      He probably wants as little drama as possible. Just like me.

      • Yeah, if he’s still working at “like 100,” he’s either passionate about the work or needs the job because someone stole his retirement. Either way, he’s not going to be pushing the boundaries.

      Prepare for every single minor tech problem he has to become your problem. You’ll spend more time helping him than doing your own job. This may or may not be downside, depending on how much you like your job.

    Dayzie for sure. What’s wrong with all natural deodorant? I also kind of hate smelling people’s non-natural deodorant, shampoo, hand lotion, laundry detergent, fabric softener…

        Natural fragrances and essential oils are less of a problem for me but end up getting me after a while. I’d prefer if people didn’t try to broadcast a fragrance at all.

        there is one technically “nAtUrAL” antiperspirant that does work, alum (any of several naturally occurring aluminum salt minerals)

        problem is they don’t work as well as synthetic aluminum chlorohydrates (the most common active ingredient in commercial antiperspirants), mainly cuz they’re not terribly soluble in water so it’s hard to get a good amount of it on your pits by just wetting the alum rock and rubbing it on (most common application method)

        as someone who hates scented anything as well as plastic packaging and increasing antiperspirant prices in the US (my two go-to brands doubled in price in the last 4 years), i’ve been nerding around with both alum rocks and the only consumer available aluminum chlorohydrate i could find

        problem is when i run out i don’t usually have time to mix up more and usually just sigh and buy some overpriced Ban Unscented Roll-On

        also remember kids, antiperspirant is NOT the same as deodorant, which ought to be called Pit Perfume because it usually doesn’t stop sweat or inhibit the growth of B.O.-causing skin bacteria.

          Pretty sure the strong smell of ‘lynx’ or ‘axe’ style spray just enhances the repulsiveness of BO stank.

          Right. Some sort of antiperspirant is the key. Broadcasting strong scents everywhere you go isn’t necessary. Fragranced products are even banned in some workplaces because so many people have sensitivities to them, and some people way overdo it since the average products are way too strong, and people wear like 10 of them at once.

    • Because it’ll be no better than Lewis. Instead of human farts you’ll smell bacteria farts. Humans have tried to mask those smells for literally thousands of years. Because many people don’t like the smell of other people’s body odor and that’s fine.

        • Or just… don’t use Reddit? Looks like it only exists because it has accessibility features that the official Reddit app doesn’t, and that’s the only reason why Reddit allows the to exist (presumably Reddit isn’t interested in chasing those users).

          Reddit is scummy, so nah.

    Aw I’d share with Hannah. I love hearing people be all excited about their life. I’m not much of a talker so I like just sitting there daydreaming while someone happily rambles on.

      Same. I love fish and I’m always self conscious when I eat it at work

      though I don’t eat much fish these days because it’s expensive and bad for the environment anyway…

          yeah, there’s a lot of debate on it. at the end of the day one person reducing consumption makes no difference, only lots of people which is hard to coordinate

          i think it would be wiser to force farming and fishery companies to stop making ecologically damaging decisions but that is also hard to do 🫠

          from a purely selfish standpoint maybe it’s better to enjoy fish while we still can, because there might not be any fish someday no matter what we (as individuals) do…
