I'm an rear end in a top hat who moved from a Seattle suburb to a mountain in eastern Washington because my job was remote anyway and COL is cheaper.

Met a neighbor today that lives down the road and lives on social security. He has a huge pack of dogs and said that "people up here you either want to hug em or shoot em." His deceased MIL's cabin is for rent for $600/mo if you're interested in also living on a mountain.

One cool thing about rural life is I saw deer, mountain goats, and wild turkeys on the way into town today.

I would have never been able to afford owning anything in like a 3 hour range around Seattle. I bought 8 acres of forested land and a single wide trailer with fiber internet and a well already on the property, and support my spouse and myself on one wfh salary. Was a no brainier for my situation.

Yeah, local paper just ran a story because some SF tech worker moved to the area. New people is a big deal in towns of like a thousand people or less.

I was slightly upset as a kid that my parents said no to Disneyland but after growing up I get it. As a parent I think you can make the decision that going to a national park or something is better for your kid then an overpriced mall with rides

fknlo posted:from way back, but my TikTok is only marginally like this. things I physically hit the like button on may or may not make it into limited rotation for a short time. that random video clip from saving private Ryan I watched 8 seconds of? that’s now 70% of the videos I’ll see for the rest of the day. then it’s a rotation of golf, Tesla, crypto, gym, truckerlife, etc… and you can only block a certain number of hashtags and it just seems to disregard that anyway. then the rest of it is onlyfans ads because I’m apparently incapable of not looking at a nipple and there goes the feed again even though I’ve never hit the like button on any of those. Do you hold and select the "I really don't like this" option to poo poo you don't want on your feed? My tik tok feed is like 99% a combination of cute animal videos, nature stuff, leftie politics, and gay poo poo. If you dislike the sponsored ad stuff you'll also start getting really weird promoted stuff

Consolidated Ed posted:hey when is your employer gonna start paying ca property taxes? im concerned that all of their social justice initiatives are just windowdressing bullshit, i know that seems unlikely because standford is prestige but sometimes rich people are dishonest. if you guys are so worried about diversity and inclusino, why arent you paying your fair share? just asking questions of my rich betters They put land acknowledgements in before their statements, what more could you want???

One of my old in office teams bought some cheap cat ears, and if someone put them on it meant they were in a bad mood and didn't want to be bothered

spiritual bypass posted:that's really interesting, what's your job title and employer Regulatory specialist at a prestigious university. My career trajectory basically went retail jobs after graduating during the recession, got an office job writing and reviewing air emissions regulatory reports, IRB work, clinical trial administration. There's a variation in pay with my job title depending on where you are and how the study funding is, but the path into irb administration is pretty easy at least Schmeichy has issued a correction as of 17:33 on Nov 4, 2023 |

FlapYoJacks posted:congratulations on the enormous bus factor, lovely work environment, and no raises/promotions (this doesn’t happen anyways)! I got a (small tbf) promotion this year and am training someone on the process now. The reduction in job security will be worth the ability to get hit by a bus (or disappear into the woods which is more likely)

Why couldn't the expression that happened in your parents get carried down to you? You'd be exposed to that makeup in the womb at the very least

I moved to a rural area and have the best relationship I've ever had with a neighbor. We make each other food and share plants and watch each other's pets. As another neighbor said, "people up here, you either want to hug em or shoot em"
