Oh ok so your statement isn’t a conspiracy theory but Paul pelosi attacker filling his blogs with right wing propaganda two weeks before the attack, that’s a conspiracy theory? Got it. Another example of how the left refuses to accept that they too have mentally unstable extremist on their side.

There are good reasons and some not so good ones. Depending on which side of the fence you fall on, you’ll use those talking points while willfully ignoring/misinterpreting the other sides point to claim the moral high ground.

I’m on day 2 of a new remote job… I can’t tell how I feel about it. I THINK it’s a good fit but I’m feeling overwhelmed by it at the moment and that’s causing second thoughts. Everyone that I’ve zoomed with has been super nice and helpful so far though! We’ll see how it goes! My brain is definitely fried though but I still have about 2 hours left today.

Thanks! I'm nervous to say I think it went well but I think it went well! It took maybe five hours total and our yard looks like it was dug up but nothing unexpected or too disastrous there. I was worried about a dogwood tree in the yard, but it came out unharmed. They charged an extra $500 from the original quote because they had to hand tunnel under our front porch. I honestly don't care because our first quote was so much more expensive.

After they left, I did discover a pipe was leaking in the basement. Turns out that shutting the water line on and off had caused an old galvanized rotting pipe to finally go. I called them fairly frantic and they were here within 10 minutes and replaced a pipe for us which was an extra $750. Again, in the scheme of things, I wasn't upset. The pipe needed to be replaced anyway.

So far, I would choose them again.

The entire history of organized Christianity has been using excerpts from the bible to justify a given behavior, from colonization and the displacement of natives, to wars, to slavery. Millions of people at the time found a way to justify their behavior by pointing to their holy books and claiming a divine mandate. This kind of mental gymnastic is nothing new

It was about 20-25 years ago. I used to live in Stratford Hills off Longview. The Dunkin Donuts used to be a tiny McDonald's, and the current McDonald's used to be a Hardee's.

Thank you. I’m quitting work early today because sigh one jackass customer was inconsiderate and that inconsideration caused downstream problems for another customer that I am now being blamed for. I am so mad, too mad to even vocally react.

To anyone else reading: for the love of god, don’t get into taxis or rideshare smelling like weed. I drive for a living, it’s my only income, and now I have to defend myself for something I didn’t do.

I smoke weed and love it too, but NEVER anywhere near a taxi/rideshare. It’s so fucking rude and livelihoods are at risk.
