I have been applying for work, but this doesn't feel productive. I'm picking up a gig job to supplement my savings until I land full time work, which should also help my mental health a bit, but has a number of pitfalls, and the structure is dubious.

I'm not taking BS "protestant work ethic" drive. Humans want to do stuff that we can see benefits our community.

Final test, it seems tags is the issue for the 500 Internal Server Error.

I wanted to boost this to see if any ethnobotanists who know Ireland could help out. But the image is missing alt text.

Lost 4,000-year-old tomb rediscovered in Ireland – The History Blog
thehistoryblog.com/archives/69

"The megalithic structure known as Altóir na Gréine (the altar of the sun) was built on top of a hill outside the village of Ballyferriter, County Kerry, about 4,000 years ago. It was a wedge tomb, a funerary monument containing the cinerary remains of a family or community group but may also have been used for other ceremonial purposes."

That's what I think is behind the apparently weird statement Haley made after she finished 3rd, inferring that IA made it a 2-person contest. It explains Trump's venom toward her, too: she denied Trump and all-counties sweep. DeSantis, not so much.

Crazy seeing someone here saying they're going to try and convince their optometrist to change their glasses prescription from what it should be so they can get an Apple™ Vision®®® Pro®™©™™ with inserts for their prescription. (Because Apple™ couldn't bother designing the headset in a way so you can wear your existing glasses if the inserts can't accommodate your prescription?)
