I feel that nothing is what is seems, but everything is exactly the way it is.

I could not agree more. My only real concern is exactly what way things are going to go after this

'that date, is just a guide!'

 

I mean it is, but I still follow it a lot of the time.  I can tell when the milk is no longer as fresh when the date gets closer.

 

The FDA mandates that dates be put on things because people are dumb.  Really it's a great idea and I like to add the date I bought something too so that I better know when I have to pay the ADHD tax.  That said it should just be used as a guideline.  Some things you should absolutely avoid using/eating though as they can become dangerous.

 

I think there was a site for expired medications too but I can't find it.  This may work as a guide though, but that seems like a lot of data to parse.

 

Really a lot of this is to generate more waste to get you buying replacement products sooner than needed and can be considered as just another part of planned obsolescence.

Tested for covid last night, that was negative. Did two tonight (cuz the first coulda been a false positive), and both were postive. So yeah, after three years I finally caught covid. lol 

Fever since last night. Minor cough, sore throat, and minor runny nose since today. Still have my sense of smell.

Fever seems to finally broke over night. Feel slightly warm, still within normal temp when I did a temp check this morning. Woke with a cough and stuffy/runny nose.

Face isn't bad with the poison ivy rash. Apparently there's some rash on my inner thighs. Don't ask me how, I don't know. I know I shaved last night, so maybe the razor, but the rash would be on my arms and legs (other than the tighs) as well. So it's like, how'd I get this? I did yard work Friday, but the rashes didn't appear until this morning/overnight last night.

Confused and pissed off. I was told by my head chef that I was positive with covid and he told me to come back to work Thursday (basically self isolating/staying at home for four days). My GM for the restaurant tells me I can come back to work despite still having active symptoms. She tells me she emailed hr about the company's policy is different from CDC's recommendation. "Because the CDC's recommendation is what it used to be. It changed in May when the CDC said it's not a pandemic any more."

Like I have a cough, runny/stuffy nose, and a minor fever. I'm still contagious. I should not be around people period. I did text someone I know works in the company's hr about it. I don't know about the company's policy. Should not be 1. around people 2. working with food 3. in a major airport.

    • Been on auto insurance quotes for the past 7 hours trying to  assist my niece in finding affordable coverage.  This sucks for young people in Michigan.  Then it's compounded by living in the city of Detroit. 
    • Is this @cthulhu63's doing? I remember the FB post gauging interest but I didn't realize it was big enough for Mlive to catch it.
    • ~~~~~ What angers me the most about the entire incident is that it shouldn't have even been a thing.  I take my vehicle in for service every year and they are supposed to do specific point inspections for each maintenance check.  My brake line was completely rusted through and finally gave up the goat.  When I mentioned that at the service center and also how they said I was supposed to have an undercarriage zinc wash, the first thing the rep said was, "Well, you know how the weather is here and how the rain water and salt can corrode the underside of vehicles."    Yeah, I almost lost it.  That was the reason for me having the anti-corrosion wash done!  Literally, all 3 brake lines were 100% corroded on the external with the one eaten completely through.   I told them that thanks to this, when I get my vehicle back, I'm going to be under there with my inspection mirror because now I don't trust anything.  She then goes on to tell me that I hadn't been there since September of 2022.  But a service should last longer than one month and my vehicle started slowly losing break fluid less than 6 months later with being driven half the usual time and distance due to a change in Trene's doctors being closer to the Detroit city limit.   I have always worked on my vehicles myself.  Growing up, my father was an off and on mechanic and my brother was a military mechanic, so working on vehicles is practically in my blood.  The only thing I don't do is undercarriage stuff because I do not have the equipment for it, but I have a shade-tree mechanic neighbor who is willing to help me out with that.  My dealership warranty was up in 2019, so I have no issues with handling things myself going forward.   ~~~~~ My sister's situation was caused by an accident and the last thing I need is for her to lose faith in my abilities due to someone else's inability to properly do their job because auto places generally have an unspoken rule that they can get more work and money of off female drivers because we don't understand our vehicles and need their assistance.
