California seeing a sizable influx of new residents relocating from Texas

I often work in rural TX. I've had a number of Texans suggest I ought to move there, cause muh freedums. Yeah, I target shoot a little, but I'm lefty as hell. I talk about guns sometimes to deflect questions about my politics.

They are so full of themselves. They think because great grandpa was a cowboy that they inherit all his toughness. I don't know how grandpa lived, but I know Texans today live mostly in air conditioning and love shopping, huge portions, and convenience. They're fully convinced there is nowhere better on Earth. But no, I've been all over the Earth. TX sucks and I'd never move there.

It's quite likely a belief that sunscreen lotion is a bad thing that harms people. Found that one out from an old high school crush from FL. She looks like leather now.

Justice Alito Caught on Tape Discussing How Battle for America 'Can't Be Compromised'

Mark my words. These people are not just willing, but eager to unleash nuclear hellfire in the Middle East, under the ludicrous delusion that they can fulfill prophecy and force Jesus to return. They shouldn't be trusted to run fast food joints or craft supply stores, much less a superpower. It's an apocalypse cult. They've convinced themselves that they're better than everyone, but their religion spread across the globe by genocide, enslavement, and forced conversion, not by loving their neighbors. They have been trying to end the world for 2000 years.

notifications rule

I believe it was SAP Concur that my last employer used for filing expenses. Every few months it popped up a notification asking me whether or not I "loved it." I always answered "no," because fucking why would I? Then it wanted to know why not. I think that's inappropriate behavior in a professional setting, and I told it so. Regardless, it kept asking the same thing, so I asked if it wanted me to speak to HR.

Nothing ever came of it.

TLDR got sexually harassed by a corpo app.

After using ChatGPT, man swaps his salt for sodium bromide—and suffers psychosis

My dad called and told me they were putting powdered glass into regular table salt in order to slice up our internal organs, I guess.

I responded enthusiastically by suggesting that he run the experiment and dissolve an entire container of table salt into distilled water. Obviously glass doesn't dissolve in water, so he would have all the proof he needs to go public with this nefarious conspiracy.

Don't know why he hasn't mentioned it since.
