I learned a lot about donestication from this video. I knew domestication was basically eugenic, but I didn’t realize it could happen in so few generations.
Have you seen those Bluetooth things that plug into the cigarette lighter? You can hook your phone up to older stereos with them. Pretty awesome and made my old truck better.
Donald Trump flirted with the idea of being president for three terms – a clear violation of the US constitution – during a bombastic speech for the National Rifle Association in which he vowed to reverse gun safety measures green-lighted during the Biden administration....
My company, which is pretty generous (by US standards) gives us 8 paid sick days per year. Up until this year we got unlimited after that with a doctors note (unpaid, bit you wouldn’t get fired for it.) This year they stopped accepting doctor notes, so if you rub out of sick time, tough shit. BUT if you’re out for over a week, FMLA or disability or some shit like that kicks in, and there ain’t fuck all they can do about it lol. And THAT shit is paid. I have a feeling they’re gonna rethink the doctors note thing next year lol.
