After ten years of trying: It took having a massive panic attack, where i thought i was dying and literally couldn't think a full thought for three or more hours, and a visit to the ER, to finally be put on an antianxiety medication, tomorrow is the first day of my new life.
Literally 3 hours ago we had a safety emergency on the sales floor of our store, manager walked in casually and then started berating the employee who had a toxic chemical spilled all over his arms and face.
I have never seen someone so heartless, i can only hope HR cares more.
Canβt wait until the fourth hits so we get some new content on this site, getting bored with the 72 hours (or is it 90 days) supplies and end of world talk.
Alternate reality where Al Gore wins the presidency, 9/11 doesnβt happen, and then John Kerry runs against Al Gore for the only 100% provable tie-vote in history, leading to the first ever dual presidency, where utopia is created.

What an absolute piece of shit.
Going to sleep for a trip to Santa Fe and waking up in a hospital.
Robotaxis wonβt just kill short haul flights. Once you can sleep in them, theyβll cannibalize long routes too.
Imagine getting into your Tesla in Austin at 10 PM, make the lie flat seat/bed comfortable, and going to sleep.
While you sleep, the car drives, charges itself, and keeps going.
You wake up at 9 AM in Aspen, refreshed.
The key is perceived travel time.
A 10-hour robotaxi trip where you sleep for 8 hours may feel shorter than a 3-hour flight that requires an Uber to the airport, arriving early, security, boarding, the flight, baggage claim, and another Uber.
Autonomous cars wonβt just compete with driving.
They turn sleep into transportation.
Replacing my last three posts with a notice that ratsbane now has one notch.
I hope it was just the one, tired of the little bush campers.
OK Grok, obliterate any account that has more than 5 consecutive numbers in the handle, or has no profile picture.
