Using olive oil for sunbathing sounds like some sort of slow oven roast recipe.

"If yor employees are trying to help you, let them." Sounds like common sense, but it seems like MBAs aren't being taught common sense...

I always hated that female attire showed more skin than male attire. It made me so self-conscious as a teenager.

Also known as "It's really leather, I promise."

Memes only matter if you're 14, unfortunately. Based on the number of comments and users, I'd say lemmyworld is the default.

Heck yeah! https://www.theguardian.com/education/2017/jun/22/teenage-boys-wear-skirts-to-school-protest-no-shorts-uniform-policy?

Oh it was.

I've tried these before. It works but only in the short term. Ultimately as you said, healthy dieting habits are the way to go, and shakes don't teach you that.

Good.

this isn't news!

It is very useful for furniture and car seats and things like that. Waterproof and easy to maintain without absorbing too much scents or liquids from your body.

Thank you. I tried to make it short and interesting. I've got more stories, maybe I should share those too.

Apple's philosophy has always been to make things as easy as possible for users, but only if the users agree to pay through the nose. That's fine, but they also actively stop anyone from trying to do anything outside the limited number of actions they consider acceptable. It's a good thing the EU is trying to stop that.

Good for you. Some of these board members are retirees who try and get a sense of power from policing rules unnecessarily. I hope I have better things to do with my time when I get old.

Thank you, you're too kind.

This is really just tragic.

This seems to be a general societal problem rather than a generational problem. And yes, it's because of echo chambers.

When I was younger, people who were batshit crazy would have their craziest instincts checked by people around them. Now, they go online and find other batshit crazy people.

I haven't told this story before, but I wouldn't be surprised if someone else had a similar experience. Hospitality has its fair share of nightmares.

That is always a good strategy. Eventually some people realise what a fool they're making of themselves. Others get even angrier the nicer you get, sometimes to the point where they can't function properly.

How did you find out that this is happening?

Thank you for reading it.

Well oceangate is now toast.

Regardless of whether the people on board are found, they're going to be facing expensive lawsuits from both the billionaires' estates.

Why would a teacher ban students from going to the bathroom? That's a normal bodily function. What do they expect the kid to do?

You are a true gem!

Well, Threads is at least aiming to do that and integrate with Mastodon, but the group mind has decided that this is bad.

I'm not part of that group mind, but I'm cynical that they will federate. From a business standpoint it doesn't benefit them, so I'm betting it's just a buzzword they're using.

Ah, the classic tale of "Manager calls employee's bluff, loses and panics". Always makes for a good story.

We used to look up to our teachers as role models. It is sad what the education system has become.

This is very useful and should be built into every instance.

Oh darling I have stories about male teachers not understanding how periods work that will make you cringe!

How do I do this?

If only everyone thought like you. I don't mind being treated like I'm invisible, some folks are just busy or tired. But some folks actively spend time and energy trying to be rude.

Why not edibles?

Thank you. I don't usually write such long posts so this means a lot.

Thank you

It degrades even if you don't watch it? Interesting.

Some people are just twisted.

The next month or so will be the true test. Monthly stats up till now look good, but that's because there was an active push factor (most of the reddit exodus happened in the last month). There will probably be a slow decline over the next month as people who signed up lose interest. The steepness of the decline will determine lemmy's future.

But the fact that a lot of editors fight about such issues means that it ends up being somewhat neutral, no?

What happened with beehaw? Beehaw is another server, right?
