@eigenrobot Now when I go in twice a year if anyone comments on my plateful of eggs and side plate of bacon I just say I’m making up for being remote

i brownbagged it when i worked at facebook and they had multiple kitchens in my building each fully staffed and with its own rotating menu
eating out is a great way to mess up your macros for the day. harden up kids

I suppose I'll be accused of being a leftist for saying this, but working professionals shouldn’t have to brown‑bag it to succeed in a modern society. I don't mean that in the “everyone deserves a pony” sense. I mean it in the “my car doesn’t sound right” sense.

@eigenrobot Damn I can handle lunch but the single thing I miss most about being in person is the bacon and eggs when I walk in
English
honestly i also found the idea of having kitchen staff on hand to make me food repulsive
i dont like having servants. i can make my own meals, dress myself, and wipe my own ass tyvm

Is there a "credit report" expert on X?
I have a 30-day late reported on my mortgage on my credit report that is incorrect, but I am struggling to get it taken off my credit report.
Obviously, as a real estate developer and investor, my credit score and payment history is extremely important.
I have appealed to all 3 credit bureaus and provided supporting documentation, including a letter from BMO Harris bank that stated they flagged the fraud by mistake and the payment should have gone through.
I've appealed to Associated Bank (my mortgage holder) and they reviewed the issue and documentation but also denied my request.
I've spent countless hours on this and at this point am pretty pissed.
Do I just get my lawyer to start scaring people or is there a smarter way to get this resolved?

A news reporter asked Michael Jordan if he thought the ’90s Bulls could beat LeBron’s Lakers.
MJ: Yes.
Reporter: By how much?
MJ: Two or three points.
Reporter: Why so close?
MJ: Most of us are almost 60 now.

If I had a dollar for every time a team with Anthony Davis on the roster got the No. 1 pick I’d have $3. Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird it keeps happening

Man almost everything here is wrong.
-It's not even a Meta data center? There aren't any in this county.
-On water, the data center is still only partially operational and has no mechanism where it'd pollute the water. This area already had a lot of issues with brown water before the construction of the data center began. Residents reported it in summer 2024 too.
-The data center is definitely not driving up electricity bills, it generates 85% of its electricity onsite. New Jersey has brutal electricity bills in general right now.
-Air pollution in the area looks the same as it's always been, they track it pretty well and there's public data on it.
Noise and light pollution are real, but the rest of this is a mess.
Locals don't actually automatically have a good sense of what's causing their electric bills to go up or their water to turn brown. The data center lacks the mechanism to do either.

Residents in Cumberland County, New Jersey say they can’t even wash their clothes or drink their tap water because of the new META Data Centers - On resident messed up an entire load of white clothes because it came out stained because of the brown water - Multiple residents say they can no longer drink the water and must buy bottled water - 82 year old resident says she must move - 81 year old resistant also says she has to move - Another resident says “My electric and gas bill is more than my car payment” - One resident says the lights from the data center are so bright she doesn’t have to turn night lights on in her house at night - ER visits are being reported due to asthma linked to air quality Drastic increases in water pollution, air pollution, noise and light pollution

America cannot be great again until the epidemic of men in suits wearing white-soled casual shoes is extirpated.

I just love this Wolves team. They're such a monkeywrench in everyone's plans and predictions, tons of great characters, and just fearless. Been very enjoyable to have them in our lives every postseason.
