re: women and men tested on empathy
Posted by McLemore on 9/27/26 at 6:27 am to Auburn1968
This is why women were [designed or evolved or both, doesn’t change the analysis] to nurture and care for the family and not make unpleasant decisions regarding enemies and criminals etc.
We want those traits when raising kids and maintaining the household .
Not when meting out justice to the person who has a bad hormone trip and kills her kids.

What's interesting is Netflix has lost almost half its value in the last year. Stock is down over 40% the last 12 months.
Came to post this. Oof. I owned it in 2005 and sold it for a small gain thinking I was smart. Haven’t owned it since.

re: Something to consider when advising young people to go into trade work?

So, be good at your job.
There are recipes for success in this. Some combo of being good at (and willing to truly master) your trade. Find a mentor. Not just “trade school.” Use AI and other tech to help in that regard.
Master the business and marketing side and network.
Document and run your business correctly with accountant and lawyer. This is another area where AI can eliminate a lot of busy work and keep those costs down.
Learn hiring and management skills that include being a non f-head tech or office type.
Find a niche trade with a significant barrier to entry, both skill and capital-wise.
Learn about financing and responsible/profitable use of debt and other investors (I’d stick w loans).
Someone with half a brain who’s more hands on, blue collar, country or just handy and good at figuring out physical shite can learn the business stuff and have an advantage over a desk jockey skinny triple pump caramel extra frothy latte sipper or tech geek who’s trying to be blue collar and skillful at a trade.
You can tell I’ve been thinking about this (mainly for my kids).
There are also some creative stackable skills and businesses. Hospitality. Property management. Agriculture.
Been doing that since my first office job 30 years ago. Leave lights off at home.
It’s even worse now with shitty LED lighting.

Our Tesla drove my kids and me past a couple gas stations with high gas prices this am on the way to school. I bitched for my fellow man.

If your fiancé is only happy with that expensive of a ring, you should not marry her. I just spent $5k for a very nice ring.
This is an example of why the placement of “only” is important. I would have placed it after the “happy” ideally, but definitely not after the “with.”

Yeah. Not in my neck of the woods. I was trying to figure out what all the rage was over these drive-thru coffee shops (Seven Brew) that blast awful music and give away squish toys. I knew it couldn’t be just that. Shonug, it’s basically a sugar bomb joint. I assume one can actually get a regular cup of coffee. But apparently people go there for the coffee-flavored sugar.
I am not seeing lots of evidence that the GLPs have hit Upstate SC (outside of yuppie Greenville areas).
But the OP’a point stands: it’s a boodbath out there for a lot of restaurants.

re: What was your final straw or main reason you left Louisiana?

Atlanta offered 2X starting salary. Moved to Montana 4 years later for all the reasons one might leave Atlanta (most of which apply to Louisiana).
