FiskFisk33, in If the human body didn't heal itself, how'd you be doing rn?

just accounting for all mosquito bites ive ever had i’d probably have bled to death long ago

DBT,

Mosquitoes are the worst invention ever.

-All of the planets in the solar system can fit between the earth and the moon -Stoplights detect your presence with an electromagnetic field using wires and not pressure -There is a receiver above stoplights that EMS vehicles can trigger to change the light red for everyone -We left astronaut poop on the moon -The numbers on a toaster are not always in minutes -Most common mold is not dangerous when ingested or inhaled unless you are allergic -Celeste Tea was founded and made by a cult, maybe still is -Christian Science had laws passed in the majority of states in the 80s that prevented prosecution of child abuse due to religious practices -The statistical value of a human life in the US is 10 million at dollars -Jellyfish reproduce and are birthed as polyps on the ocean floor -The chiral version of the sugar molecule would taste identical to sugar but is indigestible, we have no practical ways to produce it though afaik -Only one president has failed to release his tax documents -There are multiple US presidents who were likely gay

I’ll stop there, and yes these facts do rotate through my head for no real reason, they’re just fun!

more anal shoots

OceanSoap, in If you had to restart your job at your current employer, what would you do differently?

I wouldn’t have caved and joined that Foosball tournament.

OceanSoap, in If the human body didn't heal itself, how'd you be doing rn?

I’d probably be dead from infection, and at the very least horribly disfigured. Was in a boating accident when I was 6 and had 3rd degree burns across my entire body.

raynethackery, in What prevents you from going to bed early?

I resent every moment I am not awake. It takes away time from me not being at work.

itsgroundhogdayagain, in The 2024 US Presidential race officially starts Monday, what are your predictions for Iowa?

I predict nonsense

KpntAutismus,

!remindme idk a couple of months?

Toes, in If you had to restart your job at your current employer, what would you do differently?

Quit

dingus, in If you had to restart your job at your current employer, what would you do differently?

I wouldn’t have befriended my one coworker so I wouldn’t be so upset when they left

jordanlund,

Just because they left doesn’t mean you can’t still be friends!

dingus,

It kind of does when they move across the country

jordanlund,
@jordanlund@lemmy.world avatar

That’s what the internet is for! :)

dingus,

Idk…they aren’t chronically online like I am. They lead a very busy life and probably didn’t even like me much to begin with.

@Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world avatar

I wouldn’t take the job.

People that hired me are not the people running the joint now. And the current people are pretty terrible.

Same here, the manager hiring me left before my employment started. I was a contractor that joined, so I already knew most of the team. Alas, management destroyed the fun in the job. Way to much work, no new knowledged colleagues but we got a truckload of managers to work agile.

Overthrow capitalism

Pheonixdeath, in If the human body didn't heal itself, how'd you be doing rn?

In the last year alone I pulled a siatic nerve… Burned my stomach (small scar) and broke the left most bone in my left foot in 3 places and barely dodged surgery as it is… So not great?

Gonzako, in If you had to restart your job at your current employer, what would you do differently?

I got put in a project that people overpromised and I’m getting shafted by the fact that the client wants way more than I think they’re paying for, so it’s certainly running late. I’d ask a couple months in for a bit more help.

BradleyUffner, in If the human body didn't heal itself, how'd you be doing rn?

Add immortality and you’ve got Elantris.

feedum_sneedson,

I give Brandon Sanderson a hard time for being a bit shit, but I enjoyed the premise of this book.

Travesty,

Always felt like the immortality was extraneous. Everyone gonna choose the fire after a couple months of no healing.

kent_eh, (edited ) in If you had to restart your job at your current employer, what would you do differently?

I wouldn’t start with this company if I was starting today.

This is a very different place than it was when I started.
