Everyone who doesn’t own a gas powered car.

There are plenty of people for whom this is not a true statement.

I don’t know this for sure but I’m thinking this is happening due to something about how OLED/AMOLED screens work.

You can still find the mind enriching parts if you look. It’s a neutral communication medium at this point, the barriers to entry just don’t really exist anymore. People use it how they will. Dumb people will use it in dumb ways. 50% of people are dumber than the average person. That’s a lot of people.

In Oracle you’d just set up a user that has limited access and give them those credentials. Creating a few views that pulls in the data they want is a bonus.

Oh God I try super hard not to do this at work with phrases like “it’s my understanding that” and “it appears that”. It’s such a cop out on something that I’m supposed to be authoritative about. It’s really tempting though.

During the pandemic the grocery store was always sold out of bread flour and sometimes yeast, and the prices of tropical plants ballooned to 2-3x the usual price, with stores sometimes selling out of inventory as soon as they got it in. Some of this I’m sure can be attributed to supply chain issues but some of it was surely also due to consumer demand.

Yeah

As someone who made bread every week and took care of a lot of plants before the pandemic and is still doing so up to the present day, I’m quite glad everyone went back to “normal” so I don’t have to fucking compete with everyone to do these parts of my life.

I’ve got three cats. You just learn to look down everywhere you go and never walk backwards.

I just watched the original Halloween. When she tries to get help next door they don’t come to the door. Later she’s able to successfully attack Mike Myers from inside a closet.

Clothing stores are the worst. I love responding to “what’s your phone number?” With “no thank you”.

I thought that but then I also thought it’s possible they were trying to affect Mr. Krabs’ pirate accent

How are their symptoms though? Not bad right? By saying COVID is over I mean the more dangerous forms of it from 2020 and 2021 are gone. It’s barely worse than the flu at this point. I’m not saying people aren’t still getting it. It’s just mostly inconsequential.

That seems like a separate issue. I acknowledge your dread. It is important and should be addressed appropriately. I just don’t think the actual threat that COVID currently poses warrants such dread. You should be more afraid of heart disease, or car accidents, or something like that. Those things kill more people than COVID. Especially in 2023. It’s barely worse than the flu now. I was afraid of 2020 COVID. It’s not the same disease as it was then though.

Opinion: unless you or a loved on has some kind of immune system issue, COVID is pretty much over.

My town actually has a square. It’s nice to have.

Dude even stuff like bowling is too much now. An hour for two people can approach $70 at certain places. Not the bougie places either, those places are even more. I was browsing Google reviews for one place nearby like that and the owner responded saying that they should look for a Groupon.
