Not a carrier but stumbling around the internet looking for answers to questions while I work alone with no supervision I found the r/USPS subreddit.

Shitposting and bitching with some "how do I handle this situation, help!?!" posts/comments from other postal workers.

If you can stand Reddit (or just focus on exactly one sub) its not a terrible place to skim for the general ideas on what to do in what kind of situations. Its a bit more "negative" than "positive" so do what you can to keep from internalizing the negative sentiments and focus on the more factual stuff put in the posts and comments.

There's was just a whole lotta jagoff going on over on that old post.

Unconcerned.

If a draft does happen, just don't report. It will be stressful but its doubtful that the US policing forces will be able to do both "deporting all brown people" duty and "rounding up everybody who didn't report for the draft" duty.

Shit, when you do regular military service you are expected to do a "Reserve" stint that lasts some amount of years after your active duty term is over. Thing is, unless you did some really niche job, nobody is going to take the time to hunt you down if you don't report to a reserve unit. Even with all the "we never meet recruiting numbers" articles and "retention is horrible" articles.

Assuming the leg recovers mostly okay in a few weeks, it should be able to be reintroduced to a herd of geese before they migrate. Looks kinda young but deffinitly not a baby.

Somebody doesn't live in a college town.

Not to defend their other takes but this is not what they meant at all, the hexbear dunking machine just assumed that as assuming is what it does best.

skimming through those comments... that commenter went into "The Nazi's weren't all that bad" and "Maybe Nazi's had it right about the Jews" pretty quick.

Parades are pretty expensive. Gotta clean up all the trash afterwards.

The pager attack wasn't targeted, it was just distributing thousands of exploding pagers/walkie-talkies and then pushing a button that exploded them all.

Killing Iran's "top people" is mostly bullshit as these top people in things like politics and the sciences are public figures who have publicly available addresses and do things like "go outside" and "buy food from the grocery store".

Like, the nuclear research programs aren't secret. Iran isn't engaged in a super secret Manhattan style project where all their top scientists are kept in underground bunkers for decades with no contact with the outside world, right?

Israel has had a fuckton of time to infiltrate Iranian society and decades to set up things like the local exploding drone shops though. However, how long can those last after an actual war is started?

Trump is a dummy-dum and while being totally fine being a warmonger in the sheets, will still make dove-ish statements in the streets.

Israel's "secret" is that they'll attack all the civilians and civilian infrastructure knowing (or believing) that the world will never make them stop.

 

I used to have an account on that woke instance. Left the dumpster fire for lemmy.ml. Not going to entertain obvious censorship on Lemmy.

So I got around to getting a new digitizer (screen) and replacement battery for an ancient iPhone and got them installed.

Question for those who've replaced digitizers...

Any ideas as to why the screen will behave as if its being touched in a bunch of places without actually being touched?

Its not all the time, maybe 2 or 3 times in a day. All I have to do is turn off the screen and wait a few seconds.

This is the second digitizer I've replaced but the first time I've had this issue. Mostly just curious if there someone more technically inclined/experienced with an answer other than guessing.

 

150+ pounds so far (that I need to get put in the freezer) and probably another 100 still in the tree.

 

Pay is less than my old job.

Hours are less than my old job.

Two more work days a week than my old job.

Zero supervision and I'm in a building completely alone for 3~7 hours (depending on the day).

But at least its not temporary (until its decided that the office isn't "economically feasible" and I wind up out of work again). So I guess that's something.

I wonder how long it will take me to get settled so that I can get back into reading again? thonk

Its about the only thing that's got me low key excited. Been too long since I was able to read any theory related books without my tired brain just shutting down.

 

Finally got around to watching this.

For all of the criticisms that this movie got... its really good. Surprisingly good.

I bet that if the aesthetics of this were like... Darkstar , instead of super polished, nobody would have batted an eye.
