Reserved mine but am not as upset as other people seem. Glad steam is selling well and I just accept its a severe supply issue. I think its as the article says. They didnt anticipate this level of demand and theyre even trying to catch up in 2027.

Even more wholesome, he eventually becomes a father!

I find any assault to voting rights the most undemocratic and unamerican thing you can do

My employer has DEI but to prevent cuts from funding, they just changed the name and kept the policies. Its unfortunate but its better than having these policies and programs cut.

California : The fuck outta here

Personally a little sad over this. Have a bluray player and sometimes I want to be able to choose and pick a newer movie in 4k... Much cheaper than Amazon and Vudu to rent.

Social workers are all recommended to have a personal therapist for themselves. And its possible for the personal therapist to also have social work degree

Crocs. I had avoided them for years until I went on a kayaking tour on Vancouver Island. Well, while they were ugly AF, they are one of most comfortable shoes I've tried that are just... Easy to slip on and off?

So many people are talking and so focused on AI that everyone's been missing the robotics.

My husband has been showing me videos every week of robots from Japan, China, etc. Robotics has advanced insanely fast last few years.

Agreed. I work in healthcare. As healthcare workers we are obligated to treat any patients regardless of their political affiliation or background. I just provided services to a guy the other day with a huge swastika tattooed on chest. Ive administered care to prisoners, bully/aggressive patients, racists, sexists, and others I would not normally would not align myself with. It does not mean i support anything my patients do or their viewpoint. You cannot have people determining on their own that they are not doing their job because x,y,z especially with more public services involved. It is a very slippery slope

You cant make exceptions for some circumstances without the effects/consequences extending to other cases for opposite side as this commenter noted. All mail legally needs to be delivered, even in Canada. Props to the postal worker for trying to stand up for what they believe but agreed they should lose their job for it.

USB hand warmers. I am very sensitive to the cold and its so nice to hold while walking around or keeping in your pockets

Another fun trick I learned in sales is that if you're trying to get someone to purchase something, instead of having them focus on whether or not they should get something, change their question to something else.

For example, I used to sell phones. Instead of having people try to figure out if they want the newest Samsung or not, I would take the phone in two different colors and ask if they liked it in blue or black instead. Putting it in their hands let's them imagine having the phone already and the question changes from should I purchase this phone to what color do I want?

I'm quite sure this can translate to other questions and decisions people ask themselves

Taking off the pedals and training wheels of bikes and selling them to kids.

Wish I thought of that

My husband has specifically asked me not to talk to him about politics. He has verbalized he feels powerless and wants to focus on things he can control more within his immediate realm (dont worry guys, he's still voting Biden). He's also asked me to decrease the amount of depressing topics I share with him overall. I did tell him I recommend him read up on it because its "scary AF" and that I was quite scared

However, I do agree with other posters that its the lack of news coverage on the topic is why so many people are uninformed. We need more individuals to share and educate about this.

Why would Elon care now? He got something better already... Control of the whole country

I always wonder where and how these crazy sovcits are after all this time. October 2023 is quite a long time ago. Like I wonder if they're homeless, if they ever got back on their feet after everything they do fails.

Nurse manager here. I'm really confused why you would need to lie? Especially if the PIP is "unenforceable".

If you want to quit bedside just do it. Theres so many other fields of nursing out there. Honestly and genuinely speaking, you sound miserable :(

P.S. Peds pts may be compliant but overbearing parents with unrealistic expectations or peds deaths are not fun to deal with. Its not all rainbows... I would never touch nicu, PEDs, picu for that reason

"‘You have not tried all lower levels of care available in your area. You can learn to control your behaviors and stay at home. You can learn coping skills in your home. Your family can support you as you get treatment.’”

100% I believe they sent this to family... If addictions were so easy to manage we wouldn't have all these addiction programs

Picked up Doom Eternal for like $4, which is not bad at all. Believe can get $4 of gameplay out of it even if its not as good as predecessor.

Live in San Francisco and I am impressed with the Waymos. There's a lot of four way stops and lots of pedestrians. They honestly drive better than most people. There's a lot of times too where a car pulls up alongside another row of cars paralleled parked on the street and turns on their emergency lights to make a delivery or something. Waymos somehow check other side of the road and proceed around these cars going into the other side of the street safely.
