You still gotta deal with the most absolutely bored co-workers who are so disillusioned they create petty drama to fill their days. The 60 year old lady with a mullet who has been working the job outta high school is going to set an absolutely unmatchable pace for zero reason other than to give their ego a pat on the back, and not give two shits for the problems that pace might create when the shit they send down the line starts to inevitably back up.
All while doing absolutely back breaking and fatigue inducing actions for long periods while operating machinery that will dismember you before you even notice something is wrong. Your mind is so bored by the repetitive tasks it erodes at caution though, so good luck not messing up.

I’ve done both, and I’d say food service is generally worse. Neither are as bad as being on an assembly line, I can tell you that much.

Just the fact that he added Lina Khan to his team says so much about him.
In a just world Khan would be a prominent political figure on her own, but she’ll do good things in this position.

Can we talk about Bigfoot, I’ve been dying to talk about Bigfoot
Bigfoot is one I lean more to it existing. There’s a lot of circus around the people looking for it, yes. But I’ve seen/heard enough accounts of interactions that do I believe there’s some common denominator it all.
Is there a smoking gun? No, but I do think the wilderness is wilder than we think. Like whatever is absolutely booking it along this cliff.
Then this one, definitely just a dude in a suit… doing a masterclass in practical effects? I don’t know. That’s not a small tree.
I think there’s a better chance of something big, smart, and strong bipedal in the woods than the WH for sure.

Sheesh.
The japanese knotweed is at least edible, and from what I understand quite good.

I believe it. Cold really changes things. Not only are you just burning more calories to stay warm, but I swear the cold fundamentally alters your metabolism when you’re regularly exposed.

Not very, but once you start getting them you can become more prone. Swelling from infection can alter your ear canal to making it more likely to trap water.
Some might tell you earplugs as a preventative, but they can cause problems of their own, especially if you take them out and put them back in during a session. Or if they get dirty.
Swim caps will keep most of the water from your ears, and if you’ve longer hair I’d suggest a cap regardless.
Really you should be fine so long as you’re not sleeping with water in your ear. Especially if you’re in a pool and not open water. They weren’t common when I was swimming.

Not gonna debate that. Had one andanytime I had water touch it, it felt like a screwdriver was being jammed into my ear.

I mean name a stock driven more divorced from reason and driven by greed than TSLA right now. Dude literally has more to lose than anyone.

My vision is still fucked up from when my eyes rolled to the back of my head from hearing my Grok attached overweight uncle say we’re all going to live to 120.
My tin foil hat theory is it’s to push these boomers and X’ers further into stock market greed because they’re now scrambling to secure retirement savings for a few decades they hadn’t planned for.

So you hung out in the woods, ate ramps, and earned bikes in some sort of make out competition?
Not judging, but I think this might be a somewhat singular upbringing you experienced.

Fixed 35, but with the larger sensor it’ll behave more like a 40mm full frame.
I brought the RF up just because of its size. Those other GFX cameras are absolute units once they have a lens on.

I’ve got an X-Pro1, I can relate.
That thing has taken some of my favorite photos though, I just wish it were faster.

Christ fujifilm, we just want an xPro-4 with 50 megapixels and IBIS. That’s it.
