So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.

I found this on NewsBreak: Russia Loses 25 Tanks in Two Days As Video Shows Deadly Strike: Ukraine https://share.newsbreak.com/302k0nca
@ScottSoCal yep! And yet, look at it flourish in Summer. I need to take some inspiration from the bendy tree :)
In 2021, my house used an average of 23.4KWh of electricity per day. Last October I installed a 10KW solar setup on my house, and I'm planning to switch out natural gas water heater and furnace to heat pumps that use electricity. The days are still short, and I'm not producing as much as I will in the summer, but yesterday - WOOHOO!

In the picture a light red cat is stretched out over a concrete sidewalk, next to them is a collection of cat paw prints indented into the concrete.

The VC people built their houses to have backup generators and whole-house battery systems. They're not being affected. They don't care about anyone else.
Talking to friends in Austin who are enduring yet another large-scale catastrophic infrastructure failure, and Iβm wondering if any of the shitbird VCs who were encouraging everyone to move to Texas have yet noted that the policy regime theyβre so fond of is harming so many people, so consistently.

More of a Russian spy Barbie. Pushaw is cheap, plastic, and bad for the environment. Whatever environment, she's bad for it.

Meanwhile, Russia's spy balloon remains intact in Florida.

Iβm speechless and devastated by the destruction and loss of life from two powerful earthquakes in Turkey and Syria. The world must do what it can to come to the aid of the many thousands of victims.

I'm also in favor of banishing anyone who calls themself an influencer.
This is one for those of you who are trauma-centered like me.
My wife just came home really angry at something from work. Like REALLY angry. Straight to yelling at me and the kids. Yelling about how the house is messy and makes her sick. etc.
Normally I internalize this as my fault. My mom was bipolar and borderline and everything was my fault and I was responsible for my little sister's safety. So usually when this happens, I get really hot and make the kids clean and do all the things to try to make her happy, and I end up getting stressed at the kids because they're not cleaning fast enough, and it's all badness.
But not today!
I said "Okay, you need to go out of the house and do something. Go eat, go to the gym, whatever. You need to go take care of yourself. I will make dinner and clean with the kids but this went straight to darkness and we don't need that."
And she looked at me like I was crazy.
And then went to the gym.
I'm extremely proud of myself right now. I have never done that before.
My biggest fear is taking a shower and a home invasion starts. Fighting a burglar naked is the most terrifying thought for BOTH of us

Today I got to have a lengthy conversation about soldering.
Yes, I know the capacitors are close together.
Yes, I know the connector leads are right next to the capacitors.
Yes, I know it's hard to get the soldering iron in there.
Yes, I know the requirements are very strict.
This is going into space. If it was easy, anyone could do it. We hired you, because you have lots of experience.
(Did we make a mistake?)
Iβm working on my cover letter and need some advice.
So far Iβve got:
I have over ten years of experience in auditing, analytics, and reporting and Iβm perpetually crippled by a ridiculously strong work ethic and extremely obnoxious attention to detail, so I will work my ass off and I will not fuck shit up.

So, my question is, I know ten should be spelled out, but I feel like 10 looks better from a visual and impactful perspective, so would that still be appropriate in this case?

But sometimes, if they're obnoxious about assuming I'm straight, it's fun to see their expression when I correct them.

DISMAYED to have to say this but apparently I need to:
JKR is a virulent transphobe who has SAID OUTRIGHT that purchasing Harry P*tter merch = supporting her views
