If you are in the path of totality, go find a spot early on and just kind of hang out - bring snacks and water and a book. If you aren't familiar with the area, download a map on your phone because the cell network might be slammed with people. Don't look at the sun without solar glasses until totality. The moon takes a while to move in front of the sun and the light level gradually drops, but you won't notice it until probably 90% of the sun is covered. Once totality occurs, you can look at the eclipse with the naked eye.

It is beautiful and indescribable and I was profoundly moved when I watched the 2017 eclipse. I will watch the upcoming one, provided the clouds don't cover it.

Once the eclipse is over, prepare to wait for traffic. It might be a while to get out because so many people go to such a small area.

If you go north/west, the eclipse will take place a bit higher over the horizon. If you go to the eastern part/coast of Spain, it will be very low to the horizon, which would maybe suck inland but might be cool over the ocean.

Aaaand this is why my milk costs $10/gallon. Animals need to be treated well.

Important question: are you bleeding from the gums when you floss?

Healthy gums can handle normal flossing without bleeding. I floss once a day, before bed. Normal flossing does not involve super hard scrubbing, just enough force to scrape off stuff stuck between the teeth and dislodge stuck particles. You might also want to add some antiseptic mouthwash to your routine after flossing until your gums stop bleeding.

I fucking hate Aptos. It makes my work emails (Outlook) look "quirky" and that is NOT what is needed.

Is it actually too many clothes, is it that you are judging them (given your note about your own wardrobe at the bottom), or a mix of both?

You need to avoid moral judgement. Focus on practicalities - is your partner meeting shared living expenses targets, are they meeting their savings goals; and how the clothes are or are not overrunning the space, resulting in obvious opportunity costs for you or the both of you.

It's a very special anniversary for me: I haven't had solid food in my stomach for six months as of 9:30 this morning. [This is a very long rant, please no medical advice.]

Before I begin- Again, please no medical advice or suggestions. I am going to the Mayo Clinic in March and I will get their advice and I am just going to ignore any medical advice posted, sorry. Please no pity party either, I'm just angry and need a a place to rant and vent, that's it. Feel free to ignore this post and move on....

You could thin it out with water too. Soylent comes as a premixed beverage or as a powder if you want it cheaper.

I have ended up in a "view all and block" mode rather than a "subscribe to a curated list" mode because of the smaller community. That means I need to block a lot more communities I am not interested in and users that are just... Outside my window of civility or politics that I can handle. Raging tankies, for example.

Thank you for repeating it. It is important to indicate when engineering break even occurs. Before that... Neat, but still a long way to go.

Out of curiosity, can you specify the topics or give specific examples of this shitty behavior you speak of? Without examples it is impossible to determine if you are discussing behavior that is straight-up pathological (e.g. name-calling) or people having a different opinion.

Yes

Ford's only car on offer is the Mustang, everything else is some kind of compact SUV, full size SUV, or truck. Other automakers are similar (some offer more sedans and hatches still). Guess I won't be buying a Ford when I need a new car.

Important to point out that their wealth is largely unrealized gains, that is, only exists in theory. If the stock market / bond market / whatever market crashed, this wealth would largely vaporize. Stock prices are essentially a mass agreed-upon hallucination, as they can be extremely divorced from real assets like industrial machines. It does mean that by controlling these stock etc assets, other people have a harder time getting into this slice of pie and they can do dumb shit like buying Twitter and summarily running it into the ground.

Jfc, you are angry.

I point it out because most people here don't seem to understand how it works when announcements like this are made.

Lol okay. I am apparently a bad actor for simply adding information to the discussion that always rapidly devolves into simple "eat the rich" rhetoric. Sure, go on with your sanctimonious lecturing, I'm here all day.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. This could have the makings of constructive dismissal. Relocate to a place with vastly different legal protections or be fired? Hmm. Since it also would possibly disproportionately affect female employees, I wonder if some discrimination could also come in to play?

Not a lawyer, just spitballing ideas.

I applaud you fighting back against the hive mind. I have been working on it as well when I have the energy to engage. Thanks for making this point.

The USA isn't a Christian government though, so I'm not sure I follow your point.

Well, they're wrong.

Idaho Governor Proposes $2 Billion in Funding for School Buildings Over Next 10 Years ( www.propublica.org )

Idaho Gov. Brad Little on Monday proposed spending $2 billion over 10 years to help school districts repair and replace their aging buildings. This would mark the largest investment in school facilities in state history, he said....

CherenkovBlue ,
@CherenkovBlue@iusearchlinux.fyi avatar

Thank fuck. The school infrastructure is abysmal, and it's incredibly hard to pass a bond for more funding. Idaho schools need help, and I'm glad Little basically got shamed into this.

If you want to run for office, its your duty to understand what you are required to file. Find a lawyer who specializes in this, perhaps, or work with your local party office? Not the greatest initial performance for someone looking to serve in office.
