Sorry, maybe because I'm American, so in case our other friends are confused... Managers are below Executives in every capacity and when you 'flatten' your radial grid, they mean firing managers. They are the yessiest of the yes men in corporate america.

C-Suite = CEO, CTO, CFO, etc.

Executives = Presidents, Vice Presidents, Directors, etc.

Managers = The people who manage the workers, ie handle scheduling, duties, metrics, and having to eventually fire someone because the people above tell them to.

Workers = The people who actually know the job.

It's so cute that they put Managers above Executives. Man up and call it what it is, instead... The C-Suite

The point stands, though. TB can come from unexpected vectors and there is no traditional vaccine offered to the public. Until that happens, it doesn't make as much sense to blame tuberculosis on a state that may also be making boneheaded decisions regarding vaccines in general. Just the ones who would say no when it was offered.

I am now taking a hard look at voluntarily getting this vaccine for sure.

Reverse Trump in this photo, flip the whole thing, then call it, "Bottom Boy"

Um, I'm gonna reveal my age here and say that it's a crime the old Dragonlance fantasy series was never made into a movie. It's perfect.

The roche limit usually just refers to the effects of gravity upon a smaller object, and how it can potentially break it up in orbit. For black holes it's not really the same effect. The only thing that does affect black holes is the moment their event horizons touch, which then drags the smaller black hole into an inevitable merger of the two.

Well, at least they've got a full team for the next Mass Effect? Until they get hit in the next mass layoff, that is.

I wonder how many writers they actually keep b/c it feels like none

Little magnetic shopping list board that sticks on the fridge. Lost a really wonderful dog a few years ago and had written a list for her that included a lot of quality of life stuff for her final days.

After she passed, I just never wrote on that board again. It got packed and moved to a new house where it sits once again on the refrigerator. Time has hardened the ink on the board and it won't come off again, but I just physically can't throw it away.

It's stupid. She's been gone 4 years now. I'm just powerless xD
