Thought about a pt job at cofair, but ffs, $12/hr is NOT the flex they think it is, lol. I realize pt + not too stressful aren't going to grab me $20/hr, but dang, it's 2026 - gas is creeping slowly up to $5 a gal. Is it even going to be worth me wasting gas to get to an employer where I'll be clearing maybe $200/wk at best if even getting 20 hrs a week? Some places are even going at $8-$8.50??? Dang, I realize Erie is supposed to be a LCOL (relative to what? LA, NYC, Chicago??) but c'mon, let's do better employers. I already have a full-time job but inflation is stretching that salary thin these days.

Be prepared for some Earth geography changes after June 2027.

Logged into my gurgle earth pro (the stand alone app) after being out of the country and didn't take my laptop. Wanted to show a coworker a place I had visited and was greeted with a lovely "We will be ending support for yada, yada, yada June something 2027 blah, blah, blah...", so I'm not sure when this update was announced.

Some say it's because gurgle Earth Pro cannot be monetized, but the desktop browser one can? IDK? Maybe?? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Or maybe something big is coming in 2027/2028?

As someone who personally thinks South america looks way WAY, WAY too far right and the Panama Canal was NOT vertical but more sideways (left to right...NOT UP and DOWN), and the time zones are all off in South America (like, EST/ NYC would line up with RIO de Janeiro Brazil area, NOT frucking Columbia!), I don't know what to think.
