Happy cake day

Here is the organization putting it on: https://marchtogaza.net/

It seems like federation largely allows you both to have it your own way. Some instances are growth focused and others are culture focused (beehaw comes to mind).

My goal is to chip in where I can to make Lemmy a nice place. Eventually there will be another exodus of corpo socials and we will see a sudden influx.

The article has several people quoted that didn’t know the islands are french. I was attempting to play on that but my attempt clearly didn’t land well.

Shame

Some schadenfreude for France.

Now I’m walking with feet, she keeps her young in a bag.

Wow, he just made smoke. And she’s tamed a stag.

Now they invented a cure for when my stomach is sick.

And there’s math in my head, and she’s discovered the Higgs.

Don’t sit on grip tape, it ruins your clothes.

I think I was wrong originally. My current understanding is that they did deliberately disadvantage pregnant woman: https://lemmy.world/comment/17597987

Oh so I didn’t understand it correctly. Thank you for pointing it out. The difference between pregnant woman and everyone else is when the 90% pay kicks in.

So in general, people get 100% pay the first day of sick leave and 90% every day following.

They made a special carve-out for pregnant women so they get 90% on the first day.

Yeah that’s shitty to go out of your way to hurt pregnant woman.

If I understand correctly (I didn’t), everyone got the cut to 90% except woman on maternity leave and pathological pregnancy. They are upset that if a pregnant woman otherwise takes sick time, they will see the 90% pay like everyone else.

The headline made it sound like women were getting 90% pay for the entire pregnancy.

Hanging with my family and my partner’s family for a few weeks.

Not that power input and light output are exactly the same but the Las Vegas sphere is 28MW

Good point, the lights on a boat or airplane (probably not a train) are red on the left and green on the right. Not sure how international that is.

My favorite mnemonic: “We have some red port left”

Left if you are facing direction of travel = port = the red light

So “here” is close enough for your needs. “There” is too far away to be useful.

Arguably you are touching, or nearly touching, both of those things.
