Brutal! Really sorry to hear that. Sounded like you liked it.

Thanks man. Almost 20yr long profession, and I think this is finally what’s gonna get me to switch things up.

You should maybe try Nursery work - there are companies out there that supply plants for reclamation projects.

Funny enough, one of the few gigs I applied to while waiting to hear the news from my boss was in fact a reclamation project, helping with the large dam removal here in OR. They had filled the position already tho. But that is the kind of career pivot I’d love to make!

But, I do love me some harebrained schemes! I’m all ears if you hear of anything.

Moving back to the city will be good for me - it’s where all my people and support networks are, it’s just not what I’d prefer to be doing long term.

No more ladies currently growing unfortunately…

A wildfire a few years ago hurt the business, and an ice storm this last winter sealed the deal - the company folded… About to move back to the city soon in hopes of better employment

For me in my line of work N, K and P is always the easiest. It’s always Ca and Mg causing problems

(Sidenote… It hurts that the meme isn’t in N-P-K order lol)

Nice, I’m bookmarking that one!

I got this one here a while ago after hearing lots of good things, tho admittedly haven’t gotten around to reading it just yet. It’s on my short list for next up tho

Oregonian here. There’s currently over 100 fires burning across our state. 5 of them currently considered mega-fires.

Our state-level firefighters, as well as the federal-level are seriously, seriously underpaid. If you’re the letter-to-politician-writing type, please help advocate for better pay and benefits for our firefighters

Right on, thanks for the info!

Oh damn. Was coolroms part of that too? I’ve used emuparadise and coolroms a bunch over the years. Kinda makes me want to stock up just in case

I’m OOTL, which ROM sites got shut down?

Oh shit, thanks! Didn’t realize!

I really thought that the headline had to be at least just a little hyperbolic…

Nope. It’s for real.

What the actual fuck…

The size of your flower room, as well as the amount of, and size of, your carbon filters and fans would be relevant info.

Carbon filters do have a lifespan. And their lifespan is also affected by the overall humidity in your room while they’re running. (Higher humidity reduces it…)

ineffective altruism checking in! =P

Oddisee is such an amazing lyricist

Hell yea. I got these saved for later!

I feel like you’ll probably really enjoy Charlie Parr as well, if you don’t already know him

I really enjoyed that, thank you

It really seems like my grocery store (a Kroger brand) has been doing this for a bit now.

Prices on certain things vary wildly depending on the time of the month or the day of the week. Plus, with their bullshit, incessant push for everyone to use their app and online ordering, it seems like this will be much more common moving forward.

You’re not wrong, and maybe they should have initially responded to the person who called them out. But this whole conversation could’ve turned into a dumpster fire in a number of different ways.

I believe the response given was absolutely worth commending. It showed compassion and maturity - things that are all too often lacking in internet discourse.
