"I hate temporal mechanics"

In my local Target and Walmart, the underwear section is a mess with all packaging scattered amongst the various walls. I can tell when they're short staffed by how disorganized it is. I buy stuff from CostCo now for better quality and that section as well as ALL the clothing tables are kept in order.

I had a long discussion with my bank's branch manager about this. They assured me that I don't have overdraft protection. I've yet to have any fees since I keep a reasonable balance. I want my debit card to fail and my check to bounce. He assured me that's what would happen.

A neighbor pointed out to me that Venmo, Paypal, and other such services lack the consumer protections of a credit card. So, I don't use them. If I have a problem with a purchase, I know my credit card vendor will contact the merchant and deal with it. Even if the vendor says "All sales are final", I'll get a refund when I challenge the sale.

Another one by the same moving company apparently. I hope it was a different driver and their new insurance policy will cover this.

Imagine mentioning climate change and the raising temperature at an on-site meeting in TX when you, from BC, Canada get called into HR for being culturally insensitive. That shit may be illegal in TX but it's not in CA. See you in court.

It'd be better if Pope Leo deputized and trained additional Vatican Guards and deployed them at various locations. Also a priest.

I'm perfectly fine switching back to a "feature phone" aka dump phone that takes phone calls and sends texts. If it also could be used as a music/podcast playiner, that'd be great too.

I wonder what would happen if the names, addresses, and schools of the families of everyone that works in the sheriff's department were blasted out on social media.

Now that Youtube has returned to NO AD BLOCKING enshitification, I wonder what Youtube Creators are seeing with their viewing metrics. I switched to In Cognito or Private viewing, which may effect their metrics and monetization.

I had a family friend of my Nana from Hungary make a dessert from blueberries before my eyes when I was 14.

Rinse and place blueberries in a saucepan. If they're a bit tart, add 1 or 2 Tablespoons of sugar. Warm of medium heat until some of the berries pop, creating juice. Optionally, add 1 Tablespoon of lemon juice. Remove from heat and let cool. Serve warm or chilled with a large dollop of sour cream.
