Reply to How long is to long of a commute. by bluecommet84
When I first moved to Maine, I commuted from Bangor to Castine. It's a roughly 1-hour drive. Unless it snows. Or it was windy the night before and a tree fell on the highway. Or there were a lot of logging trucks on the road. I did this drive or four years. Yes, it is too long. Of course, the drive is beautiful, and I got through a crazy amount of audiobooks and podcasts. But I commute 20 minutes to Orono now, and can work from home pretty much whenever I want. Having all that commuting time back to be home with my wife and our newborn is worth it, and if I could do anything differently in my life it would be to arrange things so I didn't have to spend all that time just driving.

Reply to How do I (20f) ask him (21m) to not bring up his ex anymore, and could the following be a sign he’s still hung up on her? by Dizzy-Incident-4588
>When they both left for college, she broke up with him after 2 years to “focus on herself” and ended up dating another guy at her college after just 3 months.
"Focus on herself" aka the old "It's not you, it's me" routine.
>This is something my guy was hurt by because he said she thought she might’ve been talking/going out with the guy way before they broke up.
He's probably right.
>However sometimes if she comes up in conversation (another one of our friends went to high school with them) he will insult her or be like fuck her.
That's typical in the immediate aftermath, hopefully as time passes they'll stop bringing her up. And you can excuse yourself when they start talking about her.
>I’ve asked about her before and he had nothing but negative things to say, and told me about their intimate life (to be fair, I asked, so this was on me).
Correct. That's on you.
>The first time he brought her up, I defended her because it made me uncomfortable to trash talk another woman who I haven’t met and don’t know so aggressively, and I refused to agree with his negative comments.
Definitely not your place to defend her.
>Now I just let him rant or stay quiet if she is brought up. It’s gotten a lot less over the course of this relationship, but it still happens.
But you don't need to sit there and listen to him, either. Just be straightforward. "Dude, I don't want to hear about your ex." Point out how you two have limited time together anyway, so let's not waste it talking about her.
>He has however told me that the only way he can get over girls is cutting contact completely or hating them, which I feel was fair for this situation since he thinks she cheated on him.
Cutting contact is the right move, and he can hate her if he wants. But to keep talking about her he's only hurting himself. But that's his problem. Let him rant about her with his other friends, not you.
>Im not sure if this means he’s not over her or if he genuinely needs therapy/to talk this out with someone.
He's young and got dumped (from his first and only "adult" relationship), it's natural to be hurt and feel angry. I don't know if it's reached the level of needing therapy yet but, again, that's not your problem, since you're not looking for a serious relationship with him right now anyway. You should just enjoy the remaining time you have with him, for as long as it remains enjoyable. If he can't stop ranting about his ex around you, then you should cut your losses.
>And how do I hint to him that I’m not comfortable hearing about this anymore?
Again, don't hint. Say it.

I had a similar experience with the R3. Even with balancing the wire, lubed with 205g0 and dielectric grease and trying different switches just couldn't get a good spacebar sound. Switched over to Staebies with same lube and everything and it was instantly better.

I think we should allow it to be developed like that if that’s where the demand is

I'm from Oregon and to me people in NJ are more annoyed and generally upset and angry as a default mood, or maybe everyone is to some degree all over the country but It's more outwardly expressed in NJ than back in Oregon. Cashiers have no problem with showing attitude and straight showing that they hate their job, I mean, I don't blame them but it's not my fault. I am still nice to them.

Reply to comment by TableAggressive398 in ACLU suing Saucon Valley School District over district's decision not to allow After School Satan Club by LeaveThatCatAlone
You can start here:
https://thesatanictemple.com/pages/sober-faction I am a big fan of Facebook groups, and found them on there. Everyone on there is responsible for their shit, they’re very supportive and we all believe in ourselves and our ability to get sober. PM me if you wish. It took me about 28 days of being a total bitch to finally break free, it was tough, but I’ve been sober since October. I lost 25 lbs, I’m mentally way healthier than I was before and feel physically better. I truly believe that shit is poison now. Here to help if you need.

Reply to How can you tactfully warn a coworker that you know for a fact they're about to get fired? by Hrekires
Don't unless you want to join them.
If they're a friend, help them.
If they're not, stay away.
Interfering with a disciplinary process like that will just get you fired, especially so if you were wrong with your "fact".
(P.S. I have represented several colleagues-who-were-friends in official HR meetings where we were "against" our employer and I decided to get involved even when I could have just stayed out of it. But you have to be fucking careful and - like me - you have to know that you can screw them to the wall by *following the rules*, and be principled enough to say "Fuck it, I don't care if they sack me for doing this, it's the right thing to do").
