The Big Jesus posted:Haven’t been drunk in months. Kids will do that to ya I guess. I don’t miss it nearly as much as I thought I would and the slight weight loss (it was mostly offset by holiday food) has been nice. i get drunk like, once a year. i have a drink at home maybe twice a month, if that? will have a few beers socially but generally just don't drink all that much. idk, i much prefer smoking some weed to wind down in the evenings. i had a year or two span a decade ago where i'd have like, a beer and instantly feel splitting head hungover. so i think never knowing if that will happen really kicked off not drinking much. thankfully doesn't really happen anymore so I can enjoy a few social drinks.

I don’t know what flipped that keeps her from sleeping through the night but my god it needs to flip back. sleep regressions are a bitch. it's even harder than when the kiddo is figuring out sleeping through the night for the first time because you know they can do it but they've suddenly lost that skill. hang in there, it will pass.

Ok, I signed up for Indeed, I'll just use that one, but a cover letter for trucking? What the gently caress would that be? likely some purchased solution that either wasn't configured or isn't configurable to remove that since it's not relevant.

Bird in a Blender posted:I finally found the Kids section on Netflix and holy poo poo there are a million transformer, Lego, and power ranger shows now. Power rangers got weird for some of the series. They are like, magic ranger fighting inter dimensional evil and the base is with a fairy lady in a tree. They are also magicians in their non power Ranger lives. There was a movie where the beat the bad guy by bringing back every power Ranger ever to fight. It’s a really weird show universe. My son went through a power ranger phase where we watched the show a lot.

Leperflesh posted:Sorry about being laid off, Joey. A lot of big tech seems to be making cuts "in anticipation of" an economic downturn rather than due to actual bad earnings, and I sorta suspect that whatever recession we have, if it happens at all, isn't going to actually hit tech company profits much (aside from lol twitter and maybe facebook and google) and these companies will find themselves in a bad position in a year or two because they've slashed product development. yep. at this point all the FAANG and other large layoffs are just because they plan and not actually right-sizing costs.

Bird in a Blender posted:Mexican, seafood, pizza, or general American I guess. I’m not a meat eater (just seafood), so I don’t need to know which BBQ spot to go to. I’d say anything mid-range? Nothing so fancy it’s going to take 2+ hours to eat. I don’t mind cheap and easy places either. I remember a chili place right near the hotel that I loved, and I’ll probably eat there at least once. Oh nice! Texas Chili Parlor is where you’re thinking of. Here’s a quick list. I’m sure I’ll think of more. Pizza: VIA 313 is in north canvas and is v good Detroit style - there’s a few around town so whichever is convenient Home slice is New York style and has a location in Hyde park (north of campus) or on south congress Seafood: Mongers on Guadalupe north of campus Shoal Creek Saloon has p good Cajun food Mexican/Tex mex : Matt’s el rancho on s. Lamar borego de oro on s. Congress Veracruz all natural for the chilaquiles tacos Cisco’s has really good migas Este for bougie Mexican seafood There’s a taqueria in the dobie food court - great tortas Comedor has fantastic high end Mexican Brunch/ bakery: Sour duck market Neil Armbong fucked around with this message at 13:09 on Jan 27, 2023 |

Bird in a Blender posted:The fact that so many people are warning about how terrible it is, but also that everyone was told yesterday what time this was getting released makes me really curious what will actually happen today. Are protests already in the works before the video comes out? Are we going to see "spontaneous" protests tonight? Just feels so different than before because Floyd came out of nowhere. This has been talked about for weeks already. I can't tell if it's *that* much worse than the killings we've seen so far or if this is posturing to pre-emptively paint protestors in a worse light or pre-justify state violence against any protestors. edit: quote:Chief Cerelyn Davis said the footage shows a "disregard of basic human rights." I feel like this is a p apt description for all the videos we've seen already. i don't like watching people die so idk that i'll watch this one.

The state DPHs we work with are now having to work to find budget to fund v popular and impactful programs. poo poo was so bad in December for some states with flu, rsv and COVID spiking we had to take over triaging patients to direct them the appropriate care since emergency services were overwhelmed and couldn't sufficiently deal with the volumes.

swickles posted:Should I move to Alaska? My wife got offered a job there that pays a ton and has a huge relocation and sign on bonus. I don't know what I would do there though, its on an island that has a clinic, but no need for an anesthesiologist as anything needing that goes to Juneau. Its pretty far south, so the weather isn't that bad (25/38F are low/high average temps in January). I think it might be fun to do for a few years, but we would be really isolated from any family and friends, town is only 8k people, and on an island. While it seems like a cool adventure and could be fun, the uncertainty of me finding a job (unless I could do research remotely) makes it tough, plus I am not sure if it would get old fast being that small. a whole lot of drinking is what you'll do.
