This seems like a very U.S. centric view. I live in the Netherlands, most places here are unionized. And ofcourse it doesn't hurt to change jobs every now and then, and I would never stay in a job at a place I don't like working for. But I also wouldn't change jobs just to get a raise, because I would get the raise regardless. Reasons I have quit jobs in the past were 1. a company keeping me working through an agency, 2 an emerging toxic culture, 3. Company got sold and went from being innovative to a cash cow, changing my job from engineering to an administrative position.

Taller people have higher BMI's, something to consider.
I only view the channels I'm following, and never click on anything else there. So as long as Youtube doesn't inject te AI shit in those channels, I'm good.
Reading the Wikipedia page of the game, it seems to be quite different.
Reminds me of Wireless Seattle, that must be what, 25 years ago?
Civilized in this context would mean "at an advanced state of social and cultural development" I guess? Looking at this definition, I can allready tell you I live in th most civilized part of the world, since this would be higly subjective.
Ok, than now all we have to do is decide who's civilized, Europe or America, and then we know which is right.

Not as much reading last week as the week before; finished "Record of a spaceborn few" by Becky Chambers. The book is good enough, but I like books to be more plot oriented, this series is more about people finding out how they fit in their worlds. So next book, "Dead space" by Kali Wallace. Nice and simple book, very plot driven and no need to over think it as a reader. It fit right in with my mood over the weekend, and I went through it in a breeze. I tought it was part of a series, so I started looking for the rest only to find out it is a stand alone book. I also had John Scalzi's "The consuming fire" on my e-reader and I'm almost half way through at the moment. My experience with John Scalzi is rather typical, I read "the collapsing empire" awhile ago and found it hard to get through, but this next installment in the series is hard to lay down. I had the same with the old man's war series, where I would alternate between meh (books 3 and 5) and great (1, 2, 6 and especially 4).
Has she not heard of the corkscrew thing?
