Do Lizardfolk have tiddies?

Working as a graphic designer in the US since the early 2000's, every employer I ever worked for eventually used Fiverr to pay someone overseas a fraction of what they paid me to do the same work. This doesn't seem meaningfully different.

Not saying this is okay, just that it's not even remotely (no pun intended) a new problem.

Hopefully this works for you, too -- The original article on Financial Times contains a little more info than the Daily Beast version.

You can say that again. Growing up in Florida, I've been in a lot of swimming pools and water parks, and I have never seen anything like what is shown in the video attached to this article. That opening is huge. user224's link says the pipe is 30cm (almost a foot) in diameter. Even in giant public pools I've been in, I can't recall seeing an opening or fixture that size. That, coupled with a lack of any cover on it, seems so obviously dangerous. God, what an awful way to go.

Thanks for posting this. I've lived in Florida my whole life, and voted blue-no-matter-who in every election since I was eligible to vote, as do all my friends and family. I try to help others within my sphere of influence to make good political choices, too, and those conversations can be hard. My area has been particularly red for as long as I can remember, and that has only gotten more true in recent years. It often sucks to live here but I am stuck for the foreseeable future, and so I am putting forth the effort to change what I am able.

As such, I have always found it a bit discouraging that so many seem to think that Florida is some hive-mind phenomenon, wherein every eligible person votes against their own best interests in perfect unison. I mean, a lot of them do, obviously -- but the lack of empathy for the rest of us, that's the weird part to me.

Also, this got me curious and I looked up how the voter base skews along party lines, the numbers are way closer than I would have guessed.

Just another Monday for me by now... Have had to put so many once-beloved channels out to pasture. I really love YouTube for what it was (and still mostly is), making entertainment content something more personal than traditional TV... but it's changing. And change isn't inherently bad.

I will say that I'm having a harder time nowadays finding new content on YT that measures up. Just started a trial for Curiosity Stream today, and there are other platforms, too.

You're trying, and that's more than anyone could have asked for. To love is to mourn. It's hard to open up a part of yourself, knowing it could hurt you later, but you're doing it, and no matter what happens, you've made a difference. Good luck.

It's an ad for redballoon[dot]work, who describe themselves as "America’s #1 woke-free job board & talent connector."

YouTube suggested this same video to me the other day and my partner and I were both completely distracted by the ad. Googling the first phrase I could pick out gave me plenty of results for other discussions. Almost feels like a PsyOp, lol.

Dunno if this helps you at all, but I've been using BitWarden to manage my passwords since I made the switch from Chrome to Firefox (both on PC and my Android phone). It doesn't fill passwords automatically in either case, but it's not much extra work to invoke BitWarden to fill those fields as-needed on either device, and it works very consistently. It's also (I'm told) much more secure. Just thought I'd share that here!

I loved that show growing up.

Really? It made me- WANNA FART

It always irked me when people used "45" as a moniker for Trump before, but now it feels... apt.

One study showed that at least 72% of remote workers in the area did in fact own a "nasty cat blanket."
