There is nothing honorable here. This code is best avoided. We are not proud of what we have done.

I had to look up what this was (I’m from the Midwest). It sounds incredible and I felt my arteries hardening up just looking at the picture! I can’t wait to try it!

This is not a general answer to your question, but many times if I go to the original manufacturers website they will tell me where I can find their products locally. Failing that you could bite the bullet and call the manufacturer. They should have a distribution database that can answer your question. I’m going to watch this thread to see if someone has a real answer eventually.

You had a moment of clarity where your true Self was able to be present and witness the good in the world. This is huge and you should know that a random internet stranger is proud of you for noticing. It is the first step to starting to heal your own inner parts who are still carrying that trauma from decades ago. The next step is to try to bring that enlightenment and understanding inside yourself. Congratulations on your new wisdom!

Quite possibly! I’m much more confident that I’ve driven by this one than I am about the I75 part.

This is definitely in Ohio on I75, North of Cinci. I’m only sad that Touchdown Jesus burned down!

Now I need to rewatch that whole show just to hear Drummer and Dawes speak. Their accents are the best!

No problem! I recommend the books, “No Bad Parts”, and, “You Are the One You’ve Been Waiting For”, both by Richard Schwartz. The first is about IFS therapy generally. The second is about relationships specifically.

In the world of Internal Family Systems therapy, detaching means unburdening your trauma parts which results in a version of you which is closer to your authentic SELF and is much more capable of meaningful connection and love. Any “need” on your end is a part which is seeking something that it lacked at some point in your development and unburdening that part by learning to provide that need internally rather than seeking it externally allows you to make authentic connections with others without asking them to be something specific for your parts. This allows them to also be authentic and the relationship to be healthier overall.

Is it federated and open source? If not, I’ll pass.

This isn’t a meme I can enjoy frequently…

I’m pretty sure preserves have actual chunks of fruit and jam is made from puree. Jelly is just made from fruit juice.

Huh… Ok. I subscribed and am going to try these later.

Ooh! Which one? I’m now excited on your behalf!

Great minds, as they say! 😁 Once you read one of those, send me a message and let me know how you like it!

I highly recommend anything by Becky Chambers. Her Monk and Robot series is the definition of cozy fiction and the space series is also very low stakes, but engaging. I would also recommend the fantasy books, Legends and Lattés, about an orc who stops adventuring to open a coffee shop, and the prequel, Bookshops and Bonedust, which should actually be read after Legends.

Thanks for this! This is how I’m going to refer to the reddit incident from now on!

This is true, but on a personal level I have no idea how to do the calculus for, “My work is killing people, but it would have been worse if it hadn’t.” I think the show “The Good Place” got it right and it is just too interconnected and complicated to actually derive an answer as to whether an action is net negative or positive. That said, if I had to place money on a given action being negative, working for an arms manufacturer would be one I’d be fairly comfortable betting on.

I think this question boils down to this: Do your actions have a net positive or a net negative affect on the world? Does working at this company in some way offset the harm that the company is doing downstream? In this case I have a hard time coming up with a reasonable way in which this might be the case. Paying you and your family to have stuff doesn’t offset causing actual death and physical harm.

Yeah… This one hurts to agree with. I’m going to go rethink my life now…
