Your life, physical and then professional were both threatened. The things you mentioned aren’t little oopsies. These are well beyond normal. You describe being assaulted and abused. Those aren’t suck it up and learn situations. That isn’t a regular kind of problem. You should seek trauma counseling.

This experience predates the AI fad.

no and it’s ALL googles fault. It’s not a walled garden problem, It’s a google problem. I’m searching for specific items to buy and look for small shops with online presences. Google will NOT give me results for shops that don’t advertise with them. I can even type the name of the shop into the search. Sometimes Bing, sometimes duck duck go will give the results.

I can have the site open in one window and use another to type the description of an item I am looking at AND the name of the site I am searching on google and it’s like ‘Nope’ never heard of them. i have to type the url in to the search bar then it will return a link.

Now sponsored links pop up a plenty.

$8 buys a container of instant coffee and a single cappuccino is $6.

I’d love Starbucks everyday.I drink instant coffee, because money.

Sort of like asking with restaurants around everywhere does anyone bother to cook. It’s awesome but cup noodles will hit the spot as well.

Yes.

He paid 44bln and hasn’t even changed twitter.com yet. Don’t expect him to pay up.

No one liked it. But I only watched it because of all the memes.

Like there had to be something at least worth making fun of. Nope. It just kinda sucked till I turned it off.

Morbius It wasn’t bad enough to finish or good enough to enjoy. Never said it was Morbin time. It had Dr. Who so there was that.

Pretty fantastic

Yes.

People always judge personal waste as something they don’t enjoy. It’s fun to hate on people who enjoy things.

I have never went but the people I know who go have been going so long that their kids are bringing their kids. It sounds like a great community event where most of the point is to meet the people who go there.

The desert is usually a good place to host a mass event since it is a flat large area. By definition rain is rare in a desert.

They can help when your body is under stress,illness, dieting, moderate exercise. otherwise the don’t do much.

This is an absolutely epic article from the BBC.

Bless you for not knowing. It’s the more accurate description of what was called child porn. It stands for child sexual abuse material.

This is legit impressive. It seems there should be a gardening place for something this epic.

Depends on the plant and task. Soaker gets tons of use on dry plants to let them make deep roots.

I use just when messing with hornets.

Center to wash down squirrels when it’s over 100

Depending on where you are from. No. If you live in a place where gangs can roam the street challenging the police, unemployment is 15+% and corruption is rampant. The USA will be better.

Yes. If you come from a place with moderate laws, healthcare and representative government the USA could be worse to much worse.

Sounds like you live in an expensive pocket, like near beach or a special neighborhood.

Use google to find gas near you it lists out prices . I was just in garden grove yesterday. Gas was 4.80 to 5.20. If you are driving a sports car that needs premium gas your going to pay more to enjoy more .

I took my extended family out in garden grove , 7 people for dinner at $130 before tip to a decent sit down place. McDonalds and Taco Bell at 6-10 for a meal.

Even near Disney in Anaheim prices are better than you listed out. I can grab a full meal at Denny’s for about 12-15.

When I first moved to ca I lived in a cool community where I could afford rent. Daily life was so expensive I was riding the bus an hour to get groceries.
Now pay more in rent and less in everything else in a boring place. Moving a few miles will make a difference for you.

Where do you live to see prices like that? Gas is 4.80 or so and no fast food is $15. That maybe is a fast casual restaurant.
