Didn’t know. Felt like I wasnt seeing them until recently

Taking off the pedals and training wheels of bikes and selling them to kids.

Wish I thought of that

U.S. here. I “donate” blood regularly to Vitalant. I enjoy the way they do it. You get “points” or often something free for donating (shirts, your name in their sweepstakes to win something large, etc.). You can use the points to redeem gift cards or choose to “donate” the gift card amount back to the organization.

My thoughts: I think these organizations have more donors when they offer compensation, even small vs if they did not. I saw Red Cross offer a chance to win a PS5 once and I’m quite sure it caught some peoples attention and earned them more first time donors -> potential long-term donors.

In 2013 I left a very toxic, abusive relationship (physically, emotionally, sexually).

I’m healthy now but its been a long journey to get here. I have definitely changed as have my life. Its a big milestone that I rarely have to think about now as its been so long. But the lingering effects of trauma went on for years before I considered myself “recovered”

Same. Leprechaun, Species, and Chucky… I grew to be okay watching paranormal movies but not until late 20s

Ive cosplayed a handful of times. Maybe 4 or 5? Elektra Netflix version was most fun as someone gave me their sparing sais and I found other Netflix Daredevils at the time to pose pics with and pretend to spar.

I was Momo from My Hero Academia. A generic agent from Psychopass. The gun prop i have is fun. It flashes and talks. Jealous now though as there are some that transform. It was cool when I found other characters from the show.

Lastly, I was a terrorist from Counter Strike. I had rubber knives, grenade, sunglasses and I drew a mustache for myself!

I havent cosplayed in a while though and havent been to any conventions lately

Concur!

• If you want to get into a career, ask someone who is successful in it about it.
• The easiest way to make a great impression is to show up on time and be respectful. Costs nothing.
• I always tell people you need two of the three things to be successful in any career goals:

1. Skills
2. Formal education
3. Networking

You have two of the three youre in good position for anything

Learn how to make resumes and make great impressions with interviews. Theres a lot of resources out there. If youre fresh from college, job fairs and the writing center often have people that can review your skills in both.

I say this because just doing the resume right tells me someone at least is competent enough to learn how to format and hopefully type. I won’t even screen people who put zero effort. Last week, I got a resume where someone just left indented and listed their experience. All same font, no sections… Just a list. Smh.

TIL

I always clean my brush after use. Take off the top rinse and completely dry whole brush

As someone that often doesn’t wear makeup but keeps some on hand anyways in event of special occasions, can you point me out some $6 brands?

Oddly enough, besides meat, my dogs favorite food is kibble. Dry kibble. It took me years to train him to wait for his food… Hes much better now but he still swallows everything whole. And he loves it so much my husband uses his normal food as treats while I still try to get him that higher level rewards (I.e. cheese, nicer treats, etc).

Also, he doesn’t like wet or “fresh” dog food 🤷‍♀️

I do concur with everyone on this thread though that our dogs taste buds are significantly different than ours. Ive tried a few and it doesn’t matter what I like. Dogs are different

I think a lot of smaller local news sites have that option too?? Sometimes when I click on a news article, there is a comment section below where people can throw their 2 cents.

App accessibility will be pending which news sites…

Just saying. New RX > 2 old RX

I would highly encourage a new eye exam. No need to get glasses or order anything from your optometrist but an eye exam.

It sounds like none of the above give you that nice crisp 20/20. I find every like 2 or 3 years my eyes change a bit and that slight change in prescription sometimes makes a significant difference before and after new vs old glasses.

I wouldn’t believe so. I remember while Tesla was trying to emerge, the automotive industry (literally every car company), was trying to block their factories/plants from being built in US and from direct car buying (direct to consumer). Makes me think of the Tucker cars.

Thats a lot of work and opposition to face only to run a company to the ground. I think he was always an ass who sided whichever way for money. He really pushed ideas of being climate conscious, EVs with Tesla, appealing to those that were willing to support, purchase, invest, etc. Now that Tesla is successful I feel like he gave up “pandering” to that group of supporters he never truly aligned with and now he can be himself… Unfortunately.

I personally delete. Someone else will take that number anyways… I feel like there are so many other things to keep that remind us of whom we have lost

Also, yes, the Union rep that said you can get fired is wrong. Its super super super hard to fire people under Union. Even nurses that dont do their nursing interventions or watch Netflix day. Its truly wild what some Union nurses get away with. Pros and cons…

Nurse manager here. I’m really confused why you would need to lie? Especially if the PIP is “unenforceable”.

If you want to quit bedside just do it. Theres so many other fields of nursing out there. Honestly and genuinely speaking, you sound miserable :(

P.S. Peds pts may be compliant but overbearing parents with unrealistic expectations or peds deaths are not fun to deal with. Its not all rainbows… I would never touch nicu, PEDs, picu for that reason
