Is this a Varric reference? “How about a giant sign that just says ‘Don’t’, [you could hit people with it.”]

By simply having all PC games mod able and with accessible console commands, most issues will eventually have workarounds.

That is atypical.

Now if you become one with a chair for most of the day, expect it in your 40s. And expect an active 80+ year old to physically kick your ass by the time you hit 60.

But 30s? That’s an outlier.

I assumed this was a nursing sub until I looked closer. Hospital management only does horrid shit like this for staff.

These “rewards” are awful. My condolences.

If you’re lucky though, maybe you’ll get a small rock with a “You Rock!” printout next time.

Not stand up. David Sedaris, his life essays, not the short stories.

The Ship Shape, amiright?

This is a leadership problem. The problem really does need to be solved at the top.

The reality is most working class cannot just stop, unless handed a practical alternative because stopping would mean not going to work, not earning income, and being rendered homeless. Likely living in their car first which would put oil consumption right back in play.

Whatever alternative you’re thinking of that the working class might be able to achieve as an individual probably has a buy-in cost. Given the even greater number of folks living paycheck to paycheck in the last two years, that buy-in isn’t a plausible ask.

Sucks. But here we are. Find a cost free (to the working class individual) solution that doesn’t interrupt the 5-6 day/wk work schedule or require any extra costs or moving and you’ll solve it. Until then, working class folks are going to do what they must to keep the lights on and the water running, and that’s usually going to be commuting to work in a gas consuming vehicle. As such, the solution needs to come from the top, not the bottom.

Earnest question. Is there enough lithium on the planet to turn around every vehicle in the United States to electric? Assume infrastructure for charging. Even then, do we even have the lithium, cobalt, manganese, nickel, and graphite or whatever else electric vehicle batteries need for it?

I’ll never argue in favor of glitter, but if we’re discussing micro plastics there’s this:

All the synthetic shit cloth you wear and/or sleep on has impact.

Likely to make more impact on this microplastic by buying cotton or bamboo than trying to ban glitter.

If you live remote, say, an hour or more from real shopping and such it’s the way to get fast delivery on anything, though Walmart does ok with this, though their “fast” is fairly unreliable. (Great for front door delivery of kitty litter, dog food, etc)

But no, most people don’t need it because most people don’t live remote.

As a career night shifter I’m having great difficulty understanding this.

I feel like gollum when forced to face the sun.
