First of all .. ew. I don't know who this is for honestly. Maybe it's one of those things that was used during war times that's now sold in stores because why not? Second, we have lots of Krogers in the US and they are currently trying to merge with Albertsons which would essentially create a monopoly on grocery stores. Let's all hope that doesn't go through.

I would already like to buy a 4k TV that isn't smart and have yet to find it. Please don't add AI into the mix as well :(

There is also a follow-up documentary made 20 years later.

Anyone interested in American history should watch Ken Burns Baseball. It's an excellent documentary series about baseball that's packed full of fun facts like this. One of my favorite facts I learned was that people sang the Star Spangled Banner at baseball games before it was established as our national anthem. The documentary goes through the history of baseball and how everything that has happened to the sport beautifully depicts everything that has happened in the country's history through the lens of baseball. For all the good and bad, it's a great documentary series. 10/10 highly recommend!

My company is making people come back to the office. Then they started laying loads of people off. Now one of our key initiatives for the year is to improve employee retention. Hmmmmmmmmm...

At my previous job, I had a coworker who was hired on after the office decided work from home would be permanent. Everyone in the office was originally from northern Illinois since that's where the office was, but she lived in rural Iowa in a farm with her husband. She mentioned how she really wasn't able to get a job like this previously as she would have to commute long distance to the city. And of course she and her husband can't just pack up the farm and move it closer to her work. So you're absolutely right! Work from home could very well be the thing that saves small communities that have been largely going off.

I went on a Grand Canyon rafting trip for 6 days this time last year. And yes it regularly gets up to those temps daily. It was an amazing trip, but you had to be on top of hydration as your life literally depended on it. I had a 32oz bottle and my husband had a half gallon bottle and we refilled them constantly throughout the day. Honestly most of the day was quite pleasant assuming you wore appropriate clothing and made sure to get wet in the river regularly. But in the evening, it was so hot from the rocks radiating heat that any breeze just felt like an oven. That was the worst part of the day by far, but that's also when we would make camp and have fun swimming while waiting for the sun to go down. 12/10 experience if you can keep up with drinking water.
