1·1 year agoYep, he’s got three more in the series.
Abhorsen series by Garth Nix.
They sold it at my uni, sales went to the surgeon research department.
Treadful Regional Hospital
After taking care of myself, friends and family, and what not I would start acquiring land that I would donate to my community for affordable housing and other community projects with the condition that I get to name everything built on it. All streets, schools, libraries, etc will be named by me.
Yeah, no, to save space they didn’t come on pallets, we would have to load them onto pallets and get them off the truck. Not sure who had the worse job, me or the Chinese guy on the other end losing the truck.
I used to work with this old guy named Mel in my early twenties at a graveyard job in a cold storage warehouse doing freight handling. He would bike to work 20 km down a dark highway to get to our shift at 1 am, he owned a car just preferred to bike, which I respect. This guy was in his 70s, consumed nothing but a cheese sandwich for lunch, coffee, and smoked heavily. Despite this he was in seemingly great shape and was fastest, hardest worker in the whole place. At Christmas time we would unload 20 lbs boxes of mandarin oranges from 53 foot trailers packed top to bottom, front to back onto pallets, this guy would go faster by himself than two people. He always said it’s just about the technique and how you position your body.
I knew him in my early twenties before going back to school and he was the only person at that job with a brain so we talked a lot about space and technology and all that. I moved away for school so it’s been like 13 years since I last saw him so I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s dead given his age and how much he smoked but I always wondered what happened to him and if he’s still kicking around. I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if this guy made it to 100.
Maybe look into GIS work and try to get on with a municipality or regional government. Not sure how it is in the US but in Canada there are plenty of GIS jobs open all over the country, it’s easy enough work if you have a good understanding of (I think) Python. Plus maps are fun, at least I think they are.
Just to add to this, if you’re interested the main program I see being used is ArcGIS. QGIS is another program that’s similar but free and open source and good to practice on to get the basics of spatial mapping down, but there are some things that are different between the two that is not a 1:1 transfer of skills.
Thanks for doxxing me, now I gotta delete me account.
I have the same last name as a famous video game character and my girlfriends first name is one letter off from said character. I realized it on our second date but never mentioned it as I thought it would be weird. She figured it out a couple months in and said she didn’t mind as it would be easier than telling people her current last name.
Just don’t forget to carry the one.
Ok yeah fair, I forgot about the whole NFT thing. They are a greedy ass company that’s for sure; Kingdom Hearts had been rerererereleased how many times now?
Nintendo does some pretty brain dead things for a Japanese gaming company.
I got my complaints about SE but are they really in the same category as EA or Blizzard? I haven’t played XIV since 2.5 but my understanding is it’s still doing well and I’ve heard good things about XVI, although I can’t play until pc release so I’m avoiding all media about it.
I got no issue with 196, I’m just already subbed and looking for others.
Original content and dank memes.
I haven’t explored communities much lately, what are some good dank meme communities that aren’t 196?
I guess they could be called magnetic clip ons. I have terrible vision myself (-6.5) and require thicker lens (which zenni doesn’t actually accommodate I had to buy from elsewhere) and I never found the added weight to be an issue. As far at price, I only paid 150 cdn for the glasses which is one of the cheaper pairs I’ve owned.
Personally I hate having to carry around two pairs of glasses, it’s annoying af but if that’s what you prefer, you do you.
RUFIOOOOOO
Didn’t realize people didn’t like it.
Yeah that’s fair, I personally love it especially back cracks.
