This is amazing. I love the idea that a bon fire big enough could change the earth’s orbit.

I use “You Need A Budget”, but I agree that envelope budgeting is the ticket to saving for your goals and not spending frivolously

Some social scientists say there’s yet another self even beyond these masks: your true self. They say you can never really know your true self.

Bean-posting is the inside joke around Lemmy. Every once in awhile, the whole place goes ape over beans.

In addition to what others said (namely, that companies tend not to give “references” anymore, but instead give “verification”, which is where they confirm the dates of employment), if you need references, I recommend getting coworkers who liked you to write a letter of recommendation and send it directly to you for you to include with your job applications.

You can whip up a “letter of recommendation” template to send to your work friends, then just ask them not to include a date on their letter. I’ve been reusing some old letters of recommendation for years and future employers seem to appreciate that I include them in my app.

Yep, this approach exactly.

Music is art, and some songs can allow the composer to speak directly to your emotions.

Deftones rock! Hell yeah

I hope you like beans

My sister verbally attacked my spouse out of nowhere. Later during our drive home she said, “I’m so sorry you had to grow up in that environment.” I nearly cried.
