Health care workers: we ride at dawn bitches!

A guy came into the clinic I work in wearing a spray paint respirator mask with a beekeeper’s veil overtop, and with dishwashing gloves that he had pulled ordinary latex gloves over. It was wild.

I was considered an essential worker, and so I toddled off to work every day as usual. I remember while my spouse was driving me in how eerie it seemed with how quiet the city was, and seeing 68 cents per liter gasoline prices was such a shock. The quiet was what really got to me.

My friend had brain surgery for an aneurysm, and every so often she fumbles a word as a result. One day she wanted to say the word lumberjacks, but her brain came up with logfarmers instead.

To be fair most of my managers would agree with calling him that, but we’re not American.

Not perfect, but it’s so nice just to really be yourself at work because you don’t have to impress your manager.

I love being a union member. Every few years they just negotiate me a better wage. If my manager acts like an asshole I bring my rep to a meeting. My manager tried some shit with me a couple of years ago, so I just filed a workload report and she had to meekly explain herself to my rep and why it wouldn’t happen again and what plan she would put in place to ensure it didn’t. It’s so nice to have enforceable rights.

I’ve officially reached a stage of middle age where my spouse and I stopped sharing a bed. I do sleep with my dog though, who is very snuggly.

Oh gosh I didn’t even know that.

Understood. The TV show was totally hilarious.

I was talking about them in this thread because I’m also a fan, and I don’t believe a word that Tokkie said. I think they’re not great people but I think that’s all horseshit.

I like him even though I’m not into pop, he’s like the only pop star l listen to.

Oh wow.

I love that you have CDs though.

Ha he is crusty.

Those books are wild.

Grunge is so dull. I am all for generations developing their own style of music without question but I can’t believe we turned away from 80s music to THAT. I thought Nirvana was mediocre as can be. Love Mechanical Animals, but like all of his albums to some degree. I’m glad he’s gotten back on his feet in life and got sober and lost the weight.

Die Antwoord, what Tokkie is saying just sounds so outlandishly fake. I don’t think they’re great people but I actually think they care a lot about their kids.

I did focus groups and surveys for money. I often would just stock up on toiletries from Amazon when I had gift cards. That shit is expensive so it lets my grocery budget breathe.

I do too. I pretty much hated all music made in the 90s; I think grunge is awful and so is NIN, but I felt like Manson was a natural extension of what bands like WASP and Motley Crue were doing but reinvented for that generation, and it’s really good. I like music that has some concept and theater to it. I still listen to him.

I also like Die Antwoord; I think the accusations by their adopted son are total bullshit. I’m not saying they’re good people and I do think they’re homophobic, but also a lot of their image is obviously artificial and they obfuscate their true lives, it’s clear from reading their interviews. I think they’re genuinely average middle aged parents from South Africa, and I think what Ninja said about their son making accusations was to try to get money from them is true. I really dig their crazy music and their videos are insane.

I remember the Vanity Fair article about Cruise where he was having a tantrum at a dinner somewhere and saying “even my own sister can’t get me a girlfriend”. The article goes on to say that Scientology procured him a girlfriend but later on basically fired her. I don’t think he understands human relationships.
