My bad, never again

I think this is what Feelin Alright is about

It’s a fair point, but I think I gained some empathy and perspective on my own problems. Maybe it does something dark to a person but I’m definitely fairly confident.

I get to look at my phone and read interesting things/do Duolingo. The stress of a car would be similar or worse I think.

Humanity is interesting, warts and all

Waiting for a matatu and one dude starts beating the shit out of another. Two separate times.

Cool dude gets on near Bakersfield, sits next to me, drinks a 12 pack and tells me how he murdered people in prison.

Various people smoking crack, meth, and fety on trains and buses

Dude gets asked to turn his music down, goes on escalating and frankly impressive rant for 10 minutes about how he’s going to cut the guys head clean off with his machete

Various guys jacking off

Various rants against every race

Spent 90% of my life taking public transit and I love it. Big public transit fan and I wish people would intermingle more in general.

But, if you talk loudly or listen to music on the tinny speakers on your phone, you are the scum of the earth in my eyes. I’d rather have a dude strung out on heroin on the train than you, absolutely no hint of sarcasm.

Sure! Thanksgiving is principally a national holiday in the U.S. that traces its roots to religious and historical traditions from England, particularly during the early 17th century colonies in the New World.

It’s meant to be an autumn harvest holiday. The apocryphal story is that Puritans sat down with Native Americans to feast and celebrate goodwill between their respective groups but the evidence for this is suspect at best.

Over time, Thanksgiving became more popular and involves heavy travel during the (pre-) holiday season. It’s a chance for families to enjoy each others’ company before Christmas and feast on roast turkey and a variety of vegetable dishes.

Hope this helps! Go with God.

Acceptable only when accompanied by whimsy

Skipping and whistling are necessary, but not sufficient, components of frolicking

The constant distraction and availability resonate with me.

The main thing is to put in systems where you don’t need as much effort to handle daily business. Usually you can engineer your way out of high touch, multi-step process glue.

In my youth working manual labour jobs I was full of vinegar and wouldn’t wait for the trucking dolly. Older workers taught me to slow down and I took that advice into software work.

Is that what the three seashells are?

Aw rats.

Have tried to exterminate Jordan Peterson recommendations for years to no avail.

I wonder if YouTube lets these plugins through because it doesn’t want to attract antitrust suits

Beer is oddly terrible and weak in Australia but Toohey’s Old is good, more rare down here in Vic though

Mods you might want to remove this due to no politics, I will myself if you dont

Didn’t even think of that. You’re right.

Dual citizen with Australia, sorry. Though it is fairly light paperwork for Americans who are in tech - as in the U.S., the best chances are to get in stateside with a big company that has an Aussie HQ (Atlassian, Xero, Canva, FAANG, etc.) and then transfer

I left and got two Sr SWE positions within 3 months. It’s like the 90’s down here
