Technically Correct...
  • When my FIL what was a veterinarian was cremated, his remains were in a nice wooden box on his old antique desk. My SIL always referred to it as, "Doc in a box."

  • Farmers Insurance pulls out of Florida, affecting 100,000 homeowners
  • I read about an 1800sf home in St Pete, not on a flood plane, yesterday... $8000+/year for homeowners insurance. šŸ˜³

    Make America Florida, Rhonda Santis? I think fucking not....

  • "Not logged in" error while logged in
  • Getting the same issue here. Seems sporadic.

  • Threads gained 10 million new users in seven hours
  • Zuck claims it's up to 30 million now

  • This was the last post I saw before closing RIF last night, and signing off Reddit for good.

    RIF still works today for some weird reason, but I'm not logging in. I wanted this adorable scrungy cat to be my last memory of Reddit.

    My dad Postie (Left) - with his brother Timmy in the early 80's. Straight up pimping. Raised me, a white son as his own from the day I was born. My mom said "I don't know who the dad is", and he replied "he's my boy now". Absolute Legend!

    (Mildly NSFW) Welp, I guess that's it. The single photo that got my ~10-year-old, 60k+ karma Reddit account "permanently suspended."
  • They permanently banned my 9yo account with 2 million karma for using the "boxes of Liberty" metaphor in a highly up voted comment about Republicans taking away access to voting. They said it was a threat of violence. šŸ™„ Meanwhile fascists make literal death threats in conservative subs with no consequences.

    The site has systematically been banning high volume contributors who aren't right wing enough for at least the last 3 months. They, like Twitter, are trying to suppress the voices of people who are against fascism. It is deliberate and planned.

  • CHALLENGE: What is this thing? [SOLVED]
  • That's roughly the speed at which these sorts of things would get identified on That Other Siteā„¢ļø, so that's a good sign!

  • YSK how to deal with questions about gaps in your employment.
  • This is great advice, coming from someone who pondered using the "Mother was really sick and had to manage her illness and passing" excuse if I ever went back, as it was true for me too. (I'm sorry for your loss, it's a really painful life transition, I know.)

    I ended up taking a slightly different approach. I worked in IT project management before I retired early. My LinkedIn resume shows me currently employed as an "IT consultant" and will until I decide I need another job or I kick it.

  • Iā€™m on day 3 of bad DOMS, can I work out today
  • It's "safe" to work out but you'll want to make sure you aren't compromising your form any due to being sore.

    I'd suggest making today a lighter weight workout or just focusing on cardio. Getting your muscles moving will increase the blood flow, which will help speed up getting things back to normal.

    Are cat illustrations allowed here? I'll delete if they're not.
