To anyone who doesn't want to watch videos, it's a reference to "Beauty and The Beast", specifically the intro where the entire town sings a song containing lines such as "look there she goes that girl is so peculiar, " "yes she's strange, no question" and "what a puzzle to the rest of us is Belle" (her name) the whole time she is walking around town, well within hearing distance.

While job searching this year, I had someone ask "are you okay with me using an AI assistant to record your voice to take notes during the call?"

To which I said no.

She then said "sorry but the position has been filled, we can go ahead and cancel this interview"

I've gone a step up, and am inhaling chunks of metal.

(I operate a saw cutting aluminum and have decided to wear a face mask but should probably wear a respirator instead)

You know those metal benches with metal arches for "arm rests" a lot of cities installed about a decade ago?

A lot of them use standard size bolts and Allen keys. No security, or maybe torx if anything.

Also an adjustable crescent wrench and multi-size Allen wrench tool fit nicely inside a pocket.

A cordless impact driver and associated bits fit in a small backpack as well.

What do those tidbits of info have in common?

Well that's up to the reader.

TO BE CLEAR, in case anyone doesn't understand, I am advocating for people to go out and disassemble anti-homeless architecture as a fuck you to the people who put it there. Being homeless is never a choice (not counting extreme outliers). Life is already shitting on them, denying them even a bench to sleep on for the night is just evil.

You can never get a word in edgewise when he's around.

without the issue of spine cracking that glued, perfect-bound books are prone to

My first edition copy of The Crystal Shard by RA Salvatore cracked a few years ago and in the last move I lost a page somehow.

Stitched is 100% better AND allows me to easily re-cover an old book.

The things I inherited from my grandpa are valuable.

0 chance I'd even consider selling them. I will be giving them away or willing them to people when I die/get older though.

I'd say I don't believe it, but I've seen someone beat dark souls with a guitar, so who am I to question the lengths people will go through to be able to say "git gud"
