I read it as an allusion to the price of everything going up. But yes, eggs.

Really?

The first verse:

The other night, dear

As I lay sleeping

I dreamt I held you in my arms

But when I woke, dear

I was mistaken

So I hung my head and I cried

I always took it to mean the person is mourning the loss of a loved one and they dreamed they were still alive.

Also, I once heard that this song was about a horse named Sunshine. 🤷‍♂️

It's happening here in southern Louisiana. My insurance premium has been steadily increasing for the last 3-5 years.

Also, we're going through a drought which is causing a saltwater intrusion into our wetlands and wildfires in the marshes.

I quite like my Honda Accord.

I would second this.

I've been at my current company as a senior SW engineer since 2015. Mostly because it's a good company, I like the people, I have mentors, the culture is good, and it's all remote. It's for a government contractor which means I ended up getting switched to a different project every few years when a project begins to sunset. Most of my experience is with various government contractors and this is the only one that's been able to transition me to other project. I'm currently working on my 3rd major project with this company and various minor projects in between.

My annual raises have been about 3~5%, but even then I began to feel like it wasn't enough. During my last transition, I mentioned to my new boss that I felt like I wasn't being compensated enough. He asked me to name my price and I said something reasonable. He was able to give me exactly that and a few months later during the typical raise cycle I got another 5% on top.

I really think a lot of companies don't put much thought into retention once someone is brought onboard. You just get scooped up and they do the 3~5% living expenses increase but not much beyond that. If you're feeling like you're not being compensated fairly, definitely bring it up to a manager or someone in the chain of command that can do something about it.

Cannibals say clowns taste funny.

Yea, it's pretty bad here.

This is what I see when I access pornhub from my home in Louisiana without a VPN.

I'm loving it!

As an aside, I know a lot of people are using Jerboa for their mobile browsing app of choice, but I've discovered that you can just use the Lemmy progressive web app (PWA) instead and get the same experience as desktop. In Chrome, login to whatever Lemmy instance you're registered with, click the triple dot menu, and click "install app". You'll get a "Lemmy" app downloaded and added to your homescreen that looks and functions just like the website.
