Lol, your reply is why no one with any common sense who has seen the videos both can take you seriously.

But we’re all gonna die,
Decompose into daffodils and dandelions,
The bees will use our flowers for whatever they like,
Make the honey that our grandkids will put inside,
their morning tea, it’s the thing of life.
yawn here we go with over generalizing for the “other” when your side on the extreme takes the same action.
Ok well I AM knocking conservatives when they hang out in groups, they become incredibly toxic and violent in their beliefs and they become dangerous even to the existence of a basic apparatus of federal government (see January 6th). Stillups, they become incredibly toxic and violent in their beliefs and they become dangerous even to the existence of a basic apparatus of federal government (see January 6th).
Lol, right off the bat, like the extreme left have any respect for the apparatus of federal government. 🙄🙄 (see blm riots, where protesters in Portland attacked and caused damage to The Courthouse, The Edith Green-Wendall Wyatt Federal Building, the Gus J. Solomon U.S Courthouse, The Pioneer Courthouse, and the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement building.)
I don’t even gotta respond to anything else. Find it in one, you find it in the reflection of the other.
Sounds a lot like this place too, honestly.
Not knocking people with similar beliefs hanging out together, but it’s wild yousay that and don’t see that in lemmy.
Oof, 10 years and you still sucked? Yeah, I’ve seen it pleanty.
What a dumb take.
So, you were a shit instructor who had barely started teaching at a shit school so that must be how they all are?
Just like everything, you’re going to have a range from great to awful. You sound like you were on the awful side of things. Must suck.

I got to learn a bit of MasterCAM in school, it was fun!
Go to college for something that you can get a good job in. I have an associates and my friend has a masters. I make more than she does, and always have in our respective carriers.
Just saying “fuck the expense” is the reason she got her batchelors in art sculpting, and had to get a masters in something more practical.
Oh, that is super slow, but very, very cool. What a view of the world that most people don’t get to see!
Oh, okay, interesting. I do physical substation design, so there’s a lot of overlap there. Just right now I’m slogging through conduit details, lol
You got this! I went back to school in my mid-30s, and now 2 years after graduating, my life is immensely better. :)
Of course, I went from no degree to an associates, so a bit different in terms of degrees, but it definitely helped.
Which partif the grid?
Can I ask how your day-to-day is? Is it stressful, or with long hours?
I’ve always wanted to get into aerospace, but it’s such a tough market to get into!!
I vote all electricians be called power rangers from now on.
Do you operate those from above ground or do you operate inside of them as they move through the earth? Super interesting!
I’m a Substation Designer. I work closely with electrical and mechanical engineers to design the layouts for electricity sites that transfer high-voltage electricity to low-voltage, and low-voltage to high-voltage. You drive by a few of these sites every day most likely, as they’re a massive part of our electrical grid.
I stumbled into this job by accident, and I’m really glad I did, because I love it. :)
I do have access to like 50 engineers, at least one of them would volunteer.
When I was 6, I was in a boating accident.
My family and I were waterskiing and camping off this little island on the lake. We did it all the time, since my uncle had a speedboat.
My mom was about to take her turn, and I was sitting in the boat behind my uncles seat, facing the back to watch her ski. When my uncle tried to start the boat, it faltered. Made a rut-rut-rut noise but wouldn’t start. After try three or four, I smelled something awful, and pinched my nose. The last thing I remember is my mom asking me if I smelled something bad, and I nodded.
The engine exploded into a ball of fire and engulfed me.
The next thing I know, I’m under water and bobbing to the surface (wear your life-vests, kids). My mom is screaming and my cousin is swimming to me and drags me to shore. My uncle (just outside the blast radius) had reached into the fire to grab me and thrown me into the water.
I was… calm. I felt nothing. We had to hail a passing boat to take us off the island to get to a hospital. I remember my mom asking me if I hurt, and shaking my head.
If i looked at my arms and legs and saw what I looked like at that point, I can’t remember at all, but I was covered in third-degree burns. I was in the hospital for a while, and then was in a wheelchair for a bit while my legs were wrapped. I had to have water therapy for my burns. I do remember the oblong, black boils that developed over my burns in the months that followed. For a long period of time, I couldn’t be in the sun, and had to wear a bonnet when I went to school.
My skin healed beautifully though. I’ve only got one long-lasting scar from it on my shoulder. The doctor said that my uncle throwing me into the cold lake water is what most-likely saved my skin from being permanently damaged. I’m sure being 6 years old helped immensely, too.
I’m not really scared of them, but I do have a visceral reaction to them. Something about them makes me want to vomit. Or, maybe it’s a level of fear I don’t recognize because I go from 0 to vomit and wanting to claw my eyes out real quick.
