I’m not the person you asked, but I’m the same way. I do not hear sounds when I read which is one reason I don’t tend to be moved by poetry (love music and spoken word poetry though). I instead tend to have an extremely vivid imagining of the things described. I always feel that books are better than movies at least partially because the special effects in my mind cannot be touched by anything possible these days.

Excel sheets are rarely accessible to screen readers. Word documents are pretty good, but tedious if you’re just trying to like read something. PDF has the best accessibility support around (except HTML, but thats a whole other can of worms).

I was once way too sleepy to stay awake to make/have dinner. My boyfriend woke me up and fed me a sandwhich by basically putting a plate under my cheek and hand feeding me.

This is why a lot of academic papers outside of science start with a definition of used terms with citations.

This feels a little truer than OP’s take. Even if oil were renewable, the steps to transform it from crude to something usable are beyond “normal” peoples abilities to just set up in the backyard.

Honestly, MacKenzie Scott may currently be the closest thing?

I love seeing the 4 thieves vinegar collective referenced in the wild.

It also opens us up to the flip side. People love to spout off the “parenting should require a license”. The first obvious problem is what happens when someone who isn’t licensed gets pregnant/gets someone pregnant. Abortion is the only viable answer. If the government has the legal ability to make you carry a baby to term, it also has the legal ability to prevent you from carrying a baby to term.

For some yes, but for others, that’s just the punishment for the (insert derogatory term) who tempted/stole their husband.

I was a physical therapist working in skilled nursing. I had 2 weeks, but it was pooled time. So if I ever got sick, it came from there. We were “encouraged” to take PTO if our census was low to “maintain” our eligibility for our health care. We had 3 paid holidays, but we also had to negotiate within our department to work the Sunday before or the Saturday afer.

This is a position which requires a doctorate degree ($103,000 in 2014), sitting for a board exam, and a state based license. We were basically the top of the hierarchy at the facility, and that’s how we were treated. The CNA’s had a literally shit job, and made about the same pay as if they worked at McDonalds (and less than if they worked at Costco).

Panama papers proved this is most likely the most right.
