No. Sometimes I have a computer in my dreams but it is usually useless.

“She’s hot, but really ought to keep it on the DL for me to enjoy and no one else to see because think of the children”.

What a weird little humble brag while also putting down your girlfriend and blaming her for broader society’s behavior. If she’s not lying, advocating for unhealthy habits or trends, encouraging parasocial relationships, or spreading misinformation, she’s not the problem.

My keys, which is the reason I got a cheap detector. I haven’t used it since, but have loaned it out a couple times for other people looking for their keys.

A small child nicked my keys and dropped them somewhere in a large field. A detector was cheaper than a new electronic key for my car.

There are a few DIY guides out there.

I don’t think a bathtub is the way to go. They aren’t long enough for most adults to float in. Plus they take a lot of salt, so either the bathtub is dedicated as a sensory tank or you have to drain it / refill it frequently (which gets expensive) in between using it as a normal bath.

The salty water can go down the drain though.

They’d get less plasma. Putting the non-plasma portion back in what enables people to donate/sell plasma a couple times a week versus ~monthly or less if donating whole blood.

Also, we finally have the vampire bat population under control. We can’t be feeding them that much blood, their strength will return and we’ll be right back to the dark vampiric ages.

Keeps the “wrong people” from donating 🤔?

I Saw the TV Glow. I’m glad I followed advice and didn’t read about it or watch trailers beforehand. Oof, what a gut punch of a movie.

Like the others I’ve only seen pay for blood plasma, not whole blood. Whole blood gets you a cookie, sometimes a sticker or a T-shirt, or once I got a $15 gift card but I’m pretty sure that was from the company sponsoring the charity blood drive and not the Red Cross who was collecting the blood.

And pay for plasma isn’t a lot, like $30 a donation, 1-2 donations per week. You get more working a single shift at a fast food restaurant. Plasma also takes longer to donate than whole blood because you have to sit there while the plasma is separated out and the remainder pumped back into you.

So the answer is: not rich at all.

Fair use once it’s posted on the web? Thank you very much for the framework to pirate anything and everything.

I watched clips of her on late night shows before I tried getting into any of her standup. Her standup is very dry and deadpan. I haven’t seen her TV show of the fictionalized account of her and her wife getting together, doesn’t really sound like my jam.

To me, she is the epitome of “don’t need a lot of formal education to be wicked smart”.

Woof, first dozen web search hits are about sexual misconduct. Maybe not.

I’ve been watching clips of Tig Notaro standup lately. I think her smack talk would go over Trump’s head (most does that is anything beyond anatomical or golf related, tbf) but I would enjoy her deadpan zingers.

Real answer is any seasoned politician under 60 should be able to talk circles around him. Both sounded bad last night, Trump’s only win was in comparison to Biden’s energy level.

That is not a simple question. My life is what it is because I live in America. I am not driven to move elsewhere.

But America is far from what I want it to be. Last night’s debate was a good example. I am so baffled that those two are who we have decided should have power.

Work (for work) and the public library (for personal use).

Someone spilled to me that a person I don’t particularly like is being investigated by HR for things that correlate to the reasons I don’t like them. While I’m satisfied he may finally be held accountable, I’m irritated it’s taken this long and that I have to know it us in process. Waiting for the outcome. Waiting for them to possibly decide to do nothing. I didn’t ask for this secret and I don’t want to hold it.

No problem. Pretty sure I got the idea from someone here on Lemmy. Look at that, it’s already been more useful to me than reddit.

I listened to piano music from the Suzuki method. The Suzuki thing is to treat music like a language, so immerse young kids in it when their brains are young and mushy.

Now I fall asleep to nothing most often, sometimes to a podcast or to an episode of a show I don’t really care about; something old and formulaic like Columbo.

Oh, yeah, those are crap. I went with scrub brush attachments for the battery-powered drill I already own. It cost like $20 for half a dozen heads of different sizes that chuck up like any normal drill bit. It’s not as automated, but it’s way easier and more thorough than scrubbing by hand.

Over. The end is most likely to be visible at all times.
