I've been assured that they learn more from each explosion than they do from each successful launch

Yes. Send an aid to get those, it's not my job to pick up your papers.

Maybe just air superiority fighting to harass and suppress Iranian industry with obviously tons of one sided mass murder and war crimes

Trump 2 culturally feels a lot like Bush 2 (w) to me, so my assumption is the hogs will go hog wild for some war

I got a Winix air purifier and am very happy with it. ~$100+ for a "luxury" (health) item though

Stainless steel for cookware is the way to go

Lotion, keep your skin hydrated

If you own a car, one of those "jumper pumper" battery packs is a game changer. Can charge or power household items during power outages, is great for camping, and can jump start a battery or pump a flat tire. Around $100 at Costco

Edit: and yes, a robo vacuum is a game changer. I also got an electric mop (still gotta hand push it, but it has rotating heads and a sprayer) and it makes mopping a lot less miserable

My department has lost half its engineers in the last 6 months to resignations. Three had previously complained about the senior making unprofessional and inappropriate comments. the senior was kept on and now most of our team is gone. Nothing's ever getting done around here now

I saw a rednote post about drivetrain bikes. Based on the comments, it sounds like one of the big "bike share" companies in China used shaft-driven bikes on the first generation. Users complained about the inefficient drivetrain and said it was much harder to pedal (especially uphill) compared to chain-driven bikes

Good for you. Do you have good footwear? Like, designed to be active on your feet all day shoes?
