Completely believed it. Expect it to happen.

I upvoted this but it didn't feel like enough so I'm adding my own...

What the fuck?!?!

So Ukraine is now fighting a multifront war. Great...

I did an Alaska cruise with my mom. I was so nervous about it - thought i would feel trapped and bored and shuffled about like cattle. It was actually a great way to travel with her - being older and struggling a bit with memory changes. Was really just a floating hotel, so we could visit different cities each day without unpacking and she was able to learn her way around the ship a little, find the room, remember the restaurant options, etc. We went to the show on the first night and we both found it pretty offensive, so we spent most evenings at a jazz bar/karaoke bar. I think it would be fun with a group - i saw a lot of big groups sitting around chatting and playing games together at night.

She did an African safari last summer and said that was probably her favorites. She's a history teacher and used to do European trips with high school kids, so that was a cheap way to travel when she was younger. Now she lives pretty frugally so she can take a nice trip each summer.

A friend had a goal of 50 states and 50 countries by her 50th birthday. She turned 51 with 50 states and 53 countries.

Nice use of industry terminology!

My first thought too - when she sees the kooks, will she remember that she was hired because she is/was one?

Can we send him away and bring back Matthew Perry?

 

My $20 won't do much, but i feel like i need to send an apology for the way he was treated.

 

I'm moving into a house with a pool in a couple of months. I have a 20# dog who is blind and I'm trying to think of ways to keep her safe. The area from the back door/patio to the pool is all concrete, so installing fencing would require drilling holes. Looking for something temporary that could be removed during parties. I suggested wooden planters spaced every 8+10 feet with a bracket to hold a board. Husband didn't like that. I'm still leaning towards that, but looking for other ideas. Thoughts?

 

The only two sources with headlines that mention Musk called him retarded are Salon and Daily Beast. The Hill did say that Musk called him an idiot. All the rest just say they're fighting and that Morgenson called out Musk's lie. Why does everyone have to sugarcoat and 'both sides' everything?!?!

 

but everytime I search for it, my TV just says, "sure" or "ok," and increases the volume.

 

I get that the point is inflation, but why eggs? If they went to $12/dozen, it would cost me like $4 extra dollars per week.

 

We ate here a few years ago and I wanted to see the movie. I was a little disappointed at the lack of chainsaw massacre that took place. What was that Grandpa hammer scene? What happened to Black Maria?

She was my mom's. Very sweet but she causes a cat fight every day and i have to cover my bed with a solar blanket to keep her from pottying on it.

I work in a public school district and i visit about a dozen different schools. Bosses are making us share our calendars, thinking they'll be able to track us and catch us doing something wrong. I'm planning to add "started my period" every couple of weeks. Are there other good outlook tricks to fuck with them?

ETA- This is my work calendar, not my personal calendar. I know that seems reasonable but it's being done as a petty micromanagement tactic. There are about 20 of us in my department who drive from school to school every day working with kids with physical disabilities. They don't just want to know when we're in meetings - they want every minute of our day to be accounted for - 8 to 830 school A, 840 to 11 school B, etc. I go to 14 schools. If my kid at school A is absent or if i get a call from school J that i need to stop by to fix a wheelchair, am I supposed to pull over and update my calendar so they can find me? I could spend an hour a day in parking lots editing my calendar. Most days i eat lunch in my car between schools. Last year they made a rule that we can't carry to-go cups because it looks like we have enough free time to drive thru Starbucks. It's just to be controlling.

 

I'm non-techy. I work for a public school district and visit with kids in about a dozen schools. I like having my work email on my phone so teachers can get in touch if they need me. For years we've just used the outlook app with no real issues that I've noticed. We're seeing more and more micromanagement and it sucks. We recently got notice that we have to install Cisco Duo on our phones if we want to have our email on it. Should i do that? Or just say no and be ok with being out of contact?
