I’m in a position where I work with a team of 8 fixed employees that could easily work hybrid schedules. Our manager is hybrid though, and barely spends any time at the office. It creates such a difficult dynamic- our team works together really well but when our manager does come in it feels like an intrusion almost. Immediate us vs them just because everyone else spends so much time together.

You can absolutely spread natural peanut butter on bread (ie ingredients: peanuts). Are you thinking of powdered peanut butter? Because that you would need to rehydrate to use as a spread.

Bara bada bastu!!

I can’t thank you enough for sharing this.

You can’t leave us hanging. What’s the best answer you got?

If their venom glands are removed. Note: this is super cruel and has a high risk of failure

I’m going to be honest, I read on my Kobo way more than I read physical books, and I own a floor to ceiling bookshelf in desperate need of weeding. Public library integration through Libby can’t be beat, I love that it has a backlight, and it’s more comfortable to read long novels especially- and no danger of ruining. Don’t get me wrong- I love the tactile feel of paper and the smell of old books, but there’s a lot to be said for convenience. Also- library ebooks don’t accrue late fees, which have been a major source of guilt for me my entire life.

I asked my google home the same question and it told me that I told it that my dog is a good girl 3 times. I know it’s not great for privacy, but it made me chuckle.

I would say that an artificial dad is the partner of a married single mom.

Running a country the same way he ran his casinos.

If a group of parents coordinated wearing “All Lives Matter (but Black Lives Matter Less)” wristbands to protest inclusion of a black athlete, sure.

Thank you. I’m always so fascinated by different superstitions.

To invite the devil in? Or is this a different superstition?

You’re not wrong. The parents chose not to vaccinate, and vaccines almost certainly would have prevented this outcome. Where I’m struggling is the “serves them right” attitude when it wasn’t the parents who paid for their mistake- it was a small child with no say in the matter. It’s possible to feel anger towards the parents (though it doesn’t change anything at this point) and still have empathy for the actual victim.

Sorry, what do you mean their choice? I hope by them you mean the parents, because the poor girl had no chance.

If something takes more than 4 years it gets lumped into “never” territory because no political party wants the next party to get credit for their work.

Guarantee it took Germany more than 4 years to recover their reputation (and even then, not enough to do well in Eurovision).

Robin Hood only took money from the rich. Luigi took life (allegedly), and scared the other rich folks enough to allow some life (healthcare) for the plebs for some short time.

I think it’s Jaguar. They’re doing a bonkers rebranding right now where you can’t tell what the ads are trying to sell.

GATTACA! GATTACA!
