Preach. I work for a small manufacturing and production company. The pay rate is $16/hr, they don’t offer health insurance, they have paid holidays, they offer 1 week paid vacation after 1 year and 2 weeks after 3 years. They’re having trouble hiring people. They’ve resorted to reaching out to former employees and asking current workers if they could reach out to friends or family.
Edit: The location is South Florida, so $16/hr isn’t much here. I live with my parents so it’s good enough for me.
When I was younger, gaming was all I did as it was my only hobby and I didn’t have many friends. I’d play the same 5-6 games since my catalog was small and my folk weren’t keen to buy more. I didn’t care much about graphics, performance, or length. I was also more of a completionist, searched for collectables, completed challenges and time trials, and completed side quests. Nowadays, I have a larger gaming library. I own hundreds of games on Steam, but I’ve hardly played a handful of them. Over time I’ve realized that I play games for killing time more than anything else. I’ve become more conscious of how I’m spending my free time and now I spend my free time doing other things.
I should have clarified. She wants to retrieve her avocados that have fallen over the other community’s side.
Here’s a picture of the fence and hedge.
Here’s a picture of our tree.
Using things outside of their intended purposes. I live in a gated community with my folks. Our house borders an apartment complex community, the border is a fence followed by a hedge in our backyard. We have several fruit trees in our backyard including avocados and mangoes. During fruiting season, avocados will drop and fall over the fence. My mom uses a pvc pipe with a kitchen knife taped to one end to use as a spear to retrieve avocados over the fence on the other community’s side. 5+ kitchen knives have been broken by doing this. I recently bought a 30ft fruit picker to collect fruit before they drop, so hopefully that helps to alleviate the problem.

I do hope to stay, but if I were to leave, I’d just stop using social media as a whole or use it very seldomly.
I just looked it up. There sure were. Florida tornadoes damage homes, businesses and cars on both coasts
Florida, US. We’re facing multiple crises at once; an affordability crisis, an environmental crisis, and a political crisis. Homeowners insurance rates are going up with many companies leaving the state. Car insurance rates are increasing. Rent prices, housing prices, and mortgage rates are increasing. Our state is facing multiple environmental issues such as deforestation, pollution, and invasive species. Climate change will greatly impact our state, but our governor thinks it’s woke.
Fellow Floridian here. I appreciate what I’ve learned in school, but it feels like they were preparing us for an ideal world that never existed. Things are especially bleak here in Florida with the affordability crisis, the environmental crisis, and the political crisis.
Same. I’ve been struggling with math ever since elementary school. I’ve flunked algebra in middle school and high school. Geometry was even worse for me.
My hair for example.
Fellow Floridian here. I hope we can get someone better after DeSantis’ term limit is up. We live in one of the most climate change prone regions and a region where environmental changes mean a great deal.
I was born in NYC, but I raised in Florida, South Florida to be precise. Throughout my 20+ years of living here, things have just gotten worse; the affordability crisis, the political crisis, and the environmental crisis.
I know some hate this term, but class reductionism is a very apt descriptor for their take.
The general population is more educated now than in the past, but education alone is not what makes one an intellectual, or rather a good intellectual. Having intellectual virtues what makes one a good intellectual, imo. These virtues include intellectual humility, intellectual courage, intellectual curiosity, intellectual honesty, and intellectual responsibility.
Floridian here. My mom currently has Citizenship Insurance. Her rates will increase by about 11.5% by the end of the year.
