Not sure if it’s helpful, but pivotal steps in my career path involved unintentional networking.

Started working at a call center reading scripts and calling it “tech support” from that job I made friends with a coworker with a similar interest in computers. A few years later he was working in-house IT for a major company and referred me.

A few years in that field and I made friends with another coworker who got me interested in scripting / coding. A few years later after meeting that friend, he was working as a software developer and referred me to my first coding job.

Once my foot was in the door I would learn and grow in each position until I felt like I stopped growing my skillset and I would find a new job where I could build new skills.

It helps that I have a genuine interest and enjoyment in learning and improving my skills. Computers and technology just happened to be the skillet that people started to pay me for. I could have just as easily ended up a machinist, contractor, chef or any other profession sparked by a personal interest of mine.

No, he’s very chill and easy going. Just kinda goes with the flow of whatever is happening. The most common thing we imagine running through his head, after “I want treats”, is “Well, this is my life now”.

Thought my Mr Mason had a secret family for a moment.

The band did not provide details about Rivers’s cause of death.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Rivers left the band in 2015 after being diagnosed with liver disease, but returned to the stage following a liver transplant in 2018.

Rivers said that he got the disease from “excessive drinking.”

It happens, and they aren’t as impactful as they are represented in movies, TV, and comics.

I first learned about this phenomenon when Phoenix Jones was arrested for using pepper spray to break up a street fight. That’s when I learned that there are a handful of people all over the world that don a mask to confront crime. There’s a list on Wikipedia.

Founding Father, Alexander Hamilton was shot and killed in a duel for insulting Vice President at the time, Aaron Burr.

Should have used one of these instead

Another user said bluntly: “Epstein files still missing, sir.”

Some of the memes he posted. The last one is what got him arrested and the the $2mil bond for “threatening a school shooting”.

If only Republicans cared about what Americans thought.

The LDS / Mormon church has an estimated worth $293 BILLION (source). They don’t need to ask for money. This is marketing, not compassion and not charity.

Not defunct and was only my favorite for a very short period of time, but it left an impression and I still find myself referencing it from time to time. Serving the same great content for 25 years!

Don’t go into coding if you don’t have a passion for it and are just looking for a lucrative career path. With the exception of some niche specialties, that field is over saturated.

Disclaimer: The following suggestions are uninformed guesses and should be treated as such.

If you want to go through school, maybe psychiatry? Lots of interesting insight into people that can help inform your stories. Plus, the mix of growing normalization of mental health and current trends, I see this as a growing industry.

If you want to skip university, look at trades like electrician, plumber, nurse, etc. Good money and, at least for now, there is a lot of focus on careers that require (or at least favor) 4 year degrees, some competition for work is significantly less.

So many better pic of Musk they could have used

Tricia McLaughlin, assistant secretary for public affairs at the Department of Homeland Security, sent a statement to the Guardian, saying the officer’s actions were “unacceptable and beneath the men and women of Ice”.

…

According to local news outlet AMNY, the agent was seen last month forcibly pulling a teenage girl from her father’s arms as she cried. The outlet also noted that several court observers have raised concerns for months about his physical conduct.

You sure that behavior isn’t acceptable, Tricia? Sounds like it was accepted for several months before now.

Not directly, and sometimes not in the direction the responder probably intended.

Comments have introduced me to new ways of viewing topics, exposed blindspots in my way of thinking, bolstered my existing opinions, and otherwise motivated me to question and / or do more independent research.
