Neat! I found that after some time playing the guitar I was able to fundamentally understand how a violin works. They’re very similar instruments, in many ways (especially if you are playing pizzicato on the violin.)
I’m still no good at… either one of them really, but I find that every time I even spend a month messing around with an instrument I gain a deeper understanding of how they all work, and music in general.
npr black maternity crisis I would put this just on Memphis. It’s an issue effect black ppl across the US. For various reasons, but mainly the staff being overworked and dismissive. Nothing intentional to point
This case is very similar to that of James Dresnok - a low-level soldier who had disciplinary and/or life issues sees North Korean as a way to avoid any consequences or punishments for their actions.
It’s likely that his life will play out the same way. He’ll be interrogated by North Korea (but he won’t know much as a footsoldier), then used in propaganda efforts, and work as an actor or English teacher. He’ll be treated better than the average North Korean, which means he’ll get a mediocre but passable life.
The people who made this decision when they talk about vaccines: “My body, my choice, you can’t tell me what to do!”
Same people, when they talk about masking, abortion or anything else: “Your body, my choice, I can and will tell you what to do!”
My skull would probably crack from the cognitive dissonance if I tried holding these two opinions, but it seems some people have no issues with it at all…
Me in summer through winter of 2020: “Well, silver lining about COVID is that we all learned how to wear masks once this all blows over.”
Conservative family: “Agree!”
Me during the unending apocalypse in summer 2023: “We should wear masks with the air quality so poor [unsaid: due to the now present and undeniable human-caused climate change.”
Exact same conservative family: “That sounds like socialism and fascism to me”
For real. One of the most disappointing experiences of my life was the first time I tried In N Out. I took a couple bites, sat back, and just thought, “That’s it? That’s what everyone thinks is a great burger? What the fuck is wrong with everyone?”
I'm not terribly surprised, given as they print bible verses on their packaging. Sad to see another relatively decent Christian business go down the alt-right rabbit hole, but their burgers aren't good enough for me to risk the plague because they can't follow basic safety guidelines.
It's messed up. Imagine the memo said, that in-n-out bans hairnets, gloves and washing hands unless the offender has a medical note.
I don't argue for mandating it, as it is very hot in the kitchen, and mask would make it even worse experience, but pandemic or not this makes sense when working on food, it makes it more sanitary, and if employees wants to wear masks all power to them, they should not be penalized.
