UPS has a service called My Choice where you can have the package redirected to a UPS store or you can sign for the package and have it left at your door. Though I think the latter is dependent on the service that the shipper chose.

For a fee you can have it delivered to a different address.

I've used it a handful of times.

I'm sick of talking about a "living wage". I want a thriving wage.

Under the current regime it will be used to suppress discussion of all things that don't align with the Ministry of Truth

This is why it's important to have a trust that your assets are put into.

My trust is set up so that it's not beholden to any liabilities. My trustees can legally ignore any unsecured debts and leave them unpaid if I die. (Secured debts have a separate process since they are attached to tangible objects.)

They actually want people to quit. The problem is the wrong people are quitting.

Not paying people a proper wage is such a short sight view but when all you care about is the next quarter, kind of makes sense.

Eh, most people burn their coffee or get shitty coffee. Salt helps enhance the coffee profile and decrease the bitterness that comes out when coffee is over brewed.

The number of people who don't know how to properly make coffee drives me nuts.

I remember when AT&T had "unlimited" data when the original iPhone came out and severely underestimated how much data people used.

Today, every cell phone provider has an "unlimited" plan and in the fine print says "up to x GB, after which you will be throttled."

That shit should be illegal.

It was "State's rights" to own slaves but then "Federal Government Oversight" to force abolition states to return escaped slaves.

In other words:

"Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."

Library of Congress is not part of the executive branch so constitutionally speaking, they don't have new bosses unless Congress says so.

That being said, I could make the argument that DOGE is not a valid department and that all government employees should have resisted yet here we are.

This is such classic narcissism.

The most transactional man in the world sees no problem with people giving him gifts. He would never gift anything to anyone because he's a narcissist but sees it as necessary for people to give him gifts.
