Loretta @noni1959 (13017) • United States 28 Dec

I may have written about this before, but I honestly don’t remember, so I apologize if this sounds redundant. This came up again today, when my son and I went into the city and stopped for late take-out to eat back at home. We...

How are you using ai?

cuttyrish @cuttyrish (3264) • United States 28 Nov

So lately, I’ve been diving deep into using AI for pretty much everything—work, creativity, random questions at 2AM, you name it. And honestly? It's starting to feel less like a tool and more like having this super-capable friend...

celticeagle @celticeagle (189819) • Boise, Idaho 24 May 25

I keep getting an email with an article about tipping. It gives all these rules of when a tip is necessary and how much. I say BS! If the person who is doing me a service does a good job and has a good attitude, then I tip them....

TIPS

Jim Bauer @porwest (112780) • United States 12 Mar 25

I am not sure if it is actually true, or if someone just made it up, but the concept behind it, true or not, still makes perfect sense when it comes to offering someone a tip. Supposedly the word "tip" or "tips" is an acronym...

Tipping 30%?

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52150) • Staten Island, New York 11 Jan 25

Found Money for Keeps

Jim Bauer @porwest (112780) • United States 31 Jul 24

I was reading back through an old post where someone had mentioned they had found $100 while they were Swiffering. Is that even a word? I guess it can be. In any event, it reminded me of when I did pest control some years back....

It's a Push Button Day

Jim Bauer @porwest (112780) • United States 2 Jun 24

In our house we do not waste coffee. It's a rule. Every time we make a pot we make a full pot, and we use it until the pot is gone. Most of the time that still means we are making a fresh pot each day. But if there is some coffee...

Does anyone on here have a blog?

Fleur @Fleura (34935) • United Kingdom 26 Sep 23

Years ago I thought of starting a blog, but most people who write one have some sort of theme and I couldn’t think of what mine would be. A few friends started blogs about outdoorsy life, wildlife or history things, but most have...
