To characterize a fight over the essential mission of your organizational work as a "distraction to the general employees" is to reveal yourself as someone of no particular contribution.

Use of signals is the single most important consideration in my opinion. Other drivers cannot read your mind. Using signals protects you.

I can't see how any of this makes sense. There are not a lot more eligible men than there are eligible women. Interest in relationships is not constrained in any way to "guys". I think you have an alignment problem.

Right, "at most" they are acting as Maxwell's demon. Useless.

How do you replace ZooKeeper?

> because it seems like you're just mad

On the contrary... it really seems like you are deeply aggrieved about the personal, legal habits of other persons.

> I've noticed people who like the word "cannabis" take issue with it being called avoidance language

The only person so far who's used the word "cannabis" in this conversation has been you. I believe you are tilting at windmills on the public Internet, and I seriously wonder what you have been smoking all morning.

Your whole comment feels like the talking points of a Karen who is very concerned about marijuana.

> Of course, when confronted, they say it's not addictive and they dont have a problem. As we know this is the first sign of a very serious addiction.

My eyes are rolling so hard. You convicted them on evidence of their denial?

> It won't kill you like alcohol withdrawals will or make you agitated like nicotine will. So then it must be okay right?

These strawmen are transparent and juvenile, while substance dependency of every kind is a complicated and common problem that requires far more nuance.

> One of them makes you sound like a degenerate, one of them makes you sound like you take a medication. That difference is very important in justifying addiction in the mind of an addict.

Whatever axe you're grinding, it's basically unhinged and socially degenerate in and of itself.

Near me there is a preserved section of forest (in the middle of a suburban sprawl). It connects a senior-living apartment building to a Walgreens, nothing more. It's one block wide and two blocks long, just enough forest for a winding walkway to never see the roads on either side.

When you step into the walkway you immediately feel the cool and moisture. It feels magical.

Lawns don't usually die in the summer, they go dormant. You can usually distinguish between dead grass and dormant grass by observing the color: dormant grass is yellow, while dead grass is grayish.

Texas lawns commonly use some form of bermuda grass, which goes dormant during the hot season (typically late July to late September). Some lawns will mix in a rye grass which shows bright green color during this same season to preserve the look, but obviously this compromises the growth of both types of grass.

I have been intentionally toxic to my family for years, and only recently succeeded in having them cut me out of their lives.

The "unseverable" bonds of family have caused a litany of mental and physical problems for me my entire life. It's only since my "toxic" behavior finally exhausted their fidelity that I've begun to feel like myself.

I didn't even have the attention span to unpack your first sentence.

In the fable it is not a golden goose. This is significant because killing a golden goose would result in golden flesh.

The (not golden) goose lays golden eggs. The recurring time-based nature of the eggs is the key aspect of the fable.
