Bit of a hit and miss kind of start so far:

Took my TLR camera on a walk and got a really awesome shot with it but missed focus on one that was awesome too. Basically the in focus shot was unsettling and creepy to quite a degree and the one with the missed focus was depressing and heartbreaking to the same degree... Or at least it would have been if it was in focus.

Then today was a rough one at work as I was informed my paperwork I fill out everyday was changing. Specifically it was being changed as of today so I had to figure out the changes AND get all my other shit done without OT. I got it done but that was by no means an easy task.

If they ask for my face I'm done with Discord my friends and I will find a new place to chill

My eyes have been on an update binge lately, unfortunately it's just been downgrades.

"Looks like they slipped and shot themselves in the back if the head twice. Classic accidental death." — The cops probably.

I've only had issues on days when I swap my aligners but even my friends have a hard time those days lol

10/10 highly recommended

I also dig their keyboard, I just wish it supported like searching for gifs to put directly into messenger apps.

9/10

All things DNA is full of code that doesn't get activated and is just passed on anyways

Gene expression is what they mean by "activated"

Basically think of it like having a library of instruction books and only grabbing a few of them to do the project that needs done.

It's such a stupid take on his part

It'd be like a studio needing to fill a role for a black character with a black actor, putting out a casting call for black actors, then a famous black actor coming out against it.

It's stupid and only harms those that he's trying to help.

It's not like the studio was just going to hire the first 7 little people to show up, they were still gonna have to try to get the role.

8 years on an internal combustion engine is nothing if you preventative maintenance properly.

My newest car is 18 years old and the only thing wrong at the moment is the seals around 2 of the windows is finally leaking. All the work I've done is preventative maintenance and it's got about 180k miles on it. The previous owner did the same. I put about 20k miles a year on it since I bought it.

My other car is 25 years old and it's basically the same story except it's passing 200k miles soon, and I'm the 4th owner. And the previous owners neglected the hell out of the poor thing. I've only put about 15k miles on this one.

I'm going to drive them until I can't fix them.

I've got UHC and I recently had a hernia surgery.

When I went in about my hernia, because it was hurting really bad, they ended up finding another hernia that wasn't causing any pain. But because the other one wasn't causing any pain, UHC denied my surgery to fix the one that wasn't causing pain because it wasn't deemed medically necessary.

So basically when I went in to fix the one hernia, the doctor couldn't fix the other hernia because UHC wouldn't cover that half of the surgery.

So I'm sitting here years later with a hernia that I'm just waiting on the day that it starts hurting so that I can go spend another few thousand dollars fixing all because UHC didn't want to pay for preventative maintenance.

Edit: And I almost forget the best part, after the surgery they took 5 months to pay because they wanted to ensure that the other hernia wasn't fixed. And because they took so long to pay when I had to pay it was a nightmare for me using my FSA account for it.

Fuck UHC.

Slight correction the incoming administration is likely to do quite a bit for the average person.

All of it's going to be bad, but they're gonna do quite a bit.

Edit: Or one way to look at it is that they're going to do a lot to the average person not for the average person.

Blue Cross rolled back their decision on anesthesia, which was they would say how long a procedure should take and if it goes longer than they wouldn't cover the cost of anesthesia.

So that's 1 win.

It's also got a lot of people openly talking about improving our shitty healthcare system.

Plus it only happened a couple days ago, people need time to stew. And the rightwing media siding with the CEO is even coming across as deaf to the concerns of the conservatives I know.

Here's the gif from the article of it in action

NGL I think it's adorable

Head explode? Unlikely

Debilitating seizures? Probably quite easy once you get into the software

Oh no, we activated their trap card!

I worked in the food service industry for 5 years, yes they absolutely do.

We had to call the police on people multiple times in those years for things as simple as "1 too many pickles on burger" because the dude got 4 pickles when he asked for 3.

Every single day, multiple times a day, people came in and lost their shit because they were hungry.

My go to is, "I was camping in a really remote part of the local National Wilderness Area, didn't know something was wrong until I got back in cell range."

I also don't work in IT but I'm an avid hiker so it's hardly ever a lie lol

If I had to guess: no laws banning it yet

Oh I like this

I got it

And as a single poly bi dude I let out a chuckle, a curse, and an upvote.

I will be crawling around with this camera at night later this week when it stops raining sideways to do some long exposure shots

I don't want to wait too long of course because if the ground is still wet it gives a very cool vibe as well

It's going to be fun I feel
