Oh that is tough!! Sounds fun though

168! Should have been 170+

I guess…?? Now it’s just fun to try to learn them all. I’ve doubled my knowledge in 2 weeks!

Just google countries of the world quiz. This one is from jetpunk

A picture of results for a countries of the world quiz showing 163 or 196 countries that were named

Yep 🥵 you should see the male part 👀

I couldn’t in coastal MA that’s for sure!

But I also do a fair amount of estimating already. I quote the time, the tooling….the estimator here, he just puts it into the software and puts a price on it

They will never go for this anyway. Like, never. But I feel that. Maybe pitch the idea without the pay cut first. Hmmmm

I need to figure out how to pitch to my current boss to start training me on estimating, and moving me to a salaried remote position (let’s say $30-40k less a year) for programming and estimating so that I can think about/plan moving without worrying about finding a job

As a manufacturer, this hits home hard. I don’t get a say in what jobs my company takes. I could refuse the work and then be blacklisted in my entire area, and work my way quickly into becoming houseless. If I could choose, I would never take defense work

Some people need clarity

Deep dish still has a “thin crust” for the bottom. It is not a chewy dogh-ey bread fest. This particular one had a bit of extra “edge crust” but that’s because I chose not to trim it

Also, homemade not store bought

When I very first tried to do it (we sat with notebooks) I got about 50, maybe slightly less. Then the first time on the computer I got like 85 (with help lol). So happy I’m pretty consistently around 150 now!

It’s so fun! It’s 15 min and under the map they fill in all the countries as you type them, alphabetically and by continent. Then at the end they fill in the missing ones so you can learn them all. Or hover over the map and they will populate in the lower left corner

It’s so fun! But I’ll probably never get all 196

A week and a half ago I could name roughly 85 countries. Now I’m over 150! And a few I just forgot so should be to 160 soon!

Would you trade 3” more in height for 3” less in “length”?

I once wanted to make a documentary called “A Game of Inches” and it was just about how close we are to car accidents every day. So basically just me driving around with cameras attached to a car. I’m so insane

I’m sorry what?

Happy birthday @cubsgirl1825.bsky.social ! I hope Cecelia gets you something nice! Have a great day
