Yeah, we have this as well. By making the coin valuable enough so you will be punished by laziness, everyone just walks the cart back on their own. I think the US still has their system due to employment issues etc..? There has to be a logical reason for why this is still a vocation.

Easy there, Charlie. It is not over yet.

How can you possibly do everything alone? It seems you went past the breaking point a long time ago, and this just seems negligent at best, but realistically just.. exploitative.. by your employer.

It is lunch-time, and I do not feel the slightest awake yet. Oh well, at least it is election day today.

I usually get up at 07.00, mostly because I require little sleep, so if I just go to bed when tired, I desynchronize my internal body-clock. Having a set time to wake up somewhat prevents me from messing up my internal body clock and day-rhythm. Oh, and be warned, the auto-ban filter is still in place.

Well, for me it seemed to happen when I manually typed them, rather than using the button shortcut. It has not happened for some time, but... you just know that we are just one minor change away from things going haywire again. ....more importantly though, I am surprised that I am not the only one awake before 08.00 on a Saturday!

Out of curiousity, did you usually type the smiley code or use the emoji button?

You shame the memory of Kittenblob. At least use the more appropriate smilies for your funny retorts.

Well, from what I have been told, it is not over until the cat lady sings.

Not much of a day to celebrate then, truth be told.

It is not a post count booster; it is an activity booster!

I can assure you that you are not.

I assure you, if I were in a position where I had the power to get rid of my enemies, I would never send them to a gulag. No one would be subject to forced labour for the rest of their long lives.

Measured responses tend to be a far more efficient means of management than locking down (as that is absolutely impossible regardless, due to the world not being uniform). My point is that we should not let Covid-19 run free without doing anything. I am fairly sure Covid's here to stay, but we can at least do what we can to prevent avoidable deaths through simple actions and methods, rather than live in denial. One thing I hope is that I will not ever have to do a handshake, ever again. Once ending that, and focusing on washing hands thoroughly before meals, I have been free of winter colds, winter coughs or the flu. Actually staying 100% healthy through-out an entire 5,5 months of winter was amazing. I want more of that.

Do you also get the 1st of May as a holiday, or is it just Labor Day?
