Been working summers up here last couple years. Highs never quite hit 70. 50s pretty frequent, sudden to 40s or high 30s at night. Though I rarely see that because the sun is still up when I tend to go to sleep. So blackout curtains are a must. Rains a lot. A lot of fishing and hunting, charter boats, cruises, excursions. All expensive if you’re not doing it yourself, which without experience your can’t or shouldn’t. Need to keep a lookout for moose while outside. I’m in a small tourist town, locals range from hippies to chuds, tourists suck but where I make my money. Lots of cars have a plug sticking out the grill to hookup a heater in winter. I can’t imagine doing winter here. Incredibly beautiful, huge mountains next to ocean, vast wilderness and wildlife, but I don’t much care for the culture here, I don’t think I’ll be back but to visit in the future. Oh, and mosquitos. I’m lucky where I am but they are a plague elsewhere. I just get hit with dead fish smells all the time. Older buildings (rare to see things more than 50 years old) are charming wood structures. New ones surprisingly boxy and seem like they’d accumulate so much snow. A lot of Trump flags.
But the B plot involved Bender returning to Mexico and reconnecting with his roots, which wasn’t bad, mainly because it didn’t depend on pop culture references. Danny Trejo was pretty good as a guest star.
(Spoiler end)
I think the reason the pop culture references seem so tired now is because our lives are filled with people making fun of pop culture on social media/the internet. All the NFT jokes have been made already, like a year ago. The writers need to stick to original, engaging plots that don’t rely on criticizing pop culture or rehashing old plotlines.
Then I just make a CNAME for each of my public facing services to point to ‘subdomain.example.com’ and use a reverse proxy to get incoming traffic to the right service.
As an Uber driver, I do everything I can to put people at ease. I end up in many deep, heartfelt conversations with my passengers. I introduce people to new music, and spread information about homeless assistance programs and other resources around the Denver area.
Uber is the platform from which I do my work as a community supporter.
I do Uber my own way, according to my vision. I am an Uber Mensch.
I’m pretty sure Fargo is actually harsher than Anchorage. It’s so coastal that it’s not as cold as you might imagine.
If you’re talking about eastern Alaska, I can answer from a Canadian perspective, because the same stuff continues across the border (for a much larger area). Most people are native, plumbing has to go over the ground, roads are sometimes limited to the cold season or even non-existant. Lots of poverty, because that shit is all expensive, and traditional hunting plays a big role in livelihoods, just with skidoos/snow machines and rifles now. The biggest communities are still small or even tiny, and if it’s above the arctic circle people might not schedule their days the same, so you’ll see kids playing soccer in the sun at 2 AM.
Yeah but going through your partners phone without consent is a breach of trust and asking to go through their phone only happens once you suspect something. I’d say texting makes cheating easier to hide but also easier to prove
Metal Gear Solid is one of my favorite games of all time, followed closely by 2 and 3. It really is an incredibly timeless piece of art in my opinion, just filled to the brim with incredible moments.
Sons of Liberty was my first experience of the MGS series and I really enjoyed it. Absolutely off the wall parody of military games in the absolute best way.
I agree with all of the other great games others have mentioned, but I really love the first level of rocket. It’s your typical platformer, except it has a physics engine, so when you throw things, they might bounce in fun ways, and there is this dune buggy that you get to drive that bounces off the sand dunes in ways that releases a lot of seratonin in my brain.
I’m a nurse. We usually recommend at least 350 calories, but ideally with a meal, but it also depends on the medication. For some, it’s to slow how quickly the medication is absorbed and/or reduce side effects, and isn’t necessary for the medication to work (e.g., stimulants, some antidepressants). For others, taking with food is necessary for the medication to be absorbed effectively so that it works (e.g., Latuda, used to treat mood and psychotic disorders).
Someone gifted me a really cool set of erlenmeyer and beaker glasses and cups. They look great, and drinking from them actually makes me physically nauseous. Even seeing other people drink from them makes me uneasy.
I could not keep this drink down no matter how tasty it is.
I mean there are dozens of us here 😆. But seriously, I know I’m not as stoked about the new seasons, it’s just not the same. It’s a bit weird seeing the resurrected corpse of one of your favorite shows stumbling around and repeating jokes it used to tell.
Fair enough. But I dont know if I’d compare it to a resurrected corpse. The gang is mostly intact, they’re still trying to make a good show, it’s just not fueled by the same fresh, youthful inspiration it once was.
