This is me and I feel like I’m defective or something. I can’t remember dates and locations for the life of me. That’s why I take so many photos (to help remember). My great-grandmother was demented, which doesn’t help. I mean I don’t really know, but I have this worry that I’m going down that path…

Cops at my hospital are all in overtime. They bring in inmates for psych holds/psych eval and then supervise them hands-off for the entire hospital stay. Easy money. Then the really entitled ones try to act pushy and basically want us to give the patient shots for unjustified reasons. Just so they can sit and watch movies without being bothered.

 

Didn’t see this one posted yet! Apparently shooting for a new movie, “The Invite.”

Seth Rogen and Olivia Wilde rode BART for hours Tuesday afternoon, right in the middle of rush hour. Rolling between Glen Park Station and Daly City, the Hollywood A-listers blended right in with actual passengers on their way home from work.

“I’m a regular commuter,” Rogen told The Standard as he headed down the escalator and onto a BART train.

Also popular is renting a car in CA and then driving around there, to Vegas and some other national parks (a la Grand Canyon, Yellowstone and Utah’s).

In addition to what everyone else said, I like tagging instance admins too. Only my instance admins are highlighted (red), but I like to know an admin when I see one in the wild lol.

I’ll also tag accounts that show a lot of specialized knowledge in their field of work. Like, “environmental scientist” or “airline pilot” or something like that.

But most of the time there are no tags, I’m just relying on my total upvote/downvote count towards the account to get some sense of who they are.

When that realization moment happens, it’s like flipping a switch. Like losing steam, getting past the anger. I tend to get quiet and actually listen/empathize instead of trying to win the argument. I also quiet down due to feeling ashamed of being wrong. I have no problems saying “sorry” if that’s the case.

Just keep in mind, you may have this perception because the Americans you see are happy and on vacation lol. They’re traveling to another country, which selects for confidence and curiosity.

Always nice seeing your work.

Crazy. See FDR got away with it, they would stage photos and prop him up, cover the wheelchair with a blanket. But that’s impossible now that social media is a thing.

He’s shooting Madden right now, which I’m super excited to see. It’s Nic Cage as John Madden and Christian Bale as Al Davis. Should be good.

Hmm it’s the sweetness that makes it not versatile for me. I love it in pho though!

Hope it’s allowed lol. At a random bar in The Hague, Netherlands. Noice!

 

South Korea is heading toward a demographic collapse unlike anything the world has seen before. With the lowest fertility rate ever recorded and a rapidly aging population, the country faces a future of economic decline, shrinking cities, cultural erosion, and a vanishing workforce.

By 2060, nearly half of South Koreans could be over the age of 65, and entire regions may be abandoned as the population continues to shrink.

How did South Korea reach this point? Why might it no longer be possible to reverse the trend? And what does this mean for other countries on a similar path?

A natural monument that you can walk on located in southern Iceland. The name translates to "church floor."

 

Sources: Raiders minority owner Tom Brady recently hosted Rams QB Matthew Stafford at his home in Montana, where they spent time together and went skiing. Brady has been actively trying to convince Stafford to join the Raiders, and discussions are ongoing.Several teams are interested in Stafford if the Rams decide to move him, with Las Vegas believed to be the most aggressive suitor.

I turned to scream
