I find it sad that some women think that this is all they have to offer. Their bodies. Your body WILL get old, saggy, wrinkly, whatever. You can get surgery or injections to try and prevent it, but time will always win. Men, on the other hand will always look for women like this. Married or not, there is a market for young, hot women. Men might not marry them, but they will always look or pay for it at some point in their lives.

I just remember how so many of us were saying for YEARS that he had the walk/talk/mannerisms of someone with dementia and/or Alzheimers. My mom was going through it at the same time and it was just so obvious that something was going on with him. I really look poorly upon his family for allowing him to "run the country" while going through this illness.

Probably the Challenger disaster.

I also can't help but think that there are so many people that are looking for better times on both sides of the aisle. Hearing people rising up creates this romanticization of everything, a group of people who rose up against whatever and fought back. The Heroes, the Superman, etc. I don't know. I get that we knew it would happen, because I remember hearing that people flew the flag upside down with Biden (at least I vaguely remember this)...people feel desperate I guess....so looking for that light at the end of the tunnel for some people.

About 20 years ago, I worked nights and there were several of us that would post all night long. It's just not the same anymore.

Same here.

Yeah, I don't believe you. If it came from OPM but Biden's appointee was directing it, there wouldn't be this outrage.

Emails like this don't usually come from HR directly, but it's a directive from management and HR is involved som how. HR to leadership: We are looking for ways to cut costs and provide efficiencies. We are working with ABC Consulting to help. Leadership: Okay, we will ask our employees to submit their weekly/monthly accomplishments and time spent on each. Again, MY Company does it to me and I have to do it or else the consequence model is followed. Federal employees get an email asking for it on a Saturday and everyone freaks out at the audacity.

People seem to have an issue with WHO asked for this information. Again, if it came from Biden, no one would be batting an eye. OR....if it came from someone other than Elon/Trump with the current admin, they probably wouldn't be biitching.

I am good friends with a federal employee. She got her email and said that she's tempted to "just not respond, because fock this administration." Claimed that "in four years, I'll get my job back and then get back pay for four years." I imagine that's the attitude of a lot of them; if they care so little for being employed, then okay. I guess I've been asked for YEARS to document my weekly/monthly work, document how much time I spend on certain tasks, etc. And I just do it. Who focking cares? Document it, maybe it's being used against me, maybe it's being used to find efficiencies, whatever. It's been sent to different consulting firms or third parties to hash out, and it never bothered me. If you can't put into 5 bullets what you did last week because you're being a cry baby about who asked for it...then I am not sure what to tell you. Private sector does this ALL the time....but it's Elon and "we hate him" so now we take our ball and go home? Fock having a job, right?

Then you can't say that all of these federal workers are being let go because of their political affiliation; you don't know. So I go and lose my job of 30 plus years with a large financial firm, but no one feels bad. I just need to "work harder" or "go get a new job." But these federal employees it's just.....different?

We know that they are being laid off because they didn't vote for Trump?

No outrage, they aren't federal workers. Seems like people are only outraged about federal lay offs.

Took me a minute, but I agree. After we were talking about Ironman, asked a few questions, and then he stopped replying. Probably realized he was giving TOO much info and couldn't hide anymore. Too bad Rusty is like this, I once thought he was a semi-decent person.

A 'major L' that this guy gets to keep his job for another week?

I knew peenie wouldn't be able to quit us!

they do have a new documentary about this on Netflix I haven't watched yet. But there are trailer clips of people saying that there was SO much evidence that led to him. His blood mixed with Nicole's and Ron's, more than just a "little blood" inside the Bronco, etc. I guess there was a lot that pointed directly to him. Butane the racism and tampering was introduced, it was futile.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with reminiscing about things that made you laugh. I don't dream or wish for the past, aside from the fact that my children are adults and having them as babies again just for a few minutes would be wonderful. Or that my mom (who has been on hospice for a year) could talk to me again. But I know there are so many things to be thankful for now. I hardly think you are someone that needs to lecture about being emotionally stunted, you need to read your own posts. Or go outside, take a deep breath, and touch some grass.

YES!!!!

I disagree, transsexuals and homosexuals are different, IMO. Trans = gender dysmorphia. Homosexual = sexually attracted to members of the same sex as you. Transwoman (man to woman) can still be sexually attracted to women if even they change their gender. It's not about sexual attraction to be trans, it's about you feeling like you were born the wrong gender. I have read that the LGB folks wish that the T's were never added to their alphabet. They've kind of ruined what it means to be 'gay' according to that crowd.

I wonder why this is? I am not being facetious, I am genuinely curious why it's higher. interesting.

When I was pregnant with my son (23 years ago), I had a co worker tell me to go apply for WIC (Women, Infants, and Children) benefits and to just lie about how much I made, because chances were they'd never check. On WIC, you get things like formula, diapers, cheese, milk, peanut butter, etc. at a considerable discount. Something tells me it's not difficult for people to "apply" for benefits.

YES. It was some ridiculous amount.

There was some lady on Tik Tok the other day talking about how her welfare is going WAY down because they found out she has a brand new 2024 BMW. She gets EBT/food stamps, she's on Section 8, and a few other things she mentioned that is govt assistance. So her rent will go from $60 a month to $400, her food stamps will be all but eliminated. She was P!SSED. She's also a "content creator." That's her "job" and she felt like she was being targeted. I believe in some social assistance, but if you can get a brand new luxury car and you're b!tching about your $400 rent? Fock off.

I have several friends that are like this. Blocking unnecessary people, or those that have said, "If you voted for Trump, just defriend me now." If I've been defriended, I have NO clue because I don't care. I have one family member that blocked me. I saw her at a family reunion two years ago and she acted completely disgusted by me; dirty looks and everything. If I am THAT important of a person in her life to the point that I draw out those emotions - cool.
