I was thinking if it’s just a ballot that has a number but it’s not attached to your name. I.e. if the person handing out the ballots gives you a random one and you’re the only one who knows your own number. I’ve never used electric voting machines but maybe a randomly generated number that you can know but nobody else would know?

I know I don’t clean it often enough but I also don’t think that dust should happen after like two days of a deep clean

I’m getting sick of the people on this app being 50yr racist and self centered manager/ceo… that I have to contact :)

Boy do I have some bad news about the workforce for you…

In all seriousness, I’m not sure about your field specifically but most companies will have a ‘career’ section on their website. You can usually browse jobs/apply through there.

There are also job opportunity aggregators like Indeed, Monster (is monster still a thing?), probably other alternatives in your country.

Your school/teachers might also be able to help you network and get in contact with companies, especially if you make a good impression.

Good luck!

Yeah, thanks, it sounds like you’re right since people using other brands don’t seem to have this issue. My partner is extremely particular about this brand of TP though so I guess I’m just gonna have to live with it.

I have a bidet with toilet paper to dry off/for guests/for various other uses for toilet paper.

Not near a window and the dust is thicker and primarily builds up below the toilet paper roll and on the holder. It’s not the same as regular dust build up. I mitigate by placing the bin under the roll but it still gets everywhere.

It’s hard to get a picture but this is the thicker dust on my toilet brush, which sits just next to the bin/toilet.

You can’t just leave your ass moist, why aren’t y’all using TP to dry off???

I think the majority of people who spend most of their days bringing joy (comedians) tend to have dark background. Doesn’t surprise me that clowns would equally have some awful shit that pushed them to see the bright side of life more clearly.

Mom, mamá or viejita (old lady) when I’m feeling brave. Sometimes when I’m feeling extra brave (and playful), I use her childhood nickname that she hates because it’s funny.

Someone just set off a bomb in front of a politicians office in my province. Not confirmed but fairly certain that was a protest.

Pride turned more into a celebration rather than a protest in recent years with the capitalization of it, but due to recent regression I can imagine it going back to more intense protests in some towns at least now.

Depends where you live but most of the time the government does try to keep even controversial protests pretty light with the excuse of keeping people safe, but there’s always more extreme action that people take, it maybe just doesn’t get shown as a “protest” per se.

Is there any chance that the judges can “buy” their survey responses? E.g. if they pay off the people taking the survey? Or is it all totally anonymous?

(I’m not American, just curious)

I’m not sure where you live, so you may approach it differently.

I’ve been donating for probably 15 years to various charities via regular donations to registered charities. I usually check donation websites to ensure that the charities I’ve picked are spending my money in a way I deem appropriate. This will depend on your country but I use charityintelligence.ca in Canada. Registered charities in Canada are great for donations, because you can claim them in your taxes and get back a significant amount of money on your tax refund. For example, I donate about $1000/year this way and including my donations on my taxes usually increases my tax refund by about $600-700, or at the very least it takes my taxes from owing to even. I can feel more comfortable about spending money on a good cause rather than having to pay money in taxes at the end of the year.

Additionally, I donate to more local causes occasionally (like your artist here) and to artists I enjoy. This doesn’t come with any tax refund usually, but sometimes artists will provide perks for it and at the very least I just know I am supporting someone I enjoy to continue creating things I enjoy.

I know you weren’t fully asking about this, but there are also non-monetary ways to donate that are excellent choices if you find yourself in a more difficult financial situation. You can donate your time (volunteer) as little as a couple of hours per month at local nonprofits/charities/whatever you want to support. You can donate blood or plasma. These are all nice ways to meet people and contribute to big changes in your community.

Good luck on your journey if you decide to continue donating! Don’t feel discouraged, even if others aren’t as generous as you, you’re still making a change in someone’s life.

This is really cool, thank you. I’ve noticed things like this anecdotally but it’s interesting to see there are actual studies.

Don’t even know if I’d call that transracial, that’s just a person who is of one ethnicity but was raised in a different culture than one might expect for someone who looks like them. There’s no “transitioning” happening there.

I know you’re in the US so it’s probably a lot more difficult, but find union activists…

Unions fight for these exact rights, and the reason most developed countries have vacations and healthcare are thanks to union action. Of course, America has fought very hard to keep these down.

Also, no need to shoot others down while you’re at it. No one is free until we’re all free, and this has always been a class war.

If that was the goal then maybe they should’ve worked harder so that their algo didn’t spit out cheap poorly made garbage with a million fake reviews every time I try to search anything remotely purchasable.

I know you’re right, but I actually think this one is an evolutionary benefit, just not ours. The cuteness traits won the evolutionary race because cuteness causes this feeling in humans that will make them more likely to get taken in by us.

(I don’t know shit about science, I just think pets have their shit figured out)

Lol yeah sorry I should’ve said drag queen competitions. What you described happens to me all the time in reverse when people talk about car drag racing. I watch too much RuPaul.

Circus comparison is good but I prefer drag race. It’s a bunch of (generally) men in costumes and make up performing very well-practiced routines for the sole purpose of entertainment, with one rigged winner at the end.

Maybe wrestling fans wouldn’t like that comparison as much.

Bless project managers. The ones I’ve seen in IT seem generally better off because programmers and engineers seem to be better at getting their work done, but outside of IT, it’s like herding cats trying to get people to do their shit. I do not understand how any of you can do it full time.

I’ve done my fair share of project coordination and have had people tell me I should go into project management officially but quite frankly I’d rather chew glass. Y’all are saints.

Everyone should be required to take Plain Language writing courses.

There’s a lot of factors at play as to why more people prefer it now, but who cares really. Writing in plain language makes it accessible for everyone and doesn’t hurt anyone.
