Yoga with slow, gentle poses may help you wind down in the evening if that's not something you've considered.

My husband and I love Sonic when we go to the US. We will drive a reasonable distance out of our way to get it and we never regret it.

And I just saw the closest is just under 7 hours from us and 30 minutes from a family friend. We may or may not be half-jokingly planning a road trip for Sonic after 5.5 years since our last taste. Please accept all the credit!

Between my teens and early 20s, I worked there 3 times. I left on good terms to focus on other areas of life and they were always happy to have me back. I still love McDonalds as a treat! My go-to's are cheeseburgers or Big Mac's.

I've been remote since 2016. It was unofficial until 2019 when they closed a number of offices globally, including my home office, and moved those they were keeping to official remote designation. They've not asked those remote workers back but anyone that was in-office prior to COVID-19 does have to go in at least 3 days a week.

We had an incredible ravine that got destroyed for a highway that I've driven many times as an adult. It's a rare trip that I don't think back to the beautiful place where I spent countless hours of summer breaks being wild and free.

Why are you posting about the Titan sub in a thread about a Reddit community of transcribers that will be closing?

My husband and I had a similar idea but for ourselves and friends versus your purpose-built need. With a billion dollars we can do both and then some so I'll build my commune and pay for yours to exist in multiple areas globally.

You'd think if it was important to them they might try to teach their kids themselves. Or have we defaulted to we can only learn things in school already?

also loopy signatures that have 1 big letter with a scribble behind it

Why you gotta call me out like that? Haha. But seriously, I had a proper signature until I got a part time office job at 17 that required me to sign a lot of things (for packages, receipts, witness acknowledgement, etc) every day - that's on top of initialing things. I worked there 5-6 days a week before doing that same job full time for a few years and
eventually continued part-time for a few more years when I was in another career. Anyway, the point was that it was a fairly busy job and the extra few seconds my full, proper signature I had developed wasn't an option and I slowly morphed my signature into a bastard hybrid between initials and signature that has remained some 20 years later. Also, I ditched the loopy first letter.

Seems like an appropriate time to remind people we can buy Ernest coffee for all his hard work to give us kbin!

I was expecting a "shut up, bird" or two in the Reddit comments but baby dick is a classic. Thanks for linking it!
