You may have had a stroke and should seek medical attention.

Starting a war, forgetting your gun somewhere and only having your spare one to work with, making the payment on your medical bills, remembering if the McRib is back, worrying that the exploited people who did all the things you don't feel like doing will be deported, and forgetting to tell the President "thank you" every day as a tribute to their brilliant leadership.

And her voice. Her and Emma Stone could get me going reading War and Peace.

I have seen ants form nests in decomposing organic litter on roofs higher up than you are.

Some species of ants may travel 100m to forage, but that is rather exceptional a distance for most varieties.

My guess is some foundation ants or similar have a nice easy shot into the building and the scouts discovered your place.

It would be prudent to report it to the management, so long as you do not expect some negative outcome for you. Otherwise just keep your place clean and kill them as you see them and they should only be a problem once or twice a year.

That's nothing, a lot of kids I went to school with snorted heroin in the bathroom.

A lot of alcoholics put alcohol in inconspicuous containers, like a fast food drink cup, and go about their day like they just have a large coke. My high school banned disposable plastic water bottles because people would drink straight vodka.

If you are finned for drinking in public, you are already a problem and the discovery of drinking leads to more consequences.

So just sitting in a park and drinking beer from a steel water bottle won't get you in trouble until you start yelling slurs at the ducks.

My appreciation for snarky, smart-mouthed, tomboys is starting to make sense.

I can barely get a pair of combat boots to last a year, except for my RATs, best damn boots to kick shit in. I always blow out the sides or crack the sole where the toes flex as the sole wears slick.

I wish they still made the RATs, I would buy two pairs.

San Francisco, I am disappointed in you for not being the first.

There is a joke about being able to fit one in, but I just can't make it work.

There are, but they aren't as well documented, not that a history of safety means anything as time goes by and we learn or uncover more things(doctors used to recommend bloodletting after all). They can also go to single use vials and remove the need for preservatives at a slightly increased cost per dose.

Though the mercury is at such insignificant doses as you get with thimerosal, you get more mercury eating fish and the form of mercury in thimerosal is not well retained in the body, putting mercury in your body is scary and people are too stupid to understand the difference between methylmercury and ethylmercury or what 0.7mcg/kg per week means.

It is all connections and a box checking for the board and/or CEO.

The CEO can deflect bad outcomes on the consulting company for suggesting doing what the CEO had in mind to do, but didn't have the board's approval.

Corporate consulting is such a giant fucking grift and they are responsible for the enshitification of so much.

Why are there no employees to help you on the sales floor or at the register? The CEO wanted to hit a performance metric to maximize their bonus and brought in a consulting company to advise. The consulting company looked for low-hanging fruit, which is cutting costs in the form of payroll. The CEO dips when there is no meat left on the bone. The next CEO hires a consulting company to maximize the bonus and then you get fake sales to mask a following price increase. CEO dips and the next CEO's consultants gives the consumer a rewards program to harvest data to sell and drive sales through psychological manipulation(See Kohl's cash).

Corporate consultants are horrible people with business degrees looking to harvest marrow from a stripped corpse.

Especially because they already bought the books, so J.K. already got her money from them.

Also, who the hell is still buying Harry Potter books? I wouldn't be surprised if they had dead stock and decided to do some PR and virtue signal.
