive a reasonable distance out of our way to get it and we never regret it.

    And I just saw the closest is just under 7 hours from us and 30 minutes from a family friend. We may or may not be half-jokingly planning a road trip for Sonic after 5.5 years since our last taste. Please accept all the credit!

  • Between my teens and early 20s, I worked there 3 times. I left on good terms to focus on other areas of life and they were always happy to have me back. I still love McDonalds as a treat! My go-to's are cheeseburgers or Big Mac's.

  • I'm thinking you should probably stop speaking on behalf of everyone. I am not American but I do care that millions of Americans are losing their rights. I care that US businesses got over a trillion in PPP loan forgiveness but that the same can't be extended to 40 million individuals and their student loans for education they are almost forced to have if they want a shot at making more than minimum wage and even then, it's not a guarantee.

    I'm not a refugee but I care that the Greek government effectively let hundreds die rather than assist them.

    I'm not French but I am interested in the riots happening there.

    I'm not Russian, Ukrainian, or even European but I want to know what is happening with the occupation of Ukraine, the coup attempt, and what other countries are doing to ensure the Russia doesn't violate NATO and the repercussions if they do.

    Why do you believe you get to narrow the scope of what is news on behalf of everyone else?

  • I don't think they're being ridiculous to say that US politics has an impact outside of the US. To quote a former Canadian Prime Minister:

    "Living next to you is in some ways like sleeping with an elephant. No matter how friendly and even-tempered is the beast, if I can call it that, one is affected by every twitch and grunt."

  • I've been remote since 2016. It was unofficial until 2019 when they closed a number of offices globally, including my home office, and moved those they were keeping to official remote designation. They've not asked those remote workers back but anyone that was in-office prior to COVID-19 does have to go in at least 3 days a week.

  • Looks like it's been removed. I'm seeing a total of 7 posts since 2 weeks ago when sorting by new.

  • I've been pleased with The Verge's ongoing coverage of this and really respect them calling out this poor behaviour.

  • We had an incredible ravine that got destroyed for a highway that I've driven many times as an adult. It's a rare trip that I don't think back to the beautiful place where I spent countless hours of summer breaks being wild and free.

  • Why are you posting about the Titan sub in a thread about a Reddit community of transcribers that will be closing?

  • My husband and I had a similar idea but for ourselves and friends versus your purpose-built need. With a billion dollars we can do both and then some so I'll build my commune and pay for yours to exist in multiple areas globally.

  • You'd think if it was important to them they might try to teach their kids themselves. Or have we defaulted to we can only learn things in school already?

  • also loopy signatures that have 1 big letter with a scribble behind it

    Why you gotta call me out like that? Haha. But seriously, I had a proper signature until I got a part time office job at 17 that required me to sign a lot of things (for packages, receipts, witness acknowledgement, etc) every day - that's on top of initialing things. I worked there 5-6 days a week before doing that same job full time for a few years and
    eventually continued part-time for a few more years when I was in another career. Anyway, the point was that it was a fairly busy job and the extra few seconds my full, proper signature I had developed wasn't an option and I slowly morphed my signature into a bastard hybrid between initials and signature that has remained some 20 years later. Also, I ditched the loopy first letter.

  • Seems like an appropriate time to remind people we can buy Ernest coffee for all his hard work to give us kbin!

  • I was expecting a "shut up, bird" or two in the Reddit comments but baby dick is a classic. Thanks for linking it!

  • I mean, those IASIP responses are pretty on brand but thanks for letting me know the community exists!

  • I have it off by default and turn it on when I want some other content.
