In case some folks don't know, the Grady School of Journalism is a popular and well respected program. At least enough that they present the Peabody Awards!
I had no idea she went through that program, and even worse (for me personally) it was when I was also in college 😓 ughh
Same here, I'm a computer engineer trying to do 20-30/week. So far the only places that will even talk to me are where I formerly worked full time.
I've had multiple people suggest that I simply agree to work full time and then just not, but I'm not sure if those folks realize how stressful that can be.
I wish you luck in your situation!
I'm right there with ya. Don't forget to make sure you set the interleaving correctly on your Winchester drive!
I had a portable talking version of battleship (Battleship Command) as a kid and it has these little planes. If I remember correctly, I think they allowed you to "see" a little bit of the opponents board and you placed them on top of your own ships?
Also the sound effects in that version were great, almost all done by human voice. The ship sinking sound was hilarious "glub glub glub"
Edit: in fact, this picture definitely looks like it's from Battleship Command!
I have no idea how I went this long without knowing The Salt Lick did all you can eat family style meal, apparently it's even at the top of the menu...
Although I'll admit my favorite parts are the mustard BBQ sauce and the hammock garden, agreed that the BBQ is meh. And having known lots of country folks, evading taxes by only taking cash sounds about right.
Interesting, interesting. We call the female lightning bugs here glow worms because they are wingless, but today I'm learning that is not the case for all species!
Also Glühwürmchen is a cute word.
I grew up calling them lightning bugs, and I'm so excited to see a thread full of people calling them the same!
I remember once opening the door to a garage (with a gravel floor), hundreds of the little guys immediately dove in to the gravel. It was... fine. I was... fine.
Conversely, I was at a snake petting zoo and they had an arachnid room. There was a big ol' scorpion there covered with it's babies taking a ride and it was honestly very cute! (This was thousands of miles from home, so that helped too.)
In summary: Scorpions... sometimes?
I am apparently not very good at identifying pinnipeds, I'm from more of a dugong kind of area 😅 This lil guy is definitely a cutie, thank you for sharing!
Don't know if it's AI, but I think it's a harbor seal? The angle is a little weird with its left hind flipper, and it almost looks like the right hind flipper is missing.
But who knows what is what in this crazy mixed up data world 😅
I believe it's referring to the end of the gold standard for the dollar, as a way to sell bitcoin.

I don't agree with the entire analysis in that post, but definitely agree with the general "wtfhappenedin1971 trying to scam you" vibe.
That was fun, thanks! Now I know another fun little trivia game, hurray 🤓
