Wonder Woman (Diana Prince) is a museum curator in Paris.

Batman (Bruce Wayne) is the CEO of Wayne Enterprises.

The Hulk (Bruce Banner) is a scientist – not sure if he’s a biologist, chemist, biochemical engineer or all of the above.

But they all have offices that they work from. You’ve got me curious now! 😃

I had trouble subscribing with your link, so I typed this out and it worked:

!albumartworkheaven@lemmy.world

My name came from a Catholic saint that was on the calendar the day I was born, along with a feminized version of my French grandfather’s name.

Family name (one character) is said/written first, then the given name (two characters for me… and I assume for most people).

Same here. My Chinese name was given to me when I was a kid upon enrollment at a [Chinese] school. Unfortunately, when my dad’s employer sent him to work in the UK we didn’t know anyone who spoke Mandarin. 王 is my given surname and quite common. My maiden name is famous in some parts of the world, not in America.

It’s not too late to change your name, you can have mine if you want.

Have you tried Bulleit Rye?

It’s cheap ($35) but quite good. I always bring a bottle to family gatherings because my SIL makes a mean Manhattan and that’s her preferred brand.

Wow! Your search engine is fast. Nice layout, simple, clean. I really like it!

So we can use your magic?

Congratulations!

Yes, you’ll definitely need a good quality ladder and:

– Set of screwdrivers. My Stanleys are over 20 years old

– Separate flathead for kitchen use only (instead of using your forks to open stuff)

– Fire extinguisher (leave one in kitchen)

– All-purpose or silicone caulk and caulk gun. (In case of emergency and if your house is old).

– Scissors

– First Aid Kit (you can make your own, I did)

– Multi-tool or Utility knife (I love my SOG)

– Flashlight (combination of battery-powered, rechargeable, heck even a tealight will do). Ideally, some form of light for each room in the house if you lose power (nothing expensive).

– Shovel and Salt before it snows (If you have pets, get the [blue] pet-friendly salt). Always buy it before it snows. Keep it in the house the night before it snows so you can dig yourself out.

– If your windows are old, read up on removable window film, magnetic window film (3M makes them also)

– 409 (they clean almost everything)

– phone number of a good electrician and plumber (my GC is awesome but she’s stateside only)

– Plunger. Don’t buy the orangey-plastic snake - they don’t work.

– I have DeWalt (and a bunch of batteries) but prefer my Makita. Black & Decker is a toy, don’t do it. Milwaukee sucks. If you’re not using power tools now, don’t buy them or wait until they go on sale.

– Surge protectors (the higher/more joules, the better). You definitely need those.

– WD-40

Canada has some very good quality wind turbines (for home use, not the gigantic ones) that you might want to consider; I hear your solar panels are pretty good, too.

Buy what you can afford; check out thrift shops, yard sales, flea markets for some tools.

Most of all, know your limitations. My house is old and I knew what I could do myself, what I would be willing to do and the rest I need for someone else to do.

Every year you’ll have more questions and we will be here for you… with answers you may or may not like.

Good luck and Enjoy!

experience inside is much better!

Yes, absolutely!
I miss the Quiet Car. For those of us who used to commute from Philly to NYC, a train ride that is anywhere from 75-90 minutes long is a blessing!

It takes me 2-1/2 hours to drive from Philly to Montclair, NJ at 80 mph. Do I care that the new Acela may not be faster? Who knows. When I sit inside and feel that comfy ride? I doubt I’ll care.

Yes, the tracks need to be updated but Acela is still faster than me driving.

“It’s gonna be okay.”

“Of course it will be okay, I’m the one who’s going to fix it!”

Have you tried DuckDuckGo browser? That’s what I use if I need to view something on YouTube. There’s Enable Duck Player in Settings, mine is set up to open a new window (no ads).

EDIT: No sign up or phone number required. My VPN is always on.

What about Session? It’s cross-platform and decentralized.

There’s also Simple X chat which is also cross-platform and foss.

You can send photos and files on both. There’s no need for email and phone to sign up. My friends and I like Session for it’s simplicity but my niece made everybody download Simple X because it’s “prettier”.

This screenshot is from July 2025 when I got hit with a paywall and was served with a ton of cookies, so I set my VPN to UK, lol.

EDIT: This was around the same time as POTUS hit UK with tariffs.

Done. Had to figure out where to go to change my profile pic – didn’t take as long as the video, lol.

Prison guard. You can’t leave work during your shift, you’re in prison.

Prostitution. My apologies if this subject is taboo. However, it is the oldest profession in the world and stood the test of time. I have a vivid imagination and I’m having trouble imagining what would happen if I’m just not attracted or aroused.

Perhaps our British friends should start wearing the Camera-Shy Hoodie?
