Oh and I found out the high school seasonal part timer who is in her last week (well next week is her last week) got 35 hours. I have no idea how that happened but me and most full time people got 29-31 hours. I mentioned it to , actually the covid coworker who is really nice and a team leader--just in passing but they both thought that was bullshit. Maybe she doesn't really have 35 hours but it is fucking bullshit that a teenager seasonal worker gets more hours than most of the full time people.
I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I had a big fat lazy day. Watched movies/tv and painted nails and just had a delivery made to the parents.

Happy birthday, Jesse!
I am glad to read that so many of you are resting this holiday. Especially in this year, rest is very important.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Shows 95% efficacy & is “100% effective” in preventing severe illness, says AZ CEO."

Does anybody here have a SodaStream device? Do you use it a lot and would recommend it? R, the roommate, expressed a desire not to be schlepping huge bottles of soda around (she mostly drinks flavored seltzer anyway), and it would make a decent late Xmas gift, I think, but I know not much of the carbonated world.

Love my SodaStream! Excellent gift.

Sometimes, yeah

I loved mine and used it all the time. I don't drink much carbonated stuff anymore, but, yeah, if bubbly water is her thing, it's a great gift.
Trudy, I said the same thing to my DP. It was uncanny during a few parts of WW. The delivery was eerily similar sometimes.

The one thing that has kept me from getting a soda stream is that I like seltzer that has flavor without adding calories or artificial sweetener, and I don't know how I would recreate that on my own.

I love my SodaStream. And it's held up for 13 years so far.

Like fruit flavors? SodaStream has those, with no sugar and no artificial sweetener: [link]
