Hey thanks, this is an idea that I hadn’t thought much about and I’ll have to consider it. I also need consider storage and how to get to a range without a car but those things are workable.
As for my mental health, I’m doing well and feel in a good place all around. I got married a year and a half ago and have a stable life. I’m doing good. This will have to be a process if I’m going to buy a rifle but your arguments have opened me to the idea.
I wish I could after on the guns things but I should not own a gun! I have a history of depression and I super don’t want to have easy access.
That said, put a gun in my hands and I’ll do my part to end fascism. I’m even a fairly decent shot for having only fired a gun 3 different times. Just please take the thing away from me when I rotate out.
Better yet, get me an fpv headset.

Windows 10. I’ve since moved on to 11 but haven’t tried it since then.
I am also interested in the Lemmy opinion of windscribe. My wife really likes them but their app used to brick my computer requiring a hard reset so I don’t use them.
I think the part that always pissed me off more is that it doesn’t really matter where it came from! No one is really trying to let out a virus to ravage the planet… Unless they’re a bond villain.
We need to figure out where it came from because it’s important to prevent it happening in the future but politicizing it was always pretty fixing stupid.
What is more important is we have a new virus that is brutal and we need to stop or show its spread. My parents were on the Fox News bandwagon and would always tell me that I believe they’re crazy for thinking it came from China. I tried so many times to explain to them, it doesn’t matter where it came from, it’s out, in the global population, and we need to try to mitigate and prevent damage.
They threaten to do this every time… And so like whatever, there are other news aggregators.
Don’t worry, I’ve got you covered!
I’m an American but the $1 burgers from Maccas were a life saver down there. I used to get 2 a day while I hitchhiked. But y’all also have canned tuna with some great flavors!
I was told going down there that it was outrageously expensive. And I found that true when talking about non-essentials, headphones and quality clothes. But groceries were shockingly cheap the entire time I was down there. I could spend $30 on a burger and fries, or I could get a weeks worth of food from woolies or coles.
Even better, the corner store, the gas station really, was owned by coles and I could get milk and eggs (things I want fresh, in small batches) and a small selection of anything else I wanted for the exact same price as the larger stores! This freed me up to get veggies and fruit at the market and always have enough food unlike at home.
While in Australia, I had higher quality food for less money with more convenience. All while getting told by people back home how expensive it was when they visited. Maybe I had a different experience since I went for a year but I live in Seattle now and I miss having a corner store within a 5 minute walk that sold all my essentials.
Also Woolies has their mini stores in the big cities and those things are fire.
But I’d rather look at what modern people are doing and saying.
We would too but unfortunately fascists pretend that they’re not fascist by claiming their political party freed the slaves.
This obviously ignores their bigotry and hate for people of color and distaste for women… And well, I digress. Suffice to say that these assholes try to claim they’re not racist despite all the racist bullshit and hate they spread, and they use this claim as proof.
We would love to ignore it but we can’t. Best we can do is inform ourselves.
Literally anything as long as I take ritalin first. Turns out I have ADHD.
Wait… You what now?
You know I don’t work with fractions of an inch on a daily basis… Or even monthly. But inevitably a couple times a year it’s relevant. Every single time I have to take 3/4 multiply it by 2 and get 6/8, then I have to subtract 1/8 to get to 5/8. Repeat ad nauseum to get to whatever time fraction is needed.
It’s frustrating and slow and makes me feel dumb.
That said last time I did it, I measured a 1/8th difference between cabinets we ordered from IKEA and the space they went in and I’ll tell you what, I felt like a genius when it all just fit, perfectly.
A lot of people are saying they did this job as a teenager, I did it mid 20’s and yes, I liked the job. I never had to deal with customers, I just pushed carts. But people leaving carts in the middle of nowhere were a babe on my existence.
I don’t know how many carts there were in or store but on a normal day and especially a busy day they would be constantly used. Our corrals would all overflow simultaneously if not emptied. And then you have some dipshit who decides they can’t be asked to walk a little further. I had to have a route in order to collect carts and keep our corrals under control. If I had to walk an extra 10 minutes out of my way to get a cart it would set me back 20+ minutes of work, without fail. And if I didn’t collect it then carts would start piling up, without fail. Then you’d get the mixed cart bullshit and you can only push so many mixed carts.
Putting your cart makes the job actually reasonable. You can plan and coordinate and organize yourself to know where to go when to pick up carts. It allows you to predict where carts will end up and efficiently walk so you’re not destroying your body. When people screw with that rhythm the whole thing goes to pot.
I mean that’s cool but also not really a rebuttal to the user above. Now the person above is not correct. Kids absolutely know when they’re getting the short end of a deal or at least when it comes to stuff they care about. And Congress didn’t give a flying fuck about the good of the children or we’d have a food guarantee for all children and single prayer health care already.
A little humor helps.
Yeah, you’re right. I’m glad that they’re paid more and I’m glad tipping is still possible but it just seems super uncool to remove the prompt.
I had an argument with a coworker once about their second job. They said they blacklist people who don’t tip them for delivering pizza. I was surprised and asked them to explain and they said that most of their money came from tips. Without it they made state minimum wage and the job wasn’t worth it.
I said they should be paid better.
My coworker responded that they are paid better by people tipping and that’s why they blacklist people who don’t tip.
I followed it up by pushing the idea that the restaurant should be paying them more so that the job is worth it without tips. And well… The whole thing devolved for some reason and almost ended with me getting punched.
Either way I think you should be paid a living wage and have the ability to get tips for going above and beyond. Tipping shouldn’t be the norm/required but it should be available and it sounds like it is in this case just a bit more hidden.
Well that’s fucked up

Edit: Honestly now that I look at the site linked… I just have no idea what this site is or who I’d be donating to. I’ve never seen that website before.
I’ll add Geocaching to this list. Walk around, find hidden caches and solve puzzles.
It’s not focused on the walking places but instead on the finding of caches. I personally need to get out and do some that involve going on hikes!
