At one point around here they were doing an on-demand bus thing that took you from wherever to a nearby bus stop/light rail/transit center. A last-mile attempt of solution.

I have seen signs for that here but I haven't tried it, don't know how it actually works. Not a bus or shuttle in our case, it's some kind of deal with Lyft?

Blacksmith class does sound like something that might be contraindicated while recovering from carpal tunnel surgery, yes. Glad your scheduling works out!

dcp I passed on the word. My aunt said my uncle's step son got the same/similar diagnosis a year ago and has offered his advice and support.

I'm on my lunch and cut some of it short to go find out HR person because our older maintenance guy was on the breakroom watching Tiktok but thirst trap...are they naked ? Type Tiktok and he wasn't subtle about. She said she'd talk to him after his break but it turns out it's his day off. I don't think he has Internet at his house ..so he came here to watch that. And I'm going to definitely update her on that part

And I could hear him taking screenshots. Ugh .

Oh and someone used my email when they applied for some loans and checked their credit and one of the emails had a detailed report attached. I've deleted them all but it was weird.

Cryptic work posting, because I just got out of an exec presentation meeting and say this somewhere: Yes, it really would be that simple if the content teams didn't have to work in Salesforce. Yes, really.

(I HATE Salesforce. It claims to do everything, but they LIE.)

Anyone with a bunch of travel coming up want a free three month membership to Clear Plus

Yes please.

Sent over the code via FB messenger since I don’t think I have your email address.

askye, ugh. Just ugh. Good on you for doing something about it though.

Haaaaate. The absolute worst.

Well, Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra removed the DEI page from their website, and they just announced the Pops schedule for next season (much later than they usually announce it), and it's got several of the "celebrate America" type programs that Trump's NEA had requested. It does include a few Black artists, but the past few seasons have had several programs specifically focused on African-American music, and those are conspicuously missing from the new season. (The regular orchestra -- which is the same people as the Pops, just wearing different jackets, but it's treated as a separate thing -- does have a few programs like that, which they usually don't have. I'm wondering if there's something going on with moving funding money around.)

There's a Harlem Renaissance concert this weekend. I'd been meaning to buy a ticket for that -- now it looks like it might be my last chance for a while to see something like it.

Also, one of the traditions for years (I think several decades) has been Classical Roots, where the orchestra partners with local Black church choirs, dance groups, and other groups like that. That's not listed for next year at all. I commented on their Facebook page to ask if it will still be held.

That really sucks. Cincinnati Symphony has been a leader in this space.

Yes, it really would be that simple if the content teams didn't have to work in Salesforce. Yes, really.

Hard agree!! Hate Salesforce with the white hot passion of a thousand suns

My experience with Salesforce is minimal, but enough to concur.

We went to a Miami Heat v Houston Rockets game last night. A family friend plays for the Rockets so we were cheering for the opposition. They won 98 to 102. Amen had an absolutely awesome game, which was nice since so many friends and family were there. So that was cool, and I didn't get home until 1 AM, which is super party hardy for this old lady.

Both teams' colors are black and red, and I only regret not surreptitiously taking pictures of the fan outfits. Latin women, body proud, black and red leather, wow! Who knew corsets were a thing at basketball games? I mean, there were some hot men too, but the women were outstanding. So my takeaway from the game is basketball fun, Latina fans super sexy.
