Do you often run out of gas in your car? Does your phone often run out of battery?

If you’re a functioning adult who can answer “no” to those questions, then you do not need to worry about range anxiety.

In my car, I can also look at the navigation system which has a nice big circle showing how far I can go. You see the dark area outside the circle? You must never go there, Simba.

I’ve been driving an EV for 6 years.

• I have never run out of electricity.
• It hasn’t caught fire.
• I do not miss switching to 2. gear.
• I do not miss the noise.
• My penis size has not changed.
• I do enjoy the lower cost.
• I am mildy and smugly annoyed by the doll head nodders in ice cars who can’t get an even acceleration when starting at the green light.
• I do not miss standing in the cold at the gas station holding a nozzle for minutes to empty my wallet.
• Charging time has never been an issue as it happens by itself when I don’t use the car.
• Range has never been an issue as I hate driving to other countries in non stop trips anyway.

Is there anything else you would like to know about driving EVs?

Well, an issue could be that it’s not a sweater, so if she wanted a sweater, she might be disappointed to find out that she came home with a poncho instead.

I keep a professional distance to all my co-workers regardless of age, gender, title or experience.

I don’t even know which is worse; working with people you like or people you don’t. Both have their challenges in time.

I’d definitely stay clear of any clique mentallity. Best to stay assertive with those sorts of people.

Or in sports terms. Don’t get dragged into their drama. They can keep that shit game on their side of the court. You focus on the ball.

Have you tried playing the guitar badly?

Come on. Virgin pregnancy, yeah right. Her husband not even knowing and the 3 wise men coming to see the child, sure thing.

Jesus wouldn’t be alive for long if born today. He would have been thrown into Lake Michigan shortly after birth.

uh, but then those mods and admins wouldn’t be able to mod all the users on the list, right? Cause they wouldn’t even load the posts?

All the users who are allegedly the worst scum of the fediverse were made unmoddable by the list that’s supposed to protect the normies from seeing those users?

I day dream until I fall asleep, and it takes less than a minute. Doesn’t matter if I just had a coffee, browsing a phone or whatever.

I like to think about designing something. What I’d do on a isolated island, designing the cockpit in a space craft or building a self sufficient homestead. Fiction stuff. Everything is possible. It doesn’t work if I think about actual real life problems.

It sounds like your former boss requested you to do a violation of OSHA guidelines.

If it’s in Europe it’s very likely downright illegal.

It’d also be an unjust dismissal and a breach of the termination period, so you could have filed a lawsuit to get compensated.

The most important thing is that you got away from it, but if something like this ever happens again, I would recommend that you contact the union before saying OK to anything. It’s usually better to let the employer fire you for not showing up than to walk away and let them continue to do it to other people. They never learn - until they have to pay for it.

Motörhead - Heroes

Original by David Bowie 1977.

motörhead recorded the cover version while recording their last album in 2015.

Generally I would say I like the music of Bowie better than motörhead, but in this case, their cover of his song is better than the original.

The biscuit game. I don’t know anyone who will admit to having done it, but everyone knows someone who allegedly has a cousin who did.

Rules are simple: It’s a circle jerk with a biscuit in the center. The one who missed the biscuit eats it.

I think walking is on the right track. If you feel mental fatigue from playing music (or other hobby), you will need to recharge and get new inspiration.

Physical activity is the best way to let the mind recharge.

Personally I currently have a lot of wood to chop, and so I do that hard manual labor just to disconnect the mind. People keep asking me if I want to borrow their electric wood chopper. I have turned down 5 people by now, and my in-law even delivered one without asking - insisting to help out. Obviously I don’t use it, because that’s not the point at all. If I wanted chopped wood I could simply buy it. I want to chop wood, because it’s a way for me to mentally zone out.

Anyway, you can spice up your walks by bringing a sketch pad and draw something. Perhaps that’ll keep your mind more focused on observing the sorroundings and giving a purpose to the walking.

I don’t really trust the observations of someone named Cockburn on the topics of lust and love.

Garden gnomes?

Some of us live in places that have free cards.

I want to mutilate the genitalia of elderly people. Is that okay with you?

I think I do. I’ve been managing properties for some 20 years. Mostly commercial.

What I’m saying is that in order to understand why the landlord doesn’t just cash in on 50 years of rent, you first need to understand the difference between the profit/loss and assets/liabilities sections in a financial statement.

The tenants (income) are not paying for the building (asset). They only need to cover the interest (cost) from the loan (liability) in order for the the landlord to make money (profit).

The only time it makes sense to compare the rental income to the value of the asset is for the annual asset evaluation.

If the landlord waves the evaluation and rent around like OP says, it just shows that the landlord doesn’t understand it either and is just throwing numbers into the air to impress people.

I know what they meant.

Renting out properties is not about making tenants pay the same amount as the property is worth over any period of time.

It’s about having someone else cover the cost of borrowing the money while the property increases in value by itself until they decide to cash in.
