    *severe thunderstorm warning for your country*

    Hrm maybe I shouldn’t go swinging around a metal pole on my top floor deck

    The whole country?? Severe thunderstorms across the entire US?

    Global warming really is getting out of hand...

    I just checked and, weirdly, there are dots of severe thunderstorms covering basically the entire country from the mississippi east.

    An entire half of the US, yes

    Isn't the Mississippi more of 1/3 cut?

    apparently if your princess diana beanie baby has polyvinyl chloride beads it's good and worth thousands of dollars but if it contains polyethylene beads then it's trash sell it for a dollar and hope you even get that

    this has been your beanie baby collectible fact of the day

    Me, Today: "I am going to relax and ease into my first day of training in my new role."
    My Manager, also today: "Hey, I heard you were good with spreadsheets. Do you want to help with budgeting on the side a few times a month? You'll need to get some other training we'll squeeze in."
    A random staffing process that has been radio silent for FIVE MONTHS, also also today: "Hey, we have emerged from our hibernation to let you know you passed the initial screening and now need to write a test in the middle of your training."

    I have all four of those sleeved somewhere at my parents house.

    My assumption is that they're worth less than $1

    Just had an old friend from high school reach out and tell me she was supportive of my transition and felt sorry for the way my family had treated me

    I hadn’t ever said anything to her about my parents 😳


    That means my family being shitty is . . . communally-known! The stain! It finally found them! The schadenfreude!

    This morning I managed to work out for a third time in a row. Also went walking for a 3 day in a row. I don't know how long this will last, but I'm going to pretend I'm serious about it this time.

    If you meet the Buddha a beanie baby on the road, kill it. It can do nothing to enlighten you, and you would only serve to corrupt it.

    This presentation has climbed from 15 to 25.

    I do not agree with the approach to presentations that they take at this level tbh

    Amusingly, if you manage to disembowel enough, they might finally be worth something again...

    If you sold them a decade ago and had a full collection in mint condition? 10-20k

    No idea if those prices have held up (and I very much doubt they have)

    I don’t understand how it’s possible to be waiting in line at dmv for three hours. I waited for two hours to see the faberge egg collection when it was here and even that was not worth it.

    How can the lines at dmv be a meme already in the ninetees if not before, and it’s not changed since?

    Got the most frustrating good news at work today. For the last couple months there has been a problem tangentially related to my work that has been a real pain (having to do with azure devops management). It's not something I know deeply at all. The two people on my team with more experience in that area have been saying all along that the obvious solution isn't possible. It would cause bad side effects for several other teams also using the system. So I have been coming up with more and more convoluted work arounds. Friday I finally ended up sending a message to the person who is the owner of that system asking if there was any way we could convince all the teams to go along with the obvious solution despite it being a pain for them. And today he replies that we should totally be able to do obvious solution without affecting other teams at all.
