Recovering academic now in public safety. You’ll find me kibitzing on brains (my academic expertise) to critical infrastructure and resilience (current worklife). Also hockey, games, music just because.

3·16 hours agoIt’s just the way it was. When you see us old guys in the gym and we have no body shame it’s because that’s the way we were raised. We had open locker rooms and showered together. The hockey arena I went to had a horse trough for a urinal with a splash guard a out chest high running down the middle. You just didn’t piss standing next to other dudes, you were looking another guy straight in the eye as you did it. 😆

I posted this link months ago and it never found traction. It’s unpleasant to hear, but that boomer advice is how small business actually hires.
Big corporate uses AI tools and job boards. Small business want to look you in the eye and decide if they want to hang with you for 40 hours of every week of their lives.

I know several people who did that - trucks, boats, campers were all worth more used during COVID than they were worth new just a year or two before. You may recall there was a massive chip shortage during COVID and new vehicle production was greatly impacted.

Again I could be wrong but I thought that the WD stood for water dispersant which was the original application ( and still very good for that). The all purpose lubricant is not actually a great use for it. Spray silicone like Jig-a-loo is much better.

Television and Film@adultswim.fan•"Snakes On A Plane" was Hollywood's first time misreading social media. The film's spectacular failure to launch still taught Hollywood nothing about the internet.English
1·4 days agoI read the entire article and it didn’t mention Jeffery Rowland and the campaign for “get these motherfuck’n snakes off this motherfuck’n plane” added to the film. Christ they invited the guy to the premiere. Just a generic nod to Something Awful and Ebaum’s World. It’s funny how focused it was on the Hollywood side and not the meme side of things.

12·4 days agoDetoxing someone from end stage alcoholism is incredibly dangerous. In comparison detoxing from heroin is not great for the user, but there’s no risk of death. It feels like a really bad flu for 72 hours and a mild flu for another 72.

I thought that WD-40 was a purposeful development process. It was the 40th formulation that made it to market.

51·4 days agoMy first job in healthcare was in a veterans hospital. There were so many alcohol dependent residents that there was a pub in the basement to dispense the “medicine” and not stigmatize the residents. There was beer on the med carts for those with limited mobility.

















Yes and probably not. And hell no for the third question you didn’t ask.
