I feel seen

I have never needed a drying rack in my life. On the very rare occasion I can’t just dry something and put it away, I leave it sitting on a towel to dry. When I am done I wash the towel and the counter again becomes empty. I am not kidding when I say I am an empty counter extremist.

That’s not what your mom told me.

The immediately obvious way is that you don’t need a fucking scaffolding around your sink for any of this. Put the knives on magnets like a normal person. Dry your dishes and put them away like an adult, you aren’t in college anymore, have some fucking dignity. Put the fruit literally anywhere else. That leaves the soap, which can just sit on the fucking counter. It’s not going to damage anything in an earthquake. It doesn’t need to be caged.

Counters should be flat, clean and empty of single purpose appliances or extraneous errata. This is the recipe for positive mental health.

No, this is Patrick

Actually this is an abomination and I hate it

Woah, exactly 69%

As an engineer this is extremely offensive. MATLAB is for fucking tryhards.

Anything I have not published should be lost forever.

I do not want anybody to have any access to any of my online presence after I am dead. I want that shit nuked hard. I legitimately cannot believe there is any other thought on this.

Yeah I guess I just assumed that the process for delivering a normal package would involve going to the mail room or front desk instead of reading the door code from a sticky note publicly posted on the outside of the building. That’s how it has worked at every building I’ve lived for packages which don’t require a signature.

If it doesn’t require a signature then why wouldn’t they just leave it?

Ok, now imagine that you’ve left “signature required” packages like this before and the person reported them stolen or not delivered to collect on the insurance. How do you think that would make you feel as a delivery driver. Would you ever do it again?
