This had been done before. Techmoan on YouTube did a video on a symphonic piece that was put on vinyl backwards. It’s something about how the needle travels slower at the center increases the possible dynamics vinyl can reproduce

Why? It’s not uncommon for a sewage line to be above the floor level of the basement.

It was probably an unfinished basement that someone added a toilet to. You can’t put the toilet below the sewage line.

It’s probably in a basement and the sewage line is a few feet above ther floor.

I got that same deal, but somewhere along the way they started charging me a monthly fee.

It was a huge pain to cancel, because it wasn’t showing anywhere that I’d actually subscribed, so I couldn’t just unsubscribe from the app or website.

I’ve used one of these before. The main problem is that you’re often put on a hold for at least 72 hours.

And while this does help get you out of that immediate crisis, missing 3 days of work and pay can actually put you in a worse position when you get out.

And mental institution stays aren’t always super helpful for long-term mental health. Many of them are as bad, if not worse than being in jail.

I was never trained to run their register, so mistakes are bound to happened.

The problem is that “yourself” still comes out eventually. And sometimes it takes a long while to find “the one” because you kind of hid certain aspects from your partners for too long. This is generally why most of my longer-term relationships have failed. Too many “best faces forward” for too long, until one breaks that

I was mid 30s when I found the one that is “the one”. We had our first date in our work clothes, and had a conversation that would sound insane to any observers. For the last 5 years, I’ve never felt the need to hold anything back or change the way I talk about things, and I dont think she does either. Because we still have insane conversations

To me, it’s very zen. it’s more about putting the situation in the perspective that you need to handle the situation for what it is and not focus on being upset at the situation or being upset at not having a solution. Not every scenario has an end that works out for you, If you even have any control over it.

I usually hear it said when someone is having difficulty with a problem they have no real control over. Sometimes you just have to let things go and deal with your own emotions on the situation (which nobody else can do for you), or remove yourself from the situation entirely.

Find a trade. If you’re good at what you do, it really doesn’t matter how wierd or fucked up you are. You can even get in full-on arguments with your boss that get forgotten about once everyone calms down.

As long-term career advice, I think this is helpful In finding something that doesn’t drag you down. If you can’t be yourself at work it’s going to be far more taxing.

But I absolutely understand this is a luxury to be able to be in that position of being choosy about your employer.

You’ll be far happier in an environment that enjoys you for being you, but you’ll find a job quicker by saying what they want to hear

Somwhat related quote from my father in law about being a good worker:

“First year, they like you. Second year, they love you. Third year, they just start using you”

Idk. Im 40 and hurt myself on a bouncy slide not long ago.

My body defintely isnt in agreement with how young i feel.

Mainly the only thing I need it for now is occasionally trailering a tractor, but at the time I bought it my current truck, I was still doing tree work and hauling a lot of wood.

We’ve tried both clover and thyme, but we can’t get them to really take off. But I think we just weren’t doing enough at a time and wildlife was eating it all. Our current course of action has been killing sections of grass with a tarp, then planting the clover and our first patch is doing well.

I have genuine need for a full size truck, but all of them from the last 15-20 years are just way too damn big. And they put big stupid hoods on them to look tough that kill visibility. I miss my old 80s and 90s chevys. Perfect size. Heavy enough to pull most loads I need, but actually maneuverable.

My 2013 2wd 1500 needs a 2 acre field to make a u turn.

By all accounts, he was an awesome person. Full on embodiment of rock n roll. Life-long meth addict, alcoholic, and womanizer, but you never hear anything bad about him. He managed to be all those things and still be good person.

I’m a huge motorhead fan. The name is a not insignificant part of why I chose this as a reddit alternative over the others

I think that plays into it, but my most of these people aren’t wealthy. They were all working class. And the most left of these people that I still talk to is is probably better off than most of the rest off them. But he’s also financially comfortable because he was union.

But I think of lot of those people forgot how bad struggling really is. Nostalgia clouds a lot of opinions. I still tell stories and laugh about some things I had to do when I was struggling, and they can kind of seem like fun stories now that it’s over, and the older I get, the less i think about how much it actually sucked.

I’m an elder millennial, raised by boomer hippies. My parents stayed pretty leftist their whole lives, a few of their friends still lean pretty hard left.

But many of their old “hippie” friends have gone pretty right in the last decade or so. These people had been liberal my whole life, until they hit about 60ish, and several have gone pretty conservative

I think it has a lot more to with getting old and not understanding new social trends, so you just go the other way because it’s comfortable

Same here. I mostly hung out in smaller, hobby subreddits. And the few I’ve found here are mostly dead. I really want to nerd-out with other people about shit nobody else cares about
