Voters kick all the Republican women out of South Carolina Senate | AP News
  • Elephants and leopards have a lot in common. Politically

  • Answered: Is there such a thing as "overqualified"?
  • Definitely. At the last corporate job I had I was told at the very beginning of the interview that I was overqualified and that the only reason I was there was because their trainer (a former coworker of mine) said they had to interview me.

    I got the job. I was thinking about quitting when they fired me because I didn't park my car on the property because I was following the rules.

    I was thinking about quitting because the place was a total mess. The first clue was during the interview they warned me they didn't have KPIs at this call center job. When I actually started working I noticed that I had no one person to report to, massive inefficiencies, I could have spent a day or two creating from scratch their much needed IVR and that after three months on the phone not one person I started with had had a review of any kind. I had 20 years of call center experience and 20 years of Linux administration and I was fighting back every urge to rearrange the furniture because this major company was a complete shit show. I was over qualified. I should have never taken the job. They should have never hired me.

    What is a product that didn't live up to its advertised claims?
  • I haven't seen the data on all but the nonstick is trash in a way that shows zero potential for their other stuff. Crap materials, uneven heating, etc. The very worst in almost every category.

  • Mr. True goes grocery shopping [Outbursts of Everett True, 1926]
  • Yeah they would be the worst possible introduction to Mr True. It's like hearing Crazy Little Thing Called Love by Queen and expecting the rest of what they do to be Rockabilly.

    www.postandcourier.com Bill banning 'prohibited concepts' in SC public schools fails. Rare loss for conservatives

    South Carolina conservatives have won numerous education policy victories. But one of their biggest priorities failed to pass on the final day of the 2024 session.

    What an unfortunate thing to happen on free dozen eggs night.

  • I love the use of Molly Ringwald for the picture. The person who in all their roles wouldn't be on onlyfans because each character was hyper concerned about being proper.

  • Mr. True goes grocery shopping [Outbursts of Everett True, 1926]
  • I'm really enjoying these. They show that he isn't just about beating anybody up but he actually has a code that he lives by. If he beats up everyone, he's just 1980s Heathcliff. By offering these counter examples, we see a much more complex person.

  • Tractor Supply slashes its DEI and climate goals after a right-wing pressure campaign
  • I made the 33 mile trek to Agri Supply today for new pants now that I can't take the 5 mile trek to Tractor Supply. I can get most of my farm supplies from other places* but chicks and medications will be harder to source.

    • I mostly do that already. But I have a local feed and seed half a mile away. But clothing was something that TS was better for.
  • How embarrassing.
  • It's amazing. I highly recommend it. 5-11 Tactical occasionally offers a very light weight utility kilt at a really decent price. Utilikilts makes a much heavier one that I like too. Both are high quality materials that last forever.

  • How embarrassing.
  • Where a skirt, like real man. No one will care about your knees.

    Call it a kilt if it makes you feel better. As a person with seven kilts I have no problem correcting people to tell them that's a skirt if it makes things awkward.

  • Anon meets his gf's parents
  • Dad doesn't like losing the illusion of power. He thinks it's perfectly fine to threaten someone but is a hypocrite the moment he met with equal force. So they tried gaslighting and getting defensive and blaming the person that they tried to threaten.

    The Spread Between New and Existing Home Prices is at Record High of Approximately $68,000
  • 40 was enough 84 years ago when it was built. We never really had a problem unless a lot of things were on and we tried to use the oven because it would take 40 minutes to preheat.

    We upgraded the panel, replaced every outlet with GFCI outlets because none of them were grounded. We added a new sub panel in the garage, removed a fire hazard sub panel that was for the water heater. We added a new line and sub panel in a shed. So it was way more than just an upgrade.

  • 4 year ruled Lemmy meme to put things into perspective
  • I keep meaning to talk to Peter Gallagher about why he does that but I haven't had a chance. I have a feeling. He just thinks that it needs a cat. Though I do think the helmets add something.

  • Some days it'll be like that, take 2
  • I didn't know this was a thing. I've never lost a single spoke. But then I buy cheap stuff that isn't hyper engineered to the tightest specs.

  • 4 year ruled Lemmy meme to put things into perspective
  • I'm constantly surprised at how many people upvote my Heathcliff without Heathcliff edits. It's the most derivative project I've ever done and that anyone pays attention is kinda amazing.

  • The ‘weirdo progressive’ son of the Oath Keepers founder running for office in Montana
  • There is no way the incumbents weren't going to win. All it does is show the incumbents that they aren't as secure as they think.

  • How heterosexual couples met in the US
  • The good news is that there is another single gay man out there for you. Several hundred to thousands depending on your area. Single straight men don't have that going for them so you have the advantage here.

    Go through all your hobbies. Find every meetup related to them within an hour of your location. Attend them. Have fun doing what you are doing. Maybe you meet someone, maybe you don't, maybe you meet people that help you meet people. Either way you are out and doing the things you like and that's better for your mental health. It's win-win.

  • Tinycliff redraw.

    Tinycliff takes the existing comic for the day and shrinks Heathcliff. In this case they actually redrew today's comic from scratch and turned the ham car into ham skates.

    New community, a dedicated space for Heathcliff edits and Heathcliff originals.

    Heathcliff

    If you aren't familiar with this project here are the basics:

    I remove Heathcliff from each day's Heathcliff comic. In most cases this preserves their absurdist, dada, anti-joke vibe because his presence is frequently irrelevant to the joke even though he is the titular character.

    Every day except Sunday. On those days I add him to something he wasn't in.

    This isn't Garfield Minus Garfield. Those edits become introspective instead of more or the same level of surreal. Those were done selectively versus this project being daily. The edits I do are to show that Heathcliff is often irrelevant to the joke/anti-joke absurdism that is modern Heathcliff. I will also be posting edits by others on the Heathcliff editor community that aren't on Lemmy.

    Heathcliff without Heathcliff furever home.

    New group. I will try to include other Heathcliff editors content as it is available.
