    Are there dish racks that are made for corner sinks?

    I get search results that aren't what I'm looking for, so maybe I'm just describing it wrong.

    A proper dish rack? Amazon has a vertical one for corner sinks HERE. A lot of other results just have a dinky little sponge holder that fits in the corner.

    Yesterday's bad news has been weighing heavily on my mind today, I had an assignment today and I had to redo it a few times because my mind kept wandering.

    And the bad news is that I'm furloughed for the rest of the week so I can't go to work to take my mind off the bad news, thankfully I'm taking care of my bf's cat so I'm going to play with her a lot the coming days

    Decided on counting how many calories are in my food, as I try and lose weight.

    I can understand wanting their privacy, but I really think in a situation like this, it would have been better to just say what was going on, rather than leaving everybody wondering, and letting all of the conspiracy theories start.
    He has gotten in trouble for inappropriate behavior, so his personality might not be too far off from how he looks.
    Damn, I think I might need to see if I can find any vegan Philly Cheestakes anywhere.

    Damn you movies....... Why you make me tear up?

    Watched the Guardians Of The Galaxy 3 yesterday evening and damn it that ending scene had me tearing up with them all dancing and then Rocked howls, Peter visits his Grandfather.... Finally got around to seeing the final volume

    When I used to work in a neighborhood with a Subway nearby, I went there all the time. When there used to be a Jamba Juice near where I lived, I went there all the time. Several years have passed and holy cow the prices have gone up a lot!

    I hadn't been to a Subway in about a year--finally went a month or so ago. HOLY COW, their prices have gone up. And to add insult to injury, they ask for tips on the keypad before you can move to the payment screen. For standing there and making a sandwich that costs more than a pizza. UGH.

    $15 footlong advertisement just doesn't have the same ring to it.

    Two things about my work day today:

    - A customer bought something called "Liquid Death". And it's just fucking WATER! What the fresh hell is a phrase like that doing on a container of SPRING WATER? It should be weapons-grade whiskey with a name like that!

    - Secret Shoppers are a form of entrapment.

    How is a secret shopper a form of entrapment? Are they inducing you to do something that you wouldn't ordinarily do?

    Also known as drowning.

    Also, you can overhydrate.

    lowkey, just how lucky people are to have grown up (into their adult years) pre-social media

    Well I grew up on the 70s and 80s so went through the whole home computer revolution in that period and had a few machines of the period.

    More recently I was an instagram and facebook person for many years and towards the end of last year I killed all my accounts. I had just come to that place where I feel it's a big distraction and it's designed to distract you. I can't understand how on the train to town some mornings when I have to go there for things you see almost everyone just staring into their phones. It's depressing.

    In 2007, a woman died of water intoxication after participating in a water-drinking contest held by a Sacramento radio station.

    Easier than socializing. People are scary.
