Long time ago I regularly shared an after work bus stop with a young woman who made the most astounding series of facial contortions, every day

I concluded she was a retail worker uncramping her face muscles after a long shift wearing a mandatory smile
when I ran the McDonald’s drive-thru as a teenager, a general manager told me I should have the food ready by the time the car pulled up to the second window - and be holding it out, smiling as they approached; my regular manager told us to ignore her, because nobody should do that for $4.15/hr
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.

They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.

If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."

🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.

I always come back to how insulting the idea is that I need a plagiarism chatbot to help me “organize my thoughts” and “come up with ideas,” something I am perfectly capable of doing myself and never asked for any help with

As a child of the Golden State I am stunned to feel a desire to live in the Big Apple

Great election, y'all

tem um negócio que aluga um triplex na minha cabeça: depois que o Alzheimer da minha avó avançou, a hipertensão dela acabou. pressão normal, normal. o médico explicou que acontece muito, porque a pessoa realmente para de se preocupar, acaba o stress.

essa vida acelerada adoece a gente é muito.

Dr. Jane Tiptree, in Carnosaur, was the best, most charismatic, mad scientist in all the movies.

I can believe in her and much of her ranting is correct

My favorite meditation practice is pulling weeds
Sitting on the ground, removing garden invaders

There's a spot in my front yard that when I am down at dirt level I smell, faintly, the aroma of rotting meat, seems to come out of the soil

Gophers, deceased in their burrow?
