Samsies, my sister had other issues and was for sure the one who needed more effort from my parents. Meanwhile, I got A’s without much effort in HS and for the most part in college (until Masters, which of course landed me with a bit of a breakdown and being depressed for a long while). I’m not formally diagnosed, but that’s mostly because I feel it’s largely a waste of money for my case (I checked into it a while back when I had terrible insurance, and it was gonna cost me something like $1200).

Probably because you were the easy one? That was what it was for me, didn’t realize until my mid 20s (covid really wrecked havoc with my studying in college because I couldn’t go to a physically separate space that I had designated as a place I couldn’t goof off).

Make peas, not war.

Well, at least the children…

Yes, but it doesn’t have Florida man. Although I’d suspect Mississippi has higher chance than California.

I’m a survivor. We’re a dying breed.

Later one. For sure.

I mean, he’s driving a charger soo…

Aw, dang it!

Thank Mr skeltal!

Very much a ymmv, but I use Firefox on windows and Linux, don’t really have an issue with it. Hope it helps!

Maybe try an extension like chameleon? I’ve had it on with ublock when using YouTube for a bit, makes it seem like I’m using chrome to YouTube.

Out of curiosity, have you had the issue of drivers using their phones on those roads? It’s a pretty big issue in the US at pretty much any speed, wonder if it affects y’all?

Last one: People who don’t know how to use a truck.

Nice.

Depression never ended, and the robber barons own everything. Good news is housing is cheaper, but food slightly more expensive.

I kinda suspect it’s the latter. I drive around pretty randomly for fun, and the amount of Trump signs and flags in yards is arguably higher than it has ever been. That being said, I think it’s pretty telling they rarely have a Trump/Vance sign, so if Trump were to step down they’d probably lose pretty heavily.

I hope so, but I have my doubts. I’m in greensboro now, and I see his signs pretty often. My only hope is that Trump supporters actually listen to what he says, because they tend not to actually like him when they look into what he says (had at least one coworker that’s a trump supporter express support for him, but when he actually looked him up, he didn’t like him that much).

And next thing you know it’s the next morning. Which is why I don’t play factorio too often.

But the price increase kinda is a symptom of the underlying issue. For reference, the reason that subway subs were $5 for a long time was that the company was trying an advertising campaign to grow the brand, which it did amazingly well (honestly, far too well). However, those were not sold at a sustainable price, but whenever the company tried to raise the price it was perceived very poorly by the market. So they kept the price low for a long time, and eventually had to raise it but due to inflation (and decreasing the sub size to compensate for the low price before that), but the price increase was pretty drastic to most of the customers who often stopped going there.

In other words, the company kept the price down artificially to keep their stock price high, and foisted a lot of the actual costs onto the franchisees, of which they had tons. Which is obviously not a sustainable business model, and it’s why less people go to subway anymore.
